Maharathi - Notepad

Maharathi

quick review: There’s no way this cast can disappoint in serious drama. But drama disappointed coz it takes its time to build & thrillers can’t drag

This page has additional observations, other than the ones noted in the main review.

Plot Summary

A scheming wife (Neha Dhupia) wants her husband (Naseeruddin Shah) dead. She finds a partner to help her with this.

What Worked

  • The way in which characters observe others’ expressions.
  • The key hole shot – very nicely taken.

What did not

Note: This section simply lists the things that I did not like in this movie. This is not the overall impression about this movie. Please read the full review here

  • How come such a big household doesn’t have servants?
  • A police constable comes to pick the driver up when they find his employer’s dead body.
  • The song during the end credits.

Makarand:

Hi,

I have read the review here and also in the newspapers. This one sounds suspiciously like it is inspired by the James Hadley Chase book "There is always a price tag". This one was published in 1956. I think that there is also a french movie that is loosely based on this novel.. strange that none of the 3 reviews i read, the cast forced me to fnd out more about the movie, mentioned this one... thought i should...

There's a difference between a film-noir and a thriller.
