There's Samir Soni, too, as Emraan's boss and Krystle's onscreen husband, but his overacting can just be ignored.Ĭhehre can't be called a thrilling courtroom drama. Krystle D'Souza (Natasha Oswal) for her first big screen outing looks quite impressive. So is Siddhanth Kapoor (Joe), who can't speak. Rhea Chakraborty (Anna), the mysterious house help and painter, is wasted playing a half-baked character that doesn't let her do much. Annu Kapoor, too, spruces things up with his Punjabi accent. Watch Kartik Aaryan's monologue from Pyaar Ka Punchnama would be a better alternative to this preachiness.Īlso read: Gulabo Sitabo movie review: Amitabh Bachchan, Ayushmann Khurrana’s Amazon Prime film is as flavourful as Lucknawi biryaniĪmitabh and Emraan's face-off sequences are exciting. All this is coming from a good place, but the execution has serious issues. From the Nirbhaya rape case and the plight of acid attack victims to the Uri surgical strikes and Indo-Pak tensions, he touches on everything under the sun in one breath, without getting to the actual point.
Here, I want to mention the approximately 7-minute long monologue that Amitabh Bachchan delivers. However, some one-liners do trigger laughs. There's a lot of 'shayari' too, but you can only enjoy these Hindi literature lectures to a point. The dialogues, co-written by Rumi and Ranjit, are so heavy-handed that they tend to get burdened by their own weight. You wish there was some more thought given to the editing, and maybe then it could have been a crisper watch. The special effects were created by Brock Jolliffe. On many occasions, the story written by Ranjit Kapoor comes across as unconventional, but sadly, just when things are looking exciting, it gets so stretched that it ends up losing its momentum. Danielle Steels A Perfect Stranger, also known as A Perfect Stranger is a 1994 American romantic-drama television film directed by Michael Miller, whose most important element is the love triangle which characterizes it. It's engrossingly shot but the twists, at times, are so predictable. And that's the build-up we see for almost two hours and 20 minutes when Sameer is tried for murdering his boss.Ĭhehre is a thriller that fails to thrill. In this court of law, which they like to call 'real game', there is no 'insaaf' but 'faisla' - no justice, only judgement. Together, these four men create a lot of drama, deliver high-pitched lines, but it all goes through major turbulence before they have a smooth landing. Amitabh Bachchan is the eccentric public prosecutor Lateef Zaidi, Annu Kapoor the funnily serious defence lawyer Paramjeet Singh Bhuller, Dhritiman Chatterjee as the straight-faced judge Justice Jagdish Acharya, and Raghubir Yadav plays the ever-excited prosecutor Hariya Jatav.
