"A Wednesday" - A movie about the *real* common man!!

Its been real long time, since I have written something on my blog. But now finally, I could not resist myself from writing something on this movie.

A really good movie, which describes the frustration of the common man. A common man (here common man means "we all") has always been neglected and taken for granted and most ironically has always been considered the stupidest fellow on this earth. The people (read people with authority, and therefore they are not common man) have started taking common man so granted that today you do whatever to the common man he will tolerate it. May it be violence, may it be bomb-blast may it be theft may it be anything else unethical, unsocial ....

Anyways, enough. I just got carried away by my own frustration (as I am also a common man). Now, coming back to the movie plot. The plot is very simple. Naseeruddin Shah (the common man) calls Anupam Kher (Police Commissioner of Mumbai) and tells him that he has planted bombs in Mumbai at 5 different places and he wants some 4 terrorists to be handed over to him. After all the drama it comes out that he wanted those terrorists not for releasing them but to kill them.

Needless to say that Naseeruddin Shah and Anupam Kher have done exceptionally well. Some dialogues in the movie are really good. As a summary, a must watch movie if you want to see some meaningful movie. I would rate it 4/5.
