But here is where " Why Cheat India " scores high marks. It succeeds avoiding the imbalance between topicality and engagingness by simply letting the actors be. The characters in this film exposing the scam of forged duplicate examinees don't quite develop into the explosive entities they promise to. Their working class psyche shines in their disability to generate spectacular drama. Hearts are broken, young lives are destroyed, marriages fall apart, and ambition dissolve... But life goes on. Director Soumik Sen sees life in trivia. In the way the characters speak of their unremarkable life, the film creates quite a remarkable litany of bustling boredom. Take for example the character of the protagonist Rakesh alias Rocky's wife. She is so immersed in her life of munda...
