Director Susi Ganesan's second Hindi film 'Dil Hai Gray', which was the choice of the National Film Development Corporation (NDFC) for the Toronto International Film Festival, premiered here with a special screening, with the director and lead actress Urvashi Rautela present in the audience.
Set in three ci𓄧ties in Uttar Pradesh, 'Dil Hai Gray' is a sort of spy thriller-cum-family drama, highlighting the intrusion of technology and social media such as Facebook and Instagram into our lives to the extent that anyone can peek into our privacy.
With Vineet Kumar Singh and Akshay Oberoi in male roles, the film's plot revolves around a spymaster who has been tasked with tapping pho𒆙nes of big guns for corruption.
Ironicalꦅly, while spying on others, the spymaster himself becomes the victim of a ruthless, s𓂃uper-smart computer geek who intrudes into his private life.
The modus operandi of this evil computer geek, played by Akshay Oberoi, is to break𓃲 into people's computers, befriend women and then blackmail and disgrace them.
As the spymaster fights for his family honour, the sex-crazy computeಌr geek always stays a step ahead of the spymaster as he wreaks emotional and social havoc on the latter's family.💧
This evenly paced film, frame after 📖frame, tries to portray the reality of modern life - that there is no privacy in t⛦oday's social-media driven life.
In her post-screening speech, Rautela said it was a dream come true for her to have her film screened at the world's premier fi𓆉lm festival. She said she jumped at t💟he opportunity to do this film as she liked its new genre.
