Phew! what a movie. Haven't seen a more hard-hitting movie in years! i've felt some of the frustration myself that Prabhakar feels, and it's chilling to know insanity might have only been a few steps away.

There are a many reviews on the internet that seem to rationally analyse the story as to whether the director was justified in his veiws, the protagonist with the killings or if happenings such as these are possible at all. i feel there is no point in rational, intellectual arguments over "right" and "wrong" of the specifics. Truth is, alienation in society is growing . There are more and more people falling out onto the streets feeling lonely and lost. It only gets worse if you are soft and idealistic and don't relate to a thing around you. Throw in poverty, inequality and the struggle to survive. Its not very difficult to fall off the edge from there.. And very soon, it might not just be individuals doing so, but entire communities :-(

This is a story we ignore at our own peril.
