We follow Zooni to Delhi where she falls for Rehan (a mite too easily and conveniently especially as he comes across as a sleazy road side Romeo rather than a true charmer) and then suddenly towards the end of the first half out of nowhere the terrorist angle is brought in for the big twist in the interval.

Maybe the filmmakers themselves understood the film might have no repeat value and hence wanted to raise ticket prices to make as much money they can in the first week of its release.Ī faulty story and screenplay, laughingly archaic dialogues, an excruciatingly slow pace and never ending length of 3 hours all combine to make this film a ‘turkey.’ The story starts with us being introduced to blind girl Zooni (a cute sequence as other girls laugh as her as she is facing the other way while saluting the National flag) in Kashmir. The million dollar question – Kajol’s back, paired with Aamir Khan for the first time in a Yashraj film with a hit director! So, does the film live up to it’s hype? The answer is a loud and resounding NO! In fact, Fanaa, directed by Kunal Kohli, is a shockingly inept film that makes you wonder what attracted the actors to it in the first place.
