Ankahee

Truly deep! Some scenes I've haven't even heard top psychologists explain as well. They showed the good and bad side of the main character. Real symptoms like hearing voices, paranoia, loneliness; with realistic consequences. I'm sure it relates to famous true stories. At the end it's about the child that suffered the most that didn't deserve it. Shows the weakness of a human. Not sure if I'd ever be strong enough to forgive like this. The 90s/20s era actually had it all, the cast, songs, stories; explains the automatic judgmental reviews, just because it's raw and not polished, they would rather rate comic book sequels higher. Highly underrated movie, with a good message, "Aa pass aa" song gave me great memories. Salute to the makers! These everyday movies made a big impact in our lives. Thank you!

Ankahee is a simple story about infidelity revolving a beauty queen ,a doctor and a house wife.

Vikram Bhatt undoubtedly proved that he can make sensitive films that can be appreciated by viewers that go for more than just dumb entertainment in a film.

Esha Deol truly shines in the film.She definitely deserves at least an award for her exceptional performance in the film.She manages to create so much of hatred but also pity from the audience.She brigthens up every scene she is in.

Aftab also is commendable in the film.

Amisha Patel shocks you with a composed but striking performance as the vulnerable housewife.

The music by Pritam and the lyrics are just wonderful!!! This films are one of those films that do not get much appreciation that it deserves.

On the whole,Ankahee is a film that should be watched only by people who can appreciate sensitivity and realism in films.

I am an avid movie watcher but I watch very selective movies, I think Ankahee was a great movie. On one hand it portrays the problems a single woman faces immediately after she splits with her husband….. her insecurities, her commitments…. everything is brought about fantastically in the movie. The scene in which Ameesha takes a three wheeler in the wee hours of the morning to get a job when her husband legally severs the relationship is very brilliantly portrayed.

On the other hand Esha too suffers a lot; she is however shown as a very intelligent person who predicts every reaction of Aftab. All psychosomatic diseases happen to over-intelligent people and to that extent the director is brilliant. I think it is a realistic and a very well shot movie with Aftab always having undertones of guilt which is very evident when he does not smile completely for a particular photograph which Esha wishes to take. Esha's acting too is very praise worthy.

Whether the film did well or not at the box-office ,I think the film deserves full rating.

It has to be Vikram Bhatt's best film, Aftab's & Esha's acting was excellent. I felt really sorry for Esha although she was dangerous & obsessive especially when she was crying in the hospital. The story is about Aftab who is a doctor and is happy with his married life with Amista Patel but unfortunately an actress & miss world came into his hospital after a failed suicide attempt. Aftab was taking care of her and told the media "It was just an accident". Eventually they both fell in love with each other and that's where they all start to have major problems. The film contains every emotion, its low budget and music is very heartfelt.

This movie is not at all convincing.. How can a reputed surgeon - who is a loving husband and a doting father - can fall in love with a patient with manic depression? He should have treated her as his patient and tried to help her out of her psychological disorder. Even his fellow psychiatrist friend warns him about her.. In spite of all this he falls in love with her and divorces his loving wife and leaves her and his daughter whom he loves very much... Very much unconvincing... Acting wise Aftab Shivadasani is as unconvincing as his role..Ameesha Patel is OK.. There is not much scope for her in this movie. Only Esha Deol is the saving grace. She has portrayed her role as a manic depressed beauty queen very convincingly.. Hrishita Bhatt is wasted in a miniscule role..
