As No One Killed Jessica completes 8 years Check what its director Raj Kumar Gupta has to say about it?

No one killed jessica

The film based on the murder of a model – Jessica Lal was in a media for long, and finally, when the verdict came, the man who killed her in the presence of 150 people in the restaurant was acquitted on the lack of evidence. The next day a leading newspaper in the country had a title No One Killed Jessica. Perhaps this title has inspired the filmmaker Raj Kumar Gupta to make a film based on this real incident showcasing the killing and the struggle of Jessica’s sister to get justice. But it failed to work till a particular media channel played its part to create a mass movement in the country to get the man booked who killed the lady. This further gave the makers enough reason to embark with a movie based on it.

Today we complete eight long years to see this film starring Vidya Balan and Rani Mukherjee. The director had his interview for his film made 11 years ago covering the Jessica Lal case and the controversies it had surrounded. Vidya Balan simply nailed with her incredible performance playing the struggling sister and she was even nominated as the best actress for the film at Filmfare. Not only that the film was also nominated for the best film category at the same award function, while Rani bagged the award for the best supporting actress for the film at Filmfare. The director has much to say about his movie made eight years ago.

The director said that everything with the film including the star cast, the writing, direction and screenplay went the way as he always wanted both technically and craft wise. Talking about the cast, he said that he was not sure to bring both VIdya and Rani together in such a film but when they read the script both liked it and soon turned the part of the movie. Talking about his film to be a special film and a trendsetter in B Town, he said that he feels nice and proud to see a lady dominated film in the industry allowing other filmmakers to make films on the same lines with no male hero in it. So, what you have to say about the film and the performances of the leading ladies in it, do share about the same.
