Critics Are Calling This Indian Thriller Raw, Relentless, And Unmissable
Stolen is the new Indian thriller that's quickly becoming one of the most talked-about releases of the year. Directed by Karan Tejpal and starring Abhishek Banerjee in a tense, layered performance, the film is backed by producers like Anurag Kashyap and Kiran Rao. It had its global premiere at the Venice Film Festival before landing on Prime Video, and it hasn't stopped making waves since.
Set largely at a remote railway station in rural India, the film follows two brothers who witness a baby being kidnapped, only to find themselves blamed for it. As the situation spirals and a mob gathers, the movie dives headfirst into questions of fear, class, and how quickly things fall apart when facts don't matter.
Here's why Stolen has critics and viewers calling it one of the most urgent Indian films in recent memory:
Rishabh Suri, Hindustan Times
Abhishek Srivastava, Entertainment Times
Rahul Desai, Hollywood Reporter India
Rashmi Vasudeva, Deccan Herald
Sajin Shrijith, The Week
Rachit Gupta, Filmfare
Nandini Ramnath, Scroll
Gaurang Chauhan, MensXP
Stolen is available to watch on Amazon Prime Video.
