Kurbaan Movie Review

Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan is finally here. Here’s the Kurbaan movie review for Bollywood movie buffs. The movie is directed by Rensil D’Silva and shot overseas. Kurbaan proves to be a powerful movie of most Hindi movies released during 2009. The movie gives an insight on the psyche of a terrorist and a person who has spent the life of a helpless spectator.

Rensil has chosen the burning issue of terrorism for his debut film. Although the movie is being compared to Fanna (Amir Khan, Kajol) and NewYork (Neil Nitin Mukesh,John Abraham) but there is no similarity. Kurbaan is one of those movies that are not just meant to entertain but in fact they leave an enlightening impact on the spectators. Having said this movie deserves a double thumb up.

Avantika (Kareena Kapoor) is a University teacher in Delhi who has retuned from US to take care of her Dad who has recently suffered a heart attack. During this time she meets Ehsaan (Saif Ali Khan) another professor and hence their love story begins. Few months down the road Avantika gets a call from her University in Delhi calling her back to work. When she tells Ehsaan he agrees to go with her but wants to get married before they leave.

Soon after their marriage they move to NY to start a new life. They are invited for dinner by their Muslim neighbors one day and that’s when the real story begins. Kurbaan is a love story between Saif and Kareena and the story of Islamic terrorists. There are some intimate scenes between the love birds as much touted about on the media. The high point of the movie is its thirty five minute climax. To sum up the Kurbaan movie review I’ll just say its one for the watcher.
