Different movie, worth watching.
If one is looking for typical Bollywood fare or cannot handle atypical sexuality, stay away from this movie.
The movie certainly lacks in many ways: the acting was average at best. Isha Koppikar (Tanya) overdoes it, Amrita Arora (Sapna)is barely believable, and Aashish Chaudhary does what he could to support them. Some scenes such as Tanya's 'Matrix' style fights were pathetic and laughable. The music was fair, but the sceneries (including the human scenes) were delightful! Isha is very pleasing to the eyes in this movie, and I hear that Chaudhary excited his female viewers too. There were a few 'hot' scenes, very suggestive, very fleshy, but no explicit sex, no lip to lip meets.
The movie touches on a few social issues. Why did Tanya become the man-hater that she was? Is this a current issue in India? From what I have been hearing, very much so! The movie certainly explained why she became a man hater, but I have trouble believing that the movie suggests that it was the direct reason for her lesbian leaning. I can more accept that it led to her psychopathic behaviour. If it was an attempt to explore homosexuality, it failed; but it successfully said that homosexualism was a part of the social fabric of sex tabooed India, the land that gave us the Kama Sutra and the Tantras... whether we like it or not.
Apart from the lesbian lover element and 'hot scenes', it is a straightforward love triangle story.
If you are the conservative type and are overburdened by too much sexual taboo, this movie is not for you. For the others... it is a good watch. Then wonder why the din, the protests. Then have a good laugh... twice the entertainment on a single billing.
