A Still from 'EKEH' |
Without exaggeration, this genre of films seem to be getting worse over the years.
Now for a bit on what this film is about. It's said to be a con film. Every character is out to con the other, but the film fails to grip you. Call it the incapability of the actors, poor screenplay or the director's shortcomings; but it had the makings of an edge-of-the-seat entertainer. But to give credit where it's due, the film is visually appealing! Some of the songs too are good.
One con job that stands out and also looks real is the one in which Fardeen cons a man at a jeweller's store into paying for the diamond ring that he has bought for Koena. Coming back to the story. Arjun (Fardeen Khan) and his close buddy Rohit (Rohit Roy) want to get rich quickly. This leads them to start a series of con jobs. They con the accountant of an underworld don, Sikander (Gulshan Grover). This leads to Rohit's murder and Arjun escapes from the city.
Sikander traces Arjun and warns him to return the stolen 3 lakhs plus 1 lakh as interest. He puts his henchman Kaif (Kay Kay) on his trail. A psychiatrist, Natasha (Koena Mitra who looks more like a sex worker than a psychiatrist), enters his life.
She is fascinated by Arjun's con games and decides to be a part of the group comprising of Fardeen Khan, Kay Kay, Mukul Dev, and some unknown character. She accidentally shoots a cop (Murli Sharma). |
