Director Rajkumar Gupta has quite agreeably dramatized the much talked Jessica Lall murder case. The director has magnificently represented the aftermath of the murder with help of main characters of Sabrina Lall (played by Vidya Balan) and a journalist (played by Rani Mukerji).
The murder case, which mainly accused Manu Sharma, the son of a renowned politician, created a ruckus among the media and common people in Delhi , where it happened. The movie showed how Sabrina with the help of media brought justice to her late sister. Manu Sharma eventually got life imprisonment after a compulsory retrial.
Gupta has intelligently chosen the topic, which has emotional touch with everyone in the country. It offers reality mixed with some fiction to keep the entertainment level intact.
Vidya Balan has influentially played the role of Sabrina and her drab look with spectacles is totally opposite her murdered sister Jessica, who was a renowned model. Vidya has brought the sorrow and strength in her character, which have been experienced by Sabrina in real life.
Rajesh Sharma as the cop has also done a good job. His character openly discloses Sabrina that he has taken bribe in the case and that is quite normal.
Rani Mukerji has turned a strong and open minded journalist Meera, who helps Sabrina to handle the pressure and reopen the case to establish the charge on Manu Sharma. Rani is foul mouthed and smokes in the movie and that only establishes the independence and strength of her character in the movie.
One would not expect great music in a movie like 'No One Killed Jessica', but one couldn't be more wrong. Amit Trivedi and Amitabh Bhattacharya join hands once again to deliver a terrific soundtrack, especially the 'Dilli Dilli' number. The snatches of the other songs which appear are also quite impact and the duo does a magnificent job. Anay Goswami's cinematography is great and the screenplay and dialogues have been outstandingly penned by Gupta. They are realistic and will definitely stroke a chord with audiences.
The movie will bring different emotions like anger, bitterness, sadness and above all the confidence to fight for the justice.
Overall, it is praiseworthy film.
