Gupt: The Hidden Truth

What I really love the most about this film is the songs. The music is so magical and a little bit mysterious...Viju Shah did a brilliant job undoubtedly...'Mere Khwabon Mein Tu', 'Mushkil Bada Yeh Pyaar Hai', 'Gupt Gupt', 'Yeh Pyaar Kya Hai' and 'Duniya Haseeno Ka Mela' - these are my personal favorites...

Moving on to the great performances of the three leads...'Bobby Deol' beautifully played a character who is wrongly framed for the murder of his father...During my childhood I was not so fond of 'Manisha Koirala'. But after watching her 'Gupt', 'Dil Se', 'Khamoshi' and 'Bombay', I've started liking her a lot...She is such a brilliant actress...I like to watch 'Kajol' with SRK on screen...My favorite movies of Kajol are - Baazigar, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham and My Name Is Khan...She is paired with SRK in all of these films...Besides these films, I liked her in Gupt and Dushman where she is not paired with SRK...This film is undoubtedly a milestone of these three leads' careers...

Finally, I just want to say if anybody like to watch suspense thriller Hindi film, I must say this is a must watch movie for him/her...

A movie in true Rajiv Rai tradition, Gupt is a big budget suspense thriller. The songs are well shot and the movie runs at a pace which manages to sustain interest throughout. Bobby plays a man wrongfully convicted for his father's murder and all evidence is against him. He escapes from prison and puts together all the clues to catch the real killer. Kajol acts well while Manisha looks cool. In fact she looks better than she has ever looked in all her recent movies. If you like well made Hindi masala movies, this is your movie.

Gupt the hidden truth my all time favorite director after mohra Rajiv Rai made this movie amazing performance by every actor. The music is the best all songs and lyrics and the tunes are still chartbusters. This movie is out and out suspense movie with great background music great direction beautiful locations and great performances by Bobby deol ,manisha ,Kajol , paresh Rawal and om puri must watch

I liked Gupt more than I liked Tridev, Mohra and Vishwathma. The plot was unconventional and some of the songs in the movie were awesome. But I must say the lack of better choreography and good costumes stick out like a sore thumb in most of the songs.

The success of Gupt lies in the brilliant portrayal of one of its leading lady, Kajol. She carries the whole movie on her shoulders. She was thoroughly into her character.

The climax will give you goosebumps. After a lot of red herrings, you can't really guess who the real killer might be. And that's where the victory of the script and the director lies.

There are lots of characters in this movie though. But these characters are added to heighten the suspense.

Bobby Deol is strictly okay. He should cut his hair and develop a strong screen presence like his brother Sunny Deol. Manisha Koirala looks good but looks heavy and wears clothes that accentuate her heaviness. The rest of the cast are okay but Om Puri stands out among the rest. I liked the way he mouths his dialogue.

Overall, Gupt is a must watch for Kajol fans! Go watch it with an open heart.

Gupt works pretty well for the most part. The only drawback is over length. Roughly forty-five minutes could have been edited out without any loss of plot clarity. The film is basically an enjoyable whodunit with Bobby Deol falsely accused of murder. While the songs increase the film's length, some of them are definitely worth watching. Kajol does well in a slightly underdeveloped role. Manisha Koirala provides high-wattage glamour. The various twists and turns help hide the truth regarding the real killer, though it becomes obvious who it is long before the end.

Overall 6/10
