Jimmy Cage Jimmy Cage Movie Reviews (YouTube) Govind Nihalani’s ARDH SATYA is a damn strong character drama, starring a fantastic Om Puri, and at the same time a powerful and harrowing systemic study of police brutality, corruption and power or powerlessness. Rated: 8/10 Jan 17, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

It is a rare example of hard hitting Indian cinema transcending cultural boundaries . It is directed by Govind Nihalani who is known for his radical approach . The cinematography is good with realistic depiction of Mumbai city in the 1980's. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
