"ek rukaa hua faisla"
"ek ruka hua faisla", a 1985 hindi movie. I saw it today and found it amazing. So, i thought i will post a small blog on it.
Its a movie shot in a single room, and has 13 characters. The story goes like this: a panel of jury members(12 members, the 13th character is the chaukidar) have collected in a room to decide wheather a boy who has killed his father is guilty or not? Untill a decision is reached no one can go out of the locked room, cant meet anyone else, and cant make or attend phone calls. A final decision is reached only when all the 12 members agree on one decision. Added to all that if they all cant agree on a single decision they will never be able to come out the room.
All the members are from different backgrounds. All the witnesses have proved that the boy is guilty, and the case is very strong against him. Initially, all agree that the boy is guilty, except our hero(i dont remember his name)...just because he was not convinced completely that the boy has killed his father. So, the discussion starts.....with amazing turns every moment. As you would have guessed by now what happened in the end, yes, our hero convinces everyone that the boy is not guilty....and the story ends.
I found this movie very interesting because it has shown that all the decisions we make about others are highly affected by our own good or bad experiences....and so were the jury's. When i saw it ...it was like i am watching a GD....how the hero changes all other minds by making them contradict themselves....it was great!
All the charactes are very strong, had captured their personal backgrounds effectively. Most importantly....you will never feel bored while watching it...as every moment something new and interesting builds up. A movie worth watching for all the old hindi movie buff's.
As usual i ended up writing a long blog though i thought to write it small.
enjoy!!
