Qaid: No Wayyy Out

I must say filmmaker is commendable the way reality is presented. A very important and brave message to share. This is very true and everyone must watch it once. There is still a huge stigma attached to males reporting abuse whatever their sexual orientation is. Not only an amazing production but a very well thought concept. If only all films were like this. Impressive to say the least. It also proves that a good story doesn't really need a big cast. The story itself keeps you on the edge and you makes you keep wonder what's next. Some scenes are so relatable and I have seen them around. Writer has done a good research. The songs are so soothing. Well done to the makers. A must watch film.

Qaid is a spine chilling movie and an absolute eye opener. Ofcourse I have seen and heard domestic violence in my life. Wives getting bitten up by husbands and what not but I never ever thought a man can suffer the same way.

Jigar leaving his country in attempt of a better life but one can not even imagine that he would face the same brutality that his mother has been suffering all her life. The only difference is his culprit is his own boyfriend Mihir.

Where Mohinder Kohli has played Jigar's part miraculously, Tai Khan's performance will make audience hate Mihir it's that powerful. The story's past and present run in parallel making the story even more engaging and generates curiosity.

Overall the way story shows domestic violence is spine chilling.

Highly recommended.

I recently watched it in a screening with some friends.

From storyline to music, romantic to action scenes and from direction to quality of acting, everything in this film is so brilliantly portrayed and executed. Don't be fooled by the slow start and the running time of around 2.5 hours, every scene has a meaning and everything makes sense.

New faces and yet both actors have nailed their parts. Quality of acting is superb in fact 100% better than some of the A level cast.

The intimate scenes in the movie are so beautifully filmed and doesn't feel forced and does not make viewers unconformable at all. The first quarter may feel slow but as the story proceeds it picks up momentum ties up the viewers. The climax is impressive and full of unexpected twists and turns.

In summary, it's very fresh and unique concept, which audience will appreciate. One of the most aesthetically filmed Hindi LGBTQ movie.

Qaid...no way out is a superb film!!!...For a film with a gay story line and absolutely shocking violence, is surprising to know, that it has a female director ......The direction by Sonia is first rate.!....The main leads Mohinder Kholi and Tai Khan are terrific!!!...The film depicts the domestic violence that we all have seen or heard about near us but failed to address..The film addresses that domestic violence in a brutal way!!!...They could have edited out some of the long scenes of other character artistes which prolonged the film..The film could have been a bit crisper..but otherwise it kept you tied to the story pretty well! .. On the whole a fantastic film...!!!

Great film. Domestic violence in gay community really exists and this film does a good job in telling that. Exactly that. Methodical acting by the leads and supporting cast does the justice to their parts too.

Finally a great content on DV. Beginning could have been just a little crispier but content really is the king here. I recently watched a film called 'Do Patti' which reminded me of QAID as I watched in one of the festivals last year. Both films are on DV but Qaid is a real stealer for me. Direction, storytelling, acting everything commendable compared to Do Patti.

Qaid is inspirational and thought provoking, sensibly displays the pattern of DV. Highly recommended. A must watch.
