“Baaz ne chuze pe hamla kiya… kahaani sachchi lagti hai lekin achchi nahi lagti, Baaz pe palat war hua… kahaani sachchi nahi lagti… lekin khuda kasam… bohot achi lagti hai.” – Madaari

Irrfan Khan has surely entertained his audience once again with his amazing acting skills, for Madaari is  another example of a milestone on the road towards hardcore acting.

Nirmal Kumar (Irrfan Khan) an electrical engineer, who earns his living by installing wifi(s) at houses and previously described himself as an ideal voter, one day comes across a situation where he finds his child crushed under a bridge that fell on hundreds including his son due to its faulty construction.

This heart breaking situation becomes a turning point in Nirmal’s life where he finally decides to avenge his son’s death by exposing all the corrupt people involved in the bridge’s construction.

From the official teaser itself it was clear that Irrfan was going to kidnap the son of the Chief Minister to take revenge of his son’s death.

But this film had something more to offer to its audience.

Revenge is not the only content in the film, it also showcases corruption, it builds a sweet relationship between the kid and Irrfan Khan.

This rollercoaster journey is quite interesting because the protagonist in the film is constantly moving from one place to another, meeting new people and hiding from some people in the crowd. Thus, leaving no space for a drag in the film.

The dialogue “100 crore logon ki tarah dikhta hun… kaise dhundoge??” surely will give you some Goosebumps. An intelligent kidnapper for a very emotional reason is the USP of the film, keeping the audience together till the end of the film.

The cinematography could have been much better for some of the powerful scenes were kept too simple, maybe the director wanted to keep it simple, but I think the impact on the viewer would have been much stronger if the simplicity was avoided in certain scenes.

Jimmy Shergill had a great screen presence and could easily attract the audience's attention towards him.

Go and watch MADAARI for its content, powerful performance and a heartwarming weekend experience.
