A Misguided Misfire: The Stagnant Ambition of Daayra
Meghna Gulzar’s *Daayra* tackles a disturbing real-life-inspired case but struggles to turn its weighty subject into compelling cinema. Despite strong performances from Pragati Mishra and others, the film is held back by sluggish pacing, static storytelling, underutilised actors and a disappointing climax.
