Director
Anurag
Kashyap
has
always
managed
to
be
something
different,
new
and
meaningful
when
it
comes
to
the
stories
of
his
movies.
His
movies
are
dark,
broody
and
psychological
anxiety
in
form
and
meaning.
The
Bollywood
helmer's
latest
movie
That
Girl
in
Yellow
Boots
is
not
an
exception.
It
is
a
fine
specimen
of
his
style
of
filmmaking.
It
is
an
artistic
and
wholesome
experience.
That
Girl
in
Yellow
Boots
is
a
tragic
tale
of
British
girl,
who
has
come
to
India
in
search
of
her
estranged
father.
The
movie
has
been
superbly
crafted
and
wonderfully
acted.
It
is
a
dark,
dismal
and
desperate
portrait
of
life
inside
Mumbai,
where
Ruth
hopes
to
find
salvation
and
a
father.
The
movie
also
throws
light
on
incest
and
sexual
abuse,
which
have
become
an
intrinsic
part
of
our
society.
Ruth
(Kalki
Koechlin)
is
a
girl
from
England
and
has
come
to
Mumbai
to
find
her
Indian
father,
who
abandoned
her
family
when
she
was
a
kid.
She
is
without
a
work
permit,
which
drives
her
to
work
at
a
massage
parlour.
She
starts
dating
a
drug
addict
Prashant
(Prashant
Prakash).
A
city
that
feeds
on
her
misery,
a
love
that
eludes
her
and
above
all,
a
devastating
truth
that
she
must
encounter.
And
everyone
wants
a
piece
of
her.
Will
she
find
her
father
or
not?
This
will
be
answered
in
the
climax.
As
Ruth,
Kalki
has
delivered
a
wonderful
performance
and
she
has
lived
up
to
the
expectations
of
her
role.
Naseeruddin
Shah,
Prashant
and
Gulshan
have
also
added
a
lot
of
depth
and
conviction
to
their
characters.
Naren
Chandavarkar
and
Benedict
Taylor's
music,
Rajeev
Ravi's
cinematography
and
Shweta
Venkat
Mathew's
editing
also
commendable.
