One Liner: Spectacular thought seriously whacked! Positive Points: Out-of-the-box scripting, Scenic display of the city Prague Negative Points: Poor direction Plot: A brilliant architect, Chandan (Chandan Roy Sanyal) clasps an opportunity to showcase his architectural marvels far away in Prague. Although being sharp enough he is bowed down to communicate with his dead friend Arfi (Arfi Lamba). Getting himself involved with Shubhangi (Sonia Bindra), Arfi's love, Chandan feels to get back stabbed when he finds Shubhangi in an intimate situation with his friend Gulshan(Mayank Kumar). Getting the guilt carried upon himself, Chandan unpleasantly moves to Prague. On his casual visit to a bar Chandan collides with Elena and instantly falls for her. Eventually meeting up, they both start feeling for each other and Chandan seems able to bring back his wagon on track. The smooth road soon faces hurdles as Gulshan hops into their lives. Chandan's insecurity and inferiority to Gulshan falls him prey to test his love this time around. Direction and Other Technical Aspects: The script has been brilliantly woven to entangle the viewers thus the poor direction unfolds the ties. Debutant director Ashish Shukla has lacked much to take the anticipation levels on a high. The approach of story telling comes out strong but the execution is a thing that sinks it all. The plot overall confuses the viewers to par just to recollect what's really happening. As the next scene arises, you suppose to had viewed it some time back! The characterization being multidimensional, holds a poor connect to the viewers. The camera work too disappoints us at some point of time. With already confusing execution the camera shakes up and blurs out in few frames adds misery to the soused up direction. Despite the chaos what makes us feel to get worth of our penny is the climax. After much a do it's something that would add on relief to the viewers while vacating the premises for the next entrant. Performances: Chandan Roy Sanyal proves his best to steal the show as Chandan. His charming smile clubbed with the traumatized mental behavior keeps the suspense meter at par. Elena Kazan walks well with a pleasant screen presence whereas misses acting, a needed element at few scenes. Mayank Kumar is never to be missed in the supporting role category. His superlative dialogue delivery and appearance acts a feel real experience. Whereas rest others, Arfi Lamba and Sonia Bindra just sails on their back with not much displayable average performances. Music: As the theme, the songs opted are something unusual to the Indian audiences. Going on with the genre, it lacks a connect with the listeners. Hence, proving average the background score is what gels up pretty well to intact to the motion. Final Verdict: Despite pioneering hopes, the film falls to jump from a top. The indie centric motion strucks you hard while traveling through Chandan's factual and imaginary world which makes this ride a pothole journey. Not that impressive it's the spine chilling suspense that wakes you up from a frantic slumber.
