Khamoshh... Khauff Ki Raat

Khamoshh... Khauff Ki Raat review :

Deepak Tijori's second directorial venture after the failed Oops (2003) was an unofficial remake of Hollywood psychological thriller Identity (2003). While the Hollywood original was a super chilling experience, Khamoshh...Khauff Ki Raat was filled with lacklustre performances, inept execution and a confusing narrative ending in an unsatisfactory climax. The sexy Shilpa Shetty with her super sensuality and oomph was the only redeeming factor, if you can count that!!

I THINK ITS NOT A VERY GOOD REMAKE OF IDENTITY .BUT IT KEEPS YOU GUESSING TILL END . I HAVE WATCHED IDENTITY 11 TIMES , SO I CAN SAY IT COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER . BUT YOU CAN WATCH IT IF YOU ARE FED UP WITH TYPICAL BOLLYWOOD MOVIES.I THINK DEEPAK SIR DID A GREAT JOB, ALL CHARACTERS DID A GREAT JOB . OVERALL 7/10

Movie is very interesting from the start to end. I haven't seen the original movie Identity-from which this movie made. But this is much better than Mahesh Bhatt style seductive cloning of English thrillers. Only two songs bore us least and movie goes in nice flow. All relatively junior star caste has done good job, Rajiv Singh(his debut movie), Vrajesh Hirji, Vishwajeet Pradhan impress with their role. Shilpa Shetty got the role which she suits while Juhi has done her bit well. I wish Dipak Tijori could have played some role. I have special admiration for Rajivsingh, he looks smart and acted well for the first movie. End is bit strange and I would have liked some more reasoning of the way movie was ended.

Despite having such a large star cast, Khamoshh fails to live up to expectations. Except for Shilpa Shetty and the girl who plays the famous actress, all the performances are not that impressive. The girl who keeps on saying "Hum sab marenge" is really irritating. The dangerous killer's "menacing" grins are quite comical. It's really sickening when the actual culprit is revealed. The movie also ends on an unpleasant note. However, one thing I did like about the movie is the fashion in which it is told. A shocking event occurs out of the blue, and then the film reverts to a flashback to explain that occurrence. Then, within that flashback the same thing happens resulting in a flashback within a flashback and so on. It's something very new in Bollywood. This technique does a good job in speeding up the pace of the movie.

Woah! I just finished watching Khamoshh Khauff ki Raat! The movie was much better than I thought it to be. It's exactly like 'Identity' until the very end. I thought this one had a better ending. Of course the main reason why I watched it was Juhi and Shilpa and I'm glad that they shared the screen too! Anyway, Juhi plays a psychiatrist, a very sexy one! I mean she wasn't playing a seductress or anything like that but man, even as a dedicated psychiatrist, she can stop your heart from beating. I have yet to see a sexier psychiatrist in Bollywood cinema! Sridevi played one in Kaun Sachcha Kaun Jhootha but she wasn't really a dedicated psychiatrist because she went against the ethics by seducing Rishi Kapoor. Anyway, watch Khamoshh. It's really not as bad as people made it out to be! Next to Juhi, there's the amazing Shilpa who even performs an erotic foreplay number. Both actresses (as usual) performed well too besides being hot!
