Tom’s review published on Letterboxd:
Pavail Gulati was a pleasant surprise; it's been years since I first watched this and I had no idea who he was the first time. He's also not credited in this movie on Letterboxd for some reason, but he's an immensely talented actor and I wish he were in more of this.
I'm lowering my score on a rewatch, in part because the entire plot is built on a pretty ludicrous premise -- if Vikram had simply allowed himself to be taken in for questioning to begin with, I'm sure he could've talked his way out of it and disposed of her body as he ends up doing in the movie anyway, and I find it highly unlikely he would've had to kill Shekhar as well with Katherine dead, since the lawsuit would no longer be a concern -- but otherwise this holds up pretty well. It's a bit difficult to follow in places, and the final reveal (let alone the fact that Vikram managed to conceal the truth so perfectly) feels incredibly far-fetched, but otherwise this is a satisfyingly engaging and twisty thriller which I enjoy a great deal. I doubt I'll watch it a third time, but I like it quite a bit.
