#SonaliCable(Hindi) Rating: * * Cable
Internet turf wars meshed with love play but not as invigorating as expected.
Poor narrative structure and lack of depth make this experience a purely
superficial one #ParullGossain #AliFazal #CharuduttAcharya #RheaChakravarthy

on the highway but the firsts don’t add up to anything fear inducing. The 3D doesn’t
add any magic either. Negligible

Hindi Film review
Johnson Thomas
Film: Mumbai 125 km.
Cast:Vije Bhatia, Karamvir Bohra, Joe Debroy, Aparna Bajpai,
Vedita Pratap Singh
Director: Hemant Madhukar
Rating: * 1/2
Director-producer Hemant Madhukar’s debut 3D horror film
boasts of a budget bigger than any other desi horror film has seen before. But
there’s not much purchase to show for it. Supported financially by a travel
portal, this film takes the road to horror quite diabolically – unfortunately
the crudeness involved in the telling makes it pitifully unrequiting!
A road movie of sorts , everything happens in one night ,
between the 125 km stretch of the Pune-Mumbai
highway which a group of youngsters(all friends) are traversing on their
way to an exclusive new year’s night party in Mumbai. The Five friends – Prem, Vivek, Aashika, Diya and Jaks
have actually won free entries to the event and are pretty much looking forward
to a fantastic time. But the road they travel is littered with demons and
deceit. And since they make the trip at night, it’s bound to be dark and pretentiously
scary en route.
Weird encounters on the highway try to add bite to the piteously engineered
contretemps and the follow-up of gruesome murders that eliminate one by one
among the five friends make the entire spiel predictable and unsurprising.
Veena Malik has a bikini scene which could be the sole selling point of the
film. Otherwise there’s very little to be had in this tacky attempt to feature
a ghost out to wreak revenge on the people who killed her and her family by
means of a rash road encounter. Shabbily
crafted, poorly enacted, with little attempt to create credible chills or
scares, this one plays it by rote , largely. And the experience is not pretty –
in spite of the high production cost claimed!
