i watched it online and i fell asleep in the middle and woke up at the climax...

somehow i found it boring and stopped caring where her husband was!

dont think it's best thriller ever or anything like people have been saying but great that its doing good business... more power to heroine based films but i didnt like it!

Kahaani is a good movie and excellent performances from Vidya and others have helped it consolidate its position.

A movie which doesn't have a good story or script, doesn't work anymore, in spite of good performances. If that was the case, we would have had a whole lot of hits where the story/ script is tacky, though there are a few exceptions to the rule.

Vidya has definitely not overshadowed the movie - but she is in discussion cos she's the lead protagonist.

People do go back and read some thrillers/ suspense stories, even when they already know the climax (anti-climax or whatever). So even if some of us had guessed certain portions of the movie, that still doesn't take away anything from it - cos it has been made well and received well. If that was the case, no thrillers/ suspense ctories/ spy thrillers would have been re-watched.

Kahaani is not a thriller story onl;y - it has a human angle added to it and also reaches out to the wide population in terms of its scope of the 'loss of life and livelihood' due to terrorism. Thankfully, most people seemed to have got the message right.

@Taify : the answer to ur question Vidya overpowering kahaani...lies in the marketing and promotion...the film heavily promoted on Vidya why it wasn't promoted with inspector Rana or indraneil...are they much less talented actors...not at all...so the one who promotes the film maximum shall take the cake clearly and u can't blame the actor for that. its business...

therefore kahaani is nothing without Vidya u can't expect any actress do it...noone

if you take Vidya out of Kahaani! The film wouldn't have done half the business it's doing right now. People were abit worry cause it all depends on one woman force without any big star. if Vidya wasn't apart of kahaani it would've been an above avarage grosser like TSM. It's prove Vidya was the clear crowd puller.

Completely agree with it
