Muskurake Dekh Zara Release Date : 23,Apr 2010

Producer Som Shekar
Director Som Shekar
Music Ranjit Barot
Writer Anurag Kashyap
Lyrics Mehboob
Release Date 23-Apr-2010

I expect first-time directors to be far more courageous than their established counterparts, when it comes to narrating fresh stories at least. But Muskurake Dekh Zara, which has top notch names involved behind the camera [the most prominent one being Anurag Kashyap, who has been credited as the writer of this film], leaves you confused and cold, since the writing is so childish, so amateurish, so fragile that its crash is imminent.

The question that crossed my mind time and again while watching this film was, did Anurag Kashyap really pen this movie? The sole factor that stands out is Ranjit Barot's musical score and the panoramic locales where a few songs have been filmed. Frankly, there's no other reason why you should exit the theatre with a muskurahat.


Gashmeer Mahajani aspires to be a chef. He arrives in Mumbai, after his bride-to-be elopes from the mandap. He falls in love with Twinkle Patel, but the problem is, she loves someone else [Hiten Paintal], who, incidentally, turns out to be the guy Gashmeer's bride-to-be had eloped with. In the end, expectedly, Twinkle realises that her heart beats for Gashmeer.

If the story is as old as the hills, the execution of the subject is equally old-fashioned. Sincethe writing is so inferior, neither does the love story, nor the forced comedy track manage to catch your attention.

Gashmeer is energetic and confident, but needs to work on his styling. Twinkle is raw and it shows. Hiten Paintal has just one expression throughout. Ranjeet, Om Katare and Tiku Talsania are adequate.

On the whole, Muskurake Dekh Zara has no chances absolutely.

Apartment Release Date : 23,Apr 2010

Producer Nari Hira
Director Jagmohan Mundhra
Music Bappa Lahiri
Writer Jagmohan Mundhra
Lyrics Syed Gulrez
Release Date 23-Apr-2010

THE BUILDER of this Apartment has nothing to offer, neither good location, nor design forget about beauty and aura. Well the Apartment, movie made by Jagmohan Mundra fall in the same category of nothing but just structure. If there is any thing worse than a Hollywood remake that's just plain awful, it is one that should be good but doesn't turn out that way.

Apartment is remake of Barbet Scroeder's 1992 thriller Single White Female.
Like its Hollywood version, Apartment of Bollywood is also about a young, working woman who takes in a roommate (Neetu Chandra) after throwing out her live-in boy friend (Rohit Roy) because he is unfaithful to her.
Actually in apartment, he isn't even unfaithful. Preet, played by Tanushree Dutta, happens to walk into the house when a model in too-light clothes is wiping her cleavages with her boyfriend's cooking apron. But the room mate who replaces him turns out to be a bad, very bad bargain. The mentally unhinged girl slowly usurps everyone’s life and even resorts to murder.

The treatment remains the same as the Hollywood version, but there is uninspiring cast of Tanushree Dutta and Neetu Chandra, renders Apartment into a tortuous, tormented.

The story moves ahead, when the supposed suspense sets in when Chandra becomes obsessed with Dutta, and has problems when her friend reunites with Rohit.

Performance ranges from po-faced wooden (Dutta) to dreadfully over the top ( Roy). Anupam Kher sleepwalks in his tiny turn.

For those who haven't seen Single White Female, Apartment is a middling, so-so thriller. For the rest this is a monotonous and misguided mess.
Think twice before planning a hangout in any cineplex, i have wasted my time and energy to find a single moment of joy in the movie, unfortunately there was none. Go at your own risk.
