Review of film Hattrick
BAD TRICK
World Cup mania is still on here in India. The fight for entry in Super8 is one India faces today against Sri Lanka. The wishes, prayers and cheers are on and our Bollywood isn’t behind in this craze. This year Multi starrers with multiple stories hit theatres, glued with different cements. Some used fevistick, some Love, some used Honeymoon, some arranged marriage, some used events of past. The film director initially known for his debut film Kacche Dhagge tried one using Cricket as the pasting factor a movie. Curious enough all stamped to theatres nearby and being monkey in jungle followed the suit….
Setting Cricket as backdrop, the 35mm frame was bout three stories badly combined. A retired bowler David Abraham (Danny Denzogpa) spends his retired life by breathing cricket, training some local boys and watching cricket. A kidney failure comes as misfortune, and lands him at hospital run by non zealous Dr Satyajeet Chauahan. His life is dedicated to treating patients and pointing out mistakes I vegetables cooked by his wife, daily. Then we see a spoof of Munnabhai where an interesting patient David breaks norms of hospital much to dismay of Dr Satya. The other frame is of newly wed couple Sarbjit (Kunal Kapoor) and Anjali (Rimi Sen) whose interests vary as nuclear interests of USA and Iran vary. He cannot stop watching cricket, she can’t stand ball pitching the bat. On insistence of a close friend, she starts watching cricket for cricketers and becomes obsessed with Dhoni’s looks. The marriage starts experiencing waves of Tsunami and then continues saga of wars, emotions, tears and love and all. The third angle of triangle is completed by a janitor Hemu Patel (Paresh Rawal) at Heathrow airport. The aim of his life is to attain a British citizenship and show off t his friends in pub while watching his favorite sport Cricket. Then life takes a new turn when her daughter defies him, citizenship dream has hurdles and his friends find out his real job designation.
Screenplay is weakened by bad cement material used to gel the 3 stories. Considering induviual stories the Danny and Nana’s story and Paresh’s stance are good. Direction is just above average and lacks fresh look. Danny, Nana and Paresh are excellent in their roles while Kunal and Rimi struggling in managing their ones. Music is pale and dialogues are stale. Watch it if you have money to spend and nothing to do.
