🎬 MovieFinder's Take
Tigmanshu Dhulia's film is a scorching indictment of a system that creates its own monsters. Irrfan Khan delivers a masterclass in tragic transformation, his performance a quiet storm of dignity, rage, and devastating resignation.
What lingers after the final frame is the bitter irony of a champion who could outrun everyone but the corruption of his own world. It's a raw, unsentimental portrait of a man racing towards his own destruction. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Tigmanshu Dhulia
Best Watched
Dust-choked plains, the oppressive sun over ravines, and the tense silence before the storm.
