It has been one of the most twisted murder cases in India. The Arushi - Hemraj double murder. There have been plenty debates on who the real culprits were, and if the parents were innocent. What was unanimously however agreed upon is that the police investigation was sloppy and left questions unanswered. Mystery remained in minds people, and created a fertile ground for a film to be woven around it. Unsurprisingly, Talvar is the second film based on the murders; the first - Rahasya - released early in the year. How different could two films be on the same topic? Quite!

Talvar sticks to the real life case... although seemingly guided by a vision that is pre-determined. While as a film Talvar does not quite aim to take a stand, it somehow does. Probably due to an attempt to create a larger than life heroic character, or simple will to do so.
Talwar kicks off with CDI (Read CBI) Joint Director Ashwini Kumar (Irrfan) taking over the murder case from the UP Police, which had already made a mess out of it. As he reinvestigates it, Ashwini finds discrepancies in the initial investigation and draws a conclusion that the parents' version could very well be true. Especially after microanalysis test of domestic help throw light of other possibilities.
