Well, quite frankly by now the whole Bollywood fraternity is well acquainted with Director Sudhir Mishra. After producing classics with the likes of Is Raat Ki Subah Nahin, Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi, Traffic Signal, the ace director is back with Yeh Saali Zindagi.
Talking about Sudhir Mishra, not many know the fact that Sudhir was the screenwriter of the cult classic comedy Jaane bhi Do Yaaro. The two time national award winner director has yet one more time given the masses exactly what they were waiting for. Yeh Saali Zindagi is basically a twisted romantic thriller film starring Irrfan Khan, Arunoday Singh, Chitrangda Singh and Aditi rao Hydari. The movie hit the theatres on the 4th of February 2011.
The movie gained a lot of attraction when the promos were out. There are numerous characters, sub- plots, voice-overs, flash-backs, which keeps you engrossed in the movie and intrigues more and more interest by the moment. The story kick starts with Arun (played by Irrfan Khan) and Kuldeep (played by Arunoday Singh), two gangsters who commit the biggest gaffe. They get their love life entangled with their illegal felony. When love and fun mixes up with life and gun hell breaks loose and thus emerges a guns and roses love story wherein everyone is trapped in a deceitful game of, love and violence.
So what exactly does the trick for this film? Frankly, it’s the killer script and some awe-inspiring dialogues that do the trick. The film gives you nostalgic sensation as if you are watching a Quentin Tarantino movie. The dialogues are wicked but at the same time leave an impact on the character as well as on your mind. Excellent demonstration of thug life in detail is something that we expect from a director of the caliber of Sudhir Mishra. He leaves no stones unturned when it comes to his characters in the film. Once you are done watching the movie you will definitely recollect all the characters in the film along with their traits in the film.
It takes some time to have a handle on what exactly is happening as the director introduces his numerous characters and their relevant tracks. But it's the intricacy that makes the film out of the ordinary and charming. Sudhir accurately handles the romantic tracks and the thrilling portions. Although there's a lot of cuss words in the film but it’s the scripts demand and it gels quite well with the goes with the local milieu.
Arunoday is someone people might not know as his previous film Aisha didn’t do well at the box office. Yes, he played a cameo in Aisha but the role was at ease an unmemorable attempt, but what surprises is Arunoday under the guidance of Sudhir Mishra has done a terrific job. The young, robust, charming actor has done total justice to his character which he plays of a tough gangster in the film. Irrfan Khan who plays a charter accountant in the film gets full marks for his role. We all know what a class act he is. His expressions, dialogues, mannerism, make this film worth a watch. Chitrangda Singh and Aditi Rao Hydari look beautiful on screen. Chitrangda has already worked with Sudhir Mishra before and has done a commendable job earlier too. She is really soaring up the ladder, It aint long when we see this stunning dusky actress contest the top spot in the actress category.
On the whole Yeh Saali Zindagi is a rough n tough material, guns n roses love story with violence. Bollywood seriously needs more of movies of such kind. Do yourself a favor and watch it.
