This story seems to have it all – drama, love, humor, potential heartbreak, and I so wish it was better executed. To be fair, it does seem to come to life post intermission, where it sparkles with the warmth of camaraderie between the many characters. And there is humor, delivered ably by Sid’s buddies, Omar, played by Raghu Ram (of MTV Roadies fame) and Ankur, played by Abheek Sinha. Where the film fails miserably is in the screenplay, which seems to hinge upon some very quiet dialogues and slow, soulful (not very melodious) melodies. Low impact, little action and almost no character development (what is Mishka like really ?) make moi not so happy.
