ROY - Hindi movie review

Rating: ***





The subject is abstract and more so is the story telling of ROY.

This film is not for the masses, its for the pseudo-intellectuals, to be precise.

Debutant director Vikramjit Singh who is also the writer of this romantic thriller is innovative in his presentation of life and times of a successful yet quirky filmmaker.

A different approach in showing on screen, the moods, senses, sensitive moments and the dreams of a director while he is working on the story simultaneously directing the film.

We get a visual treat of colours, the locales, the actual depiction of thought process of a filmmaker, most often dubbed as arrogant and abnormal.

About the story, ROY is the creative portrayal of the sketch of a filmmaker who works on his own terms.
