This film was created way back in 2010 for UTV. But for unknown reasons it never got released.

Now all of a sudden, it has started doing the rounds of the virtual world and is garnering mixed reviews for the thought process behind it. The film stars Rajkumar Rao and Vijay Maurya.

Life can change in a fraction of seconds and the movie shows just that.

It begins with Rajkumar entering a hair salon. He seems to be in pretty good terms with the barber. They talk just the way two pals would talk, sharing pleasantries and exchanging stories about common friends. The hair-cutting dude asks Raj to show him naughty videos on his phone, but Rao denies, he says he’s getting late for an interview and needs to get rid of his stubble ASAP. All of a sudden the two sense a commotion outside the salon. A couple of Muslim guys were ruthlessly beating up a Hindu man. Meanwhile, these two were witnessing the scene in a state of utter shock. They just gape at the ghastly battle between two men from different religions with sheer helplessness, when suddenly something seems to have stirred within the haircutting dude. He was now planning to use the same razor he was supposed to use for shaving his Muslim friend’s beard, to slash his neck. And he does so without thinking twice. What happens after that makes him realise the stupidity of his action. You have to watch that…

The video maybe a little extreme, but the point it’s trying to prove is not wrong. There are a lot of people out there who maybe best of friends with people from other religions, but the moment there’s an air of communal disharmony, it doesn’t take much time for their friendship to transform into a ‘mud-slinging’ relationship.

Watch the video and let us know what your views are…
