Sunday is a pure carbon copy of Telugu Movie Anukokunda Oka Roju (2005), with a tinge of Bollywood Masala added to it, to perfectly fit into the Bollywood movies genre.
A lady is murdered at the very outset and the pieces of the confusing puzzle are fixed in an interesting and stylish way. Sunday has a quality of suspecting all the characters of the film as murder suspects and this has been done is a well carved way.
To sum up, Sunday strikes the right balance between the tow diverse genres of suspense and comedy. It’s a film that holds appeal more the regular film audience, but is a strict no for the hard nosed critics who will definitely feel that this film is not realistic.
Story Sehar’s (Ayesha Takia) world turns topsy turvy when she gets a clue about the missing Sunday of her life, which points to a possible violent attack on her. ACP Rajveer (Ajay Devgan) takes the case to trace out the complicated and tangled threads of Sehar’s life.
In the process of solving Sehar’s case, it comes to light that on Sunday, different people interacted with her and one amongst them could be the accused. The different people include Ballu(Arshad Warsi),the taxi driver and his friend Kumar(Irfan), A struggling Actor, Ritu (Anjana Sukhanil), Sehar’s close friend , a scary and suspicious character(Murli Sharma), who resides in Sehar’s Society and the group whom she has come across while partying at the Discotheque.
Rajveer is convinced that Sehar is innocent, but he is also equally sure that she is linked to everything. Is Sehar really innocent as she claims to be is the supense which ,must bee seen on the silver screen?
Even though the two genres Suspense and Comedy move concurrently, the suspense element isn’t too heavy on the minds nor do the comic portions seem to be too much shadowed, but come out well at the end.
Performances
Ajay Devgan who is known for some serious stuffed roles shows a flair for comic moments and gets right. Though his comedy is not upto the mark of film Golmaal , but is accordingly with the character of an ACP. Sunday will surely multiply his fan following since the actor is deviating from the path of a serious actor to an actor with a humor touch.
Arsda Warsi is in terrific form in career, his acting is well applaudable and he has given his 100 percent to his character.
Irfan khan also had a good scope fro flawless acting in his short character and he lived up to the expectations of the director.
Ayesha takia has done her role with ease. She lives that character rather than just acting and she must be praised for her impeccable innocent performance through out the movie.
Anjana sukhani does her role well and is also supported by Murli sharma, Vrajesh Hirjee and Ali asgar who add up the characters in the movie.
On the whole, Sunday is a well made entertainer that has the potential to click with the movie goers. It also has the advantage of having open weeks ahead, with no major competition till February 15th. The songs, screen play and the story add up to the success of the movie.
So, do watch SUNDAY this Sunday guys!
