A must watch for the current scenario

Highly impressed by these low budget movies with soo much reality in these movies ! Real life time stories which is existing in the current scenario in this generation or era now ! This movie is an eye opener to many...that peeps have to be sensible in how they move around in this current society for someone to get carried away to sin against them in whatever context. Wonderful screenplay how the director took the movie ...Though this movie main context is about chain snatching ...I feel everyone have to see with eyes in all ways how they can lead a safe life from youngsters sinning in the posh world we live in...(my suggestions)..a good movie ..where not even once I checked my mobile for a boring scene or song ...well acted by each character...so many concepts in this movie if well observed !
