The film does more than just document a “genre” story of a serial killer being pursued by a determined cop. The rich-poor divide is what gives this story its sick soul.

Wikipedia says that Sector 36 – written by Bodhayan Roychaudhury and directed by Aditya Nimbalkar – is “loosely based on [the] 2006 Noida serial murders also known as Nithari Killings”. But even with those true-life incidents as backdrop, the film does more than just document what happened. It goes beyond the genre of a serial killer being pursued by a determined cop. (These characters are played, respectively, by Vikrant Massey and Deepak Dobriyal). Take the fact that the serial killer likes to watch a Kaun Banega Creorepati-like game show. It could just be a time-marker: the 2000s, after all, is when the show kicked off and gripped the imagination of a nation. But there is also the sense of a dream: the dream that you could be the poorest of the poor, but by answering a few questions, “chand sawaal” as the film puts it, you can become a millionaire.
