Creative Quotient
Rishi (Rehaan Khan) and Sunny (Akshay Kapoor) lead a group of performers who want to make it big. Sunny falls in love with Rishi’s sister Jheel (Bhavna Pani) whom Rehaan has forbidden from dancing because of an unpleasant skeleton in the closet of his past. This becomes the flashpoint just before the interval when during a competition Sunny calls Jheel onto the dance floor. Suddenly, rival Vicky (Siddhant Karnick) has the edge and Rehaan and Sunny break off their friendship, splitting their group into two factions. But Vicky and his lady-love Disha (Sabina Sheema) have planned this, with Disha pretending to bump into Rishi and then fall in love with him so that she can watch the rehearsals and find out the steps that the friends will present during a crucial competition.

Technical Expertise
Debutant director Zaigham fails to give anything gripping, and even the choreography is routine and the music pathetic - in a film based around dance and song! The story and emotions are very superficial and one seriously wonders where Indian youngsters and our filmmakers are heading when they dedicate lives and movies respectively to alien dance and music forms. The dances (including B Boying) look like gymnastics, have nothing to do with India and will find identification only with a negligibly-miniscule section of even the metro youth. One wonders why our filmmakers do not devise rivetting musicals or dance-based stories pivoting around Indian culture.

Akshay Kapoor and Rehaan Khan are quite competent, but Vinod Khanna’s sudden switch from a dance patron to a super-fighter is ridiculous, and even more laughable is the end-video that has the villain of sorts dancing with the heroes to yet another bad song. Technically, the film is so-so. One wishes that the film had more depth to offer in terms of content and a higher entertainment quotient. Zaigham’s sincerity is obvious but his content does not match. And the problem with this one is not that it is a bad film, but just that it has no direction, depth or purpose.
