Monica [Sushen Bhatnagar]

If there's any one reason to see Monica, it's to say that you've seen a film where Rajit Kapur chews up scenery and Ashutosh Rana is impressively restrained. Otherwise, this one is no good as the story of a wannabe hotshot journalist (Divya Dutta) that is willing to make all manner of compromise to gain a foothold in the corridors of power, and is in general too coy to make much good in the sleaze department. Add to that a wholly unnecessary and intrusive non-linear editing style and you can't call this a great way to spend 2 hours. All in all it's OK for a FEW lulz moments. But yes, this is a movie where Rajit Kapur chews up scenery and Ashutosh Rana is impressively restrained, and that's something.
