And also about the way we look at relationships. He has taken a step forward in redefining the paradigm of Relationships. A must watch for all who understand the foreplay of emotions. Karan Johar is brilliant, and the intensity of KANK sweeps you off to the magical world of yet unexplored emotions. For, with KANK, he shuts the mouth of all those who call his brand of filmmaking as bubblegum-n-candy-floss. Maybe the initial public reaction may be a bit confusing and a little less encouraging, yet Johar should not lose heart. I think Karan Johar is in the best phase of his career as a master story teller where he has kept the conventional modes of entertainment value in mind (Song-n-dance, lavish costumes and A-list of actors) but at the same time he has daringly broken the conventions as well.
But maybe there are a few problems which take their own course in solving themselves. He tries his level best by collaborating with Dev's mother (Kirron Kher) so that the two marriages could be saved. Rishi's flambouyant father Samarjit Singh Talwar (Amitabh Bachchan) gets to know about the rift in his son's marriage. A bit too close for the comfort of others. After a few funny-n-failed attempts later, they drift closer. They befriend to help each other get closer to their respective spouses. Somehow both are unhappy in their respective marriages. With a limp in his leg and an extra baggage of lost hopes, Dev has a chance meeting with Maya after a gap of four years. Dev meets with a car accident as he is coming out of Maya's (Rani Mukherjee) marriage ceremony with Rishi Talwar (Abhishek Bachchan). Or rather Riya doesn't have much time for her husband and son Arjun (Ahsaas Channa). Both are unable to find time to spend with each other. His ambitious wife Riya (Preity Zinta) is a high profile fashion journalist with `Diva' magazine.
So, you are already too curious! Let me give you a sneak peak into what the story is all about.ĭev Saran (Shahrukh Khan) is an ace club footballer in New York with a sarcastic sense of humour. Yet, it ends on a most unpredictable note. There are moments when you feel the story is going to take the predictable way out. KJ makes it clear in sequencing the entire plot that he believed in his story (Co-written with Shibani Bathija) and is not going to compromise on executing exactly the way he wants to. Yet, the sexual consummation between they-who-commit-the-sin in KANK is more out of a need to establish their Bond rather than a rush-of-teenage-blood. A film that earns him immense respect for the sheer belief in experimenting with a bold subject with enormous amounts of dignity!įilmmakers have experimented with extra marital affairs before this and they shall continue doing after this too. That's precisely the subtext of Karan Johar's best work till date. Companionship is far more important in a world that is breaking apart. And it need not be merely sexual gratification. Maybe, it is also natural to find happiness in someone else's Solitude. As the tepid waters of time pass by, it is natural to be taken-for-granted. In fact the institution of marriage is so sacred that it deserves to be given loads of time-n-importance.
The music of life stops playing a pleasant tune when stagnancy enters a relationship.
