Talaash – A Mystique Search..!

Star Cast: Amir Khan, Rani Mukherji and Kareena Kapoor.
Director: Reema Kagti.
Producer:  Amir Khan, Farhan Akhtar, Ritesh Sidhwani.
Duration: 140 Minutes
Talaash begins with an accident of famous actor Armaan Kapoor on Seaside road of Bombay. Police officer Surjan Singh Shekhawat (Amir Khan) takes up the case, his initial investigation makes him believe that there is more to this case rather than a mere accident, which he is all set to hunt down.
Focusing on Surjan Singh Shekhawat, he lives with his wife Roshni (Rani Mukherji) who is suffering from mental trauma due to the sudden demise of their only son in an accident. Surjan holds himself responsible for his son’s death and is under constant remorse.
Surjan encounters Rosie (Kareena Kapoor) a call girl, who provides him solace from his personnel problems and also helps him with the case by hinting valuable clues.
How Surjan in the process of investigation, unearths several other mysteries that are hidden in the case and his personnel life is the plot.
Talaash as a movies starts with a bang I meant the first half, the way Reema Kagti & Zoya pens down the plot is very intriguing, every shot is full of suspense and thrills. But when it comes to second half the movie becomes very pale and predictable. It’s almost like rollercoaster ride where in you expect a next bump but the ride stops. But still all credit to Reema Kagti & Zoya for a well knitted story.
Coming to direction, Reema’s work is eased done on actor’s performance front all credit to Amir, Rani  & Kareena for some brilliant performances. The most appreciating part of Reema’s direction has been her taking of the movie, especially the way she narrated Mumbai as a city and the characters in it.
Some good cinematography by Mohanan and fine tunes by Ram Sampath just adds in to the movie.
Keep your fingers crossed and set in for Talaash and trust me the search is worth it…!
Rating: 3.5/5
