Jabardasth Movie Update Review

Siddharth and Samantha’s ‘Jabardasth’ has released today across the world. The movie has been directed by Nandini Reddy and Bellamkonda Suresh is the producer. Thaman has composed the music. The film has been getting a decent buzz due to the presence of Samantha and due to Nandini Reddy’s previous film ‘Ala Modalaindi’.

Story :

The story of this film has been heavily inspired by the Bollywood hit ‘Band Bajaa Baraat’. Bairraju (Siddharth) is a perpetually bankrupt fellow who wants to get rich fast by trying his hand at various businesses. To escape from his creditors, he runs away to Bihar but his fortunes don’t change there either. He runs into trouble with the local strongman (Shayaji Shinde), who wants Bairraju to marry his sister. To escape from that scenario, Bairraju comes back to Hyderabad after a gap of 5 years.

He comes across Shreya (Samantha) at a wedding and secretly listens to her business plans. Shreya wants to set up a wedding planning agency and comes up with a scheme to learn the tools of the trade under top wedding planner Pinki Sharma. Armed with this information, Bairraju also approaches Pinki Sharma and reluctantly teams up with Shreya.

As time goes by, the duo decide to set up their own wedding planning company and they name it Shreyas Media. Business booms for a while but Bairraju’s extremely commercial nature creates differences between him and Shreya. A miffed Shreya kicks Bairraju out and he decides to start his own venture named ‘Bairraju Bampar Manazement’ (yes, that really is the spelling).

As competition between the two firms heats up, Saraswati ( Nithya Menon) comes in like a breath of fresh air into Bairraju’s life. Life looks rosy for Bairraju until fate throws in a cruel twist. What is that twist? Whom does Bairraju end up with? That forms the story of ‘Jabardasth’.

Plus Points :

Siddharth has tried his hand at mass comedy for the first time and he has tried his best. His dialogues in ‘butler english’ are funny. Samantha looks gorgeous as always and she has done a very good job in this film. Samantha has the power to steal hearts with her smile and she uses that to great effect in this movie.

The star of the film however is Nithya Menen. She is just brilliant as Saraswati and has commanding screen presence. In the song ‘Meghamala’, she looks just like veteran actress Savithri garu in Mayabazaar. The movie has good pace as long as Nithya is present and her character is what keeps the film alive.

Srihari, Dharmavarapu Subrahmanyam, Thagubothu Ramesh, Telangana Sakunthala, Shayaji Shinde and Vennela Kishore entertain to a certain extent.

All the songs in the film have been shot very colourfully. Picturization is particularly good for ‘Meghamaala’ and ‘Ninnilage’ songs.

Minus Points :

If you have seen ‘Band Bajaa Barat’, you will find ‘Jabardasth’ to be extremely predictable.

The interval block and the subsequent twists in the romantic track between Siddharth and Samantha could have been handled more effectively. There is no emotional depth in this love track and that is why it fizzles out towards the end.

The climax block is a bit slow, melodramatic and cliched. Some of the comedy scenes are not very effective.

Srihari manages to bring a few laughs as Don Javed Bhai, but this episode just does not gel with the rest of the story. The concept of bringing two Hyderabadi wedding planners all the way to Malaysia, to organize the wedding of the Don’s sister, seems a bit far fetched.

Technical Aspects :

Cinematography of the movie is good. Editing could have been better in the second half, especially in the closing stages of the movie. Dialogues are humorous. Production values are ok.

Nandini Reddy has only partially succeeded as a director this time. She has conceived a superb character for Nithya Menen but the brilliance seen in ‘Ala Modalaindi’ is missing. Screenplay could have been better.

Verdict :

Siddharth’s fresh characterization, Samantha’s glamour and Nithya Menen’s sterling performance make ‘Jabardasth’ a one time watch. The film’s predictable story line and lack of emotional depth prevent it from rising above the ordinary.

Movie Rating .............2.5/5

Kai Po Che Movie Update Review

Abhishek Kapoor who had stormed Bollywood with the National Award winning film ‘Rock On’ is back with his latest film ‘Kai Po Che’. This film is based on the bestseller ’3 Mistakes of my life’ by Chetan Bhagat and this film stars newcomers Sushant Singh Rajput and Amit Sadh alongwith Raj Kumar Yadav in the lead roles. The film is scheduled to release on 22nd February and we are pleased to bring you the movie’s review much in advance. So let’s see how Kai Po Che is.

Story :

Ishaan (Sushant Singh Rajput), Omi (Amit Sadh) and Govind (Raj Kumar Yadav) are best friends from Ahmadabad who share strong bond of brotherhood. Ishaan is a notorious lad and a cricket genius who eats drinks, sleeps and dreams only of cricket. Omi is the disciplined son of a priest who likes his own space even in the company of his friends while Govind is a pure businessman and a math scholar who thinks of nothing apart from money.

One fine day, Govind falls in love with Ishaan’s progressive sister Vidya (Amrita Puri) and takes care to keep their relationship under wraps from everyone. Soon, the trio starts their own sports academy with some financial help from Omi’s politician uncle.

Everything goes smoothly until a huge earthquake rocks Ahmadabad and this is soon followed by a Hindu-Muslim riot that destroys their dreams. This tragic upheaval also causes a major conflict between the three friends and the rest of the film is how the trio overcomes their problems, more importantly will they remain true to each other and fulfill their big dreams.

Positive Points :

We have come across earlier movies on male bonding such as ‘Dil Chahta Hai’, ‘Rang De Basanti’ and ‘3 Idiots’; however, ‘Kai Po Che’ promises and delivers flawlessly. Speaking of performances in this movie, we can say all the actors have given their 100% to make this film a heartwarming one. The movie doesn’t make one realize that this is Sushant Singh Rajput’s debut in Bollywood since he gives a grueling performance in the intense scenes and shows off his comic timing in the fun sequences. Amit Sadh is another debutante who delivers a surprising performance in the film and is absolutely disciplined in the first half and equally intense in the second.

Raj Kumar Yadav who has already known for his good performances in earlier outings manages to give his best with this one. The actor plays out business-minded lad outstandingly while his innocence and discomfited passionate shots that are the most charming. Amrita Puri plays a bubbly progressive girl with ease and she is only predominant female presence in the film.

Other impactful characters include Bittu Mama, Omi’s politically driven uncle, and Ali, Ishaan’s gifted student, who have fleshed out their characters well.

Negative Points :

There is not much to talk about in this section and all we can say is that love sequences between Govind and Vidya were a little over-the-top and could have been more interestingly portrayed. Some of the sequences between the friends seem to be inspired from other Bollywood films like ‘Rang De Basanti’ and ’3 Idiots’. Also, Kai Po Che does not have the standard popcorn or masala entertainment quotient of regular Bollywood flicks.

Technical Aspects :

There are just three songs in the entire movie which ensure that you rarely get a chance to take your eyes off the screen. ‘Manja’ clearly explains the bond between the three friends, whereas ‘Shubhaarambh’ and ‘Meethi Boliyan’ connect well with the screenplay instead of acting as speed-breakers. The music is by Amit Trivedi set to lyrics by Swanand Kirkere and this will definitely have a lasting impact on the audiences.

The screenplay by Abhishek Kapoor and Chetan Bhagat proves to be both appealing and impactful. Deepa Bhatia’s editing is engaging and keeps the flow engaging. While the first half of the film depicts fun and bonding between the buddies, the second part is equally interesting with all the ups and downs in their respective lives which are interconnected amongst them.

The climax is thought-provoking and will have a lasting effect even after you exit the theaters. Anay Goswamy’s cinematography completely captures the spirit of the film. Director Abhishek Kapoor hits the bulls eye as he makes Chetan Bhagat’s novel look better in every way. He stews a heady concoction of cricket, politics, romance and brotherhood in the movie and comes up with a balanced dish of all the elements.

Verdict :

Overall, ‘Kai Po Che’ is a film which is written, directed and acted supremely well. Stunning performances, amazing story telling and some simple and realistic emotions make you connect intensely with the film. Kai Po Che will surely go on to win a lot of accolades and awards in Bollywood, and is a film which is a must watch for everyone.

Movie Rating.........2.5/5

Murder 3 Movie Update Review

The ‘Murder’ series produced by Vishesh films is one of the most successful franchises in Bollywood. The last two editions were huge hits where the star cast was led by the Bhatt camp’s blue eyed boy Emraan Hashmi. In a major change, Randeep Hooda has replaced Emraan in this edition of ‘Murder 3’ which has been generating a buzz since it was announced. Randeep is cast opposite Aditi Rao Hydari and Sara Loren and the movie finally had a wide release today. The movie also marks the directorial debut of Vishesh Bhatt and let’s see how it is.

Story :

The movie starts off with Vikram(Randeep Hooda) and Roshni(Aditi Rao Hydari) as a happy couple based in South Africa. Soon, Vikram gets a good job offer in India and moves bag and baggage to Mumbai with Roshni. The couple move into a huge bungalow in Mumbai and re-start their lives and very soon Roshni finds out that Vikram is cheating on her and leaves him for good.

Vikram is distraught and files a missing person complaint with the cops and starts searching for her. As time passes by and with no clue on Roshni, Vikram slowly moves on with his life. He soon meets Nisha(Sara Loren) and they start dating and quickly enough start living together in Vikram’s house. Soon Nisha starts hearing weird sounds from the bathroom which terrifies her and makes her suspicious of Vikram.

Nisha is totally stressed out and starts bugging Vikram to know more of these spooky incidents, but is cold-shouldered by Vikram who ignores her. What is actually happening in the house? Why is Vikram silent on the whole issue and where is Roshni missing ? That forms the rest of the ‘Murder 3’.

Plus Points :

The script is the major advantage of this film. Though the story idea is inspired from a Hollywood film, it has been nicely adapted to the Indian nativity. Aditi Rao Hydari gets a meaty role to bite into and she does complete justice to the character with her acting skills. Randeep Hooda does not have much to do in the film and is apt for his character. New find, Sara Loren, makes a decent debut and looks ravishing.

The whole suspense element and the complete second half is quite interesting. Right when you think the first half has nothing to offer, and is yet another routine horror flick from the Bhatt’s, you are in for a huge twist. The film starts to move at a brisk pace and the thrilling moments will make you enjoy the film completely.

Negative Points :

Audience who come expecting a interesting murder mystery and some steamy scenes which the Muder brand associated with, are in for a huge disappointment. Murder 3 does not have any murder mystery or the so called steamy scenes, and most importantly there is no Emraan Hashmi in it.

Murder 3 is a intelligently made thriller, which has its ups and downs. Cinematic liberties have been taken in plenty, as there are many scenes which are clueless. First half of the film is quite routine and has the routine horror elements.

One gets the complete idea of the story once the suspense in revealed. Songs are a big let-down in Murder 3 and do not have a high recall value when compared to the earlier two films. Randeep Hooda’s characterization lacks justice and is used only for major scenes and that’s where you miss the comforting presence of Emraan Hashmi in the film.

Technical Aspects :

Murder 3 has decent technical effects. Dialogues are quite OK and have been well written. Lyrics of the song ‘Teri Har Nazaar’ are romantically written and has allows been shot well. The editing is quite average since many of the horror scenes seem to have rushed feeling that don’t convey the urgency of the scene.

Screenplay of the movie is good, and is particularly well drafted in the second half. Camera work is decent as the whole look of the movie has a decent feel. One can say that Vishesh Bhatt has chosen a decent subject and handled it quite well. Though the first half is slow, Vishesh raises the plot quiet interestingly.

He narrates important scenes in the second half quite beautifully. He has tried to mix all three elements such as horror, thrill and suspense in Murder 3 and has come out decently successful.

Verdict :

On the whole, Murder 3 is one film which has its highs and lows. An interesting suspense line and some thrilling moments are some positives. On the flip side, lack of a Murder mystery as the posters suggest, and a quiet predictable story are some negatives. Finally, if you erase the effect of Murder and Murder 2 from your mind, then Murder 2 is quite a decent watch..

Movie Rating...............3.5/5
