kidnap


Sanjay Gadhvi’s new movie ‘Kidnap’. It is an action thriller with Sanjay Dutt, Imran Khan and Minissha Lamba.To make any movie successful, it is very important to have strong screenplay. This is where kidnap lacks. Intentions are good but what’s the point if you can’t express it.A boy kidnaps the daughter of rich industrialist to take childhood revenge. Imran Khan as a kidnapper took his act quite seriously but dialogues and screenplays couldn’t help him. We have seen him in ‘Jaane tu ya Janne na’ as a college, chocolate boy and in Kidnap its totally contrast Imran with stubble. Sanjay Dutt is nothing great and he looks old but still performs all the stunts with same enthusiasm as young Imran.Sonia (Minissha Lamba Bachna Ae Haseeno) lives with her mother, Mallika (Vidya Malvade Chak Dey India) and grandmother because her parents divorced when she was ten. A week before her eighteenth birthday celebration, she gets kidnapped.Don’t expect great music.Music by Pritam is repetitive. Only ‘Mit Jaaye’ sounds good.The first track ‘Haan ji’, sung by Adnan Sami and picturised on Sanjay Dutt, is an ordinary track, not that impressive with a touch of Arabic music.
The next song is a mesmerizing number ‘Mausam’ sung by Shreya Ghosal.
Then comes the most highlighted song ‘Hey Ya’ or ‘S for Soniya’. Minissha Lamba is looking ravishing and so is the song in the seductive voice of Suzi Q.
The song ‘Mit Jaye’ is the last song of the album. This track is used for publicity which is quite apt, as it shows Imran in a rugged look with angst-filled eyes.
On the whole, the album is okay. As said before, it’s not a romantic or a family movie which can feature many songs.

kidnap was a good movie. it will give a new way to imran khan to express himself. the story is good. but the action thriller is not very good in this movie.
