Kurbaan

Kareena Kapoor describes her role in this movie as one she could “sink her teeth into”. Whether it will earn her as much recognition as her other roles remains to be seen, however.

This time she plays a teacher who falls in love with a professor, played by a brooding Saif Ali Khan. However, all is not rainbows and joyful dancing… When the two relocate to New York they find themselves drawn into a series of horrific and terrifying events. More than this I will not tell you.

Due to the nature of the plot, the music is quite different and a refreshing change; reduced tempos and moody, haunting numbers act as an excellent complement without taking centre stage. Is the story unpredictable? Nah, but it’s still not a bad show from two of Bollywood’s finest.

Rating: 3 outta 5.
