Storyline
Vijay Salgaonkar runs a cable TV network in a remote and hilly village
of Goa. He lives a happy life with his wife Nandini and two daughters. A
4th grade dropout & an orphan, Vijay has worked his way towards
success with his sheer hard-work & street smartness in order to
provide for his family who mean the world to him. A man of few means
& needs; Vijay believes life is to be lived simplistically - his
wife, while she loves him devoutly, wants Vijay's thrifty & miserly
behavior to end and wants the world for her family. If there's one thing
that Vijay cannot live without, it is his passion for watching films.
Such is his 'filmy' obsession that he doesn't mind staying up all night
at his office binging on TV movies! In a bizarre turn of events; a
teenage boy goes missing; he is the son of a headstrong &
no-nonsense cop; IG Meera Deshmukh and the Salgaonkar family is the
prime suspect! Will a humble & middle class man, be able to protect
his family from oppression of the powerful? How ... Written by
Dhruvi Dokania.

DRISHYAM::
Meaning by it-'seeing is believing', a wonderful crime cum family drama
cum thriller; so spine chilling keeping you adherent to the chair
totally not relaxed, we feel that as if we are the part of the disturbed
family. Great involving director, great story, told so nicely, very
very interesting, superb editing and wonderful role played by the total
cast. Ajay Devgn after long time in so balanced underacting(Totally not
Singham type);but a most responsible struggling hard-worker family man,
who is ready to anything for his family. Shreya Saran; who is most
glamorous heroine from South( remember Shivaji- the
boss-Rajnikanth-Shankar?) has done role of typical Indian housewife.Tanu
is role of brutal and tough cop and her husband; who is a big
businessman-role played by total underacting and balanced work by our
marvelous actor RajatKapoor- all steal the show. We have shortage of
such spine chilling suspense crime thrillers in Bollywood as last was
'Wednesday'. In Hollywood Alfred Hichckok has given so many
spine-chilling thrillers and I do recollect Edward Fox's 'The day of the
jackal' and Bruce Willis+Rachard Gere in 'Jackal .'The executive
decision'- was also such spine chilling thriller and we do recollect
'Taken-1,2,3,' and 'Unknown etc. The year 2015 has been so luck for the
cinema viewers that we have received so marvelous and wonderful movies
throughout the year and this is one of them. A great family drama cum
thriller cum suspense movie cum crime movie, filled the stuff of police
brutality, innocent child acting, burning problems faced regularly by
the teenager daughter and their parents-we are reading of news papers
and seeing in all medias-mms scandal, blackmailing, etc. This movie
tackles so many our social problems in so nice way to digest easily and
provoke the thoughts and succeeds to win the sympathy of the audience.10
star or more. A must watch family drama cum thriller cum spine-chilling
suspense movie. Very brilliant movie. For me its better than The
Shawshank Redemption
