Crazxy" showcases Sohum Shah's remarkable solo performance in a tense, edge-of-the-seat thriller. The film's storytelling and music excel, immersing viewers in its gripping narrative.

Crazxy is a film that boldly ventures into uncharted territory. Centered entirely around Sohum Shah’s gripping performance, the movie dares to tell a high-stakes, race-against-time story almost single-handedly. While the concept of a lone character battling against impossible odds isn’t entirely new, the film’s raw intensity and visual flair set it apart from conventional thrillers.

The narrative is a rollercoaster—moments of brilliant tension and clever twists keep you on edge, even if certain parts feel a bit stretched. Director Girish Kohli’s attempt at a Tarantinoesque style is evident in the film’s snappy dialogues and kinetic camera work, though the climax doesn’t quite pack the punch one might expect.

Despite some pacing issues and an ending that leaves a few questions unanswered, Crazxy succeeds in delivering a uniquely immersive experience. It’s a daring, if imperfect, ride that showcases the strength of its lead actor and the filmmaker’s willingness to experiment. If you appreciate movies that take risks and break away from the norm, Crazxy is definitely worth your time.

The movie shows a story of a father played by Sohum Shah whose daughter is kidnapped by some anonymous person or team and the whole theme revolves around this thriller that who is the person behind the call.

Sohum Shah yet again proved how potentially good he is in his craft and the girl who played the character of daughter also shines in thi film.

Right from background score to all the songs played elevates the scenes and will give you a wholesome experience.

Cinematography is exectued so beautifully that every moment brings you to the edge of the seat.

Overall the movie is one of the best I came across in recent year thrillers and highly recommended to anyone who enjoys a good movie experience.

A high-octane and intense thriller, Crazxy will leave the audience on a rollercoaster of emotions and suspense. Directed by Girish Kohli, the movie revolves around the life of Dr. Abhimanyu Sood, a surgeon whose life is completely turned around with a chilling phone call. Taking inspiration from the 2013 Tom Hardy-starrer Locke, Crazxy has been cleverly adapted to suit the Indian context and hence becomes relatable as well as thrilling. The fact that the movie employs a single location—a car—increases the tension and suspense of the film. With Sohum Shah at the helm, I was eagerly looking forward to seeing the mayhem on the big screen!

The Plot:

Crazxy is about Dr. Abhimanyu Sood, played by Sohum Shah, who comes across as a fine surgeon but a poor father and an unethical human. His world turns upside down when he gets a call that his daughter, Vedika, who has Down Syndrome, has been kidnapped. He is told to drive to a particular place somewhere outside Delhi and leave a ransom there. On the way, he gets various calls, from his wife, mistress, colleague, etc., which increases the intensity of the story. With the progression of the movie, we come across the true personality of Dr. Abhimanyu. The whole mess ends up at the climax and we are left at the edge of our seats.

Performances:

Sohum Shah is known for his intense roles, but Crazxy by far feels his best performance. From dialogue delivery to range of emotions, he surpasses all expectations. The other characters do not get much screen time, but deliver fair performances. Nimisha Sajayan, Tinnu Anand, and Shilpa Shukla enhance the character equations. Their dialogue exchange comes across as real and interesting. Sohum’s nuanced and layered making him relatable despite his flaws. Overall, the performances in Crazxy are a highlight of the film, elevating the story and making it a compelling watch.

Standout Elements:

Girish Kohli's writing and direction are impressive, crafting a taut story. The music, written by Vishal Bhardwaj and Gulzar, enhances the emotional value of the film. The cinematography by Kuldeep Mamania and Sunil Borkar is superb. The high-speed car chases were masterfully filmed. I enjoyed how the film ratcheted up tension during the call sequences. Crazxy as a film deals with intense themes like redemption, family relationships, and faith. The pacing of the film is excellent, making sure that tension gradually increases.

Should You Watch It?

It was a great experience watching Crazxy on the big screen. It exhibits Sohum Shah's acting abilities and Girish Kohli's talents as a writer. Those who enjoy intense thrillers laden with emotions should definitely catch Crazxy. The only serious drawback is the dialogues. They are not worth the high-voltage action. Additionally, additional screen time to the other actors would have made the film feel complete. Nevertheless, the film is a thrill for those who enjoy being on the edge of their seats.
