Movie Review : Kudiyon Ka Hai Zamaana

Producer: Amar Butala, Mejoo Khan
Director: Amar Butala
Cast: Ashmit Patel, Kanika, Kim Sharma, Mahima Choudhary, Rekha, Sachi, Vasundhara Das
Music: Iqbal Darbar-Yasin Darbar

Debutante writer-director Amar Butala’s ‘Kudiyon Ka Hai Zamaana’ does boast of a nice concept. But his inability to provide sharp writing drowns the film. The story seems inspired from TV series ‘Sex And The City’ and what could have been an interesting watch diffuses without offering anything potential. The fizzy and few entertaining moments are not enough to carry a film on its shoulders and this is what the director seems to have misread. Amar Butala lets off the film on a poor note without capitalizing on the opportunity to make it more captivating. He could have attempted being inventive with this chick flick, but now we can only moan what a terrible waste of opportunity.

The film revolves around the female bonding of four ladies Mayuri (Rekha), Natasha (Vasundhara Das), Kanika (Kim Sharma) and Anjali (Mahima Chaudhary). They all live in Mumbai and the story tells how their relationships grows though none of them are in the same age nor they have known each other for long. They met at a beauty salon and have grown to be best friends. They have also explored that they share some common interest like hating coffee shops and kitty party. They make the beauty parlor their hub where they enjoy facials, manicures, pedicures and also spending time with each other.

Though all of them are tied together in mind they dislike Anjali and are jealous of her because of her carefree attitude and flirtatious nature. Anjali dates man and has lots of fun with them. But the others are married and thus miss the fun. Also Anjali annoys them with her betting habits with them in each and every issue and also wins them. These three females are searching for a chance to beat her once. Here begins a conspiracy. They cash on Anjali’s bet that she wouldn’t marry till she's 25. Mayuri, Natasha and Kanika join hands and decide to find a man for her. But here too competition begins between them as each of them choosing a prospective groom for her. Here Anjali meets Amar (Ashmit Patel) and falls in love with him. All these add to further complications, as there are four men behind her each with their motive. Also Anjali realizes the conspiracy soon leading to a confrontation between the friends, which split them apart. What happens next?

The strength of the film is the innovative storyline lapped with happy and emotional moments. But it has not been weaved well enough to our dismay and thus neither the happy moments nor the emotional ones can stir you enough. Also the second half goes lengthy with the story stretching itself setting in boredom for the audience. Climax is also weak and filmy. Amar Butala exhibits some capability in direction but as a writer he is complete spoiler. Music score by Iqbal Darbar and Yasin Darbar is lilting with the songs being a respite in the film. Dialogues are enjoyable.

Rekha passes muster but she needs to keep a check from going overboard. Mahima is more glitz flaunting her skimpy clothes and kiss scenes with Ashmit on the screens. Kim Sharma and Vasundhara Das need to hone their acting skills before they get before the camera again. Ashmit Patel and Sachin Khedekar are okay but Nikhil Chinappa, Gaurav Kapoor, Sanjit Bedi, Kabir Sadanand and Ashwin Mushran are mere gap fillers.

The film doesn’t have the potential to be a great show at the box office!
