I wanted to write about the most ridiculous movie of Bollywood for my 150th run ie review. I am glad to get it in 154 balls, I mean 154 days.


1st fifty - 41 balls (days)


2nd fifty - 45 balls (days)


3rd fifty - 68 balls (days)


The last fifty had been too slow, wasn't it? I hope I improved as long as the contents are concerned.


WASTE OF MONEY?


If we look at any review on this movie, no one has given this movie more than a star. I wanted to give it no star, but I can't dod that. What can we see in the trailers? Quite a big star cast, action scenes, an idiot who keeps on changing his form and some songs which are nothing more than ordinary.


After seeing this movie I realised that ''If there is any hell on earth, this is it''. Hell is too nearby, isn't it? What does this hell have in special? A comic looking skeleton, a fatty Manisha Koirala and an idiot who is supposed to be a snake and somehow manages to come again and again even if we think that this torture is over.


After watching the movie, you can come to a theory - ''the amount of nonsense you will ever be able to see is the calculated time of watching this movie known as Jaani Dushman''. Those who have any itching to waste the money should see it so that they can get tortured for what they does.


ANYTHING WORSE THAN THIS?


The movie has a flash back which shows a snake (Munish Kohli) and Vasundhra (Manisha Koirala) who are in a romantic mood. Due to a swami's (Amrish Puri) curse, these two are seperated as the fatty dies. In order to be reunited with her Munish has to wait till the 21st century when she will be reborn (How many times do I have to say never dance in front of a Bollywood swami? or me when writing a review?).


We are in the 21st century where Akshay Kumar, Sunil Shetty, Aftab Shivdasani, Sonu Nigam, Sharad Kapoor, Aditya Pancholi, Arshad Warsi, Manisha Koirala, Rajat Bedi, etc study in the same college. What a college this one is! Too old students! The fatty is supposed to marry Sunny Deol. They decide to meet somewhere on the Valentines Day, but two of the students make her arrive early and then rape her.


Our snake fellow arrives on the scene and sees her comitting suicide. Snake vows to take revenge and kill each and every one of the college students who are responsible for the incident. Miss.fatty is now a ghostly spirit who helps him on the cause. One by one, all gets killed in the most ridiculous ways? What is the end of the crap? Why can't they kill each other quickly and die so that they can rot in hell?


HOW CAN WE ADJUST THIS ONE??


Simply, we cannot adjust. Manisha Koirala is fat as expected and looks like a ghost even when she is a college student. From her screaming, I realised that she needs to be in the Hollywood movie - ''Scream''.


But sorry Manisha, no fatties allowed in Hollywood. Munish Kohli is as much ridiculous as the fatty, but still a bit better than her. Sunny Deol is not bad in his small role and Akshay Kumar was quite good especially at action scenes and so is Sunil Shetty.


Akshay was the real hero of the movie. Sonu Nigam makes a living hell out of the role given to him which makes us say - ''Snaky, kill this idiot first and save us from torture'' and there seems to be something wrong with Aftaab Shivdasani - some serious trouble - may be. The girls were even worse. Every one is expected to run the maximum from the snaky!


The special effects are too worse to see - just look at the skeleton in the beginning of this movie - it provides high amount of laughter and no horror - it is so cartoon-like. The matrix moves in the movie and the Terminator type holes in the body of the snake made by the rocket launcher is not going to help them and so is that bike stunt copied from Mission Impossible 2.


They even seemed to have had a look at Anaconda and I know what you did last summer and not to forget the mummy. They can't even try to make some original. Lost of them are copied or inspired? Is copying the secret of all flops? Somebody advice the movie makers on this!


One major thing I fail to understand is that the ghost wants all those people dead, not only the two who raped her. Doesn't they have the power to know the truth? And the snaky is throwing all people on its way, but it fails to fight against some individuals - I wonder why. I think that he should try Boost or something like it to improve their stamina, especially as the long fights are so common.....


ANYTHING GOOD FOR VIEWING?


If nonsense can take the form of a movie, this is the one. It provides us with innumerable amount of stupidity which makes it a perfec movie to include in the evergreen flop movies. If you have it, one day you can show this to your kids when grown up and make them laugh. Beware, the copy of this movie may not be available then as this one is expected to be disposed at any time.


Even the songs makes us pull the plug of the television. Make sure that you don't get an electric shock while kicking the television. It may be a very sad experience to get a shock for all the trouble we take.


After seeing the movie, I happened to say - ''If Hitler was there, he would have send these guys to concentration camps''. Even Dracula bhai is so descent considering this unfortunate dignity I got from the movie. Me myself deserve to be in hell for the sin I comitted by watching this movie. doesn't me? I think that most you will be with me there? Won't you?
