Poor fare

Sawan suffers mainly because of its weak screenplay!


In an attempt to package just about everything in the film, writer has not been able to do justice to the plot.what takes the graph of the film down is the slow pace it moves ahead. The narrative moves at a sluggish pace and the impact gets diluted.Also the climax, which should’ve been the highpoint, looks least convincing.


It is the love story of happy-go-lucky Kajal (Saloni), who is enjoying her life to the extreme with her friends in the urban town of Capetown.There, she meets rich and handsome boy Raj (Kapil Jhaveri) in party hangout carnival and ultimately love. Finally, the lovers get the approval from their parents (Prem Chopra and Ranjeet) and the engagement is fixed. One fateful day Kajal is rescued from road accident by an unknown stranger (Salman Khan). Kajal feels obliged and offers her gratitude but he predicts her father’s death on her engagement day. The fateful day comes and Kajal’s father dies of heart attack. Kajal’s faith in this God’s messenger grows vigorously and she meets him again. This time he predicts the deadly road accident on Mumbai-Pune Highway and it comes true too. Horrified from calamities and disasters she meets him to know her future.


She is shocked to hear that she is very close to her death. Raj tries to console Kajal but her faith makes her believe in the supernatural powers. Kajal is shot accidentally as predicted on the fateful Friday in a police encounter.


The final prediction of Kajal’s death is about to come true. Raj is petrified and shaken with this event and goes to the stranger’s place.


Salman emotes well, but is a complete miscast in the role. A younger hero would’ve been a more suitable choice.Saloni doesn’t get enough scope to display histrionics. Kapeel is alright.Music is apassableand at least two numbers can easily be singled out – the title track and ’MAINE’. Cinematography is okay,


All up Sawaan is too ordinary a fare to leave any impact whatsoever
