“Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha” Story
Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha, a love story of two star-crossed lovers, Krishna (Devgn) and Vasudha (Tabu), is told non-linear, like any other Pandey narrative. This time, instead of the usual engaging rollercoaster, it feels more like an endless merry-go-round. A merry-go-round that you want to end since you’re nauseated and cannot bear it any further.
It starts with a beautiful shot of two young lovers (younger versions of Krishna and Vasudha, played by Shantanu Maheshwari and Saiee Majrekar) sitting by the sea with the backdrop of Mumbai’s skyscrapers, lost in their whirlwind romance. From there, it meanders through the tangled web of their tragic relationship, ping-ponging between the past and present.
We are told that the timing and circumstances are wrong while they are in love. Krishna lands up in jail for 25 years for double murder and is unwilling to be released early due to his conduct. Why is he not willing to get an early release, what is he hiding behind those intense damp eyes, how has Vasudha’s life changed while Krishna was in jail, and most importantly, why did he land in jail, make for the wafer-thin plot of the movie,’ which swings wildly from dour to dull.
Comments
It is boring. It is slow. It’s not romantic. It’s not funny. And, It’s not sad. What is it? A 144-minute snoozefest. It gets weaker as it goes along, leading to some predictable plot developments.
Watching Tabu and Devgn together is like catching a glimpse of cinematic magic at work. Their chemistry is so effortless it’s no wonder they’ve teamed up for ten films, with Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha being the latest.
How has it Performed at the Box Office?
