Irada is a film, which cries to be made instead of the characters. Naseeruddin Shah, who has fought in every war from 1971 to Kargil; his young daughter aspiring to be him and falling to cancer; an overzealous RTI activist; his raging journalist girlfriend who deploys drones to do her investigative stories(Sagarika Ghatge); a gum-chewing, cynical NIA officer(Arshad Warsi) with a young son who admires him; the corrupt chief minister who doesn’t hide her capriciousness(Divya Dutta, with the film’s only crackerjack scene); the greedy tycoon who once drowned a kid at Doon School and now bumps off RTI activists for pleasure(Sharad Kelkar); and finally a nobody called Bhagat Singh willing to be a martyr. Movie ‘Irada’ gives us dozens of thrilling experiences while the debut with the activist director Aparna Singh’s explanation goes to an exact way. Naseeruddin Shah and Arshad Warsi are the perfect metaphor of the Indian melody. There are also Villain Paddy F Sharma(Sharad Kelkar) and his partner-in-crime, CM, Ramandeep Braitch(Divya Dutta) are absolute caricatures.
