| A homage to the noir genre, Manorama is about an amateur detective in a small town who finds himself caught in a web of lies, deceit and murder. SV is a government engineer but his real ambition has always been writing detective fiction. Unfortunately, his maiden attempt, a novel called Manorama, sank without a trace and he has been reduced to writing for cheap pulp magazines. Stifled by the dreariness of small town existence and frustrated by his failure, SV’s life changes when the wife of a powerful local politician arrives at his doorstep with an irresistible offer; the chance for SV to play a real life detective by spying on her husband. Intrigued and tempted by the opportunity to redeem his self-worth, SV accepts. Upon completion of his assignment, things take a turn when SV discovers that the woman is not who she claims to be. The situation get further complicated when she is killed in a mysterious accident. Sensing foul play, SV begins investigating her death only to discover that nothing is what it seems to be and that redemption doesn’t come easy. |

| Fans of Raymond Chandler and the "noir" genre of films will love this one. Indian remake of Jack Nicholson's classic Chinatown but very well done indeed. Director to watch out for. Thankfully underplayed without any undue fuss. Well worth a watch. |

| I like Abhay Deol. He has always worked in offbeat films and that is gutsy of him. Some of them work and this is one such movie.A little slow but the setting is a small town with slow pace and this movie gets that.The movie is a nice oldfashioned thriller. The ending was pretty goo too. |
