Presentation:

The director has come up with a rather unusual subject and true to its originality, he has been good with his narration and remarkable with his presentation. Full marks go to the screenplay for being executed magnificently and the script that was written so well with the twists and turns. Dialogues are worthy, music has been par excellence and there are atleast three songs that will haunt for the coming time. Cinematography again was mesmerizing and the lighting effects were dazzling. Editing was crisp and to the core. Costumes and locations were well chosen and created enough visual appeal. Coming to the cast, Asin came out with an exemplary performance and showed her true mettle. Jiah was hot and sexy though covered completely and the actress in her is seen. Pradeep Rawat was evil personified and he showed his dark side to the fullest potential. The real show stealer however was Aamir Khan who came in with an award winning performance and though his lines were just a few, it was his body language and expressions that stole the show.

Conclusion:

Though it has been believed to be the remake of the foreign film 'Memento', the director has been wise enough to just take a leaf or two but create his own story and fill it with the required elements of suspense and twists. While the first half of the film goes about with a past and gets it to the present with equal ease, the second half takes you back to the past again and culminates into a spellbinding and shocking climax. Though the length is high, the pace of the film keeps the audience glued to their seat. Technically and content wise, the film happens to be an amazing venture and it has success written all over it, however comparison might arise with the original when the southern audience see it since they have already seen the original. This could well be a blockbuster.
