'Bas Ek Pal' - Onir's take on urban relationships (PREVIEW)
New Delhi, Sep 12 After his sensitive "My Brother Nikhil"
that dealt with homosexuality and AIDS, new-age director Onirban
returns to the marquee this Friday with "Bas Ek Pal" about
complex urban relationships.
The Sanjay Suri-Urmila Matondkar starrer goes into the
overlapping issues of friendship, love, jealousy, passion,
insecurity and anger.
The film revolves around five people bound by an incident that
changes their lives forever. Set in Mumbai, each character has a
secret. When they are unearthed, they alter the dynamics of
every relationship in the movie.
The story goes something like this:
After completing his MBA from abroad, happy go lucky Nikhil
(Sanjay Suri) returns to Mumbai where he bumps into Anamika (Urmila
Matondkar), an architect, at a nightclub.
For Nikhil it's love at first sight, but Anamika doesn't take
him seriously and disappears without even telling her name.
Nikhil starts visiting the pub anticlock regularly hoping to
meet her again. After waiting for several nights, he is sitting
there with his buddies Rahul (Jimmy Shergill) and Steve (Rehaan
Engineer) when Anamika comes with her friends.
Nikhil tries to woo Anamika, but her boyfriend butts in and an
altercation takes place, leading to a scuffle in which a shot is
fired.
Time stands still as Nikhil realises he has shot his friend
Rahul who is lying unconscious on the floor.
The moment changes their lives. And as the movie progresses it
unveils their secrets one by one.
In the end, they realise that their quest for that ever elusive
moment of happiness complicated their lives.
Critics liked the film but were not too happy with the climax
when it was shown at the Osian Film Festival in the capital this
year. Onirban had said he might tighten his film a little bit.
If he has indeed made the necessary alterations, the film is
well worth a watch.
