Review of Omkara (2006) by Yasir Q — 05 Sep 2007
Based on the Shakespearean tragedy ?Othello?, the film speaks volumes of the director?s craft. At no point of time does the audience feel that the story is an adaptation from a period and culture far removed.
Gulzar?s lyrics with an authentic ethnic flavor, backed by premium quality sound track, are arguably his best work yet. A very strong performance by Saif Ali Khan, free of overly exaggerated histrionics (typical for Indian cinema), is an added attraction.
