I went into this movie having half knowledge about the jessica lal murder case....but after watching d movie i will claim it to b a real eye opener for the common man !! it shows hw strong d politicians are and wat all de can do to keep demselves in d 'khurchi' and save d ass of der children frm watever criminal acts de commit !! the instances in d movie took me back to one of my friends speech on power and poilitics and found out hw true he was !! but if we people do stand united and fight against dis devils den justice will be served !!
movie starts off really well and straight to d point...the incidents hv been properly covered and properly sequenced...1st half is real catchy but in 2nd half d movie drags a bit but u do get emotional towards d climax...strong performances frm both vidya balan and rani mukherjee...seeing rani after a long time on d large screen but she didnt disappoint...d linkup to d rang de basanti scene was brilliant !!

It's interesting how the narrative ties the crime to Delhi's arrogance and abuse of power where every conversation starts with, "Janta nahi main kaun hun?" It is always about the people in power !!
Well it also shows the responsibility of the Media….its duty is not only to make the world aware abt various frauds n scams n corrupt ministers but also to safeguard d people of the nation and help in claimin justice for the innocent people….
One dialogue which i liked was “Someone with a pistol in his hand, power in his head, decided that a life was cheaper than a glass of drink”...it explains everything wat d curent scenario is !!
The narration is gripping, the music score uplifting, the screenplay tight enough to allow for very few slippages..
Overall, a brilliant movie and my heart goes out for Jessica lal and her fly for d struggle in achieving justice !!!
I will give it 8/10 and 10/10 for d justice !!!
Truth will always prevail no matter how big u are !!
