Chakravyuh - a wonderful movie highlighting the Naxalite problem

Watched movie 'Chakravyuh' of Prakash Jha. Prakash Jha is one of the best directors who raises the socio-political issues on the cinema screen very effectively.  His attempt always remains towards bringing the real issues that our country is witnessing on the fore. Shool and Gangajal are some of his movies I greatly admire.  Rajniti was probably his last hit.   Chakravyuh is again a movie in which he has depicted the plight of poverty, the life of the poor in remote villages, and the disparity of income among rich and poor that has resulted into naxalite movmement that has taken hundreds of districts of many states of our nation in last few decades since our freedom.
This is a story of two friends, one a Superintendent of police and the other who is his childhood friend who both meet after a long gap.  The former sends him as an impostor to the naxalite group to get the inside information and in the process wipe it out. But reaching in that group, how a police informer's heart changes looking at the real issues which from outside hardly one can understand and that is how he becomes the commander of the group after police tortures the women and children and arrest the erstwhile leader of their group. He becomes even dreaded for the police then.  The scenes are mind blowing and there are some of the moments that really shake you from inside and sometimes even make you like crying. You would be compelled to think why our country is grappling with such imbalance? Why have we failed to make an inclusive growth? Why more than 70 percent of our population as quoted in this movie has been rendered to live their lives on less than Rs. 20 a day. Why????  Why a friend kills his own childhood friend? Why our own army has to fight with our own people? Why thousands of people have been killed in this fight for years? Any answers please..
