Newton (India)
Newton has broken attendance records for an independent and non-Bollywood film at the box office. Directed by Amit Masurkar -who also wrote the screenplay - Newton centers on Newton Kumar, a rookie government clerk who is sent off to a village in the jungles of Chhattisgarh to oversee and set up the election process, not an easy task as the place is under the control of the Naxalysists (Communists).
