Nothing special in the Effects and run of the mill "Badla" story

We went to see the movie as we had liked the effects in the teaser, because Emraan Hashmi movies are usually good and because it was in 3d. Thought the whole thing would be fun to watch.

Sadly the effects were a copy of hollow man and thus did not appeal. There was no creativity. The guy would switch his invisibility on and off as if there was a defect in his invisibility and no control. The effect of carrying his girl while being invisible was the only new good effect but was already a part of the teaser.

The story was run of the mill "badla" one and not expected from Vikram Bhatt. Effects do not make a movie but there should be a good story.

The songs were irritating and the singer sounds like he has woken up from his sleep and started to sing. The lady's voice was auto tuned. So nothing much was achieved in the music department. The song "you can call me X" was like giving an option to the audience.

The worse thing was that we saw this movie in "Starcity Matunga". We were made to pay 15 bucks for a pair of 3d glasses that we can keep. Unfortunately the glasses were so cheap that there was no 3d effect in some. only half my family was able to see 3d. Even after exchanging the glasses 3 or 4 times we could not see 3d. The staff in the theater were kind enough to help us exchange the glasses but the quality of the glasses had not been tested.

Emraan Hashmi is advised to use his good discretionary powers to only act in good movies and not trust the people who sell him special effects. Also he could select a good boy image, There was nothing much in performances of the other actors. The reason why the invisibility happen was stupid and not convincing. Maybe the twist with which the villain is exposed was the only bit of intelligence in the movie.
