A wednesday is a film about the terrorism that is the biggest current issue all over the world today.Director Neeraj Pandey takes terrorism as theme for film and give it a new climax in the end which is simply REMARKABLE!!The story resolves around a 'AAM AADMI'(Naseeruddin Shah) who suddenly gets sick of living his life in fear and decides to teach everyone a lesson.
Beginning with Naseeruddin Shah planting bombs in the most densely populated part of the city.Prakash Rathod (Anupam Kher), Commissioner of Mumbai Police, gets a call demanding the release of four terrorists in lieu of information on bombs that the man has planted in various parts of Mumbai. At first, Prakash suspects it to be a crank call, but his doubts are dispelled once he actually finds a bomb planted in the police station right opposite the Police Headquarter.Prakash Rathod is not the type to give up easily. He gets a team of his best men together and taps all his resources. He even hires a young hacker to help his team to trace the calls and also the location of the anonymous caller. Time passes by, but no concrete results are evident. Eventually, Prakash Rathod decides to hand over the militants to the anonymous caller. It is then that events take a bizarre turn.
For this mission,Rathore chose his two best officers 'Ariff Khan' (Jimmy Shergill) and 'Jai'(Aamir Bashir).'Naina Roy'(Deepal shaw) also plays an important role of a Television journalist. A wednesday offers you twist after twist, throws challenge after challenge in those 100 minutes.No sub-plots, no songs, no unwanted masala, no unnecessary tracks -- A wednesday has a story to tell and it tells most effectively.
The climax is an absolute knock-out with an accolade-winning speech by Naseer who becomes a flag-bearer for all those nameless, ordinary people battling with this modern-day scourge, the world over. The highpoint of the film is the class act by the two stalwarts of the industry: Naseer and Anupam pitch in riveting performances as the shuffling, seemingly inconsequential, nameless bomber and the no-nonsense cop. Add to this some finely nuanced acts by Jimmy Shergill and Aamir Bashir and you have a topical, gritty, high-adrenalin drama.
On the whole, A wednesday is a far superior film -- in its content as well as end result!!
