TheMidayMasala’s Review of: Kurbaan!

In love, there are two important qualities – trust and sacrifice.
Without these two entities- love, a relationship and marriage will not survive. The love story of Avantika (Kareena Kapoor) and Ehsaan (Saif Ali Khan) is the story of kurbaani, vishwas and pyaar.
Kurbaan is a love story at its core with a strong message of faith, the Islamic identity and tolerance running parallel. The intriguing aspect is how director Rensil D’Silva was able to synthesize these messages in his directorial debut so flawlessly. It’s hard to believe that this is D’Silva’s FIRST film. Ever!
So let’s get down to the reasons you should paisa karcho:
5 Reasons to watch Kurbaan:
1. Saif Ali Khan. He is so charismatic, intense and engaging on screen. His chemistry with KK is so electrifying and pure that its unbelievable. You won’t be able to help yourself as you empathize for him.
2. Kareena Kapoor. She is TRULY one of the industry’s finest. Whether she plays a girl falling deeper in love in the first half with bright blue eyeliner and colourful kurtas or the jaded, betrayed and broken wife with no makeup in the second half…your eyes are completely fixated on her. Brilliant. Effortlessly brilliant.
3. Vivek Oberoi. He is the surprise package. Period. He emotes with such depth that its hard to believe that he’s been missing from films because of an unfortunate incident. This will truly be the turning point for his career and a true milestone of his acting potential.
4. The music. The portrayal and the perfect composition of Shukran Allah, Rasiya and Ali Maula are to be watched for the underlying tone by which they move the film forward.
5. The climax. It will have you on the end of the edge, grip you, confuse you, stun you and leave you with perplexing emotions.
SO.
GO. SEE. IT. NOW.
