Verdict:
Watch it for complete waste of time
Detailed Analysis:
Sunny Leone starrers come once in every three month and all such films disappoint no matter how much pre release buzz is. One more such films with out much promise releases today. Saru, full name Saraswati, is an obedient daddy’s girl. Inder is a broody, massively-tattooed loner. And ‘Sanam Teri Kasam’ , not to be confused with the ’82 film of the same name, is a manual of how Not to make a contemporary romantic film. Picture this: a heavy-handed father who thunders, flinging out instructions on how wife and daughters ought to behave. Falling in love with an unsuitable boy, ‘aiyyo rama’. Acting on your own will, ‘parmeshwara’. Doing what your heart tells you to, ‘aaj se thum mere liye marr gayi’. Which leaves Saru (Mawra Hocane) to smile, simper, weep. Hesitate. Propitiate. And to look at her stony-faced father (Chowdhary, trying very hard to be a credible South Indian patriarch and failing) who’d rather conduct a wake than understand his daughter’s desires, and wait for his ‘permission’ before she can take a step forward. (Read: Ghayal Once Again, Sanam Teri Kasam to clash at box-office today) Inder (Harshwardhan Rane, armed with impressive bod, limited expression), who has daddy issues of his own, scowls and growls. The deep hurt caused by his dad is revealed much too late, and much too cursorily. The rest is filled by these two unlikely characters—Inder and Saru—developing feelings, over a brain tumour, impending tragedy, and more tears. - See more at: http://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/movie-review/sanam-teri-kasam-movie-review-mawra-hocane-harshvardhan-rane/#sthash.KJQmFWcV.dpuf

Film is also a shining example of poor writing of an interesting plot idea. Film does not hold any interest after big twist at interval point as Sunny Leone continues to be average.
Film has inconsistent editing. Background music is ineffective. Cinematography is very good, production design is apt and costumes fit the bill.
Debutant director does try her best to save a film which is badly written. She manages to bring some excitement in 2nd half when stalking angle come sin the picture but then it does not hold power. Film will release today and it will get poor reviews and it should get bad opening. Film has solid competition in 'Captain America Civil War' and '1920 London' in addition to last week's hit film 'Baaghi'.
Go for this only if you are Sunny Leone fan and still feel disappointed! . |
