Directed by: James Anthony

Starring: Pamela, Joy Mukherjee, Bobby Mishra, Judhajit Banerjee

This is Notting Hill-meets-Love Story, served with Tollywood’s special logic-defying situations and scenes as topping.

Raja (Joy) is a dancer who dreams of being a choreographer and is bugged by his jealous boss. The fate of heroine Alisha (Pamela) is no different. She’s exploited by her unemployed goon of a boyfriend Rony (Bobby Mishra). Their troubles bring boy and girl closer and the superstar falls in love with the common man after the song-and-dance routine.

From then on, things start rolling at breakneck speed, crushing all barriers raised by logic.

Alisha spends a night in Raja’s shack only to wake up with the media at the doorstep. Assuming Raja to be a party to it, she walks out on him. The boyfriend is at hand to abuse her some more and Raja promptly lands up to rescue her and rush her to the hospital. There the doctors pronounce Alisha to be in the terminal stage of lung cancer. With only a month to live, the heroine decides to give up her glam life and live with Raja in the slums like a ‘common girl’.

Contrived situations and too much melodrama don’t take the story anywhere. Joy Mukherjee is flat in the emotional scenes, while Pamela lacks the aura to pull off her superstar act. Even Bolly choreographer Ganesh Acharya fails to raise the bar for the dance sequences. Kamal Xavier’s cinematography is the only saving grace.
