Aap kaa surroor the movie review

By Taran Adarsh, June 29, 2007 - 12:31 IST

Television producer. Music composer. Singer. And now actor. Oh yes, Himesh Reshammiya wears many caps. Literally! Everyone's curious to know how HR is as an actor? Is he a fine actor? Or has he strolled into the wrong alley?

Don't expect miracles. HR is no Dilip Kumar, Amitabh Bachchan, SRK or Aamir Khan when it comes to histrionics. He's not the best looker in town either, not anywhere close to Salman Khan, Hrithik Roshan or Akshay Kumar.

But you've to hand it over to HR for being the most courageous and confident person around. Can you ever imagine actors like Amitabh Bachchan or SRK turning music composers overnight? It's difficult to take risks, especially when you're under a scanner constantly. Like the famous lines go, every step you take, every move you make, the world'll be watching you…

Write your own movie review of Aap Ka Surroor - The Moviee
Let's get one more thing straight. AAP KAA SURROOR is no amar prem kahani. The love story is the type we've watched a zillion times on the screen before. But what saves the ship from sinking is the fact that the turn of events unfold at a feverish pace and before you realize you've been there, seen that, you're already watching the next link to this story.

So what's the verdict on AAP KAA SURROOR? It's crystal clear. The curiosity to watch HR 'act' will ensure his fans and foes making a beeline for movieplexes at least once. HR is sure to have his share of bouquets and brickbats. Bouquets, because the musical score of AAP KAA SURROOR is tremendous. Besides, he has handled a few emotional moments without trying to ape any actor. He's natural. Brickbats, because the film rests on a thin plot. Plus, the writing gets so filmy that you know exactly what the film is all about, at the start itself.

All said, watch it for Himesh Reshammiya take a giant leap. At least he has the guts to chase his dreams!

AAP KAA SURROOR begins with a dead body of a TV journo, Nadia Merchant, being found in a remote area, somewhere in Germany. Soon after, HR is arrested after a concert for murdering the television journalist. HR is put behind bars and the incidents begin to unravel as the movie goes into a flashback.

While on a concert in Germany, HR meets the event organizer [Darshan Jariwala] and his partner [Mallika Sherawat]. He also meets the event planner [Hansika Motwani] and its love at first sight. Love blossoms. After initial reservations, Hansika's father [Sachin Khedekar] approves of the match.

Things take a turn when HR is arrested. He asks Mallika, also a lawyer, to bail him out. But hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. Mallika is in love with HR, but the rockstar loves Hansika. He escapes from his prison cell after taking the murdered TV journalist's father [Raj Babbar] as captive. He has to find the actual murderer in one single day, or else his sweetheart will be married off to someone else.

AAP KAA SURROOR starts off as a love story, but gets into the thriller drive subsequently. A key factor that goes in its favor is that the events unfold at a feverish pace, giving no time to the viewer to think or break into a yawn. Besides, the film bears a stylish and glossy look and the viewer is enamored by the stunning locales of Germany as also the melodious musical score that has been filmed on some striking locations. This one's an eye candy!

But what acts as an eyesore is the screenplay; the way the writers have penned a script of convenience. Take for instance the climax. The villain's confession is telecast 'Live' after a deadly chase, so much so that even the dulhan [Hansika] and her father call off the saat pheras after watching the television that's placed next to the mandap. Even the auto-rickshaw sequence looks so weird. Besides, the writers should've kept the identity of the killer concealed right till the end, like it happens in Abbas-Mustan's movies. That's the hallmark of a thriller!

Prashant Chadha knows the technicalities right. The film bears a stylish look all through, but Prashant should've been a bit more real and believable as far as the scripting is concerned. Latching on to the tried and tested stuff doesn't do justice to the tagline of the film -- 'The Real Luv Story'. HR is in form as a composer and every song is a musical gem. However, 'Mehbooba' deserved a better placement. Cinematography [Manoj Soni] is superb. Dialogues are alright.

As mentioned earlier, HR looks confident all through, although he depicts emotions like anger, anguish and sadness far more effectively towards the post-interval portions. Of course, there's room for improvement, but for someone who's playing a 'hero' for the first time, it's a fine attempt.

Hansika is a powerhouse of talent. Although she's no stranger to movies [having done a few films as a child artiste], she makes her big screen debut with supreme confidence. She's extremely photogenic too. Mallika Sherawat is interesting, although her switchover [from negative to positive] looks abrupt and artificial.

Shravan [introduced in KUCH MEETHA HO JAYE], as HR's friend, excels. Bani is fair. Sachin Khedekar does well. Darshan Jariwala goes over the top at times.

On the whole, AAP KAA SURROOR has tremendous curiosity-value attached to it. And that, in turn, will ensure a fantastic opening for the film. The superb promotion [quality and quantity] has created tremendous excitement for the film, which will result in the box-office singing a glorious tune in the final tally. For its distributors, the fabulous opening will have them singing and laughing all the way to the bank. Critics be damned, this one's for the masses!

Mallika Sherawat and hotshot music composer, Himesh Reshammiya, have formed a mutual admiration society, it seems. The bearded music director-cum-singer-turned-actor is ever so grateful that the sexy actress agreed to work in AAP KAA SURROOR, his first film as a hero.

In fact, Himesh looses no opportunity to express his happiness about the fact that Mallika's name adorns the cast list of AAP KAA SURROOR.

On her part, Mallika Sherawat openly declares that she is the biggest fan of Himesh Reshammiya's music, as a smile breaks on Himesh's serious lips.

Himesh to do sequel to 'Aap Ka Surroor'

Aap Ka Surroor - The Moviee : | Stills


Mumbai, June 18 (IANS) Music composer-singer Himesh Reshammiya brushes off all criticism of his decision to turn actor with "Aap Ka Surroor" and says he is already planning a sequel to the film which is yet to be released.

"I'll of course be a musician at heart. But I'll continue being an actor. First, though, a long break after 'Aap Ka Surroor'. I intend to take a two-month holiday. Of course, my future as an actor depends on the fate of my debut. But I'll definitely do a sequel," Himesh told IANS in an interview.

"Of course, Hansika (Motwani who stars in the first film) will be with me in the next film."

"The weather at all my locations has been kind. I'm feeling very grateful. We've completed the film on schedule. Yes, some people have not been too kind to me or my project. I guess everyone who enters a new field has to go through the grind. I've to prove myself. Until I do I'm open to ridicule. But 99 percent of people have been kind.

"As for the smirking minority who're questioning my right to be an actor, let the film come. I've got positive responses from everyone. I started my career as a serial producer, even then I faced rivalry. I've changed profession several times, from producing serials to composing music to singing to doing music videos and now I've come to acting. The number of professional rivals has been accordingly large.

"My acid test was the dialogue promotional clippings for 'Aap Ka Surroor'. The film didn't go thanda when the dialogues came on. In fact it has been sold to distributors everywhere. That has given me a high."

To Himesh, acting came easy. "I'm very comfortable facing the camera. I feel as much job satisfaction as an actor as I do as a musician. Now it's up to the audience to decide how much they like my acting."

The film also stars Mallika Sherawat. In fact, Saroj Khan has choreographed the song "Mehbooba" in "Aap Ka Surroor" for her. And everyone is wondering how it compares with Ganesh Hegde's "Mehbooba" in Ram Gopal Varma's "Sholay".

About the leading ladies, Himesh says, "Both Mallika and Hansika were signed before we left for Germany to shoot. We never made any effort to hide the fact that Hansika was a child artiste or that she was doing a south film before she was signed for 'Aap Ka Surroor'.

"As for Mallika, hers isn't a 10-minute role. She's done two songs and that itself comes to 11 minutes. Mallika is very annoyed by the rumour about her abbreviated role and also about the speculation on her fee. She has been paid what she deserves. No more no less."

Himesh enjoyed shooting the "Mehbooba" song with Mallika. "She's a thorough professional. And I must say she plays the part of Helenji from 'Sholay' very well. My director, Prashant Cheddha, has tried to bring in the authentic 1970s feeling from "Sholay" into the song. He has also brought in the modern setting of James Bond's 'Casino Royale'. Prashant is a director to watch."

Talk veers to Sonu Nigam's allegation that Himesh planted men to disrupt the former's concert in the US.

"Aisa kuch bhi nahin hua," protests Himesh. "I'd never stoop so low. I don't need to. I've always maintained Sonu Nigam is the best male singer in the country. I've no clue why those statements against me are attributed to him. Even if he's speaking against me I still say he's the best. And I wish him all the best. He's a colleague. We've worked closely together. I harbour no ill-will against him. Let him say those things in my face. Then we'll see."

Some filmmakers think Himesh has been neglecting his work as a composer to be an actor. "My 'Namaste London' as a musician is a big hit. Please remember there are only 10-12 hits in a year. Incidentally, 'Red' was a flop. But the music was a hit. I've never neglected my job as a music composer."

"For 10 very dramatic minutes I appear without a cap. Even in the 'Mehbooba' song I appear without the cap for half the film. People will get to know through the film why I wear a cap."

He thinks for a while, "All the controversies have kept interest alive in the film. I hope the film lives up to the hype."

Strangely, Himesh's lucky mascot Salman Khan doesn't figure in "Aap Ka Surroor". "I never asked him to be in the film. But, yes, my dad's, god's and Salman's blessings are with me."
