Krishna Cottage

Worth watching. Some very scary moments and story will compell you to think about the characters even after movie ends. Suna Suna song is like a cherry on the cake, one of the cult song with its own loyal fan base.

Looks like Ekta Kapoor produces another not-that-great thriller and also uses the same locales. A good thriller usually does have the shocking moments that make you jump in your seat, and this movie "kind of" has some of those, but you have no idea who/what is scaring everyone. Is it a ghost? Is it a murderer? Is it a victim? Nothing seems to make sense. Pointless scaring is not scary at all. The story finally makes sense towards the end, but it's too late by then. Some rather unconvincing scenes are more comical than they are scary. Rati Agnihotri is a good actress, but her ghost scene is absolutely hilarious. Songs are okay. Sohail and Isha gave a decent performance.

I liked the "Bindas" song. Sohail Khan and Natassha had good chemistry. Sohail's character was sensitive to Isha's character another plus point regarding the film. Overall the film was good and I like the TV serials of the production company (Koi Apna Sa was my favorite on ZEE, although I never had a opportunity to watch every single episode!)

The promos of "Aryan" look good. Sneha is definitely a new face to watch out for...I still have to watch "Lucky". From the advertising of "Aryan" she has potential and can play a teenager which most actresses cannot. Aryan is another summer movie I am looking forward to besides the "DaVinci Code".

Getting back to this picture, my favorite memory is the "Bindas" song, a very catchy, hummable sing-along-with type tune. Everyone should watch the movie and enjoy the fun filled song.

The acting is good considering most of the actors are young. Rati is a fantastic actress, I remember watching her films as a young girl. I am glad she is back!

I am partial to thrillers...most of the Hollywood movies I like watching are of the suspense/horror/psychological thriller variety. I have so much catching up to do as far as Hindi films are concerned. I need to make a list and stick to it. So many foreign movies, so little time.

I watched this movie after watching a reel made by Kusha Kapila about POV: you are the ghost from krishna cottage. Rewinded me with that nostalgic song of Shreya Ghosal. The song in the movie was crown. I legit adored the last message of the movie, so basically the movie is a blend of one sided love story and horror. The moral they gave was that the one sided love was and is unfortunate but the holder should realize the message of that love that is to give not to receive. And that the strong love is always one sided and that person has never lose or failed. I loved that message and once again the music aspect of the Bepanah along with the scenes created a heartfelt sensation. Loved that. The concept was good but horror part didn't click well.

Recently, I revisited Krishna Cottage, a film I watched many times during my childhood. Back then, I found it mysterious and slightly scary - especially because of the horror scenes I often skipped. It held a strange charm for me, and I think that nostalgic connection is what made me want to see it again after all these years.

The film begins with an interesting concept - the idea of the "nine and a half stories." That part still feels fresh and intriguing, and it pulled me in right away. But sadly, after that promising start, the movie slowly starts to lose its grip. As the story unfolds, it becomes quite dull and predictable. I found myself feeling bored and disconnected from the plot.

The background score doesn't add much to the mood, and most of the soundtrack is forgettable. Only the last song stood out to me - it's well-composed and works nicely in the context. When it comes to the performances, most of the cast delivers very average work. No one really leaves a strong impression, except Isha Koppikar. I'm not sure if it's her acting or just her screen presence, but she seemed more convincing than the rest.

Overall, Krishna Cottage is an average film with a few interesting ideas that aren't developed well. The atmosphere, music, and acting don't do enough to lift the story. Still, there's something about it - maybe the nostalgic value - that makes me feel connected to it. I wouldn't call it a good film, but if it airs on TV again, I might still watch it, not for the quality, but for the memories attached to it.
