My Wife's Murder is a fantastic thriller film. All the actors do a great job. My hat goes off to everyone, even the child actors.
Anil Kapoor is just amazing as Ravi. He wears his role like a glove. He's very versatile as an actor and it shows. From his glasses to his clothes to his smoking, and especially his mannerisms; everything he does simply breathes more life into Ravi. he breathes life in to Ravi as a moment of anger turns to accidental murder. The look of horror on his face as he sees her lying there. Oh that was fantastic. Everything he does, from cleaning the mess, to hiding the body, it was just like any of us would have done or thought to do. He made the common man come to life on screen.
Suchitra Krishnamoorthi is great. She's a damn good dead body, but she really makes the nagging wife stand up properly, rather than be a cardboard two dimensional character.
Boman Irani is great. His mannerisms make Tejpal live on screen.
The kids were great. Really great. They're not whiny or cutesy or over-smart like a lot of kid stars are. The only annoying thing was when the little girl was crying/wheezing at the end of the film. The boy who plays Karan (also in Parineeta as a young Saifu) was fantastic. Just when his constant questions (why are we running? where are you going? etc) got monotonous, he changes to "No I won't go. You're a liar" It was SO GOOD. :D Ram Gopal Verma makes this a great film. While I would have liked the sound effects (Ka Thump) to be a bit softer, it was great. The suspense was incredible, especially when Karan looks for his cricket bat, and when Ravi has a bad dream (that scared the heck out of me when she pops up out of the water like that).
