Script Analysis And Director Review : The script is new and fresh . The film builds it momentum throughout the film mostly due to its engaging script . Director Habib Faisal who has given films lie Do Dooni Chaar , Ishzaade and Dawaat –e- ishq , has given us a extremely remarkable job in this film .He has very well directed the film sequence by sequence , depicting the inmates life in a very realistic manner .

 

Performance : Aadar Jain and Anya Singh make thei debit with this film . They both have given a very good performance . They both are very confident in the film . Anya Singh has done a fantastic job , she has an endearing and arresting screen presence . Though Aadar Jain is good but he has to work on his facial expressions especially in emoting emotional scene .Sachin has mostly played positive roles in movies but in this film he has tried his hand at negative role that does not suit him.

Final Word : This film is a must watch for all who love to see talent at its best . The film also should be seen as it depicts the the fact that our judiciary system does more injustice to under trails instead of justice .
