I saw Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna (KANK) a couple days ago. Karan Johar (The Director) has given a couple of my most favorite Bollywood movies (Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, and Kabhi Kushi Kabhi Gham) in the past. So I went to the theater expecting a typical, awesome 3 hour Karan Johar ride, even though I was warned earlier by my friends, and reviews. But it was Karan Johar getting together with Amithabh Bachan (Big B!), Abhisekh Bachan, Shah Rukh Khan (SRK), Rani Mukherjee, and Priety Zinta, how bad could it be? Unfortunatly I was in for a Big Dissappointment. Unless you've been on Mars, you surely know the storyline for KANK. It's about SRK and Rani's Extramarital Affair, and SRK is married to Priety Zinta and Rani is married to Abhishekh Bachan.
First lets start by listing the Negative Aspects of the Movie:
The main reason I don't like the movie, isn't because of the numerous flaws in the Storyline (what Movie doesn't have flaws?) but the Presentation and screenplay!
* The Movie takes a whole CENTURY to end!!
* The Audience Don't Feel Any Sort Of Sympathy For Either Of The Infidels (SRK and Rani) I mean, Rani has like the Adorable Husband, and Priety is the Awesome Wife! (yeah, she'z @ work all the time, but who the hell is supposd to put food on teh table? SRK with his Crippled foot, and Soccer Coaching job which is often misses because he's busy flirting with Rani?! )
* There is NO ENTERTAININMENT!! The Movie like I said, takes a Century to End! SRK is Missing his Charm, that Magic that ppl like in him so much is NON EXISTENT in this movie! Karan Johar is Known for Family Entertainments which Rock like Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, and Kabhi Kushi Kabhi Gham! I was a Karan Johar Fan until I saw this movie!
* I agree taht Some movies are seen not because they're Entertaining, but because they're classy (Like Mahanadhi (tamil), Hey! Ram, Anbe Sivam(tamil) *actually I found AS and Mahanadhi and Hey! Ram entertaining*)..
.But KANK isn't even Classy! There isn't a Solid Reason for Rani to Repel Abishek at all, he just seems to be the best husband any woman could have!! That is a good example of one out of the...oh...gazillion flaws in the movie.Positive Aspects:
BIG B!!!!! - HE ROCKED!!! His scenes were amoung the few scnes in the movie which was actually enjoyable! (isn't worth going to the movie though, his performance in the whole movie falls under....15 mins, and that's including the songs! )
Songs - The Songs were pretty Good! I liked all of them! Espicially "Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna, Mitwaa, and Rock and Roll Soniye." But even for that...U can buy the CD..not really picturized all that well except for Mitwaa
in my opinion.Abhishek Bachan - There is something abuot this fella...he's awesome! He excels in the movie! I don't see why though...he's given a fairly small role compared to SRK and Rani, but even in that he ends up impressing the audeince! Basically, The Magic and Charm that was non-existent in SRK, is all there and present in Abhisek Bachan!
Preity Zinta - She was as she is always. Good Acting, She looks Stunning, and her dance as usual rocks!
That Basically Sums UP The Movie...Only Positive Aspects Being Songs, and the Bachans and Priety. The 50 hour drag which is what the movie is, isn't worth it just for these four things!
Karan Johar has Dissappointed his fans!
