This movie might be a little hard to grasp for some people, but one thing is for certain - This movie is on a whole new philosophical level. It, more than effectively, presents how much of the life the upper class urban India lives is a make up, a farce. Behind the huge cars and the high spending life-styles of the few haves in rich urban India lies a story untold - a story of many problems, unique to this strata of the Indian Society.
The movie's backdrop shows a young Xen witnessing his parents death in absolute silence to a freak accident in a recording studio. Since that day, Xen's life plunges into silence. He watches the TV muted and his windows are always shut. But he has a substantial gift - He can read the minds of people. OK most people. He just cannot get thru to the mind of one girl whom he eventually falls in love with. He helps out everyone who he determines to be in serious problems (Most of whom are his clients).
Xen is completely taken by Nikita because she is the only one who seems to not have a farcical make up to her personality. In an interesting twist, he discovers that she has an incestuous father played by Boman Irani and murders him.
This movie forces you to think, and to me that's what a really hard hitting movie should do. Kudos to the whole gang and to Rahul Bose for churning out a truly hard-hitting movie.
