From critical acclaim film, Blank, Behzad Kambata gives an engaging race-against-time thriller which keeps on your toes right from the beginning till the end. A Thursday (and not a sequel to Neeraj Panday's Wednesday) spares no moment and takes you to dive into the event that changed the lives of many people involved in the event. Scripted by Behzad Kambata and Ashley Lobo, A Thursday has couple of moments which are hair-raising - Naina shooting the first hostage, the rape scene and a stunning climax which might even give you goosebumps. On the flip side, second half slides down which could have been better managed with scenes like PM of India taking a poll to decide her next move. But crispy screenplay compensates for that. Art direction and cinematography is splendid. Background score gels well with the mood of the film.
