A New Face Of Terror
Much like an anti-establishment movie, an angry common man wages his war against the system in ‘A Wednesday’.

Now, here’s a flick that doesn’t send you home romping with joy and crooning sweet songs shot at scenic location abroad. ‘A Wednesday’ is a film set right in Mumbai. And it talks about terrorism from a new angle. The antagonist in it doesn’t come with a stereotyped religious label. He is a ‘common man’ who vents out his angst by taking on the system and trying to bring it down to its knees. Only an obdurate Police Commissioner, Anupam Kher can foil his mission.

On a fateful Wednesday he receives a call from a man who claims to have planted bombs in different parts of the city, set to go off at half-past six in the evening. The caller, Naseeruddin Shah, describes self as a ‘common man’ and demands the release of four terrorists if the impending calamity has to be averted.

The threat sends the cops into overdrive as the Commissioner, with the help of an ATS commando, Jimmy Shergill and a tough cop, Aamir Bashir and a journalist, Deepal Shaw, tries to foil the common man’s uncommonly dangerous plan.

What’s most remarkable about the movie is that it keeps you gripped despite opening its cards at the very outset. Yes, you are told at the start what the end is going to be. What keeps you hooked is how the plot meanders through many unexpected twists and turns before reaching its predictable denouement.
