Music Review Aap Ki Khatir
Aap Ki Khatir
Dharmesh Darshan has made films that emphasized on drama. If the discord between newly-married couple was the core issue in movie Raja Hindustani , a married woman torn between her husband and lover was the crux of Bewaffa.
Now, in his new outing Aap Ki Khatir, Dhamesh changes gears. He attempts a light entertainer this time. For those who're unaware, the ace director takes the inspiration from director Clare Kilner's Hollywood film The Wedding Date[2005; Debra Messing, Dermot Mulroney]. Wait… Besides The Wedding Date, Aap Ki Khatir bears an uncanny resemblance to Hum Aapke Hain Kaun as well as Monsoon Wedding.
So, does this fusion turn out to be a delectable affair? Armed with a different theme this time around, you expect Aap Ki Khatir to be a refreshing change from the overdose of melodrama that dominates Dharmesh's films. The best thing about Aap Ki Khatir is, the light moments [in abundance in the first hour] work.
Aap Ki Khatir rests on a thin plot. Fine, that can be overlooked. But the director should camouflage the deficiency with an arresting screenplay. Dharmesh establishes the plot well. The 'deal' between Priyanka and Akshaye brings a smile on your face and keeps you in good spirits all through the first half.
Just when you thought that Dharmesh had got it right this time, he throws up in the subsequent reels. In the pre-climax and climax specifically.
To sum up ,Aap Ki Khatir could've been an invigorating experience. Instead, it turns out to be a half-hearted effort that lacks the stamp of an accomplished storyteller.
Anu hatches a plan to get back at Danny and make him jealous. She hires an escort, Aman [Akshaye Khanna], to accompany her to the wedding as her new beau. The plan works gradually. But the skeletons tumble out of the cupboard: Shirani was involved with Danny after he broke off with Anu.Meanwhile, there's a twist in the tale. Aman Dino realizes that he's in love with Anu.
