Well, “The Ring Continues” defines that the Scenes of the Movie Raaz- The Mystery Continues are almost Carbon Copy OF the Hollywwod Horor Block Buster The Ring (Both parts) and some the storyline too has been adopted from the Movie. And Mind it. It is not the Sequel to the Earlier Raaz. But All in all the Movie stands out for more than one reason which are :
Story and Screenplay : The Story is largely inspired from the Ring but the Indianaized Version of the Story makes it believable for the So called believers of the subject. Otherwise the youngistan generation would find it hard to Grasp being the Supernatural Drama. But mind-blowing Screenplay of Shagufta Rafique helped the Subject give the thorough strength.
Direction : Mohit Suri , just 4 movie old before Raaz- The Mystery Continues , has, would you believe , done a remarkable job in handling such a Volatile Subjact Considering the fact the Horror Movies Don’t do well in India like it does in the Hollywood. And Goodness Gracious me, Mohit Portrays Emraan Hashmi like no one could. The Story looses grip in the Climax but Mohit’s Treatment has saved the Movie and made it rather convincing.
Cast and Performance : Emraan Hashmi steals the Show with Career boosting performance. No wonder when Mohit is directing, Emaraan makes it count like he did in Zeher and Aawarapan. His looks were also designed to match the subject and does the trick. Kangna, after Fashion , Gives yet another Power packed performance. This Girls surely has Talent. Adhyayan Suman(kid of well-known Celebrity Shekhar Suman) gives Convincing Performance so far as the debut Performance Gors . But the Movie Won’t Do much help to him as such since the Show was stolen completely by Kangna and Emraan. Jackie Shroff looks Okay as Emaraan Dad. But he is pathetic as the Ghost in the Movie.
Music : Now comes the Most Brilliant Part of the Movie. MUSIC. Which has rocked the Charts all over the World. Maahi , O Jaana, and banda re and kaisa yeh raaz hai are Supirior in terms of the Totality. And Soniyo by Sonu Nigam is just the feather on the head. Yes. Sonu Nigam is Sonu Nigam. Although I like the other version of the song Soniyo beter. Lyrics as usual by Sayeed Qadri unforgettable. Raju Singh the Music Director surely deserves Three Chers.
Technicals : Background Score in the Horor Flicks plays a huge part and Raju Singh made it authentic. Editing and Special Effects are of impressive Quality. Not much attention is diverted to the technicalities as the Vishesh Films(Mahesh Bhatt and Mukesh Bhatt’s Production house) leaves no room for error so far as the Technicalities are concerned.
Now, I would really love to excuse those Frame To Frame copied Scenes of the Ring in light of honest effort of making the movie so entertaining. 3.5 Stars all the way to the team of Raaz.
