Ashok Mehta Visuals P. Ltd.'s MOKSHA, cinematographed-directed by Ashok Mehta, is a confusing film. For, the maker has no clue as to what he actually wants to convey. At best, one can describe it as a highly complicated, two-and-a-half hour ad film showcasing the talent of actor Arjun Rampal.
There are several problems with the film. To start with, the plot of the film is so absurd that it is hard to digest. What complicate things are the half-a-dozen flashbacks in the narrative, which could've easily been evaded.
Besides, the screenplay has several abstract scenes, like Manisha's dream sequence, which, though stylishly shot, will not be enjoyed by a regular cinegoer.
In an effort to make a 'different' film, director Ashok Mehta has opted for a screenplay that makes you wonder whether you are watching an art film or a commercial flick.
