Vikram Bhatt’s Judaa Hoke Bhi: A Review

Plot

Judaa Hoke Bhi is a romantic tale with a touch of supernatural horror. The plot revolves around a couple who have a troubled marriage as a result of their son's death. Aman Khanna (Akshay Oberoi), once a successful singer and composer, is now drowning his life in alcohol and self-destruction. Meera (Aindrita Ray), his better half, pays the bill and chooses to travel to Uttrakhand to write Siddharth Yashwardhan's (Meherzan Mazda) biography in order to earn a good living. The story unfolds in the picturesque town of Binsar situated in Uttrakhand, where Meera finds herself imprisoned. Will she ever see Aman again?

Acting

Akshay Oberoi impressively depicts the vivid emotions of his character Aman. Aindrita Ray did fairly well as Meera. She shines in the hospital sequence, which will undoubtedly give you goosebumps. Meherzan Mazda's character arc is sketched half-heartedly, making him appear complex on screen.

Cinematography

The film is shot in the picturesque town of Binsar situated in Uttrakhand. The snow-capped mountain range encircled by dense jungles and the beautiful palace in the midst of it all leave you breathless. The songs are soulful and heighten the impact of the drama.

Direction

Mahesh Bhatt's story vividly captures the couple's intense love, but its antithesis, which contrasts love with lust, is uninspiring. Also, the supernatural activities are not thrilling enough to keep you on the edge of your seat. The twist in the tale was expected and you could see it coming from a mile away, which our ‘over smart’ hero fails to gauge till the very end.

Overall Verdict

This overstretched drama is way too cliched and soppy to hold your attention, but it does amuse you in its own unique ways. The performances and the soulful music definitely make this 122-minute drama worth a one-time watch, but if you're looking for something to keep you on the edge, this isn't it.
