I don't know where to even start..I doubt any of the makers or actors will even read what I have to write....because poor things are too busy living in denial...hence twitter and insta is a far safer option...I think!?
Anyway....my gawd...I am somewhat attached to KZK 1...I used to love it! It takes me back to my childhood. I was not a regular viewer, but I always remember being entertained by an episode of KZK whenever I watched it.
Because the acting, direction and screenplay was top notch. It was always good fun to escape into an alternate universe where everyone was rich, beautiful and weird all at the same time. It had a uniqueness to it. In spite of it being a show not close to reality, the characters moved you to tears at many instances. The actors made the show addictive.
But KZK 2? My Gawd! Forget matching up to the predecessor, it is not even a good show by 2018/19 standards! That's right that is how bad the show is!
I don't even know what to say, this show is so bad, that it seems like a waste of energy to even diss it! Agree with most reviews on this page!
Everything about this show is sooo bad from acting to screenplay to direction! Everything is just terrible! Special mention to the pathetic acting though!
I don't understand how anyone stands Erica Fernandes! She is soooo bad! She is a big time robot! With zero emotions! I have not been annoyed with anyone's acting this much! Even if she is required to be dramatic she shouts out words without feeling an ounce of it! How can anyone be so robotic and bland? I don't understand! Other actors in the show are also terrible, but she is beyond terrible! I don't understand how she has fans who support her, news flash she was terrible in KRPKAB too!
The only good actor in the show was KSG! He brought some class to the terrible show! But this show is not use to having class, hence they butchered his character too!
Prerna is 30 months pregnant now, and now they are utilising aamna sharif to save their show! My advice is give up! The show went down to rank 15 in the second week itself! Memes and jokes were created straight after the first episode! Give up!
No one wants to watch your classless show! KZK1, SRK, statues, HINA KHAN, KSG or AAMNA cannot save it! They are not the leads! GIVE UP!

O I have watched this movie a few times, there is something about this movie which makes me revisit it every now and then. Suddenly I saw it on my Netflix new releases, then I saw it on my trending list, and I knew that I will be watching it soon enough, and then I did.
The first time I watched the movie, I was pretty young, and I had no analysis, as a matter of fact I watched it on a pirated print the first time. Anyway, at that time all I deciphered I was that the movie was weird, something that I still think the movie is.
The movie starts with showing Shaukat Vashisht (Sanjay Dutt), as a once famous writer. He is shown to be bogged down by critics, this however does not change his proud behaviour, as a matter of fact I think it stems more arrogance in him.
Shaukat is shown to be arrogant, eccentric, crazy and madly in love with his wife Antra, played by Aishwarya Rai. His character is shown to be suffering from a writer's block, and he soon starts using his wife as a muse for his writing by encouraging her to have an affair with a co-worker at her college, and things start to unravel.
Later what follows, is pretty weird, Shaukat starts believing that whatever he writes becomes reality. After this point, everything is up to interpretation.
Now this movie is pretty flawed, because a lot of the movie seems very abstract, and doesn't really give real insight on characters, or the story. The writer does not seem to explore why Shaukat is the way he is. He is most probably suffering from schizophrenia, but does the maker really have good insight into what that really is? or why does Shaukat have it? not really, all of it is very abstract.
I have watched the movie a few times, and I have understood a few things about the character of Shaukat. Shaukat's arrogance probably stems from low self-esteem. Shaukat is someone who has been constantly humiliated by the press, as his last written book did not do well. This of course affected his self-esteem.
His low self esteem also makes him question his relationship with his wife Antara. Antara is someone who is very traditional in her ways, and seems to adore Shaukat, but I think Shaukat starts questioning whether Antara actually loves him or is she just with him due to being very set in her ways. I think at least subconsciously, that is also an underlying reason why he asks her to have an affair.
However why exactly he starts hallucinating or suffers from a half-baked version of schizophrenia is something that is not convincing to me as an audience. It is convincing in some parts, but not in others. Maybe because the director does not explore it enough.
I have watched Sanjay Dutt play a character who is a writer and has low self-worth in Saajan before, however Shaukat in Shabd is miles apart from Aman in Saajan. Aman was a very simple and innocent young boy. He was comfortable with his vulnerabilities. Shaukat on the other hand is full of arrogance and anger. He is not comfortable with failure.
I personally feel uncomfortable watching Sanjay Dutt play someone so arrogant, because it is something he has not done before. He does do a really good job of it though. Don't even get me started on Antara or Yash (the man she has an affair with), both characters are very poorly written and together they bore me to death.
Even though the movie is flawed, there are several reasons why I end up watching it once in a blue moon. I think the most important reason would be Sanjay Dutt, his character and his acting keeps me engrossed.
I don't think anyone else could do justice to this movie the way he did. One has to see to believe what this man is capable of. His breakdown in the end, when he cannot find the last page of his book, is something so brilliantly done. Such amazing acting.
It is no wonder that director Leena Yadav raved about Dutt stating that "Sanju... breaks the line between acting and being. There are many moments in the film where he rose above the script."
Aishwarya Rai, offers ample support. To borrow from an imdb user "I've never seen Aish look so alluring with another male costar.. But it looks like she's got a thing for Sanjay with the way they interact on screen. What a great looking couple." I could have not agreed with this opinion more, I love the way Aish looks at Sanju throughout the film, with so much admiration and love, I have not seen such chemistry of hers with anyone else.
Another great reason to revisit this film is the brilliant music. Sonu Nigam, Shreya Ghoshal, Sukhwinder Singh, Vishal-Shekar and Sanjay Dutt all contribute greatly to my favourite tracks of the film. My top 3 tracks would be "Khoya Khoya," "Bolo To," and the soul stirring "Mat Jaa."

I think Vidhu's other work is pretty overrated and Mission Kashmir is actually very underrated! I watched this when Hrithik's hysteria was on it's height, and I myself was pretty obsessed with him. But over the years I have come to appreciate the real essence of the movie, and that is the one and only Sanjay Dutt! For me this is his most brilliant performance! No one could have pulled off the character of Inayat Khan as well as he did!
This movie is amazing and deserves a lot more credit then it gets. Sanjay Dutt's acting in it is terrific, his performance in this movie always moves me to tears. Not once does Sanjay Dutt's acting gets "theatrical" but it is still so impactful. He doesn't say much yet his eyes have so much to say. His random outbursts of sadness, anger and anguish is something that is to watch out for. And like his every performance he puts a lot of himself in the character. Inayat Khan is not perfect, but he has a good soul, a heart that is in the right place. Inayat Khan is most of the time full of strength and is the protector, however that does not mean he is not capable of crying like a baby when it hurts way too much. Honestly I see a lot of Sanjay Dutt in this character, it is a character that was meant to be played by him. Sanjay Dutt is a potent mixture of vulnerability and strength and so is Inayat Khan, and that is exactly why the character comes alive, the character feels very real and it moves you at every moment. The character is portrayed brilliantly, and even though Sanjay Dutt did win some awards for it, I do not think this movie and his acting in it got it's credit. This movie is a ahead of it's time and is an underrated gem. It makes for a splendid watch. Too bad it came at a time when romances and comedies were the "in thing."
