Aligarh (2016)

Hansal Mehta's treatment of a sensitive, not so comfortable and socially taboo topic is commendable. His choice of two high-octane actors like Manoj Bajpai and Rajkummar Rao makes Aligarh a delight to watch. The deadly duo - Hansal Mehta and writer Apurva Asrani takes the viewers through an exploratory journey within, to feel and understand what it means to be alone at the autumn of one's life and that too when you are perceived as the 'other' by a majority in the society just because your sexual orientation doesn't toe the line. Hats off to Apurva Asrani for an honest and compelling story. Hansal Mehta's Shahid, City Lights and now Aligarh will be always remembered in the history of Indian cinemas for sure.
