Main aur Mrs Khanna - Review

If you are entering the cinema halls with the hope of catching a romantic comedy, you are WRONG.
If you are entering the cinema halls to watch Salman Khan for 2 hours, you are WRONG.
The posters plastered of MAMK all over the city with Salman & Kareena are quite misleading; as this movie is as much of a Sohail Khan movie (if not more), as it is a Salman; which is utterly disappointing.

Set in Melbourne, MAMK is the tale of Raina (Kareena Kapoor), who is married to Samir Khanna (Salman Khan). Their marriage develops cracks due to Samir being unsuccessful in his career & for their future, he decides to move to Singapore and make his life.
Raina on the other hand chooses to remain in Melbourne & take a job rather than going back to India & here she meets Akash (Sohail Khan). Akash loves her & she takes him as a great friend. He helps her in all her needs & things take a sudden twist when Samir returns (albeit successful in no time) to take back Raina.

Writer/Director Prem Soni has attempted to write a nice simple romantic movie but to no avail. He fails miserably. The story & screenplay has no highs & lows, except for the last 15 minutes, which are actually the most entertaining.
There are times in the fast half when one wonders if they would be able to endure the full length of this film. The songs are hit-n-miss with a couple of nice tunes & one decent item number.

Of the performances, this is a Kareena Kapoor film. She looks great for most of it & does her role full justice.
Post Wanted, one expected Salman to tower over the film, rather than share space with Sohail Khan. He plays the intense husband well, but his role is not worth his star power.
Sohail Khan, the Main in MAMK is patchy. He gets a plum role & does his bit but still fails to impress. One doesn't see him playing the leading man with Salman in the film.
Preity Zinta looks fabulous in her cameo & so does Deepika. Yash Tonk is a little over-the-top & Dino Morea non-existent.

At the box office, the marketing muscle of Blue & All the Best will hurt MAMK & with a bad product, one doesn't see this movie going far.
All in all, MAMK is a utterly disappointing fare, especially post Wanted. Misleading viewers to believe it's an out and out Salman film, doesn't help the cause. I would strongly suggest everyone to avoid this.

Critical: 1.5/5
Commercial: 2.5/5
