2.5/5

The film comes out just ahead of Irrfan Khan’s third death anniversary, and it brings us face to face, once again, with an actor non-pareil, whose absence grows sharper with each passing day.

Generally speaking, the film suffers from a somewhat fuzzy storytelling style.

It's easy to get seduced by the sumptuous cinematography of "The Song of Scorpions," but all that beauty becomes mere window-dressing since the script is too weak to support the potentially interesting story.

The Song of Scorpions is designed as a folktale. The setting is the unending sand dunes of Rajasthan and the pace is hypnotically sluggish. Science here has not dented the hold of superstition.

Farahani fits in and stands out at once, a testament to the film’s Shakespearean marriage of towering texture and tumultuous truth.
