I really like this film. The story line has a very powerful message and should be watched by everyone. We need more movies like this in Bollywood. Excellent acting by everyone, Mr.Shah, Mr.Warsi, and even the girl who plays the daughter! It was nice to see Sagarika in the movie, she was brilliant!
This movie deals with some profound aspects of life which We are missing blindly. The writer tried to be very convincing to get the roots of a story but the direction is not that much of dedication but It's OK for the Overall Message. Sometimes it attracts attention towards many provocative yet Realistic things in Indian Politics and Administration. Must learn from such small aspects of it. The confidence level of actors are not that much good, It could have been improved but a Great comeback from Arshad and Nice acting from Divya Datta (She really Nailed it, at least in a couple of scenes). Once again Usefulness of Army and Administration can be used to clean up the mess as movie urges through its vivid aspects. Silence of The Himalaya tells many unspoken Words that can be Heard by Only those who Actually Watched it from Right Angle :)
I was attracted to Irada just by its synopsis. Make no mistake irada has a very impressive storyline, but the problem lies with its Bollywood style of masala filmmaking. Irada has some very good moments and does frequently fill in the audience's minds with curiosity. But the film as a whole doesn't impress much and is filled with lot of plot holes.
A very bad screenplay, riddled with plot holes spoils an excellent story. Wonderful performances from Arshad Warsi, Divya Dutta and Nasruddin Shah is not enough to keep Irada afloat. Good cinematography adds another feather in Irada's cap. Background score was very peculiar with fantastic & awful music equally mixed together.
Sometimes the movie looks like it has had multiple directors, as a result by which Irada has some excellent, average and poor scenes all mixed up together. The movie gains excellent momentum in certain scenes, only to fall apart in the next scene. Some Sentimental scenes were gripping and excellent. On the whole Irada is a very average one time watch movie. A movie which can be watched with family is strictly to be watched only when you have nothing else to watch. 4 stars only, 1 star for the storyline.

Disclosure: I am a huge fan of Naseeruddin Shah as well as Arshad Warsi.
Irada is a hard hitting movie that really gets the message home - the cost of "progress" is too high to pay.

This is not a movie for the people who like commercial films with masala (a bit of everything in the movie and an ITEM NUMBER). Its a very nice movie made upon a serious issue that is poisoning the Indian Nation and also other countries in Asia and Africa.
The Govt of Asia/Africa should take a stand and more action to stop the issue shown in the movie.
Without spoiling the movie. The story is good. The first half could have been written better but its not bad. The film takes off in the second half and the ending is a bit rushed. Very enjoyable movie.
Performances of all lead actors are good. Nice to see Arshad in a good role after a long time. Naseer was at his magical best as well.
Must see...

- TriviaThis is the fourth film of Arshad Warsi and Naseeruddin Shah together. Previously they have acted in Mujhe Meri Biwi Se Bachaao (2001), Ishqiya (2010), Dedh Ishqiya (2014).
- GoofsAfter Sagarika Ghatke throws ink on Sharad's face, Sharad says "fools rush in where angels fear to tread" and that it was said by Shakespeare. But actually these lines were first written by Alexander Pope not Shakespeare.
