Kabhi Alvida na kehna: Movie review


Avoid it...atleast in theatres....its a 3.5hr mental torture....though some of the dialogues/scenes are praiseworthy the editing leaves a lot to be desired

shahrukh as usual hams a lot (must say that he has considerably improved in hamming)...he is not his usual self as was the case in other romantic films like Mohabbatein,K2H2, DDLJ...Rani has acted really well but she cried a lot in the movie...still dunno why she was unhappy with her married life with Abhishek....

Abhishek is again a revelation.....he has shown considerable improvements in the past 2 years and he really looks cool...preity is ok..no big shakes.....amitabh is highly effective....

Songs look good on screen.....picturisation of Tumhi dekho na and rock n roll is the pick of the lot...cinematography was a bit patchy....

Karan really needs to pull his socks for the next venture and try out some kinda experimentation similar to the Yashraj banner..though the movie will send record opening in 1st week (maybe the first Bollywood movie to cross 30 crores in 1st week) it still does not match movies like K2H2, DDLJ

Note: almost 25% of the movie seems to be shot at the New Haven Union Station and the rest in New york..though NYC was not portrayed properly....
