The Jessica Lal murder had created headlines in 1999 and 11 years later, the Supreme Court’s confirmation of Manu Sharma’s conviction and guilt in the matter also created headlines. 12 years after the murder, the movie starring Rani Mukherjee and Vidya Balan based on Jessica's family’s courageous fight did the same.
This was a film based on a true story; when circumstances made a bandit out of a star athlete. The redoubtable Irrfan Khan played the role of an Indian army soldier who won a national medal and was subsequently forced to become a bandit with skillful understatement.
