5. A Wednesday.

One helluva thrilling ride is ‘A Wednesday’. Whilst too many people think out of the box, not all click. Many of those fall under the ‘wicked’ category. This one is poles apart.

In recent times, I haven’t witnessed such a brilliant combination of pen (script) and cam (cinematography / direction). Pandey believes in serious business which is palpable. Khan does a great work by his radiant camera moves. He has captured the world’s best city in his own spectacular style.

On screen, each character has justified the role offered. Needless to say, Shah outshines everyone. He effortlessly gets into the character. Kher has delivered an immaculate performance too. Although there is just a 30 second F2F scene between Shah and Kher, their chemistry in entire movie (through voice) is simply startling. Shergill does a good work. Thanks to Action master Shyam Kaushal for the same. Bashir excels too. Saxena, Dhabi, Shaw and Pandit give apt justice to their character.

All in all, a technically sound 105 minute songless edge-of-the-seat flick ‘A Wednesday’ is a must watch.

My Verdict – 8.5/10.
