Kakuda

I watched this movie for the writer Avinash, as I watch his vlogs, thinking that the first creative break for a writer would be pregnant with promise.

This has been a disappointing effort which uses the trope of idiosyncratic villagers with an even more idiosyncratic ghost to deliver gags. I mean why does a dwarf ghost need a smaller door when there is a bigger door through which they can enter? Particularly when the ghost levitates high above the ground.

The ghost itself looks like it was sketched by someone while they were having diarrhea on a public bus being driving on potholed roads. None of the characters are likeable and the audience can't care any more for their fate than the ghost does.

For all its preachy dialogues about people tormenting those who are not normal, the ghost is more gentlemanly in not attacking the woman who holds him while the ghost hunter removes the one thing that is powerful for the ghost. That only tells me that humans are far more violent than even ghosts, but even this aspect was not built upon.

I was neither scared, nor tickled by this tale which has at its core a violent society that condemns those who are abnormal to a fate that is otherwise delivered by a death that visits before consummation of desires - the fate of a disembodied ghost that carries only desires, but unable to open the doors to their fulfillment.

Am a guy who tries to promote low budget but tightly written movies so that those buddy creators can get more audience. But this one failed to make me do so. I didnt refer this flick to any frnd. Why? Because it became boring.

Actors have tried to do justice to the script but script itself fails them.

Story itself was looking like a spoof of Stree but slowly as it progressed it became boring. And nothing was coming out of it.

Vfx was fine ill say. It had good moments. Actually i feel they coudve made it better but unnecessery plot points were there.

Riteish as Ghost Hunter coudve been good.

Guys avoid this, it is not worth your time. Makers please improve.

I am thoroughly disappointed, particularly with Sonakshi Sinha's performance. Her acting lacked depth and authenticity, and her forced, unconvincing accent detracted from the character's believability. It's baffling why filmmakers cast her in a role demanding more skill, especially when there are many talented actresses from small series and independent films. This decision feels like blatant nepotism. It's high time the industry stops promoting mediocre actors due to family connections and instead offers opportunities to those who have honed their craft through hard work. Investing in acting workshops would be a better alternative. Kukuda could have been much more with a capable lead actress. Sonakshi's poor acting skills and fake accent were significant detractors, making the film difficult to enjoy. Let's hope future projects make more thoughtful casting choices and nurture real talent.

Kakuda is a fantastic horror-comedy that will keep you entertained from beginning to end. Riteish Deshmukh and Sonakshi Sinha deliver amazing performances, with Riteish's humor perfectly complementing Sonakshi's charm. The storyline is engaging, with plenty of twists and turns to keep you on your toes. The horror elements are effectively creepy, and the comedic moments are laugh-out-loud funny. The film's production values are high, with impressive special effects and cinematography. The film is a perfect mix of chills and laughs, with a plot that keeps you guessing and entertained throughout. The horror elements are well-done, creating a spooky atmosphere, while the comedic moments are.

Initial start was good with some attraction but it turned out to be a kids story movie. Poor star caste and poor acting without any logic. Things were running from pillar to post. Go for it only if you have nothing to do and want to really waste your time on another non-sense Bollywood movie just like me. Sonakshi Sinha was as usual did not contributed to the movie. Ritesh Deshmukh was just brought to fit a TANTRIK character to conclude the movie at the end. This movie nowhere stand to Munjya which was recently released with small star cast and better script and acting. At last try to avoid even if you have Zee5 subscription for free.
