Maachis

The film Maachis is set in Punjab during "Operation Blue Star" in the aftermath of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi's assassination. The story is of Kripal Singh's (Chandrachur Singh) anguish over the detention and torture of his best friend Jassi (Raj Zutshi), after he is picked up by the police arbitrarily for the alleged murder of an MP in New Delhi. An offence with which he is not even remotely connected. Incidentally Kripal is engaged to marry Jassi's sister Veeran (Tabu in a National Award winning role). Haunted by the marks of torture on Jassi's body inflicted by the police, and the grave injury and injustice to his friend, Kripal leaves home and wanders aimlessly. One day he meets Sanatan (Om Puri), a bearer of many grievances against what is happening around him. Sanatan introduces Kripal to a group of youngsters, who were affected by one or the other incidents during the 1984 Delhi riots. Soon events unfold which mirror the tragedy that overtook Punjab ... Gulzar's award-winning masterpiece is not to be missed. Featuring blockbuster songs "Chappa Cappa..." and "Paani Paani Re" from an excellent music score by Vishal, and lyrics by Gulzar.
