The lack of tension due to the simplification of the actual case does pang a bit but if you overlook this lack of substantial drama and surplus of melodrama, SIRF EK BANDAA KAAFI HAI is a thematically timely, emotionally powerful film that's brilliantly directed, superbly written and gracefully acted.
Special shoutout to the scene where Manoj Bajpai converses with his mother on the terrace while being emotional, and his mother uplift his spirits while reminding her of a poem she taught her in childhood. That scene is such a beauty amidst the heavy themes of child abuse and women's safety and makes you well your eye, even compels you to cry like a baby while remembering your mother.
