Phoonk

Once again Ram Gopal Verma dared… I am again spotting it, DARED to experiment with the fear! The movie Phoonk released on 22nd Aug 2008 has proved how good Ramu is making people think what could an ordinary object can do. I am saying this because in the whole movie after every instance the camera is focused on something which has litterally no relevance!! Ok.. that was a taunt but it gave a different feel to the movie.

I will not say anything about the story as it was all same old stories of black magic, people using bones and lemon for doing it and all but the thing which make this movie different and watchable is the comments of the people around you and theater if you love to watch it sitting calm and quite and don’t want to comment on any scene.

Let me share the whole 2 hours of the movie with you. As I reached the theater I was in deep anger with the “Late latifi” of a very good friend of mine “Nishkam” but anyway, I will not blame him for that day as he got hit with some car. God’s grace he was alright. Anyway, we entered the theater after 8 minutes of loss of a small 2 hour movie. We managed to get the seats in a minute or so and then the games begins. The girls sitting next to me were like chatterbox and kept of chit-chit in the whole 1 hour till the Interval came after which Nishkam switched the seats with me. Anyway, I am not here to tell you that all but to tell you about the movie. The actors of the movie have done a great job especially Ahsaas who played Raksha, the small girl in the movie.Sudeep and Amruta who played husband and wife in the movie are also good as actor. Another character who really impressed me was Mani played by Javed Rizvi who came in end and rescued the child from Black magic. Role of Madhu played by Ashwini Khalsekar is MIND BLOWING as I have seen her work on TV and movies and she is as always as perfect for all kind of roles. Kenny Desai (Anshuman) have very small role and you can say it was a kind of injustice with the boy as he was not able to show his skills in the movie. The expressions, dialogue delivery, work everything was perfect in case of Ahsaas!

You can only enjoy the chit chat but not the movie. From my side I can only give 1/5 to the movie but if you want to enjoy with your friends and want to make fun of Ramu you can always go there and watch it but in theater as PIRACY IS ILLEGAL.

So watch, laugh and enjoy the group watch as DARNA MANA HAI NA!!!
