Highway (2014)
Contract criminals while on a routine burglary attempt abduct Veera - daughter of a rich businessman - as a bait for their escape. She initially tries to escape but comes back to them as she gets lost in a place where there is nowhere to go. The men lead by one by name Mahabir, take her along with them and she eventually finds her comfort zone in their company.
It was something that she never possessed but longed to possess. The men don't take advantage of her helplessness. On one dinner she recalls the way she was abused and molested by a family relative when she was 9 yrs old. Her mother on hearing from her own daughter about the molestation doesn't do much about it which pushes Veera to live with the molestations.
With those men running for their oxygen in a tempo, she feels the freedom that she always craved for. At some point, she admits that she neither wants to go to where they were going to nor returning back to her home.
At one point, she could not bear the pleasure of the unexpected chance of embracing what she always wanted to embrace. Mahabir, on the other hand, could not bear the agony of having gotten what he always longed for at the time when the policemen were in the lookout for his head. The world ends for Mahabir with one bullet piercing Mahabir's chest on the day next to the day he manages to get her a home at the top of a mountain.
Veera is sedated and taken back to her home. With continuous sedation by the time she gains conscious, Mahabir was long gone from the world. In the end, Veera peels off the real face of that relative who molested her and that of her mother who did nothing about it. She then leaves her home and no one follows her.
I find this film carrying dense emotions. This film criticises the nuances in the process of a rich getting richer. I think that's the best part of the movie. ARR music is so soothing. Not very great numbers which make you to listen to them often like the ones in Rangeela or Taal. But the background score in the film was too sensible. I loved this film personally.
