    Not your run-of-the-mill Bollywood action movie
    Illegal immigration is a hot topic at the moment, and this excellent movie provides an insight into the trials and tribulations of people seeking their fortune in the Indian diaspora.

    Barkha Madan is superb as the protagonist. Not only is she very watchable, but she conveys the emotion and desperation of someone entering a country illegally via dubious people traffickers.

    The interplay between the narrative and the backstory worked well, and I particularly liked how the back story rewound further as the movie progressed.

    On the level of an out-and-out thriller it worked well too and had me on the edge of my seat.
