![]() ![]() You wish for Surjan’s and his wife’s reconcilement. Reema has taken care to make a human drama rather than just a hi-jinks whodunit. He meets a prostitute Rosie (Kareena Kapoor) who acts as his informer and helps him crack the case. He can’t reconcile with his child’s death and as a result is drifting apart from his wife Roshni (Rani Mukerji). ![]() Superstar Armaan Kapoor (Vivan Bhatena) meets with an accident in the wee hours of night and newly transferred inspector Surjan Singh Shekhawat (Aamir Khan) is made in charge of the high profile case. Rationalists may baulk at the supernatural elements but at the end of the day it’s a film and a little poetic leeway is justified. There are enough red herrings to keep a convention of Agatha Christie fans happy. The film hooks you from first shot onwards and refuses to let go. Kudos to Reema and Zoya Akhtar, who have written the screenplay and the story. You sort of get involved in their stories without meaning to. ![]() It’s like watching a story unfolding in your neighbourhood. It’s rarer still where actors leave their stardom behind and behave like normal people, have normal conversations, have normal reactions, normal emotions. It’s rare to see a film where everything falls into place. Cast: Aamir Khan, Rani Mukerji, Kareena Kapoor and Nawazuddin Siddiqui
