Pavan Kirpalani’s story is novel. It provides a déjà vu of STREE [2018] and ROOHI [2021] as BHOOT POLICE can also be a horror comedy. However not like the opposite two movies, BHOOT POLICE focuses on ghostbusters and that offers a novel contact. Pavan Kirpalani, Pooja Ladha Surti and Sumit Batheja’s screenplay (further screenplay by Anuvab Pal and Devashish Makhija) is entertaining. The characters are very effectively fleshed out and the stability between horror and comedy is effectively maintained. A number of soar scares do remind one in every of Hollywood horror flicks although. On the flipside, the primary half is alright and it is solely from the intermission level that the movie turns into intriguing. A number of developments are bewildering. The observe of Inspector Cheddi Singh (Jaaved Jaaferi), in the meantime, is much from humorous. Pooja Ladha Surti and Sumit Batheja’s dialogues are fairly witty and humorous however solely at locations. There was a whole lot of alternative for a lot of extra humorous dialogues in a movie like this.
Pavan Kirpalani’s path is stellar. He has made horror movies up to now and in that regard, he deserves reward for placing up a convincing horror setup within the movie. He handles the comedy effectively however what’s shocking is that even the dramatic and emotional moments are executed properly. The scene the place Vibhooti slaps Chiraunji and the dialogues that observe is memorable. Additionally, the climax has an emotional angle and it is effectively woven into the narrative. Nonetheless, he leaves just a few questions unanswered.
BHOOT POLICE begins very effectively. There’s humour, horror and an sudden twist within the entry scene and it units the temper. The chase sequence on the Tantrik Honest fails to boost laughs. The scene the place Lata is compelled to sing a track by her husband Vinod is horrifying and likewise humorous. However aside from this scene and the start sequence, nothing attention-grabbing occurs within the movie. The curiosity stage will increase solely when Vibhooti breaks the pot. Publish-interval, the humour is minimal and horror will get desire. The final half-hour are fairly gripping. The quite a few twists and the emotional observe works effectively.
RAPID FIRE- Saif Ali Khan & Arjun Kapoor’s LAUGH RIOT| SRK | Kareena Kapoor | Ranbir Kapoor
Saif Ali Khan is the most effective performer within the movie. He slips into the a part of the depraved tantric effortlessly and provides to the insanity. Arjun Kapoor is honest. His function doesn’t enable him to contribute to the laughter quotient. However he appears apt for the half and appears fairly higher than his different movie appearances off late. Yami Gautam is first rate however goes on one other stage within the pre-climax. Jacqueline Fernandez is common. Jaaved Jaaferi fails to boost laughs. Saurabh Sachdeva and Girish Kulkarni (Santu the monk) are there for only a scene and ship worthy performances. Late Amit Mistry (Hari Kumar) has a considerable function and is entertaining. Jamie Lever and Rupesh Tillu go away a mark, particularly the previous. Yashaswini Dayama (Guddi) is just too good. Rajpal Yadav (Goggle Baba) is wasted. The child actor enjoying Titli is lovely.
BHOOT POLICE is a songless movie. ‘Aayi Aayi Bhoot Police’ is performed in the long run credit whereas ‘Mujhe Pyaar Aaya Hai’ and ‘Raat Gayi’ are absent within the narrative. It’s nice that the actors don’t break into track and dance and that the romantic observe between the leads is subtly proven. Clinton Cerejo’s background rating is great and particular point out must also go to Anirban Sengupta’s sound design. It enhances the spooky ingredient of the movie.
Jayakrishna Gummadi’s cinematography is breathaking. The locales of Rajasthan and Himachal Pradesh are captured with finesse. Anita Rajgopalan and Donald Reagen Stanley’s manufacturing design is wealthy and in sync with the movie’s theme. Abhilasha Devnani and Manisha Melwani’s costumes are glamorous. Those worn by Saif and Arjun are fashionable and but go together with their tantric characters. Redefine, Fractal Image Pvt Ltd and Previous Monk Studios’s VFX is a bit unreal however works. Pooja Ladha Surti’s enhancing is easy.
On the entire, BHOOT POLICE has a weak first half however the post-interval parts are fairly entertaining and thrilling. The combo of horror, comedy and emotion makes for an honest watch.
