Come Back Aksh
A few analysts (?) in the industry reportedly feel that Kambakht Ishq that opened on July 3, is the acid-test for Akshay Kumar. Is it? Will Akshay once again score or contrary to expectations, bore in Kambakht Ishq?
FIRST THINGS first, Kambakht Ishq is one of those typical films that are atypically Bollywood products – huge canvas, biggest stars, hype, money, packaging and the script missing. Not me. For past two weeks, KI, is in news. Be it Akshay kissing Kareena or vice-versa – 7 times – (did Saif go green, good!) or Denise Richards giving a glorifying testimony to Akshay’s puckering skills. The film is in news. Sylvester Stallone, praising his first bollywood movie – Kumbukt Eeshq – as he goes; makes international news. The fact that the film was declared a bonafide hit five days before it actually had it’s first commericial screening; is trade news. If that was not all; the news that capped crowning-glory is Akshay’s reported ex-flame Pooja Batra’s credit for getting the Hollywood biggies – gossip news!Did you say, you want a review rather than news!? Bemused, I am, how do I review, for KI has no story. It relies on done to death gags – cake splashing on faces – need more; with one simple line – Kareena hates Akshay, Akshay hates Kareena – and how they eventually kiss and make-up. It is indeed, to the credit of Akshay Kumar then that he had a packed house enthralled and in splits. The way he is growing and maturing as an actor is amazing! He deserves an Oscar for injecting life into this lifeless script – I hope it doesn’t end up CC2C way! What rocks the movie:Akshay KumarLocalesProduction valuesKareena Kapoor (in bits and parts) What chucks the movie:Writing, script or whatever!Sunny paaji actually did a better job of uprooting a hand-pump than Sly does with a parking meter. Trust me.Kareena Kapoor in swimsuit fails to reprise her ‘Tashan’ act. Verdict:An average fare made watchable only by Akshay Kumar.
.Aksh..bilkul bakvaas movie...you again prove your self full time boring and pathetic maker comedian...give back my 200 Rs. out of you earn in crores
.I agree, It's a watchable flick...assured..will make you laugh your weekend away! Akshay Kumar is superb.
