Movie Review: Simran

Simran

Kangna proves once again that she is a Queen. Queen of Acting. If someone really puts their mind and soul to something it definitely shows. No amount of twist of faith or turn of events could have taken this away from her. She is definitely an actor. I know no male actor who can ever pull this off and in this style. The Movie is all about her and only her. It doesn’t matter what the story is what the script is. She Just goes out there and rules it. For a pahadi girl to play this gujju girl so convincingly was a shock to me. Never ever she lets any of the flows of the movie to dwindle any scene. She plays all the nonsense and eccentricity like its in her blood. I credit this movie solely to her. The director, writers and the production has only to gain from her strength and not the other way around.

The story telling is extremely weak. It looks like there wasn’t much to say and the story was ridiculously twisted and stretched. Kangna’s potential is not being completely utilized. Dialogues don’t match to the story. There isn’t anything interesting going on. The robbery scenes made to bring humor fail miserably. The NRI gujju dysfunctional family in US isn’t convincing enough. The side characters change their personalities too frequently for one to actually get the real sense of it. Her boss trying to gain her attention to later a monster who attacks her and molests her is so plain unconvincing. All this would have still made sense with proper story telling and good direction. The story line has been changed quite a bit from the real life story and still it lacks luster, has nothing amusing to offer. The movie fails to grip you for its entire run. After about half an hour I wanted to just stop watching it any further. The only fun thing was her name character name Praful Patel and that is never explained.

The only thing that this movie has is a fantastic, realistic acting by Kangna. Everthing else is just  a haze. I would avoid to watch this movie, yet if you are a real Kangna fan like my hubby don't miss it as it is one of her best work.
