KAHAANI is an excellent and captivating from beginning to finish.The director has successfully attempted to glue his audience with seats for the entire length of the movie,for this Kudos to Sujoy Ghosh.The script has been written with perfect execution to keep the audience alive and entertaining throughout the length with right dose of humor in between .Albeit this has not affected the story narration or the serious and mysterious plot of the movie.


As usual Vishal-Shekhar has again generated a mesmerizing music  with best part I liked was Ekla Chalo Re in captivating voice Senior Bachchan. The cinematography is arresting. 

Surely the plot has been designed keeping in mind The Dirty Picture lady Vidya Balan , who has been awarded National Award for the same just a day before.Well she has again Entertained Entertained Entertained the audience on this Holi.



 Story :

Vidya Bagchi arrives in Kolkata from London to find her missing husband. Seven month pregnant and alone in a festive city, she begins a relentless search for her husband. With nothing to rely on, except fragments from her memories about him, all clues seem to reach a dead end when everyone tries to convince Vidya that her husband does not exist. She slowly realizes that nothing is what it seems. In a city soaked in lies, Vidya is determined to unravel the truth about her husband -- for herself and her unborn child, even at the cost her own life. 

A woman on her way to be a mother… it's the biggest changeover in the life of a lady. And when her spouse vanishes at this crucial juncture, how do you come to terms with the fact that he has gone missing? People you approach to seek help assert that there exists no such entity. But you are certain that this individual exists and that you are carrying the proof of his existence: his child. The concept is truly striking and attention-grabbing. 

Sujoy, with the skills of a master storyteller, amalgamates a human story in a thriller format. There is a certain uninhibited genuineness in Sujoy's direction. Besides, the writing is outstanding [story: Sujoy Ghosh, Advaita Kala; additional screenplay: Suresh Nair, Nikhil Vyas]; one seldom witnesses such aptitude and deliberation to specifications. Without doubt, Sujoy gives it his best shot with gleaming sincerity. Positioned alongside an intimidating environment of Kolkata's tapered side streets and constricted alleyways, the setting is ahead of credence in its realism. 

Parambrata Chattopadhyay, as Rana, is a revelation. What a tremendous actor. His sequences with Vidya are truly wonderful. Nawazuddin Siddiqui, as Khan, proves yet again that he's an exceptional performer. He makes a stunning impact. Dhritiman Chatterjee is, as always, efficient, Saswata Chatterjee is effective and Darshan Jariwala is perfect. Indraneil Sengupta is splendid in a challenging role. The two child actors [the boy at the lodge and the boy at the tea stall] are a complete natural. 



Vidya has again given  life to a character,the movie scores because of intense emotion , perfect screen play and natural execution by most of the side actors throughout the movie.Its purely Entertainment Entertainment Entertainment.

Must not be avoided this weekend.
