He said, "Maybe, we were not made for each other. ?Ī post shared by KaranVeerMehra on at 10:11pm PDT A decent and absorbing first hour coupled with soulful music are its aces, although the mediocre, outmoded writing in the post-interval portions leave you a little miffed.#just #clean coz mommy like it this way. On the whole, BLOOD MONEY is old wine with a brand new label. Teeshay, who plays Kunal's colleague Sean, makes his presence felt. Karan Mehra is wasted in an insignificant role. Mia Uyeda doesn't get the scope or the opportunity to prove her acting skills, but sizzles in the portions she appears in. Sandiip Sikcand sinks his teeth into the character and delivers yet another first-rate act. This actor deserves to be seen more on the big screen. Manish Chaudhuri proves his abilities yet again with a luminous performance.

She delivers a power-packed performance and elevates even an ordinary scene with her splendid act. Amrita Puri, who stood out with a fine performance in AISHA, is natural to the core. This should be a fresh beginning for this talented young man.

The actor carries the movie on his shoulders, notwithstanding the discrepancies in the narrative. Kunal Kemmu is super-confident and believable. The stunning locales of Cape Town are filmed exquisitely. Nigam Bomzan's cinematography is top notch. 'Chahat' is harmonious, but its inapt placement raises a query, while 'Jo Tere Sang' is an exceptional track. Like all Bhatt movies, the music of BLOOD MONEY is easy on the lips and has staying power. The writing is evidently not satisfactorily cohesive. But how one wishes the film in entirety had recall value, instead of a few scattered moments. The manner in which the relationship between Kunal and Amrita builds and steadily goes through turbulent phases is remarkably depicted, while the anxiety-filled moments between Kunal and Sandiip in particular and also the one filmed in Angola are significant. Having said that, I'd like to add that Vishal Mahadkar has executed a number of sequences dexterously. Wish the writer was consistent in keeping the viewer absorbed in the subsequent hour as well. A persuasive culmination, in keeping with the quintessence of the film, would've only enhanced the impact of the second hour. Unexpectedly, from a credible, plausible zone, the film deviates into a hard-to-absorb masala-ridden fare that relies on heroism and intrepidness to prove a point. The typical middle class guy, all of a sudden, starts punching the villain's brawny henchmen, after giving them a good chase. However, after an extremely absorbing initiation, after establishing the plot so well in the first hour, the film falters towards its post-interval portions. In fact, anyone who aspires to make his/her life superior would be able to relate to the passion of this guy. The protagonist and his emotions in BLOOD MONEY are very relevant and relatable.

How he struggles to get out of it forms the remainder of this story. Gradually, Kunal finds himself trapped in the midst of a structured white collar crime conglomerate. The perks of the job includes a plush mansion, a swanky car and of course, all the opulence that money can procure. It floats somewhere in between!īLOOD MONEY narrates the story of Kunal and his wife Arzoo, who move to Cape Town after Kunal procures a job with a leading diamond export firm run by Zaveri and his brother. Resultantly, BLOOD MONEY is neither riveting, nor absolutely undistinguished. A few absorbing, attention grabbing moments… a few hackneyed, tried and tested formulaic material. In terms of plot, the narrative and the sequence of events.ĭebutant director Vishal Mahadkar had a gripping premise on hand, but what comes across on screen is a potpourri. As a matter of fact, BLOOD MONEY and NAAM are as different as chalk and cheese. But the resemblance between NAAM and BLOOD MONEY concludes there. A non-U entity dreams of a ritzy abode, a bountiful life, but treads the erroneous path in his pursuit to get affluent. In actuality, BLOOD MONEY is reminiscent of one of Mahesh Bhatt's premium endeavors, NAAM, which brought a turnaround in Sanjay Dutt's career. Conversely, a minuscule fragment of the media is of the opinion that it's a rehash of the Hollywood biggie BLOOD DIAMOND. An aspiring middle class guy who dreams of attaining the luxuries and extravagance that life has to tender, but abruptly locates himself in the midst of notorious people indulging in nefarious deeds - a formula the Bhatts have lucratively mastered over the years. The foremost inkling you get on watching the promos of BLOOD MONEY is that it is reminiscent of Vishesh Films' former endeavors.
