Of late, lot of my posts have been about good movies that i happened to watch. This post is no exception. True, i'm watching a lot of movies these days - good ones.

A wednesday - is the latest in that list. I had not heard of this movie until recently, when it was in the news - for plans of remaking it in tamil. Good acting by Naseerudhin shah and Anupam kher. Nothing short of a contest between the two, in terms of acting. Shah comes out top.

Certainly not another run of the mill bollywood story, where you have 30 women dancing in the background with the male and the female lead romancing shamelessly. There are no songs in this movie, for that matter. A bold attempt in these times of negligence, terrorism & immature media. The director deserves credit for opening up on the social issues and thrashing the media which fuels the fire from within.

There is a scene where the police need some professional help in tracing a call, one of them suggests bringing in a hacker. Anupam kher is surprised to see a young college droupout in his teens, in the hall as a hacker and raises his concerns about the boy handling the complicated telecom systems. 

The guy without batting an eye-lid, says that he's completely aware of those systems and calls them out dated. And when anupam kher asks if he knows what he's doing, the guy replies "Sir, i'm a drop-out by choice".    

Would recommend this movie to anyone who likes serious, thought provoking cinema.

Go watch it !!
