Movie Review: 'Shor Se Shuruaat'

Each story, though different, deals with human emotions, but they are bound by a common theme - "Shor" or noise. And every film has the distinct flavour of its mentor. The film starts rolling with "Azad". Directed by Rahul V Chittella and mentored by Mira Nair, it is a layered drama that is intensely narrated in a non-linear fashion. It is the tautly told story of a father-son relationship which also unravels the trials and tribulations of a principled man, who reluctantly becomes a columnist, writing under the pseudonym - Azad. It is the back and forth narrative that gets a bit confusing at times. Atul Kulkarni as Vinod Durge and Sakshi Tanwar as his Muslim wife Zainab are an extension of themselves. And the character who essays their son Sameer, is competent.
