Realistic tale on Bombay Blasts
25 July 2014
Warning: Spoilers
ANurag Kashyap is a rare find to bollywood, his every film has been mostly contrioversial but yet somehow had something different to tell BLACK Friday was banned in India and released 2 years later in 2007 The film is based on real life incidents regarding the bomb blast in 1993. It is told in an episodic fashion and keeps going back and forte and is well handled, The film may seem documentary like but makes a great impact, there are scenes which shock you, while Badshah's story does have emotional moments, the film shows us what went behind the bomb blast.

Direction is superb Music is good, the song Bandey is simply superb Camera-work is topnotch, the film tries to recreate the look of 1993 and is well handled though certain goof ups too are there.

The film has rare talents explode Aditya Shrivastav one of the finest talents though who hardly gets focus in films, gets a meaty role and he delivers and how! Simply mindblowing, his expressions convey a lot and so does his dialogue Kaykay Menon is splendid as Rakesh Maria, Kishore Kadam is fab, Nawzuddin Siddiqui has a brief role and he is good, Divyendru Bhatacharya is good in a small role,Pawan Malhotra is topnotch in his role,Vijay Maurya is topnotch as Dawood and resembles him well,though his portions look carricatured,rest are all good
