One fine Friday arrives and suddenly I end up in theatre watching a movie of which i hadn't even seen a trailer and had no idea whatsoever about what I am gonna face. And the experience yet again turned out to be non impressive. A great concept combined with an utterly slow screenplay ends up in a dull spice less platter served to you with lots of sound and steam coming off but tasting just like any other plain dish.
There were several positives too. The whole concept, though not unpredictable was narrated in a well woven plot. This movie churned out some brilliant performances especially Nishikant Kamat. He was excellent in his change of expressions displaying the different modes of his character. Imad Shah was good and did his job well. He definitely has the ways of his father from looks to his style to dialogue delivery and is sure to be one of the most sought actors of bollywood in upcoming years. Newcomer Rajvir Arora justified his character to a great extent. Satish Koushik as usual is funny while Tisca looks gorgeous in her professor avatar.
The whole idea was to present the thought that, "Everything is in the mind". Whatever you see, feel, and perceive is actually what your brain wants to see or makes you believe. Though the climax suggests a dual ending depending on the way the viewer perceives it.
The cinematography is good for a psycho thriller. Background score could have been much better to support the theme. The main troublesome area was the length of the movie. There were large parts of the movie that could have been edited to make it shorter. Such a huge length even made you feel sleepy at times. The director tried hard to maintain the suspense till the end, though if you've seen plenty of such English movies, you can easily guess the build-up of the plot. This movie had somewhat mixed effects on my mind and I would recommend you to go for it only if you have some extra bucks in your pocket and its kinda hurting you.
My Rating: 6/10
