One brilliant Hindi film in the recent years was Maqbool.
Shakespeare's Macbeth wonderfully adapted by Abbas Tyrewala. The locales,ethos was created

Watertight screenplay, you don't sit back at all. Jealousy, lust, hatred, camaraderie, vengeance, love and power were all portrayed elegantly. The movie is exceedingly well written.

Mindblowing performance from Tabu with equally good performance from Irrfan and Pankaj Kapoor. Tabu, in particular had to manage the delicate balance of playing the manipulator and the vulnerable one.Naseeruddin Shah and Om Puri as the cops (equivalent of the three witches in Macbeth) are hilarious.

The music score by Vishal Bharadwaj is a big plus. The flute piece in the background for the slow-motion murder sequence is on example of his innovative work.

Though the movie had a good box office run, it is yet to be regarded as classic that it is. Do check it out.
