À propos de ce film

A story about two small time crooks, Khalujaan and Babban, who are on the run from their boss, Mushtaq. They seek refuge with their old friend's widow, Krishna. The duo is drawn to Krishna as they spend time with her. There is a breath of fresh air in their lives, as each one of them finds a way to forget about the past and enjoy every moment. This fantasy is shattered when Mushtaq discovers the location of Khalujaan and Babban. Being a gangster's wife, a new side of Krishna comes to light. A master in her husband's criminal ways, she is the only way for the duo to get out of trouble. Skeletons from Krishna's past which were locked up till now bounce back, creating a clash between love and trust on one side and crime and deceit on the other.

Notes et avis

Lets face it, Bollywood is saturated with predictable, cheesy, poorly acted love stories. Out of nowhere emerges this gem of a movie. Predictability gets thrown out the window. Ishqiya is a well-woven, complex, immersive, beautifully acted buddy-comedy/love-triangle/twisted-but-romantic/classic cinema. Two con-men steal money from and escape the wrath of a crime-boss by taking refuge with a widow in a remote politically contested town with its own guirrella army. A twisted tale of a widow's wrath follows.

The beautiful film and vidya balan is so much beautiful
