Good music and funny scenes showing what media would do for publicity, like showing sponsors during a public hanging or doing a live stream of a bomb diffusion while interviewing the bomb expert on site. The story further involves a man who is being accused of being a terrorist after shooting a politician on stage at a public meeting. The main characters Ajay and Ria, who until then were only concerned about their career as reporters, quickly get entangled in a world of politics and corruption. They are the only ones knowing that the terrorist is a father who avenged his daughters brutal rape and killing by said politician and they want to show the public a tape with him confessing it. The main antagonists are the prime minister and his deputy who want to prevent it under all circumstances. Thus a wild hunt begins in order to find the tape and show it to the public before the man it put to death. Altough the man has accepted his faith, the people of india storm the public hanging place and rescue him after seeing his confession last minute on live TV.
Two things stand out: Self justice of the people, who have no trust in the judicial system and the man being portrayed as innocent. He may not be a terrorist, but he killed a human, that is something he needs to be held accountable for, even if it's just a prison sentence. The people freeing him and declaring him innocent don't make much sense. Throughout the film he is said to be a simple man and incapable, he weeps to his wife before his hanging, as if he doesn't stand up for what he did for his daughter and it almost seems he thinks it was a mistake shooting the politician after all. So it is very unclear who has the moral high ground here. It seems no one is in the right after all. The only thing that can be said is that the death sentence may be too barbaric, but then the question is how to rehabilitate the man and bring him back to society? So yeah he should have owned up to his mistake and do some time behind bars. That's all from me. Also the film was a little long-winded and the last hour could have been saved. Otherwise it was entertaining.
