It is a fantastic movie which can be clubbed under the 'suspense thriller" genre. It is a must watch movie. 2 unique things come out


a Ordinary people have no idea what are being subjected to in the performance of their daily chores of office work, travel et al. They do not know whether they are part of some large experiments. With the so called advancement of technologies, the list of types of experiments is increasing an so also is the mode of evaluation. In the craze for growing big (and rich), the already-rich can go to any extent to have their objective fulfilled.


b. It also shows in a very simple manner that if the person at the top (either of a Team or an organisation) is not a good person in the eyes of the staff, they can connive to bring harm to the tormentor in a manner which cannot be imagined. The tormented souls and if there is unity among all similar tormented souls, can go to any extend to seek revenge.


The influence of OTT is growing with each passing day and we must be aware of the developments that are being showcased. We ought to learn from the good takes.


The show is not much, the actors are simple yet render powerful acts and there is not a single minute of nonsense. My personal score would be 9.5 / 10.

  "Savi" (2024), directed by Abhinay Deo, is a jailbreak thriller set in London, featuring Divya Khossla Kumar, Harshvardhan Rane and the legendary Anil Kapoor. The story follows Savi, an ordinary woman who undertakes a daring mission to free her husband from a high-security British prison with the help of a witty ex-convict played by Anil Kapoor. The film’s visual style and London backdrops add appeal and the second half picks up with engaging twists and a tighter pace. Anil Kapoor stands out with his energetic performance, while Divya Khossla Kumar and Harshvardhan Rane deliver competent, if somewhat limited, roles.
