Review of MR. WHITE MR. BLACK
It’s rough to make a joke. It’s even tougher to make people laugh. With MR. WHITE MR. BLACK you realize that director Deepak Shivdasani’s intentions may be genuine, to make a full-on performer, but the movie fails to transport you to ha-ha-land. It takes off with gusto, but the vehicle runs out of gas suddenly, leaving you trapped halfway.
MR. WHITE MR. BLACK borrows heavily from the tried and tested material. There’s a bit of GOPI KISHAN [Suniel Shetty's twice role won praise then]. Plus, the usual masala that worked at a point of time. However, despite its lackluster content, there’s no denying that a few scene do make you flex your facial strength, even though the jokes are quite childlike. sadly, things take a complete U-turn in the second hour, with this slapstick proving more of a disaster for the hapless watcher.In short, MR. WHITE MR. BLACK is a half-baked fare that try too hard to divert, but fails.
Gopi [Suniel Shetty], a simpleton, arrives in Goa from Hoshiarpur. His assignment – to hand over a part of land to his childhood companion Kishen [Arshad Warsi]. Kishen swindle people with a little help from his accomplice [Atul Kale], to earn enough money to educate his sibling Divya [Mahima Mehta], who’s study in London. Kishen, however, has managed to hide his line of work from Anuradha [Rashmi Nigam] by cooking up an alibi of a twin brother, Hari, who’s the bad guy.
Kishen avoid Gopi like he’s bad information. He’s not going to give up his flourishing commerce and travel to Hoshiarpur just to take possession of a measly piece of land. Meanwhile, diamonds worth Rs. 25 crores have been stolen by three girls, who are now holed up in Goa. Kishen traces the three girls and succeed in rob the diamonds. But the diamonds actually belong to a don, Laadla [Ashish Vidyarti], who has also reach Goa.
That Deepak Shivdasani has an eye for style is visible at the very outset, when the three girls do a heist in broad daytime. The film actually starts off with a beat! A few portions thereafter are evenly attractive, but the writing unexpectedly deviates into surplus territories in the next hour.
get, for instance, Suniel’s nature. He wants Arshad to go back to Hoshiarpur to fulfill a assure, but the reason don’t come across powerfully. Note another point. When the three girls understand that the diamonds have been robbed from their storeroom and they begin a search for Arshad, the story abruptly shifts to various sub-plots: The love attention, followed by the mandatory songs, another 15-20 minutes are devoted to Arshad’s sister’s wedding and much later, the original proprietor of the resorts [Sadashiv Amrapurkar] re-appears on the sight. The three girls eventually show up in the climax. Truly, the second half is disordered!
Deepak Shivdasani shows a style for comedian fares, but is letdown by a hotchpotch script. melody is equally unproductive. ‘Samundar’ and ‘Gopi Kishan’ are standard compositions, but the remaining tracks are lackluster. Thomas Xavier’s photography, surprisingly, lack sheen.
Suniel Shetty repeats his act with no some difference. Ditto for Arshad, who is livewire in some portions only. in the middle of ladies, Anishka Khosla [resembles Preity Zinta from some angles] is an okay performer. But what is the gifted Sandhya Mridul doing in a film like this? Rashmi Nigam looks pretty, that’s it! Sharat Saxena is the only actor who stand out. Ashish Vidyarthi is noisy. Shehzad Khan is funny. Vrajesh Hirjee and Upasana Singh’s path is half-baked. Manoj Joshi deserve a better role. Sadashiv Amrapurkar and Atul Kale are drivable.
On the entire, MR. WHITE MR. BLACK promise only a few moment of amusement, which isn’t sufficient. At the box-office, an loser!
