Maqbool : review

maqbool
blind faith , blind love is dangerous.
but at the end there is no love no faith , only obsession and ego. love and faith are human constructs , whats real is a man's ego and his obsession for possession ! misplaced realities of these things lead to disastrous consequences.
maqbool beautifully, very powerfully brings out these kind of concepts. macbeth is honored to have given inspiration to such an amazing movie, the characters breathe life into shakesphere's 16th century text !
powerful and amazing and deep performances by pankaj kapoor, tabu , om puri and shah .... though sometimes i felt irfan khan was lost, trying to cope up with the character that he was playing or maybe thats how the character is intended to be. but i think the credit rests with the director, how does he get the best from these actors, the way they talk, act , look ... the eyes in this movie conveys a hundred different emotions and passions.
the ability of what one thinks is love can change the best of man, can lead the strongest of men to act in ways they can only be ashamed of. maqbool is the story of emotions put to test , the story of a man who is caught between the deep love he experiences for a woman and the loyalty that his conscience demands for his master. the story of a woman who eggs, prods and manipulates a man to make him hers ... the couple whose innocent and sincere feelings for each other are caught in the crossfire of higher stakes , the two policemen who provide the insight and anecodates at important points of the film and finally the grand old man who controls all that he can see ! its a movie that has to be seen for the sake of the gripping drama.
