Movie Review: Entertainment Missing in Salman Khan's 'Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan'

Even though a good story is important for a successful movie, some directors don't realize how important a well-written screenplay is. This was the case with "Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan," which starred Salman Khan and Pooja Hegde. Even though the movie had a good story and tried to mix comedy and action, it wasn't done very well, which made it boring to watch. The direction by Farhad Samji didn't make the material better, so the audience wasn't impressed or interested.

The story of "Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan" takes place in Delhi and Hyderabad, and the main character is Bhaijaan, who is played by Salman Khan. When he was younger, he saved three other kids from an orphanage disaster (Raghav Juyal, Siddharth Nigam, and Jassie Gill) and decided to take care of them. As adults, they work together to protect their neighbourhood from shady developers. They also make a promise to never get married, because Bhaijaan thinks that no one should break the bond between brothers. Even though this may sound sexist, the group does end up falling in love, which brings its own set of problems. Drama, tears, action, and, of course, the famous phrase "Yentamma" are all in the movie.

Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan's second half, action sequences, and "Yentamma" are worth examining. The film's second half speeds up the pace and gives the tale some direction after the first half's confusion and impatience. The film's highlights are Daggubati Venkatesh and Salman's sad parts and Pooja Hegde and her leading man's light-hearted but romantic scenes. The two protagonists' relationship and the end's well-executed action are other highlights. The metro battle before the break is also memorable. 'Yentamma', with Ram Charan as a guest, is also fun and well-timed. Anl Arasu's action directing is excellent, while Ravi Basrur's soundtrack lifts the duller scenes. These positives can't redeem the film's incoherent plot.

The first half of "Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan" requires significant improvement, particularly in its outdated and offensive approach to marriage. The lack of high points also makes the already lengthy runtime seem even longer. Director Farhad Samji and the writers should have addressed these issues during the writing process, as the predictable screenplay follows a formulaic pattern of heroism, songs, and romance.

V. Manikandan's photography isn't very good and doesn't try anything new. Mayuresh Sawant is in charge of the editing and production, and they seem to be based on soap shows, which is disappointing. The writing of the conversation, especially the efforts at humour, isn't very good. Also, the Maine Pyar Kiya scene with Bhagyashree, Himalaya Dassani, and their son Abhimanyu seems pointless and doesn't add anything to the story.

Performances

Salman Khan delivers a comfortable performance in Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan, excelling in action and dance sequences, but the impact of his overall performance is underwhelming. Pooja Hegde, on the other hand, shines in her portrayal of Bhagya, displaying an effortless blend of humor, charm, and emotions. Daggubati Venkatesh impresses with his performance, particularly in his pivotal sequence towards the end. Jagapathi Babu's screen presence is a highlight, while Vijender Singh's track falls short and impacts the strength of his performance. The supporting cast, including Bhumika Chawla, Raghav Juyal, Jassie Gill, Siddharth Nigam, Rohini Hattangadi, Satish Kaushik, Shehnaaz Gill, Palak Tiwari, and Vinali Bhatnagar, offer able support but are limited by their screen time.
