3/10
This rocket fails to launch
20 December 2014
Interesting concept and as unbelievable a goof-up the ruins the film. The script had potential to change the way suspense thrillers are made around here, and the director and the lousy set of actors had the audacity to leave it as just another such B-Grade movie that is more about the skin show than story. Karanveer, the protagonist has a real lot to learn in terms of acting to every be judged by critics, he is perfectly capable all by himself to destroy the film with the lack of effort for performing. Shraddha Das was as ordinary and invisible as her role was, she lacked the punch to make her presence felt for the role allotted to her. Barbie Handa was the best thing to come out of this mess. She has potential, but not sure with all the unnecessary skin show she is taking the right path to stardom. The director seemed to be one who would say 'CUT' to any pathetic performance, his sense of continuity, his skills at detailing and overall the understanding that is required to direct a sensible thriller is clearly lacking. There are so many loopholes for such an interesting script that one ends up feeling bad for the story writ Wasn't this a twisted version of "THE CRUSH"(1993)? Songs were good, cinematography not as good. Sense was missing too!
