The Aamir director Rajkumar Gupta has done it again by creating a thrilling mix of reality and drama in this movie. While the storyline of the film was a extensively publicised murder case, so far the film is successful in keeping the audiences sticked to their seats.
No One Killed Jessica is based on the very fascinating story of the Jessica Lall murder case, one that confined the communal conscience of India at a point in time and galvanised a latent middle-class into taking action.
A young model shot dead as she rejected to serve up a powerful politician’s son a drink at a party. The murderer gets away as of his relations, although when a forceful reporter takes it upon herself to resolve the case, things change.
Vidya Balan plays Sabrina, Jessica’s sister, who find out soon enough that fighting against a crooked system is of no use, even although over 300 people witnessed her sister’s murder.
Star reporter Meera Gaity (Rani Mukherjee), who originally doesn’t think the case is worth her time, takes it upon herself to break the case, when a lower court release all charged in the case.
Her investigative reporting tremble the system forcing public complaints and re-opening of the case.
This is a film that does have its moments, although on the whole it doesn’t fairly make the impact it should have. The length could have been cut by 20 minutes and several of the supporting cast doesn’t perform up to the mark.
