Watching Malik on Amazon Prime. It is an engaging crime drama. Fahaadh Fasil is absolutely exemplary and lives the character he plays. His progression from his teens to the time he is 60 takes the story forward. It is a all about smuggling, politics and one up-manship. Superb characterization and storyline with no dull moment in between.
The female lead is also an extraordinary artist. Religion and politics is a deadly combination. Communalism raises it's ugly head and turns the story around. There are some violent scenes and statements that may be be objectionable from some point of view. The movie reminded me of the movie Nayakan/Dayavan where the smuggler and local don becomes a good Samaritan for the locals and they do their best to save him from any harm. The climax is spine chilling. The versatility of this amazing performer is for all to see. All in all a wonderful watch. Beautiful locations, great music, superb dialogues, outstanding cinematography. Fans of FaFa just cannot miss this one!
It's streaming on Amazon Prime.
