Movie Review: Raaz 3

When Shania (Bipasha) loses her coveted top actress crown to Sanjana (Esha), she turns to black magic to torture and discredit the new comer, through her director boyfriend Aditya (Emraan). However, when falls in love overnight with his new actress, Shania goes for the kill. Will black magic win over Ganapati's power?

If you think the story lacks punch, you are right. If you expect anything different from the rest of the movie, you are very wrong!

Right from one of the opening scenes, with a Bollywood award ceremony being held in what looks like a municipal school auditorium, you know you have made a bad choice of entertainment. As the time goes by, you are taken back in time to those ancient movies that ran on DD on Sunday evenings...

Extremely poor production quality, mediocre acting (Emraan looks lost, and both Esha and Bipasha are pathetic, and with their polished muscular bodies, reminded me of the newly sprayed-on Yokohama AT tires on my Endeavour), a very poor sound track and entirely forgettable numbers (again, very unexpected with Emraan's reputation), a very predictable story, bad execution and a terribly stretched ending making this movie unbearable.

In the horror department, the joker scene, the servant's suicide scene, and the party-insects scene could have been masterpieces, but are destroyed by the puppy-like screaming from Esha Gupta.

Take my advice, let the Raaz remain a raaz, and go ahead do something useful with your life!
