Koi Jaane Na

In theory this film could have been very good, unfortunately poor acting, poor editing, poor direction destroyed it. At times it became comical. Don't waste your time.

First the film has some really shoddy camera work & editing. It seems the editors were running out of time & some scenes look like amateurs doing a vblog on mobile phone.

The plot is very stereotypical & you can correctly guess the 'real killer' long before the film nears it's climax.

The acting of the most of the cast is good, however Kunal Kapoor needs to show right shades of emotions in the thriller sequence, a romantic boy expression in thriller sequence completely takes the mullah out of the scene.

There are some big holes in the story, but I would ignore for sake of 'artistic liberty'.

If you are spending sleepless night, then this is the film you are looking forward to put you to sleep.

"Koi Jaane Na" is an alumnus get together for "Rang De Basanti", with Kunaal Kapoor leading the cast, and Aamir Khan and Atul Kulkarni appearing in cameo roles. The film begins with a promise - Kunal Kapoor plays Kabir Kapoor, an inspirational writer with one bestseller under his belt, but suffering from a writer's block that prevents him from finishing the promised sequel for which he has taken a handsome advance payment. But he doubles up as a pulp fiction author (with Zaraan Khan as the fictional mercenary) under a different name to get away from legal issues, and moonlights as a vigilante. Quite a handful for an individual, I must admit.

Whilst all this is explained in the first 20 minutes and we expect the film to go down the vigilante route like Batman or Shahenshah, Koi Jaane Na takes a somersault and hurtles down an altogether different route. It throws a Googly - Kabir starts romancing a young, Bohemian girl Suhana (Amyra Dastur) who he befriends on his journey to Panchgani to rediscover his writing skills. It's no ordinary love story - it's one peppered with a couple of murders, Zaraan Khan coming to life, mannequins and masks popping out of hidden chambers, a seductive housemaid with no oomph whatsoever, and a dubious blackmailing effort by a couple of comical characters who try their level best to appear menacing. The result is that whilst you were expecting the pace bowler to charge you with a heady fast ball, you get a Doosra - and you don't know what to do with it. It takes a strange turn where the focus shifts from Kabir and trains itself on Suhana, thus making a lot of what was essayed earlier redundant and slowly but steadily, becoming grossly predictable. The climax is aimed to be kept open ended for interpretation, but it's underwhelming and lacking the punch it deserved.

You may have heard mixed reviews of Koi Jaane Na, but the film failed to make its mark with me as I felt cheated. There are innumerable loose ends, tacky editing and poor performances galore. Roles of Vidya Malavade, Near Mahajan and Achint Kaur are extremely poorly etched out, and Kunaal Kapoor and Amyra Dastur make a lightweight couple. The only person who does some justice to the role is Ashwini Kalsekar as the investigating police officer.

Childish, amateurish and unimaginative. I've seen better direction and writing by youtubers. This should be a lesson on how not to make a film. It's terrible to the lvl of being YUCKY.

One of the best movie I have ever watched 500 core movie for sure . Biggest blockbuster ever released .it should get nominated for the oscars 😂 ( they made fool by showing Amir khan cameo) and wasted our 2hrs.hvnt watched such useless movie.
