Haider (2014)

Haider: Directed by Vishal Bhardwaj. With Tabu, Shahid Kapoor, Shraddha Kapoor, Kay Kay Menon. A young man returns to Kashmir after his father’s disappearance to confront his uncle, whom he suspects of playing a role in his father’s fate.

“Khanu0026#39;s death is a tragedy, but at least it led me to this absolute knock-out. A faithfully complex modern rendering of Hamlet, exploring the terrifying psychology of vengeance, guilt u0026amp; forgiveness. However, that description doesnu0026#39;t do justice to how urgent the film is. Kapoor, whou0026#39;s like an Indian Tom Hardy, gives a lead performance for the ages, commanding every moment heu0026#39;s on screen, a screen filled with strikingly crisp u0026amp; harrowing visuals.”
