Katti Batti

Imagine the horror of going to a movie first day first show and getting utterly disappointed with the flick. Yes, katti batti is bad; no the correct word would be 'bore', its a big bore of a movie. The movie switches back into past and present showing a crazy complicated and a tragic love story on the screen and here off the screen i was having a big problem understanding what is happening. The narrative is so shabby and moves in so many different directions that i got intertwined understanding what the director wants us to show. Kangna Ranaut was the one selling point of the movie and she is grossly underused, so there goes your trump card down the drain Mr Nikhil Advani.

The last 15 mins of the movie is were the movie shows its potential as it is heartwarming and sad and might leave a few tears trickling down your cheeks. Music by Shankar Ehsaan and Loy is just top notch and every song stays with you. Special mention to the picturization of lip to lip song as it is very nicely and creatively done. Sadly, only these few things won't save this movie. I wouldn't recommend watching this movie but if you have nothing to do this weekend you can very well watch this movie once.

Katti Batti is like watching poor watching version of "Sweet November". Boy met girl they both fell in love and one day " snap" girl left the boy without saying anything. We have seen all these kind of stuff in many movies and we have this again. Katti Batti is extremely boring, dull and way too much dragged. Too many loopholes in plot and complete half baked story is the biggest drawback.

What's good : The chemistry between Imran and Kangana looks good and carried well. Picturization of song lip to lip is done very well.. Apart from that nothing holds you to entertain.

What's Bad : So many things... Sleek storyline, dull and dragging plot as I told already. Some stupid jokes which not going to make u lol.. and comic scenes are forcefully pushed between nowhere... Supporting cast seems like took for granted all they can have is address and contact number & rescuing Imran khan from another heart break... too dramatic scenes like " maa ke kangan" and pet like " Milkha" seriously..???

Now main star cast.. Imran Khan... He is the main star of the movie and he tried so much to make this movie work and somehow it worked... but all we know it's not his fault. It's his choice of movies. Emotional scenes are carried nicely by him but sometimes it's not...

Now kangana.. honestly the reason I saw this movie is bcoz of her and I really disappointed coz she's hardly there. After making some brilliant movies why did she drained all her versatility by doing this kind of stuff where she don't have anything to do... I really wanna ask her what she did and why??

Now we have Nikhil Advani.. I think after kal ho na ho. He forget how to make a good movie. And it seems like he is giving competition to sajid khan and others like him to make more craps... so I really wanna tell him that take as much as time you want. Come with a good story and make something which makes us forget what mess he done after kal ho na...

All in all Katti Batti has nothing to offer anything new.. it's just old, boring and insensible movie wrapped into old and boring love story and too much emotions that makes you nothing but yawn... don't waste Ur time or money on that..

See the movie with your better half. And wait till the end, when all gets revealed to you.

If you like 500 days of summer or something that keeps you interested then a good movie. The actors are just not that professionals to act in THIS serious movie. But the comedy is priceless. 20 min of comedy is in there.

And for what happens in the movie, it all adds up to the events that lead to the the end. Cant push how mush it is necessary to see the end after watching the whole movie

And for the supporting rolls. They are a hit or miss. This movie really forces those supporting actors to play in important roll. Some of the actors are great but some fall short.

Hope you like the movie, me and my wife liked it. But loved the story

7 only for the last 20 or odd minutes.. I feel like that's when story starts.. If you keep your patience till the last you will feel its worth a watch.. Yup movie could have been better in a thousand ways but its what it is and rater than criticizing it badly lets try and be fair and like this movie for what it is.. Obviously Imran and Kangana have done a heck of a job.. Kangana Suits best for climax and Imran for rest of movie.. May be a different cast would have done the job.. Other actors where just pain for eyes.. They just couldn't pull it through and they did have a important part for story to move on.. You could not like this movie but certainly can't hate this one at least it leaves a small impact inside you..

Inspired by the Hollywood Cult Classic 500 Days of Summer, 'Katti Batti' tries hard to adapt the soul of its inspiration, but what is eventually served is a merely average film. Though the idea is great, the execution is uneven!

'Katti Batti' is a romantic comedy that follows Maddy (Imran Khan) and Payal's (Kangana Ranaut) live-in relationship until a sudden turn of events creates a distance between them.

'Katti Batti' has a lively first-hour, where some sequences bring a smile on your face. Its a bit interesting to see the heartbroken protagonist struggle to find his love back & the flashbacks on how the boy & girl met, have a niceness to it. Its the second-hour that fails. The narrative loses energy & the pace drops drastically. Also, the emotional manipulation in the final-act, doesn't work. In short, the first-hour works, but the second-hour spoils the fun.

Anshul Singhal's Screenplay is decent, but only in parts. The second-hour needed to be better! Nikhil Advani's Direction is ordinary. Cinematography is fine. Editing is average. Art & Costume Design are perfect. Music by Shankar Ehsaan Loy is melodious.

Performance-Wise: Imran Khan puts up a sincere act as the heartbroken lover-boy, although he impresses only in some scenes. Kangana Ranaut is monotonous. A stereotypical act!

On the whole, 'Katti Batti' works in bits, not entirely.
