Admirable attempt to make such a movie.

Very nicely made thriller on a very important problem of the society.

I am in full support of the cause.

Admire the guts of the producer to make a movie like this.

Great job you all..

Yami's career changing/best performance

For the time being, let's forget about "A Wednesday " despite both films having the same theme of a rogue man giving a social message at the end after creating a ruckus. Reason is , that film was as a whole a really smart slick tensed thriller. Thursday is not a smart film as a whole but definitely has smart elements in it in parts. Let me put out the goods and bads in points:-

GOOD:-

1. Yami Gautam Dhar! Has to be her career changing and best performance. Just like how Alia had surprised audience with her performance in Raazi when Noone expected much from her, Yami too has given an unexpectedly pyscho performance, completely different from her Fair n lovely image she carried. She nails her dialogue delivery. She makes her conversations tense. She was born to play this role.

2. Addition of nursery rhymes in the background as a battle or tense scene would take place is a slick move.

3. Atul Kulkarni returns back with a bang! Terrific performance that further elevates the tension in this film. He basically is similar to the role which Jimmy Shergill played in Wednesday.

4. The twist at the end. Many won't be able to predict it. Seems like Behzad Khambatta is a genius when it comes to revealing twists just like he did in his previous film Blank. Just that the film gives absolutely no hint as to what that twist is , makes viewers watch till the end.

5. Quite an engrossing screenplay although I felt Wednesday had a more tense and engrossing screenplay.

NEGATIVES:-

1. Unnecessarily added a media angle that gives it a bit of Dhamaka/Terror Live feeling at one point.

2. The responses on social media shown on screen seemed cringy especially that poll thing which yami created.

3. Poor acting by support cast (I mean people standing in public or the media men) they looked cringy and a wasted Neha Dhupia.

4. Poor portrayal of the PM.

These are pretty ingnorable negatives cuz the overall product is good enough to make you like it. Behzad Khambatta needs to just polish his work a little more and he could well be the next neeraj Pandey as I see this film is a much better product than his previous work "Blank".

A great watch on a social cause

First of all hats off to Yami Gautam for pulling this off.... Acting and suspense build up is pretty good... After a long time saw such a thriller movie with a social cause... A must watch in my opinion.
