Siddharth The Prisoner - Notepad

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

Plot Summary

Siddharth, a once-famous author is just out of jail. He wishes to reboot his life slowly, gradually. Only to find himself in possession of a huge sum of money in exchange for a story he has written presumably about his life in prison.

What Worked

• The play of power between Asim, Amin, and Mohan.
• The attitude of the police towards a writer.
• The promo kept coming to me and it made me curious about the movie even while I was watching it.
• The kid smoking in the background.
• People playing Goddess Laxmi (the Goddess of wealth) in the foreground and the same wealth creating havoc in the lives of all people involved in the background.
• Is honesty actually stupidity?

What did not

• The shots of VT station in the beginning? Why were they there?
• The religious references. Didn't make much sense and sort-of distracted from the point.
