EXCLUSIVE REVIEW BY HANUMANT BHANSALI
Vikram Bhatt’s thriller Three- Love, Lies, Betrayal, directed by Vishal Pandya is a story about three people – Rajeev Dutt (Akshay Kapoor), his wife Mrs.Anjini Dutt (Naushad Ali Sardar) and a tenant in their house Sanjay (Ashish Chowdhry).
The story revolves around Anjini Dutt (Naushad Ali Sardar) who is married to Rajeev Dutt. Anjini, a violin teacher runs the house through her earnings. Rajeev is unable to earn much so he lives on his wife’s money. This inability of Rajeev to earn much, sets an ego between him and his wife, and is the reason for Rajeev’s frustration that keeps him angry all the time.
Eventually one fine day, Rajeev asks Anjini to sell her house and give him money for investing in some business. However Anjini refuses as the house was the only connection to her parents who are no more. Nevertheless she decides to help her husband by giving a portion of her house on rent and giving him this money for investment in business.
With Sanjay’s (Ashish Chowdhry) entry in their house takes a tremendous turn and the thrill starts. Slowly Sanjay learns about the ongoing tension between the couple and he starts sympathizing Anjini. His sympathy ignites love in Anjini and she falls for Sanjay.
The rest of the film tries to unfold the triangle love story between Anjini, Sanjay and Rajeev
Vishal Pandya’s direction is amazing and highly appreciating. A true masterpiece on his debut and has left no stone unturned. However commenting on the script, it could have been more powerful and interesting.
Music is just below average and the lyrics are ordinary. Raju Rao’s background score adds more excitement and inquisitiveness to the movie. The dialogues by Vikram Bhatt are influential and extremely remarkable.
Naushad’s acting is fairly convincing, Akshay Kapoor is decent and for the first time you will see Ashish Chowdhry in some serious role.
On the whole Three is an above average movie and will be interesting to see how it fairs in the multiplexes.
Radiosargam Movie Rating: 6/10
