Karam goes beyond the expected
Starring John Abraham, Priyanka Chopra, Shiney Ahuja, Bharat Dabholkar. Directed by Sanjay F Gupta Rating: **1/2
While some films have their finger on the pulse. This one has its pulse on the finger. In one heart-stopping sequence the ruthless mobster, mysteriously named Captain, chops off the ethereal Shalini's finger and sends it in a gift box to her tormented husband John.
Remember Brad Pitt being similarly 'gifted' in Seven? Don't expect the immense intensity of Seven to hit you in Karam. But music-video maverick/cinematographer Sanjay F Gupta does wallop a punch or two in the solar plexus with his unusually violent, skilfilly narrated story of an assassin's brutal efforts to come clean.
It's an uncluttured story, written with panache and passion by the talented Suparn Varma who last week, succeeded in creating a freshness in the romantic comedy genre with Socha Na Tha.
