    a cheap lift from Decalogue 6 thou shall not commit adultery

    its nothing more than a cheap lift from Krzysztof Kieslowski's Decalogue six, thou shall not commit adultery.

    the movie fails to inspire, and is a drag, trust me, watch the original one.

    its a classic.

    the film by shashilal nair, crated controversies, of course for wrong reasons, i was inspired to see the film as the film contains some steamy scenes of Manisha Koirala, but unfortunately , there is none....

    A perfect example of how bollywood can destroy even the most well made movies.

    Pathetic, typical Bollywood example of banality and shameless plagiarism

    This movie is an assault to the senses and an insult to intelligence. Crappy Bollywood thieves churn out senseless copies of foreign classics, sans all their dignity, artistic value and finesse. As if murdering Hollywood movies wasn't enough, they are now gleefully mutilating avant garde European filmmakers like Kieslowski and Antonioni. The less said about the actors the better. What else can you expect from mindless copycats? Bollywood stinks! They don't even have the decency to acknowledge the originals. With the amount of money at their disposal, Bollywood guys could have made better movies. At least they are financially much better off than their Iranian, Romanian and Turkish counterparts. But it is the the utter lack of imagination and creativity that afflicts the filmmakers in this part of the world. The exceptions to this (Satyajit Ray, Mrinal Sen and a few other such people) have always been relegated to the periphery of the popular cinema circles of India. Truly unfortunate.

    Disgusting..Worst film of the year

    This is one of the worst Bollywood films ever made. It tells the sickening story of a 15 year old boy who loves a 26 year old women. Its weird, cos the boy is just so annoying and looks stupid. He spends long hours just spying on her with his telescope. Thats right, 50% of this movie, is the boy spying on her. Who is this film aimed at and what kind of people will enjoy this kind of trap. Its like gazing at a security camera hidden in someones room. With respect i would like to add that if the actress was beautiful and sexy, maybe the film would of had a reason to watch it. Manisha Koirala looks old, scruffy and ugly. There are little scenes of sex which is rare in Bollywood. Even these scenes were unsatisfying and turned me off. Manisha has made some of the most bizarre movies in Bollywood, Who knows why she chose this path. Some of these movies include Tum, Escape from Taliban and Market. The twist is even more disgraceful, where the boy stops looking at her and instead she starts spying on him. Rubbish acting from all actors in this movie, bad direction from Shashilal Nair. Do not watch this movie, a big waste of time.

    this movie is a piece of crap

    This movie is so awful doesn't make sense at all such slow scenes to it through although the sexual ones were enjoyable but i just hate this movie it's just bad what world does Shashilal Nair live in first he makes a movie like one 2 ka 4 and now this bull it's just bad mostly the scenes drone on and on on what Manisha Koirala does and well that's just what the movie is about senseless scenes less dialogues just a plain bad movie about a director (Nair) to get the fun out of Manisha Koirala's body and movements just a plain bad movie on a director who's hard to understand Shashilal Nair please get a life and pay attention to what you do in your movies because clearly you just make a movie and give people the idea that just pass their 2 hours by on watching bull in the cinema

    Ek choti si sex story

    Dude, this movie totally sucked. You should've seen the trailer which made it seem so philosophical and so touching and so heart breaking. You'd run to the nearest place this movie was screening after that to see what happened? Nothing of what you expect is found in this movie. Its completely tuned towards lust and sex rather than what the tagline says, for both the boy and the girl. You'd think that the writer at least came up with a good idea but could'nt pull it off, so deserves a little bit of credit. Wrong. This movie's director and writer has completely ripped off another western movie's plot and idea, as well as the story.
