Review By:Prabhash K Dutta
Finally, "Krrish", the super human has hit the theatres with super special effects.A movie for which all of you like me were waiting to arrive. "Krrish" is about life. It is about power, power of a superhuman. This desi superman can run, fly and float. "Krrish" defeats horse in race; he can swim faster than anything in water and can match his flying skills with helicopters! Fire can not burn him, wind can not put a check on him, and ocean can not drown him! Nothing is impossible, sure, only NOTHING is impossible for this incarnation of superman. And, Hritik Roshan is simply at his best to do all the superman acts. He is impeccable and he has arrived with a bang. Hritik Roshan exudes the energy of a superman and does everything, be the dance sequences or martial arts with ease. And, every act of desi version of superman suits on him. He looks innocent, he is powerful, he is supple, he is brilliant and finally he is "Krrish". He is definitely getting better of his previous appearances every time he comes on the screen, although he does a very few films. His voice modulation, his body language, the facial muscles, every of the actor just fits in the grooves of Krrishna expression in India and Krrish in Singapore. But sadly, Hritik Roshan and special effects are the only two high points of the movie.

Unlike "Koi Mil Gaya", the story line is not that different. It is a love-tale mixed with revenge story. And, with "Krrish", it is an open secret that who could be the winner. Nonetheless, the movie takes you to some beautiful locations traveling from India to Singapore, where "Krrish" does some spectacular stunts. Definitely the special effects have shown the power of good graphical presentation.


With "Koi Mil Gaya" the trend of super special effects started in India and with "Krrish" Bollywood would only encourage the directors to do some more experiments. It gives a new dimension to the film and definitely a treat to movie goers, who are anyways getting accustomed to these graphics via TV. However, unlike "Koi Mil Gaya" this film lacks the charm and magic of Jadu, the soul of the original flick. But to compensate that here is Hritik Roshan with a great performance. Rekha is another star performer in the film. But, for those who love Rekha to remain a glam doll, the character may not be a fanciful one. But she has certainly moved a notch higher by donning the mettle of grandmother. Rekha has done the role of grandmother with absolute brilliance.

Priyanka Chopra looks pretty as always but she is no match to Hritik's elasticity and one wonders why did Rakesh Roshan replace Preity Zinta with her. Even her acting is good in patches only. She is a journalist but never does any reporting! Thankfully, she is not a dominant character in the film. But, the surprise package of "Krrish" comes from Nasseruddin Shah. He holds the real key of the sequel, the mystery surrounding Rohit Mehra of Koi Mil Galya. Naseeruddin Shah, like always has done what only he could have done.Without any iota of doubt "Krrish" has been a much-awaited movie and to most of the audience it lives upto the expectation. Shot in Singapore, Malaysia and picturesque mountains of India "Krrish" presents some lovely visuals to eyes. Music of the film is already making to charts with one song Aao sunaun, running at the top. Rajesh Roshan has once again created the magic for his home production.

"Krrish" is a perfect big bang movie and is definitely going to be a big hit among the viewers, except perhaps for the people with olden days' taste only. It is worth your money and three hours. But one big time suggestion, when you plan to watch the movie make it sure that you select a good theatre, with all kind technically sound facility.
