Black Friday (2004)

The best part about this film is, it put the Bombay Bomb Blasts in perspective for me. Shot like a docu-drama, the film is taut in the first half and then, loses it a wee bit in the second half. Maybe the director, Anurag Kashyap, had too much to say and didn’t know how to put it. There are some goof ups, but I guess the intentions were honourable.


The acting is good (Kay Kay Menon, Pavan Malhotra and Aditya Srivastava). And all characters get equal importance. Perhaps the reason lies in the fact that there is no central character in the film. The music by Indian Ocean is fantastic (Badshah in Jail). My IMDb rating: 7
