Kahaani....

No denying it...it was a good movie.Absolutely worth a watch.And better than most of the other movies that have come out in recent times,including "The Dirty Picture" which I didn't like very much.I thought it was way too dramatic/melodramatic.

Anyway coming back to "Kahaani" - I adored Vidya Balan's acting as well as the entire ensemble cast and crews acting.Top Notch!

Story : Now here's where I had some minor gripes.
  • Starting with a pregnant Indian lady who has no Indian family whatsoever.
  • Two years of marriage and only 1 photo of her and her husband (My husband loathes taking pics and I still have a million of them,not smiley ones but still! )
  • How is it possible for someone to convince a police officer to pick locks with a bobby pin!at the drop of a hat was something I found a little hard to digest
  • Also did no one think of checking her credentials at all?Passport copy?Did she actually manage to get by the entire movie without signing her name even once?
  • How does a once pregnant domesticated lady learn how to do karate chops ala Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon?
 The good thing about the movie though is that it makes you forget all of these issues since it grips you with its story telling format.Your first reaction by default is to say I LOVED the movie and it is only in retrospect that you realize "Huumm wonder how she managed that?!"

I still maintain that it is a great one time watch and much much much better than the stuff out there now!

And Vidya..take a bow!
