Day before yesterday I watched "Talvar".Ofcourse I had been obsessed about seeing the movie for many reasons-
1.It is related tp Aarushi Talwar case,Where a girl merely 14 was murdered just days before her 15th birthday and then it became the "Double Murder Case" when the Domestic help was found murdered too.
Was that the only reason of curiosity?so many young girls get murdered and so many servants too.But what had shaken me and thousands of other U.Pites in particular -the parents being held guilty.It was shocking for me,though just a sensational case for many.I am a late parent like Talwars' and I could never fathom hpw a parent can murder their only child.!!!
2.The movie is made by Meghana Gulzar,one of my favourite director and then Vishal Bhardwaj's association added to the appeal.To be honest,till a month back or so,I did not even know that such a movie was being made but it premiered at a premier Film Festival and I heard about it.My curiosity was spiked.
Irrfan ofcourse is another stellar attraction.But till I really watched the movie I had not comprehended what an important role he has played.
3.I wanted to see the treatment the "Film Wallah" will give to a real case which is still waiting for its appeal to Supreme Court.I have always felt frustrated at failure of Police deptt and The C.D.I(C.B.I)as they have called in the movie.
Now,coming to what I experienced after seeing the film------
1.Shock at the realization that yes,I am one of those crores of Indians who never noticed that the Statue of Justice does not only carry a Balance in her hand but also a TALWAR i.e the Sword of justice.!!!I will be honest that I never had noticed it and I am 44 years of age and I am a law abiding Indian citizen.
2.This realization clarified my BIG QUESTION???? Why movie is called TALVAR not TALWAR. Well ,a very very clever interplay of words by the team ,I must appreciate.
3.Hell lot of frustration and anger as I saw how the U.P police missed out on vital clues and reckless,massive carelessness on part of them which delayed the true justice infinitely.The blood stained hand print that was washed away in rain,took away biggest clue to the killer.
I had visited Jalvayu Vihar in Noida after the infamous case and since then i have visited it countless times in my dreams a hope to be able to see something in my dreams which everyone missed out....Too much expectation out of my sixth sense,rather.
I hope that now I will not visit it in my dreams one more time.
Finally I have felt irritated at the way the media plays with minds of common masses.As they have shown in the movie too,And I recalled My horror at realizing that parents were implicated.Media sensationalized and While watching the movie I realized with great embarrassment that Yes,For few moments only though I too had believed that it might be case of so called honour killing.I felt ashamed.....And may be that's why my obsession with the case,The little hope that Parents were falsely implicated and that hope continues...
