‘Lost’: 5 Moments From Yami Gautam’s Film Which Depicts The Rawness Of Journalism

A crime journalist’s career has always been eyed upon whether it’s for the right or the wrong reasons. A journalist is always under the radar of politicians, businessmen, and powerful people across the country. Recently, ‘Lost’ starring Yami Gautam went on to depict the real, raw and relatable side of journalism and the repercussions an investigator has to face for writing the truth. Even though the movie ended up being slightly stretched and a bit of a drag in the middle, the basic essence of journalism was very nicely depicted in the film.

For the unversed, based on the backdrop of Kolkata, Yami Gautam portrays the character of an investigative crime journalist with courage and strength.

Let’s have a look at a few moments from the film where Yami Gautam manages to bring out the rawness of journalism brilliantly on screen:

• Vidhi Sahani fights with the police officials to investigate the missing case but when her pleas fall on deaf ears, she takes it upon herself and investigates the case in search of the truth.
• When Vidhi Sahani gives a tough fight to politician Ranjan Varman [played by Rahul Khanna] to collect evidence.
• Vidhi goes out of her way to discover the truth. From chasing the leads to walking through cramped alleys and talking to sources, she does it all.
• Despite receiving threats to stop working on the story, Vidhi doesn’t get scared and doesn’t back off but boldly goes ahead with her investigation with the support of her grandfather.
• Despite multiple obstacles, political pressure, goons, blackmailing and more, the movie establishes a journalist as a knight in shining armour! The world needs more fearless women like Vidhi who break the glass ceiling with their unconventional choices and make our nation beam with pride.
