One of the best Indian films of 2016. I had started watching it without any expectation but got hooked onto it.India doesn't make films like these anymore. I had seen the director's first film Teenkahon earlier. This one is a far superior film in terms of craft and storytelling. The use of black screen, the monotonous pace of the film, the two possible endings all have a touch of a master storyteller. Could have been a little shorter but overall 10 out of 10.
