Recently one or two comments got me thinking.... maybe I should be more careful about my expressions out here... who knows there maybe a director or two reading this one.. they will not give my movie a chance when it does come out someday! :-)

Anyways, even after reading reviews and word of mouth requests to reject this movie, I went ahead and watched it at home.. hoping that there would be something in it....

What's new?
I could not think of anything. The usual love triangle, a twist in the tale, some betrayal, some partners in crime, seem to have heard this before? Just pick out a movie from the store at random, chances are, you'll see all these elements in varying proportions! I am not sure if an internet bank robbery has been portrayed in Hindi movies before... but there's got to be atleast something close.

Noticeable
Kariena Kapoor has been one of my most hated actresses.. irrespective of her shape or attire. Her konashttais are enough to keep me away! But in this movie, she was somewhat toned down. Maybe she's growing up too, but she'll never grow on me!

Medium
VHS @ Home

Verdict
Nothing special... if you HAVE to spend a dollar... donate it to the AIDS foundation or CRY or something.. if you absolutely HAVE to take a movie, please try something else... but if you are a Kariena fan.. you may have already seen it... Chinmaya, you seen this yet?
