In Gosford Park too, there was an Inspector Thompson (a hilarious Stephen Fry), whose wry and bumbling sense of inspection was left to the sidelines, in order to unpack the dependency of the upper class on the lower class. One is instantly reminded of Robert Altman's 2001 film Gosford Park, which had a cunning invitation to the genre of a detective murder mystery, but by the end created its own ground for commentary on the classist British society. They are far too feeble or cut too short. None of the characters from the ensemble cast of Neeyat leave a mark. Add a certain lack of ambition in the way the characters are not given enough space to accommodate themselves into the framework of the narrative. There is no yearning or hunger to reinvent the genre for itself. There's a certain emphasis on adhering to the template in the way the proceedings move forward. The problem with Neeyat is it thinks that the sting in its tail (marked by a cameo appearance of Shefali Shah) would suffice. There's no shock, only placid acceptance. In Neeyat, the focus is far too scattershot to even elicit any kind of reaction. In that film, there were enough breadcrumbs spread across the narrative for it salvage that shocking twist. This pattern immediately holds back to another Vidya Balan thriller- Sujoy Ghosh's 2012 film Kahaani, where she played a heavily pregnant woman in search of her husband in Kolkata. We know so less about her (deliberately, still) that by the end, when the ropes are switched in the course of the climax to spin in a flashback of the events that occurred through the film, the impact is diluted. The flaw here is the undercooked characterization of Mira Rao herself, who is left to observe and come up with uncanny trivia about the most trivial of matters. The loose ends do tie up in Neeyat, but at the cost of a deceptive narrative trick- that doesn't quite hit the emotional buttons to create an impact. One of them must be somehow related to the victims, but how? This information about suicides is clue enough in a film like this, where the viewers being to second guess plot points in order to come to their own conclusions. So, he has chosen to surrender to the CBI, which is where officer Mira Rao (Vidya Balan) comes in. He is the billionaire whose company is now being butchered by the press for its malpractices, which have even led to the suicide of several employees. Early on, the audience is given context about the character played by Ram Kapoor, called AK. Here's where the characterization comes in.
But as a narrative operating within a murder mystery genre, Neeyat feels stretched outside the real world. Sure, that helps infuse the film with a sort of context within the structure overall. Neeyat is somehow stuck in its own genre predicament- to provide an entertaining and unpredictable surprise by the end of the whodunit. Vidya Balan in a still from Neeyat, which released in theatres on July 7. A winner on the cards? Yet, Neeyat stumbles its way to reach that wicked climax a good too many times to leave a solid impact. At first glance, this Anu Menon film seemed to have everything- a homegrown detective in Vidya, an eclectic ensemble cast with names including Rahul Bose, Neeraj Kabi, Amrita Puri, Dipannita Sharma, Shashank Arora, Prajakta Koli, Ishika Mehra, Danesh Razvi and a stormy night in an isolated castle. Given it stars Vidya Balan, who has shown a certain degree of boisterousness with choosing scripts over the years, Neeyat already took on an added element of expectation. So when Neeyat was announced, viewers sat up and took notice.
