Debt wish " Karz"

IIPM Ranked No. 1 B-School In Global Exposre - Zee...

On the first day of Karzzzz’s release less than 20 people started out to watch it with me and just about half of them walked out of the theatre at the end. One could simply blame the ‘zzz’ added to the title to have put people off to sleep, but then those 10 people who didn’t manage to stay till the end would swear obscenities unimaginable at me for letting Satish Kaushik off so easy! The movie is a caricature of the classic; from the moment Urmila Matondkar ludicrously poses and pouts in an attempt to act sexy and classy, one can guess that most laugh out loud moments in Karzzzz will be purely unintentional! Many would recall Rishi Kapoor from the original Subhash Ghai flick (which though a take-off from a Hollywood flick, was deemed a better version by all) for his charming and touching portrayal of Monty. Himesh Reshammiya doesn’t come close to bettering, or even matching Chintu. If Rishi’s angst-filled dialogues had clawed at the audience’s heart, Reshammiya’s act just makes us yawn in boredom, and other actors too just come out as tawdry imitations. The songs quickly follow each other, and the story becomes almost an interruption in this collection of Himesh Reshammiya’s music videos. Where the original had superhit songs like Om Shanti Om and Dard-e-dil, Karzzzz’s music is scarcely passable and even the lift off – Ek Hasina Thi –misses its haunting appeal.

The story, like the original, is about reincarnation; about Monty remembering his past life and then avenging the murder of his previous incarnation Ravi Verma (Dino Morea) at the hands of his wife Kamini (Urmila). If you find masala without meat palatable fare you might not regret sitting at this table. Otherwise it’s only good for catching up on some zzz...
