Sukhwinder Singh

This film centres its plot around a major historical tragedy that unfolds through a series of stories as told through the perspective of a blend of characters. The film is anchored by the profoundly inspirational Naseeruddin Shah and features excellent art direction and deeply moving themes.

A slick crime drama, debutant filmmaker Eeshwar Nivas’s Shool offers a sharp insight into the horrifying politician-criminal nexus of hinterland India. Manoj Bajpayee delivers a restrained performance as the honest police officer struggling within an incredibly corrupt system.
