He loves her and so does she-she slept with Ashish Bhatnagar/Neeraj Grover (Ajay Gehi) in a weak moment, where he is fortunately not shown as a lecherous producer/movie executive and she is not shown as someone on the make. The dynamics of a group of young people from various parts of India who've come to Mumbai to look for work in the movies-is something Varma knows well, having observed so many people with stars in their eyes and dreams of Bollywood in their hearts.

And he shows us some things from another perspective. Men and women can love each other and still do crazy things that hurt. Parents can be shocked by what their children are capable of. And a lot can go on in a city like Mumbai which can get lost in the crowd. The tall half constructed buildings, the anonymous office crowds, the friends who stick up for each other, it's an interesting mix. And there are little touches: Robin holding Anu's head up so she doesn't have to see Ashish's body, naked and in a pool of blood on her drawing room floor. Anu's mother calling her about getting married even as they are dumping his dismembered body in the forest. And the policewoman slapping Anu to get her to confess.

It's Varma's old hunting ground-there's an animal inside each of us. And if you have the stomach for it, it's worth a watch.
