Visfot

Shoaib (Fardeen Khan) is working as a cab driver to make ends meet and has a mother suffering from dementia. In order to look after her, he is stuck in Dongri though he had once left it. He has a supportive girlfriend named Lucky who works at a restaurant. Shoaib's friend leaves a jacket while getting arrested and the jacket contains drugs. A fire accident at home has Shoaib's mother misplace the jacket and now Shoaib is in trouble with a lady Don Acid Tai, to whom the drugs belonged. Elsewhere, Akash (Riteish) catches his wife cheating red-handed and in that process, leaves his child at the restaurant, Lucky works at. Things escalate enough for the kid to land up at Shoaib's house and Acid Tai turns it into a kidnapping for ransom. How does Shoaib and Akash get out of this mess, forms rest of the story.

I have not seen the original and still I felt the film to be dated. Produced by Sanjay Gupta and directed by Kookie Gulati, the screenplay simply lacked the highs and intense moments to sell this story. It revolved around the same Dongri being the place for criminals and a couple pretending to live a posh life while in debt, two opposite worlds colliding while neither of them being truly happy in their respective lives. The narrative remains one toned and sadly, there aren't any memorable characters as well. Seema Biswas in her brief appearance is obviously good but even her role is not the main focus. Both Fardeen and Riteish's roles needed better treatment too. Overall, Visfot falls under "been there, seen that" list of films, offering nothing interesting.

Visfot lives up to its name, delivering a high-octane cinematic experience that keeps you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. This adrenaline-fueled thriller masterfully blends pulse-pounding action with a compelling narrative, making for a truly engaging watch.

The film excels in its relentless pacing, ensuring there's never a dull moment. The intricate plot, filled with unexpected twists and turns, is brilliantly executed, keeping audiences guessing until the very end. The performances are solid across the board, with the lead actors bringing depth and intensity to their roles, making their struggle and determination feel palpable.

If you're looking for a film that combines gripping suspense, explosive action, and a story that genuinely surprises, "Visfot" is a must-see. It's a testament to effective filmmaking that delivers exactly what it promises: an explosive good time.

Visfot, starring Fardeen Khan and Riteish Deshmukh, marks an engaging return for both actors to the silver screen. The movie, directed by Kookie Gulati, is a remake of the Venezuelan film Rock, Paper, Scissors. It's a high-octane thriller with a blend of suspense, drama, and moments of dark humor.

Fardeen Khan, in his comeback role, plays his character with intensity, showcasing his ability to deliver in high-pressure, emotionally charged scenes. Riteish Deshmukh, known for his comic roles, surprises the audience by taking on a more dramatic, serious character. The duo's on-screen chemistry is compelling, as they navigate the tense plot involving crime, betrayal, and moral dilemmas.

The narrative is fast-paced, keeping viewers on edge with twists and turns. While the storyline follows a predictable path at times, the performances and direction make up for the occasional lapses in originality. The cinematography is sleek, giving the film a gritty, urban edge that complements the plot's intensity.

Overall, Visfot is an entertaining thriller that capitalizes on its lead actors' performances, with Fardeen Khan's return being a highlight. It's worth watching for fans of thrillers and those eager to see these actors in new avatars.

We have such an agony that in Bollywood now even for a remake or copying a movie no one is taking an extra initiative or effort to add or create logical scenes as per Indian culture and geographical location. In a first look itself anyone can recognize it's an International copied or remake movie. Our film industry lazy guys are now just copying and pasting the content. Portraying scenes without any logic, promoting extra marital affair, defaming certain areas in Mumbai as Crime Hub shows all in negativity. Fardeen comeback is good but all others actors are OK. A one time watch movie on OTT and not to waste money and time in theatre.

Visfot is a complete waste of 2 hours and 10 minutes. Fardeen Khan, in his attempt to make a comeback, has chosen a story that will likely derail that comeback entirely. Abbas Dalal's writing feels so confused that even Hussain Dalal seems unsure of what to do with the plot.

It's a wasted opportunity for fine actors like Riteish Deshmukh and Sheeba Chaddha, whose talent is completely underutilized here. The kind of movies Jio Cinema picks really makes you wonder if they need to hire a better content acquisition team.

Unless you're looking for a visfot (explosion) in your head, stay far away from this one.
