Jail (2009) *MQ*

Madhur Bhandarkar is synonymous with thought-provoking, hard-hitting films. Right from CHANDNI BAR to FASHION, the expert storyteller has made movies that hold tremendous shock-value. In turn, Madhur has cultivated a rich fan-base for his films.With JAIL, Madhur not only makes you visit a prison, but also makes you peep into the psyche of a prisoner. In the recent past, Sriram Raghavan’s EK HASINA THI [2004; Saif Ali Khan, Urmila Matondkar] and Nazim Rizvi’s UNDERTRIAL [2007; Rajpal Yadav] narrated the travails and anguish of innocents who were falsely implicated in a case. Besides, Nagesh Kukunoor’s TEEN DEEWAREIN [2003; Naseeruddin Shah, Jackie Shroff, Nagesh Kukunoor] too narrated the story of three convicts. But JAIL is different from the above-named films.Besides watching a thought-provoking story on celluloid, one has also come to expect incredible performances in a Madhur Bhandarkar movie. And JAIL too is embellished with superb performances from its key actors.JAIL transports you to ahitherto unknown world that most of us haven’t seen and if this is its USP, it’s also something that might go against it. Irrespective of how strong its merits are, a section of moviegoers [read families/kids], who generally tilt towards feel good/sunshine/entertainment-filled cinema, might skip this film due to its dry [and at times depressing] theme.

The film follows the life of Parag Dixit (Neil Nitin Mukesh), an ambitious young executive, making his life up the corporate ladder. Just when everything seems to be going well for this young man, his life is turned upside down and he finds himself behind bars, convicted of a crime which he never committed. His room mate turns out to be a major drug dealer and the cops nab Parag and find a bag full of cocaine in his car. The drug belongs to his friend, who is gunned down by the cops and Parag pays for being in the car with him. His girlfriend (Mugdha Godse) and his mother hire a lawyer and try their best to get him released on bail, but the appeals is turned down and Parag is remanded to judicial custody.

A shell shocked, Parag finds it difficult accept his reality and adjust to life in jail. He oscillates from utter helplessness to bouts of anger and then back to helplessness again. Gradually, he starts making friends with the other convicts like Nawab (Manoj Bajpai) and Kabir (Arya Babbar) among others, who help him out in little ways. Nawab is an upright man and he can sense Parag is not a criminal and tries to steer him away from the unpleasant elements in jail like Kabir, who works for a don, who himself is leading a cushy life in jail. The Jail superintendent is aware of all that is going on inside his jail but admits that he is unable to take any action. Cops and criminals are locked in an unholy nexus, nothing new really, and many of the criminals receive favours from the cops. Life in jail is really not all that different from life outside. Parag’s bail hearing is turned down by the High Court a couple of times, but he finally gets justice and is a free man.
