Talvar Preview

Talvar releases tomorrow in theaters and stars Irrfan Khan, NeerajKabi and Konkana Sen Sharma in lead roles and is directed by MeghnaGulzar and written by Vishal Bhardwaj. 

What’s It About? (Plot)

‘Talvar’ is a film based on ‘AarushiTalwar Murder Case’ which is one of the most controversially popular cases ever in India. A 14-year old girl named ShrutiTandon is found dead one morning by her parents (NeerajKabi and Konkana Sen Sharma) and after investigations and interrogations, the police holds the father responsible for the murder. However, there is a whole other side to this story which the investigating officer Ashwin Kumar (Irrfan Khan) brings to notice on further investigations. But the question lies here is whether the father is guilty or not and if not, who is to blame?

Who’s The Star? (Cast)

Irrfan Khan

Irrfan Khan looks phenomenal once again as the investing officer and so does Konkana but real show-stealers here just might be NeerajKabi and Atul Kumar as although fantastic, they are less known by masses. 

Who Are The People Behind? (Crew)

The film is directed by MeghnaGulzar, the daughter of the great poet/writer/lyricist/director Gulzar and stars veteran actors like Irrfan Khan, NeerajKabi, Konkana Sen Sharma and Atul Kumar. Vishal Bhardwaj has not only produced the movie but also penned down the script and composed the music for this film with lyrics by Gulzar. 

Will I Get To Groove? (Music)

The music by Vishal Bhardwaj looks phenomenon, although there won’t be any dance numbers as such. It appeals more the mood of the film!

What’s New? What’s Different?

Although we haven’t witnessed a lot of good films this year but crime-thrillers and mysteries has been the silver lining so far. Films like Baby, Detective Byomkesh Bakshy, Rahasya and Drishyam have not only brought back the missing genre into Bollywood again but also had very engaging storylines. And as far as the promos go, ‘Talvar’ is certainly going to join this league. The movie looks rich in terms of writing as well.
