Dil Kabaddi - Class Movie ... 3rd Class

Saw my first ever First-Day-First-Show movie today (Parle tricked me into it) - and it was a huge, huge disappointment.

By the looks of it, Dil Kabaddi seems to be that classy kind, like Metro, or other such unusual, cosmopolitan movies which thrive on a great storyline (with which we can really relate), great screenplay, wonderful acting, and some nice direction. However, the only good thing about this movie was the acting which, I am sure, was an effort of the actors alone. You really can't get these bunch of actors to act bad, can you?!

The movie is about urban marriages, sex lives of couples, and fading compatibilities. The movie had the potential to be a nice one, and it had some very thoughtful interactions between characters that make you realise important stuff about relationships, but the direction by some Anil Sharma (debutant) screwed it up - completely.

Irfan Khan's role was the best and he did complete justice to it. 4 out of 5, 5 being good.

Rahul Bose ... well ... I hate him (I once spoke with him over phone regarding rugby, and its promotion in India, and all he could show was a-t-t-i-t-u-d-e) .. so I may be biased when I say that he was pretty tasteless.

Konkana ... I would say that you should really see this movie if you want to say Konkana's worst ever performance. 

Soha Ali Khan ... well ... leave her. She's an ok actor, and did an ok job in this one.

Rahul Khanna - well, his presence was like asking an Indian barber to 'trim', or 'cut it medium', or 'just brush the sides' ... in short, it dosn't matter. Rahul Khanna was almost around the 35% mark. 

The movie started with hope, was pretty interesting till half quarter-time, and pacy too. Till the first half, there was some velocity in the movie. Then, all that remained was speed - the direction (by Anil Sharma) just vanished! (cheeky?)
