Bhatts claim Awarapan as the costliest film ever made under their banners with an overall budget of 20 crores. The digital enhancements are overboard and the photography is ordinary. Akiv Ali’s editing needs some polishing.
Music gels well with the story. One hardly remembers the tunes other than Toh Phir Aao, which is already creating raves at the musical chartbusters. Dialogues are bound to make you crave for more. Fantastic!
Emraan emerges as a powerhouse of talent with this one and he performs splendidly. Shreya Saran makes an impressive debut with her small role. Ashutosh Rana is a magnificent performer. He easily qualifies as one of the most underrated actors of Bollywood. Mrinalini does a god job, barring her moves in the dance sequence. Purab Kohli darkens the screen with his presence. He is good. Shaad does well in his second appearance after Woh Lamhe.
The film will attract fairly discriminated views in terms of totality. The business at the box office will grow steadily as the film is well made and strong after release publicity should pep up its financial numbers.
