Kal Kissne Dekha directed by Vivek Sharma (of Bhootnath fame) is yet another movie where the director has completely undermined the need for credibility in story. Bollywood seems to be going through a very bad phase in terms of the quality of its movies. It has been made by producer Vashu Bhagnani just to launch his son Jackky Bhagnani and not in the interest of its viewers. Kal kissne Dekha? Answer- Nihal Singh(Jackky Bhagnani) from Chandigarh. Nihal is a typical Punjabi boy- talkative, inquisitive, full of ideas, extremely pleasant and loves his mother. He is gifted in many ways and one of his talents is to build scientific gadgets in his spare time. His life is changed when he secures admission in his dream college in Bombay. Away from his hometown, college is a new experience for him and he finds it hard to make friends or even be noticed. He finds a mentor in professor Verma(Rishi Kapoor), the warden of the college who is amazed by Nihal's intelligence. He loses his heart to the most popular girl in college Meesha(Vaishali Desai) who only insults him till one day, his highly guarded gift comes to his rescue. Nihal has a vision from the future about Meesha being in danger and he saves her. News about it spreads far and wide and Nihal becomes the much talked about boy who can see the future. His action also makes Meesha fall in love with him and everything seems hunky dory for just a little while, till Nihal's gift becomes his curse. Someone is trying to use Nihal's gift to manipulate him and everything Nihal loves is in jeopardy. To know if Nihal's visions save him or if someone close to him manages to betray him, watch Kal kissne Dekha. The movie is not one of Vashu Bhagnani's best. The performance by the newcomers Jackky and Vaishali could have been better. Rishi Kapoor is the best part of the movie. The movie also has Shah Rukh Khan, Juhi Chawla and Sanjay Dutt making special appearances. The movie is a bore in the first half and gets interesting only in the second half when we are trying to figure out the fate of Nihal. It makes a good timepass movie.

Good times are here again as our movie world is back on track with its usual glamour and drama. And what a long gap it was missing the exciting Fridays, parting with our favorite theater ambience and waiting for the lights to go off as usual. So, it was nice to be in my cinema seat again but sadly was not feeling the same moving out of the hall. Kal Kisne Dekha, is the first movie to be released after the patch up between the producers and cinema owners. It is considered to be a major venture, since it is the launching pad of Vashu Bhagnani' son, Jackie Bhagnani. The boy looks fresh and has impressive acting and dancing abilities to his merit. But unfortunately he becomes a victim of a below-the-mark execution of a weak and repetitive script. The film is based on a future gazing plot, also seen in some recent releases, like "Aa Dekhen Zara" & "8 X 10 Tasveer". And like these two, Kal Kisne Dekha, also goes along the same path where the direction fails to execute & materialize the interesting plot on-screen. The movie starts off in a village in Punjab with all the characters speaking dialogues, in a deliberate mix of Punjabi & Hindi. This very scene brings down the excitement level as using Punjab as its background in movies has now reached a saturation point. We have seen the same sequences and dialogues between a Punjabi mother and his son several times before. Maybe it's time Bollywood directors start thinking beyond Punjab.From Punjab, the story moves on to Mumbai where, Nihaal (Jackie) joins College and also meets his lady love, Meesha (Vaishali Desai). Here we again are served with repetitive scenes of riffs between seniors and freshers, small fights between the lead couple, and then love emerging from both sides, as a requisite. As Nihaal and Meessha fall in love, we are also introduced to Rishi Kapoor, a Physics Professor in the College who, in reality, is the technical brain behind a dangerous Terrorist Group. However, the main plot of the movie, revealed much later, is Jackie's power of predicting the future. He is gifted with a vision to predict future events and is able save many lives. Strangely, this plot, which should have been given the main emphasis, is used in a very light and unimpressive manner by the director. There is no excitement in knowing that the hero can predict the future. Nor there are any thrilling sequences which make you jump to the corner of your seat. In fact, you feel sorry for Jackie, who tries hard to bring the viewer into the movie but gets ditched by the screenplay in a big way. Particularly, the scene where Jackie discloses his precious gift of a vision in front of his college friends, Police & Media is filmed in a very childish manner. For example, on knowing about his futuristic vision, one of the reporters asks, "How do you see those visions, in black & white or in colour?" Quite funny! The climax sequence of Jackie, predicting the hidden bombs planted in different places is also directed in a very sim
