Agni Sakshi (1996)
9/10
Worth watching
5 July 2006
It's basically the story of a woman who tries to start a new life when the past comes to her in person and haunts her till she has to fake her own death. It sheds light on women trapped in relationships that they cannot escape from, especially in the Indian society. If you are into bollywood movies, this movie is a must see. The songs are decent but can be skipped. In today's world where the name "Bollywood" reminds us of half-clad helpless actresses whose only purpose in the movie is to yell for help while the macho actor comes from nowhere and rescues her, this movie gives Bollywood viewers yet another reason to be patient and wait for movies such as these. Even though there are moments in this movie where the main actor rescues the actress from her "past", there is definitely a plot! Manisha Koirala and Nana Patekar especially give us a stunning performance and the rest of the cast do a decent job too.
