8 x 10 Tasveer is a really good movie and Akshey Kommar act very well in this movie but the movie floped and that what I heard but why? maybe it is flop because of producing part or in music part maybe in the direct part but the acting was good. the movie deserve to be hit because it was nice and I want to people to see this movie to decide about it and I think 85% that u will like this movie.after u see the movie u can put a comment to see r the people like it or not? |

really akshay is a loser ..... he wanted to be the king but ended up in his place at the bottom of the ladder .... he was doing well in welcome and then herapheri and all .....well he is good in comedy .. now he has begun to suck though..... but his attempt to do something else should be applauded but the thing is that the film has grossed a petty 5 crores in the first 4 days from the entire india after such hype over this created by box office gimmick master akshay..... anyways sorry boss but the results prove it after a super duper flop in chandni chowk to china besides his never ending series of flops previously except the khiladi ,herapheri,welcome,singh isking(which was super sucking but somehow did the trick like oso),heybaby i guess most of his films have seen the flop marks ..... anyways akshay chal koi baat nahi next time preparation karke ana .... we will definately watch u next time ... if it is atall tolerable and not nonsense mindless disasters like chandnichowk to china aur tasveer type and please donot follow aamir .... he is wayup from your range |

i think this is the most intrestng story i hv ever heard..the start and the finish was super according to me.the picture was comparing with gajhini,,but i personaly felt dat the theme and d acting of akshay is far better than amir{one of my fev}..akki has done a super job,,kukunoor this tym also proved that he always try 2 b unique...ayesha is very gud in her role..the twist at d end was mind blowing to me..i hadnt even think of that,.. usualy this type of pic is generly made in hollywood,,but nagesh is far better than many of them..he proved that....acording to me this is the best supernatural thriller, suspence, movie,,the cinematography was awsome..direction was gr8..cast perfornance was gr8..u ll not b bored while watching....paisa wusul...go and watch d muvi... |

http://dunkdaft.blogspot.com/2009/04/8x10-tasveer-movie-review.html
Director Nagesh Kukunoor this time, has shifted his focus from rather heart warming or light hearted films to one which leaves your heart beating faster. [well, somewhat]. A suspense thriller-a 'whodunnit movie' -a genre I always have fun watching. And ofcourse Nagesh is one of my favorite director who in past have made such gr8 movies like Dor, Iqbal, Rockford..just to name a few. So naturally expectations are there. But given this one is starred by Akshay kumar, and some past movies of Akshay which are not my piece of cake, I was on low profile for this movie. But surprisingly It fared well with me. And My first words after the movie were 'why the hell Akki doesn't do much roles like this?'
8x10 is a story about Jai [Akshay] who has this supernatural power to see through a picture and go into the past to find out what was happening around when the picture has been taken. One day his father Jatin [Benjamin Gilani] dies by heart attack, on a boat while partying with business partners [Girish Karnad, Anant Mahadevan, Rushad Rana] and wife Savitri [Sharmila Tagore]. While Jai thinks this is not a heart attack but his father has been murdered. Though he didn't believed in father's business having parted ways and living seperate, with live-in relationship with lovely Sheela [Aayesha Takia], still he goes on quest to..............

 Nagesh Kukunoor has entered a new realm with 8 x 10 Tasveer. Produced by Percept Picture Company, 8 x 10 Tasveer is a thriller that lives up to being a perfect example of its genre. 8 x 10 Tasveer is a story about Jai ( Akshay Kumar) who has the supernatural ability to delve into the past of anyone he chooses by entering their lives through a photograph. His powers are kept a secret and he works as a forest officer in Canada and is in a live-in relationship with girlfriend Sheela(Ayesha Takia). Jai’s father, Jatin(Benjamin Gilani) is the owner of a vast business empire that he created from scratch and is disappointed with his son for wanting to become an environmentalist and not willing to manage the company after him and this strains the relationship between father and son. Nevertheless, over a period of time he reconciles and decided to turn over his company to provide funds for his son’s venture. But before anything can happen, Jai’s father is involved in an ‘accident’ on a boat and dies leaving all his fortune to his wife Savitri(Sharmila Tagore). Happi(Javed Jaffrey) comes to investigate the accident as he believes it to be a murder. Happi and Jai together solve the crime using Jai’s supernatural ability and the suspense keeps you gripped to the edge of your seat. 
There are a few discrepancies in the script and it would be sacrilege to reveal the end or the identity of the killer, but the reasons that compel the murderer to commit crime after crime are unbelievable and far from convincing. The writer doesn't have convincing answers to offer and there are many gaps that remain wide open till the end. The scenes are picturesque and look right out of a postcard and the film has been shot stylishly in the breath-taking locales of Canada and South Africa. Akshay proves himself a brilliant actor and shows he can take up serious roles with as much ease as his other ‘masala’ filled roles. Sharmila Togore lives up to her name and all the other actors in the supporting roles, Jaaved Jaffrey, Girish Karnad, Benjamin Gilani, Ananth Mahadevan and Rushaad Rana have delivered to perfection. The movie had me completely caught up in it and was worth the time I spent watching it inspite of it having a few short-comings. A good timepass movie. Watch it if you have the time! |

18 by 7 Tasveer is an above average movie by Bollywood standards, but a disappointing salvo from Nagesh Kukunoor?s repertoire. This whodunnit-cum-supernatural flick tries earnestly to keep the audience on the edge, and at most places it succeeds. But sometimes the effort shows.
Jai Puri, a forest ranger, is led to investigate the loss of his father?s death. He possesses the supernatural powers of being able to enter the past through photographs, and is able to unearth his father?s murderers. He is slowly drawn into an intriguing saga of greed, lust and revenge. Finally, the killer turns out to be a completely different and unexpected person, invisible at the scene of crime.
The script and screenplay are fairly crisp and racy, but not clever. There are quite a number of surprises that are woven into the fabric of the movie, and sometimes, they come as pleasant adrenaline shots. However, towards the end, there are too many concessions to an Indian audience, so much so that the conclusion becomes almost predictable.
What mars the overall tautness and the feeling of freshness is the ageing and sagging persona of the hero, Akshay Kumar. Though he has essayed a fairly competent performance, his middle-aged looks look tired in what could have been a vibrant and youthful narration. Ayesh Takia is brilliant as the heroine. She is sharp and nuanced in her performance, with a face that is different, and a voice that makes you listen. The age difference between the leading pair seems too glaring. Sharmila Tagore is pleasant, and the rest of the cast is complementary.
The movie is well directed and edited, with some excellent screenplay shots. However, you expect more from Nagesh Kukunoor.
You can see the movie once, but don?t bother if you are not able to.

Shahid Kapur in Akshay-Takia's TASVEER By glamsham Saturday Sep 1 2:25 PM Abid, Bollywood Trade News Network Nagesh Kukunoor's next project after AASHAYEIN is getting bigger. The film in question, TASVEER, which already has Akshay Kumar and Ayesha Takia, now has a new star, Shahid Kapur. In fact, as per media reports, Shahid is presently shooting for the film in Canada. The super natural thriller is likely to be completed in one schedule (after Akshay starts his work) and that is why Akshay has been paid a huge fee for his bulk dates. While we are happy about Shahid being in the film, we just wonder why he has agreed to work with Akshay again. For those who are unaware, Shahid had allegedly accused Akshay of getting many of his scenes chopped off from Firoz Nadiadwala's DEEWAANE HUYE PAAGAL and had gone public saying that he will never work with him again. While on TASVEER, Akshay was to shoot for the movie from the first week of September, but as he is in the TASHAN get up and shooting for the movie, TASVEER will have to wait for now. |
