No time for restraint in this scathing social drama
The New Indian Express Chennai
|February 21, 2026
T’S not like Anubhav Sinha is making a social drama for the first time.
In the last nine years, the persevering filmmaker has rebuilt his career on these grounds, with films like Mulk, Thappad, and Article 15. However, while the audience (and the market) for the genre has only shrunk in the last few years, it seems the barriers have only made the filmmaker more determined in his intent to make a dent, and that sense of urgency runs throughout Assi as an undercurrent.
