Review of Mithya

Overall Rating:***
Plot:****
Cast Performance:****
Sound Track:***
Cinematography:****

Expect a comic thriller. Extremely comic in the first half, not the laugh a minute type, but humourous and a sudden tragic thriller in the second half. Quite like many of Shakespere’s plays.

Rk (Ranvir Shorey) is a jugadoo junior artist who lives from day to day. He is working as an extra on a movie which stars Sonam (Neha Dhupia). Not surprisingly, RK likes Sonam from afar. However, his existence is very peripheral and after one really bad day he decides to go to the seaside with his adhaia of whiskey and a glass that comes free with it. He finds himself witnessing a shootout between two rival gangs. He goes to the police and finds the gang of Gawde (Naseeruddin Shah) on his tail. He is abducted and finds that he is the spitting image of Raje, the rival Don. Gawde plans to kill Raje and implant RK in his place, to finish the gang from inside.

After some hilarious training sessions, RK infilterates the Raje gang. A hesitant RK nearly botches it up but suffers a head injury and loses his memory. What follows from here on is a fast paced thriller that will keep you glued to your seats. You wont want to take any C or P breaks. Not too many laughs either here on.

The movie is taut and the scenes are all necessary, no faltu time wasting sequences anywhere. The acting is magnificent all around. Naseeruddin Shah, Saurabh Shukla, Vinay Pathak, Neha Dhupia, Iravati Bhogle and Harsha Bhogle, Suhasini Mulay, and many others I dont know the names of. The brilliant centrepiece is definately Ranvir Shorey.

Is it possible to make a good movie with actors who appear in peripheral roles in other movies? YES ! Sagar Bellary proved that in Bheja Fry and Rajat Kapoor proves it yet again. I wish I could kiss star studded movie goodbye and embrace small movies forever. I saw Loins of Punjab, The Blue Umbrella, Bheja Fry last year that were unknown small movies that wowed me totally. I missed Mixed Doubles and Raghu Romeo and hope to redress that and get some DVD’s.

The comedy sequences in the movie are just too funny to describe, not slapstick, not in your face funny, but extremely humourous. When the movie takes a serious turn, expect some really heartrending scenes.

Go watch it quick. I cant really predict if the movie will do well at the box office or not.

Financial aid pupils can examine overseas. It really is a frequent misconception that only affluent pupils can afford to examine in another country. The fact is that students who are getting total and part school funding could also examine overseas. Confer with your school funding and examine in another country analysts. They may help you determine which study in another country system fits your needs. [url=http://www.x21w12w21.info]T22wyuul[/url]
