Main Aur Mrs Khanna

Want to know which movie to avoid this weekend? The answer is definitely Main aur Mrs. Khanna! Ronnie Screwala and Sohail Khan could have as well donated their money to the needy instead of producing this film because I definitely don’t see them getting it back. The movie, directed by Prem R. Soni looks like a rip off from a bad K serial only this time the one committing adultery is the wife.

The plot revolves around Samir Khanna(Salman Khan) and Raina Khanna(Kareena Kapoor) who are a happily married couple. Samir is the loving husband who wants to be successful in life and wants his wife to sit at home and be pampered. Raina who was an orphan finds his love for her exhilarating and loves him for making her feel so loved after a loveless childhood. They lead a satisfying and content life till one day, one wrong decision changes the course of their lives completely. Raina falls for Akash(Sohail Khan) who is a flirt till he meets her but on meeting her realises he has found his soulmate.

The cast has Govinda, Bappi Lahiri, Nauheed Cyrusi and Mehek in supporting roles. The story is based entirely on the love triangle and the decisions all three of them make. The plot seems extremely hackneyed and predictable and the acting skills of the lead characters couldn’t be worse. The role of a loving and caring husband does not suit Salman Khan and Kareena definitely cannot call this one of her best performances. Sohail is extremely irritating and the music is no good either.

The supporting characters have given a good performance and are the only thing good in the movie other than cinematography for which the credit actually goes to the picturesque locales. The movie has more negative points than acceptable and I would definitely not recommend it! The first half is a drag and the second half only gets worse. The only thing good is the item number by Priety Zinta which again is very similar to Aishwarya Rai’s Kajra re. Watch it ONLY if you must.
