It is heartening and encouraging to see women centric films doing well in Bollywood - Kahaani, English Vinglish, Queen and now Mardaani adding extra charm to the genre.
Mardaani tells the true story of drug racket and child trafficking which is very much existing in current India. An orphan goes missing from NGO doubting Crime Branch officer Shivani Shivaji Roy and investigate the case which involves a cat-mouse game between Shivani and the mafia kingpin.
From the director of Parineeta, Pradeep Sarkar is in a great form. After strings of flops, he comes back with a bang. Hats off to him for creating niche drama with well-written screenplay that will keep glued on to the screen till the end. Cinematography is outstanding. Background score gels well with the mood of the film. Editing adds crispiness to the pace. Mardaani belongs to queen of hearts - Rani Mukherjee. The supremely talented actress will prove the naysayers that she could come back and deliver a solid performance. She is mind blowing with her punches and fiery dialogues. Tahir Raj Bhasin will surprise you as mafia kingpin.
Mardaani has everything going in its favor - Brilliant direction, Strong performances. Highly recommended. Excellent 4/5
