17 Sep
Summary
- A young girl's disappearance and subsequent murder sparks a police investigation.
- Four suspects are killed in a police encounter, raising questions of foul play.
- Kareena Kapoor leads an internal inquiry into the controversial encounter.
A disturbing incident begins with the disappearance of a young girl, Ragini, whose burnt body is later discovered. The ensuing investigation by DCP Raman Kumar leads to the swift arrest of four men. However, before they can face trial, the accused are shot dead by police, who claim they attempted to escape and fired first.
This controversial encounter sparks national debate, leading to the formation of an Internal Vigilance Unit headed by DCP Ajooni Kohli, portrayed by Kareena Kapoor Khan. Ajooni arrives in Suryapur to investigate the events impartially, determined to uncover the truth behind the killings and ascertain the guilt of DCP Raman and his team.
The narrative, inspired by real-life incidents, attempts to create a captivating tale with dramatic moments. While the screenplay is engaging, it becomes confusing in places and lacks a strong climax, ending abruptly. Performances from Kareena Kapoor Khan and Prithviraj Sukumaran are highlighted as strong points, though the film struggles with pacing in its second half.
