A Still from 'EKEH' |
Later she discovers that she was conned into parting with her hard-earned money. Natasha seeks revenge. She confronts Arjun at Sikander's den (how does she reach there?!) She also comes up with the idea of having Fardeen cheat Jehangir Khan (Feroz Khan), the President of Standard Bank, of Rs. 25 crores. The conversation that the group indulge in as part of their planning session is too long and boring.
In most places, it leaves the audience out of it. This also tends to make the film move at a very slow pace.
As we said initially, the maker claims that this is an original story, but the story screams about Hollywood film 'Confidence' (starring Edward Burns and Rachel Weisz). The beginning of 'Confidence' was copied very cleverly in 'Musafir' and then 'Musafir' took a different direction, but in EKEH, 'Confidence' is smeared all over. So copy or not, you decide, go watch both of 'em!
We've already spoken about performanes in the beginning but just realized that we'v forgotten Fardeen and Feroz Khan. The former sails through the film with his usual charm and gorgeous looks. The latter has very little screen time but is charming alright although he looks quite monster like. Mukul Dev is alright, and Rohit Roy is likeable. All in all a film best avoided.
