Description

Missing is a 2018 Indian Hindi-language psychological thriller film written & directed by Mukul Abhyankar, produced by Shital Bhatia, Shabana Raza Bajpayee, Vikram Malhotra, Shri Adhikari Brothers, Anand Pandit & Roopa Pandit and starring Tabu, Manoj Bajpayee and Annu Kapoor in the lead roles. 

Some people might not like the movie because of its slow pace and notoriously cryptic twists to the tale. But if you have the patience, then go through the film to see the finesse with which it has been written and made. The writer sure did a good job in keeping the people on the edge. The direction in screenplay  deserves a standing ovation as it drives you through a thrilling experience with actors Tabu and Manoj Bajpayee in tow. 
Tabu has made a successful comeback with quite a few films in her kitty. Her calm, composed presence was more of a welcome from the usual. Manoj is always doing his best, never giving people a chance to be critical. But he could have done better, if given the scope. 
Anu Kapoor carried out his part of a police officer with elan. But I would have preferred a different name for him. ‘Buddhu’ sounds as if there was more to the story than meets the eye. But then, you realise it is nothing of the sort.  
I loved the end of the story, where this old man comes looking for his daughter, ‘Titli’. That’s when we as an audience get more warped. Was it, was it not? What happened, exactly? Where is Titli? Who is the mother? Who is Titli? Was she really a living human? 
A movie to watch!
