Omkara - a review

Hey ppl,

Nice to get back to blogging after a brief break, thanks to the ban.

Y'day Vinaya n I decided to watch Omkara although we knew that there were meek chances of getting a ticket as it was a Sunday. We were lucky that there were exactly 2 ppl who hadnt turned up after booking n we got those seats!:)

Omkara, it seems is an adaptation of Shakesphere's 'Othello'. The story is all about Love, Mistrust, Hate and all the emotions that are associated with these. A lil of stereotype 'gang'ism is put forth too. To give u a trailer, Ajay Devgan, Saif n
Vive(i)k are all part of a gang n work as per orders from Naseeruddin Shah. Kareena Kapoor falls in love with Ajay Devgan and walks away with him against her dad's wishes. The real story begins now! I do not want to be cursed by telling the story as i know a lot of my friends wanna watch it.

I didn't like the script much, although Saif n Ajay Devgan's acting is impeccable! The scenic settings are good too. Kareena, Viveik and Bips dont really have much of a role.

My Rating: * *
