The story is convincing and watchable, but a bit on the mundane side. There's also some narrative confusion as the film is set up as Archana's flashback, but includes events that she was not privy to... including one that would likely have altered her fate if she'd been aware of it. However, Sen is wonderful, conveying a great deal of frustration, despair and anger in her close-ups. And except for a few poor rear projection shots, the cinematography is very fine.
