I Loved Sonia..and her indomitable spirit. Love Sonia is a sweeping ballad to the human spirit and a no holds barred view of the human trafficking industry. Industry it truly is where women are sold and transported as commodities and there is no place for emotions or consent for that matter. Director Tabrez Noorani mounts Love Sonia on a grand scale and takes us from a village in Maharashtra to Mumbai to Hongkong before finally taking a pitstop at LA. The film has some terrific actors and each of them make their presence felt even in the minutest of roles. But it is Mrunal Thakur as Sonia who carries the film on her shoulders. Hers is an electrifying performance and I cant wait to watch her next few films. Riya Sisodiya as Preeti is likeable in the few scenes that she stars in. It is Sonia's search for Preeti that gives the film its reason. Manoj Bajpayee as the pimp is ruthlessly brilliant. The scene where he pimps off Sonia in exchange for a cigarette is sure to make your blood boil. Richa Chadha as Madhuri is terrific. Her role has various shades to it. Sai Tamhankar, Rajkummar Rao, Frieda Pinto, Anupam Kher, Adil Hussain, Demi Moore, Mark Duplass and Kiran Khoje all deliver knockout performances and take Love Sonia to the next level. But it is the terrific production design and the raw frames that gives Love Sonia its power. Cinematographer Lucas Bielan zooms into the dirt and grime of a Mumbai brothel leaving you with much to ponder about. Tabrez Noorani who produced Slumdog Millionaire is truly magnificent in his first directorial effort. Although this isnt as great as Salaam Bombay , it still is a film that deserves a watch. We often take our lives for granted. Love Sonia is that film that will make you realize how privileged you are to live the kind of life that you do. Let's do our bit to save the Sonias of this world. . .

Mrunal Thakur was the biggest prankster on the sets of 'Love Sonia' - Tabrez Noorani’s 'Love Sonia', a film that took closely 13 years to actualize will be hitting the theatres on September 14th. While the theme of the film may be hard-hitting, Mrunal Thakur ensured the environment on set remained light and happy by playing pranks with everyone. One such incident was when Mrunal played a prank on Sai Tamhankar’s spot boy. “Shooting in the scorching locales of Grant Road, Mrunal kept a water spray in handy always. This time, instead of cooling her face, she aimed for the spot boy. She pretended to sneeze on his face when actually it was just the water spray doing its wonders! The mighty prankster, Mrunal targeted every member on set and got away with it each time! The spot boy’s face fell but Sai continued to play along. Nevertheless, all’s well that ends well, everyone was all smiles by the end of this comical episode”, said a source.
