Spoiler Warning: This section has additional observations, other than the ones noted in the main review. It may have some details that could distort your experience while watching the movie.
Story:
Rahul Bedi (Jimmy Shergill) meets Sanjeev Rai (Kay Kay Menon) on a train and wants to spend his journey in getting to know his fellow-passenger. What their conversation is all about is for you to find out.
What worked:
- Use of black and white snapshot to show transitions from one time to another
- The comment, “that’s what happens to great plays”. Sounded like the director is convincing himself that his movie is great in anticipation of a low show to his movie.
What didn’t:
- The fast-paced editing in the climax. The contrast with the rest of the movie gives the climax a very jerky feel.
Nitty-gritty:
- The mention tequila bottle and what is shown on screen is a wine/champagne bottle. And of course they looked too sober for a couple who have downed a bottle of tequila.
b>Rating: Wait for video release
Rating Scale (best to worst):
• Must see - on the big screen
• Watch for sure, preferably in theatre
• Wait for video release
• Watch if you have nothing better to do
• Switch channels if it’s on cable!
