Om Mangalam – Kambakkhat Ishq

Om Mangalam – Kambakkhat Ishq.mp4

Some stories seem very interesting on paper, but lose their sheen on celluloid. That’s the problem with DEKH RE DEKH. The idea could’ve translated into an engrossing fare, but the story development as also its execution leaves a lot to be desired. Even its short running time doesn’t salvage the situation. Babli’s marriage in a rich family has already turned into a nightmare and she is back home after getting divorced. But a robbery involves her childhood friend Shyam into her plan; Shyam also is in need of money to bribe the minister for a government job. At this juncture, one more character joins them, Yadav, a struggling politician in need of money for his party fund to get ticket for election. Since they have no experience of robbery, they plan to involve a professional thief in the mission: Charan. DEKH RE DEKH establishes the characters well, but the screenplay unravels in such a casual manner that it becomes the biggest drawback as it moves further. One can never tell when the film rolls into flashback mode and back. It’s only later that you realize that there actually were flashbacks and by that time, you’ve already lost track of where the story is headed. The film’s tagline states ‘laughter behind darkness’ but neither does the film make you laugh, nor is it a dark subject from any angle. The comedy just doesn’t evoke mirth. Music is irksome. Vijay Raaz is the best of the lot. He’s excellent. Gracy Singh is plain average. Siddhartha Koirala is just about okay. Raghubir Yadav does a fine job. On the whole, DEKH RE DEKH is not the type that would catch the viewer’s eye.

There are times when you genuinely feel that there’s bankruptcy of ideas in Bollywood. And you feel strongly this when you watch a film like HUM PHIRR MILEINGE.
The recipe is simple. Add DILWALE DULHANIYA LE JAYENGE, QAYAMAT SE QAYAMAT TAK, HUM DIL DE CHUKE SANAM and KABHI KHUSHI KABHIE GHAM, shake it rigorously and presto, HUM PHIRR MILEINGE is ready to be served.
To put it bluntly, HUM PHIRR MILEINGE is archaic and outdated. You actually pinch yourself while watching this one. Is this real? Perhaps, director Manish Goel is completely clueless about the kind of cinema being made these days. The direction is unbelievably weak and so is the writing.
Write your own movie review of Hum Phirr Mileinge…
Frankly, nothing works in this film, except for a couple of tuneful songs [Sandesh Shandilya], which, sadly, show up even if there’s no situation.
Given its poor script, the actors go through their parts mechanically. It’s sad to see a talent like Sarwar Ahuja being reduced to such roles. Newcomer Kkhushi [veteran Tabassum's grand-daughter] gets no scope. Also, she could’ve done without those layers of makeup.
Vikram Gokhale and Smita Jaykar [Kkhushi's parents] and Kiran Kumar and Rati Agnihotri [Sarwar's parents] are stereotypical. The actress playing Kkhushi’s aunt is loud.
