Here is another film for the cine lovers who like to watch off-beat films. Vishal Bharadwaj, along with debutant director Abhishek Chaubey, is ready with another movie, Ishqiya.
Set in notorious eastern Uttar Pradesh, the movie is a tale of romance between individuals caught in a web of crime, passion and deceit. Two thieves, Khalujan (Naseeruddin Shah) and Babban (Arshad Warsi), are on the run from their boss, Mushtaq (Salman Shahid). They seek refuge with an old friend but instead meet his widow, Krishna (Vidya Balan). As they plan their escape, their time spent together draws the duo to her, Khalujan with his vision of old-fashioned love and Babban with his lascivious heart. Arshad utters this line to Naseer, “Tumhara pyar, pyar, hamara pyar, sex!” The threat of imminent death forces them on a path of violence and betrayal.
