Rukh movie review: Manoj Bajpayee remains underused in this puzzle around a chronicle of death
Rukh movie review: There’s not enough of the powerhouse Manoj Bajpayee in the film.
‘Rukh’ means direction, or aspect. In the film, we see a bunch of people flailing, looking for a mooring, and getting some clarity. It’s what we do when life, in all its messiness and problems and small joys, is being lived.
The sudden death of a character causes not just grief, which is a natural outcome, but also leaves a puzzle behind. Who was he? Did anyone really know him? Who is his wife, son, father, old friend? And also leaves us asking that most thought-provoking question – do we really know anyone, even our most intimate relations?
