Shree (2013)
Movie Details:
More and more telly actors are setting their sights on the big screen.
Hussain Kuwajerwala, a popular name on television, takes the big leap
from TV to movies with SHREE. But unlike most big screen debuts that
tilt towards rom-coms, Hussain's big screen debut is a sci-fi thriller.
Rajesh Bachchani, who has several television shows to his credit, opts
for an unconventional premise that had the potential to be intriguing
and nerve-racking, but like most Hindi films, captivating ideas on paper
don't translate into absorbing movies. So where does the problem lie?
Well, the storyteller ought to know that narrating a story with utmost
simplicity is of paramount importance. In addition, the screenwriting
fluctuates constantly between attention-grabbing and unadventurous,
which is its biggest shortcoming...
Shree [Hussain Kuwajerwala], an ordinary man, works at a telecom
company. He's in love with a girl [Anjali Patil], but needs to be
financially secure before he settles down. Randhawa [Rio Kapadia], a
wealthy businessman, zeroes in on Shree as his last guinea pig. Shree is
the last piece of puzzle of a scientific experiment, devised by a
scientist, supported by the commissioner of police and funded by
Randhawa.
Randhawa offers Shree Rs 20 lakhs for participating in an experiment
which will last for 12 hours. Shree trusts them and trades 12 hours of
his life. But as soon as the time starts, he realizes that his life has
turned upside down. He's accused of murdering the commissioner of
police. Shree, an ordinary man, is now the most wanted man in the
city...
To give the credit where it's due, the thriller -- filmed on authentic
locations -- stays a step ahead of the audience initially. It has the
elements of thrill -- it gets intense and spine-chilling at varied
occasions. The raconteur builds up the plot smartly, encompasses several
twists during the course of the film which are wonderfully tied
together, but he blows it all up before he reaches the finale.
SHREE is a well-meaning film, but the impact it ought to make is lost
due to its lopsided writing. Unfortunately, the film never reaches the
stage where the spectator would exclaim, 'Wow! What a spine-chilling cat
and mouse game!'. The drama that envelops dishonesty, treachery and
viciousness doesn't hit you with sufficient force.
Hussain has an imposing screen presence and he displays the myriad
emotions with admirable ease. Anjali Patil, last seen in a commanding
role in CHAKRAVYUH, is a fine talent, but is over the top this time.
Paresh Ganatra, mostly cast in comic characters, handles the negative
part well. Shivani Tanksale is supremely efficient, while Rio Kapadia
doesn't get much to do.
On the whole, SHREE has a fascinating premise, but the erratic writing plays the spoilsport!
