Cute Bhoomika is the only Saving Grace

Storyline: If at all there was a story, I could write about storyline. The movie has the same old formula where College goers Siddharth (Abhishek Bacchhan) and Jahnavi (Bhoomika) fall in love at first sight and Jahnavi's evil brother Ganpat (Mahesh Manjerekar) will go to any length to prevent any evil eye on his sister. I will leave it here since anyone can predict the rest of the story.

Comment: Pathetic Movie. If you feel that money and time have no worth, you can watch it in a movie hall. If you want to save money and have lots of time to spare, you can watch it on a VCD. Watching it on a VCD can spare you of the trouble of bearing through all the scenes. At least you can forward some of them.

Abhishek Bacchhan has the same look and feel as in all his movies. He hasn't improved much. Bhoomika is surely cute/sweet. She looks good with a bindi and her hair open. As far as acting is concerned, it's fairly average. Mahesh Manjerekar has, among the other actors, performed relatively well. Actually, the story is so very predictable that you wouldn't want to appreciate anybody's performances.

As far as comedy is concerned, Vijay Raaz has overacted in his roles. Rather than blaming him, it is better to blame the story writer, dialogue writer and the director. Music is listless except the title song "zara zara". In this song, it seems as if AB Jr and Bhoomika are competing for the "worst dancer" award!! Warning: Don't watch it in a movie hall. You don't get a chance to forward the scenes that you don't like.
