JANNAT Movie Review



The Mahesh Bhatt and Mukesh Bhatt not at all run out of stories. In their new trip JANNAT, Mahesh and Mukesh Bhatt have yet another new story to tell. This time, it’s all about match fixing and bookies. But wait! It would be mistaken to categorize JANNAT as a cricket-centric film. Cricket is just the wallpaper here. The center is on the love story, like GANGSTER which was, at heart, a love story.

What vicious circle you by complete surprise is the fact that JANNAT has been helmed by a debutante director [Kunal Deshmukh] and penned by, again, a debutante wordsmith [story: Vishesh Bhatt; screenplay Kunal Deshmukh and Vishesh Bhatt]. You’re surprised at the level of maturity, the command over the craft, and the display of self-assurance in their very first outing. Honestly, you don’t take to JANNAT instantly. The initial portions – the love story – are firmly chalta hai stuff. But the best part is, JANNAT takes a step forward every 10 minutes. The film actually takes off when the characters reach Cape Town, South Africa. The piece thereafter is of the same kind to a roller coater ride. Right from the interval point to a hair-raising, pulse-pounding climax, JANNAT is another journey altogether. The end, especially, hits you like a ton of bricks [it wouldn’t be right to reveal what happens to the characters].

You can’t envisage JANNAT without Emraan Hashmi. Right from his debut film FOOTHPATH to JANNAT, the actor has only grown-up with the passage of time. The actor displays the gamut of emotions with aplomb, he changes expressions like a chameleon changes colors. JANNAT is yet another turning point in his career. In a nutshell, JANNAT is one of the finest films to come out of Vishesh Films. Not to be missed!

Arjun [Emraan Hashmi] is a reckless young man with an obsession for making money at card games. A probability meeting with a girl in a mall, Zoya [Sonal Chauhan], gives him the reasons he was looking for to move out of his ordinary life. He steps up from playing small-time card games to becoming a bookie. Stuck in a triangle of sorts between the woman he loves and his addiction to make a quick buck, Arjun steps into the world of match fixing. But his dizzy rise attracts the attention of the police [Samir Kochar

    Jannat is a best screenplay movie. The movie has powerful story line. The songs of the movie also awesome. It is a super-hit movie of Mahesh Bhatt. It is true that Jannat without Emraan Hashmi is impossible.
