Jannat – No Paradise here

Arjun Dixit (Emraan Hashmi) wants to get rich. That simply put is the plot of Jannat. Starting out as a small time gambler who keeps losing at cards he goes onto become one of the biggest bookies in cricket. Zoya (Sonal Chauhan) plays the madly in love girlfriend who knows nothing about her beau’s real dealings and when she does come to know she decides to make him see the light by getting him framed and caught by the cops.

However, by then it’s too late as Arjun has made friends in the high places. Although arrested in South Africa he is bailed out by his boss – Abu Ibrahim. Abu is the biggest match fixer of the world and uses that money to fund the mafia and underworld. Once released Arjun sets out to find Zoya to find out why she turned him in. But when the two meet, Zoya helps Arjun understand that he needs to stay honest and quit the world of betting and match fixing. Madly in love with Zoya, Arjun gives the honest life a real chance. But that’s when he realizes he needs to work twice as hard for a paltry salary at the end of the month. Abu Ibrahim, who needs to earn some big bucks in the upcoming World Cup, doesn’t make it easy for Arjun either. He tempts him with a big palatial house and an obscene sum of money – all he wants in return is for Arjun to fix matches for him in the upcoming World Cup. Will Arjun fail his love once again or will he stay honest and find his jannat in the real world is what the film is all about.

As a debutant director Kunal Deshmukh has come up with a decent story line and concept. However, like many before him he has failed in execution. The first half of the movie seems like a romantic love story with most time devoted to showing the brewing romance between Arjun and Zoya. Hashmi is also a let down in the film – he almost comes across as uninterested and lazy in his acting. And the less said about Sonal Chauhan the better. Her serious scenes leave the viewer laughing. Right at the very end when she could have redeemed herself she leaves you even more flabbergasted – and not in a nice way!

Musically like most Bhatt films this one will score… but sadly that’s  but sadly that’s the only place it will find its Jannat!
