Movies Review: Talaash

Talaash: The movieCast: Aamir Khan, Rani Mukerji, Kareena Kapoor

Direction: Reema Kagti

Rating: ****

Reema Kagti's 'Talaash' is a suspense thriller that not only boasts of a taut script but has a multi-layered structure that manages to pack in enough surprises to keep the viewer hooked till the very end. The storyteller's craft lies in the fact that the modus operandi of the plot seems as intriguing as the motive of the crime.

Surjan Singh Shekhawat (Aamir Khan) is investigating the death of actor Armaan Kapoor (Vivan Bhatena) whose car seems to have suddenly veered out of control and plunged right into the sea. Considering the actor was neither under the influence of alcohol/drugs nor was he suicidal, the death throws up a lot of unanswered questions. The plot thickens when Armaan's widow informs the police that the actor had withdrawn Rs 20 lakh on the day of his death, raising suspicion that he might have been a victim of blackmail or extortion.

One of the prime suspects in this case is a pimp and during the course of his investigation, Shekhawat meets a prostitute Rosy/Simran (Kareena Kapoor) who intermittently divulges credible information that helps the police make significant headway every time they seem to be reaching a dead end.

While the police are still trying to make a breakthrough in this complex mystery, we realize Shekhawat is a deeply conflicted man. He is struggling with suppressed grief and guilt since he lost his eight-year-old son. He also makes vain attempts to hold on to his troubled marriage as his wife Roshni (Rani Mukerji) tries to come to terms with her loss.

Nawazuddin Siddique stands out among the supporting cast with another compelling performance. Rani Mukerji as the bereaved mother essays an understated and convincing portrayal. Kareena is good as the flirtatious and slightly mysterious hooker. But Aamir Khan's performance stands head and shoulders above the rest. He delivers a complex role with complete ease, one moment he is a ruthless cop and in the next, he is an anguished father grappling with his son's death, vulnerable yet strong.

Zoya Akhtar and Reema Kagti weave an intricate narrative and deserve applause for the brilliant plot execution. For me, the success of any good film is measured by the degree to which it can engage the audience. In the climax when Shekhawat applies the emergency brakes, it is as if the viewer on their seat feels the sudden jolt, like they were on the backseat of his car.

The idea might not be strictly original but watch it for the way the story unfolds.

Bigg Boss 6: Sapna-Assem in love?

In the last few episodes, Sapna was seen calling Assem ‘bhaiyya’ in the Bigg Boss house. They have been bonding intellectually and talking about various topics.

Assem has a girlfriend, Smita who he talks about seldom while Sapna has been seen talking about her ex-husbands openly.

So, now the questions arises - what’s cooking between the two? Is it just two intellectuals bonding on a geeky level or is it something more?

This question has struck our mind because there have been instances which shows that there is something more between the two.

Sapna does not like to listen to anything against Assem and tries to sort out any differences that arise due to him. She has been seen resting her head on his shoulder and walking in the garden holding hands. Not an ideal instance of sisterly love.

So, is the fire burning only from Sapna’s side or is Assem also feeling something? We will just have to wait and watch.

9 star relationships that survived Bollywood

All the glitz and glamour in Bollywood comes with a price. There is tremendous pressure and numerous distractions and temptations. No wonder most relationships in Bollywood are short-lived. But there are a chosen few who have managed to defy this norm. Here’s the list of top 10 among them, in increasing order of years of togetherness:

Avantika & Imraan Khan (10 years) Although this couple got married only last year, they have been together since the past 10 years and deserve to be on the list for their sheer faithfulness towards each other. They have been together since a very young age and in spite of the industry they are in, have managed to keep their relationship alive and away from controversies. A young couple in today’s age showing such commitment is definitely commendable and worth emulating.

Twinkle & Akshay Kumar (11 years) Akshay was a known Casanova who dated a string of actresses from Raveena Tandon to Shilpa Shetty but refused to settle with anyone; well only till Twinkle came along. They met on the sets of the film 'International Khiladi' and tied the knot soon after. Though everybody thought that this marriage would break apart very soon due to Akshay's playboy nature, it stood the test of time. Twinkle's second pregnancy has put a stop to all the rumors about their marriage falling apart.

Suzanne & Hrithik Roshan (12 years) Hrithik fell in love with Suzanne in the filmiest of ways. He saw her at a traffic signal and claims that it was love at first sight. After years of courtship they got married and have since completed 12 years of togetherness. They had their fair share of controversies – Hrithik’s affair with Barbara Mori, Suzanne’s leaving the house etc., but they have managed to forego all that and have stayed on together.

Kajol & Ajay Devgn (13 years) Kajol & Ajay are a perfect example of the ‘opposites attract’ saying. While Kajol is all chirpy and jolly, Ajay is known to be serious and broody. But they have managed to make their differences complement each other. Kajol was head over heels in love with Ajay and married him at the peak of her career. 2 kids later, they are still as happy as they were earlier.

Malaika & Arbaaz Khan (14 years) Malaika was a name to reckon with as a model, VJ and an item dancer, while Arbaaz was best known as Salman’s brother. But their successes or failures didn’t stand a chance in front of their love for each other. They are the perfect modern couple with Arbaaz being perfectly at ease with Malaika being more successful and each giving the other ample space. They have a son together and are in love as much as ever.

Gauri & Shahrukh Khan (21 years) This is Bollywood’s ‘it’ couple. It is quite well known how much Shah Rukh had to struggle to woo Gauri and then had to struggle even more to convince her parents for the marriage. During the times when even inter-caste marriages were frowned upon, they wanted to get married in spite of their religious differences. True love eventually triumphed; they got married and now are proud parents of a son and a daughter. While most other actors got embroiled in various love affairs, Shah Rukh 

Neetu & Rishi Kapoor (32 years) Neetu Singh married Rishi at the tender age of 22. They were one of the most popular couples of their time. Rishi was a heartthrob, a trait he passed on to his son, and Neetu was also a successful actress. Though they had problems in their marriage due to Rishi’s excessive drinking habit, they withstood the storm and managed to keep their marriage intact.

Jaya & Amitabh Bacchhan (39 years) Jaya got married to Amitabh at the peak of her successful career while he was still struggling to get a foothold in the industry. The marriage proved lucky for Amitabh and he became a super star. Although there was trouble in their marriage due to Amitabh’s alleged link-up with Rekha but Jaya like a dutiful wife supported her husband and now they have a perfect family with both their kids happily married.

Saira & Dilip Kumar (46 years) Saira Bano is 22 years younger than Dilip Kumar but age never came in the way of them enjoying a blissful married life. Their marriage has weathered all storms and not even once have we seen them drifting away from each other. They are as much in love as they were at the beginning of their relationship and are a perfect example of love stays young forever. They are still together and we wish them many more years of togetherness.
