Hansal Mehta once again comes with a smash hit in Scam 2003.
Aided by a well-knit, taut and fast paced script by Karan Vyas and others, Gagandev Riar gives an Oscar of a performance that couldn't have been bettered by any versatile actor. He is so believable that one feels Telgi couldn't have acted himself better. He progresses from a common man's smiling face to a little turn up of lip as situation is getting tougher and slipping up. Did real Abdul Karim Telgi keep hitching up his trouser all the time? I am sure he did.
There is not a dull moment. The plot builds up like on auto-pilot aided by logical cutting. Sets look authentic and the cinematography makes no unwarranted showmanship.
Credit must go to the directors Tanvi Chheda and Tushar Hiranandani, Frankly, I had to look up who these two were and found Tanvi Chedda in Kaun Banega Crorepati as creative director and Tushar Hiranandani has the acclaimed Saandh ki Aankha to his credit as director.
I don't understand why S1 had to stop at E5. The story hasn't yet taken such a turn to take a break for popcorn! And it is a popcorn break as S2 is announced coming as early as in November.
