Kabhi aisa movie maat karna


If you have an enemy the best lesson you can teach him is buy him a free ticket of Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna and make him sit and watch that. Nothing can be more devastating than this. I realized it after watching the movie. This is the worst movie ever from such a director like Karan Johar. Karan Johar is known for his sentimental movies with strong family principles in the background. In this movie he decides to grow up and deal with the subject of Adultry. He makes two major mistakes, first he makes a weak plot and secondly he chooses Shahrukh to play Dev.
Watching this movie was like watching unfaithful with songs and emotional dialogues. Karan tries his best to hide his weak plot with sleek camera work and rich use of colors but that too cannot hide the poor story base. Shahrukh not only acted poorly as Dev but also nullified the good performances put up by his costars. The problem with Shahrukh is he is not at all versatile as an actor. Like Rajesh Khanna who was once the romantic superstar but later vanished into the crowd because of the lack of versatility Shahrukh is also walking the same line. After the brilliant performance in Swadesh it seems he has lost his way. Ideally he should do more different types of roles or else I think his days are over.
Other performers like Preity,Rani,Abhishek,Amitabh have done as per their role’s demand. Otherwise the movie is a 3 hour 22 minutes of complete trash.
