Story
Bobby
happens to be 30 year old, who qualifies as pretty much a burden on her
family simply due to fact that she has chosen for herself an
exceptional career. Bobby is a private detective who is neither
qualified nor trained to be one.
Subsequent to being avoided
deliberately by all, she takes a decision on opening her own firm. She
is pretty much a flop at it till one day a rich man gives her big bucks
to solve a case. It seems that Bobby gets tempted by money into a path
of wicked action. Now, the point is whether Bobby would be able to clear
her consciousness off it and justify it all in the right manner. This
is what makes the movie mysterious!
Analysis :
The
idea itself seemed straight out of McCall Smith’s detective series but
wasn’t even remotely close to it in terms of flavor. To give Sanyukta
Shaikh full credit, she keeps her story bubbly and original. Throughout
the first half, it was completely involving narrative. It was a smartly
trimmed tapestry of fun and mystery in equal measures. The pace was just
about right and till interval the film seeps you in with terrific
energy. But with the second half wrapping up into a complicated climax,
the energetic look begins to fade away with the nimbleness of the story
wearing out.
Having it as a reconsideration, it was getting
sure the blame of it goes to the film’s cracked storyline. The statement
won’t be incorrect if we say that the movie tries too much at one shot.
If the focus remained on keeping intact the thrill, adding dashes of a
refreshing romance, the film could have been far better.
The
nuances of the script though which renders to its lead actress a great
deal of power was lovable. The film opens with a couple making out and a
maulvi clicking them while they are at it. The misrepresentations are
perfectly toned and gives the story the rightful pitch that was expected
of it. For a film of this vigor, the climax doesn’t do it any justice.
It wasn’t unanticipated or out of the blue. Even though the lit up face
of Vidya after finally establishing her bravery as a Jasoos makes it
seem a little better, the problem lies alone with the way the mystery of
the movie is wound up. It is done too easily, it is not unexpected and
it is tad bit melodramatic for my taste. The reason of blaming it could
be just my expectation.
Yet it would be going too far with it,
to be more precise the film completely falls below my expectations. At
one department, it was absolutely astonishing. The romantic track was
quite par excellence. From that one scene in a dingy alley outside
Tassavur’s house to the scene where Tassavur describes Bobby’s qualities
to his father only to realize how similar Bobby is to the imagination
he has of a perfect girl in his mind, are all perfect ones. As well as
the non conclusive ending is a winner for me always. More than the
disguises or Vidya, quite weird the love and warmth of Bobby’s chemistry
with Tassavur worked!
Performance :
Vidya
Balan is brilliant in her spirited performance. She revels in her role
brilliantly and though some might presume that this is Kahaani Part 2,
the contents of this is not even on the same plane as the Sujoy Ghosh
marvel. Fiesty, fiery, fearsome and firm, she brings alive the character
brilliantly on screen probably even elucidating it beyond its sketched
contours. She is at her unquestionably charming best but the story
doesn’t live up to her caliber.
Ali Fazal is another
revelation. I guess he has hardly ever grabbed for himself an eye
grabbing part but in this film despite a very overshadowing presence of
Balan, the guy shines. He could have been used more but in an out and
out woman centric film, his role gets ample bandwidth and Fazal uses it
well.
Rajendra Gupta plays the stereotype without improvising
his charcater at all. Surpriya Pathak isn’t anything like her Ramleela
pinnacle. She has again settled for ordinary role and seems content with
them. Tanvi Azmi gone meaningless in the film and so is Zarina Wahab.
Kiran
Kumar is not sensational either. He doesn’t achieve something
extraordinary with his role but is just passably good at what he does.
Arjan
Bajwa is noticeable but his character lacks the required steady stay
throughout the film. The association with the climax was pretty
predictable and the needful mystery element doesn’t quite fit the bill.
Final Word: Bobby Jasoos Review
could have been a crisp, lucid and marvelous film but the extremely
exciting emotional factor got the better out of the story. Plagued by an
underwhelming second hour, sloppy editing and a conveniently done
hurried climax, the film counts well only for Vidya’s ability to carry a
film solely on her shoulders. Vidya's fancied cute chemistry wit Ali
scores too. I would like to go with a 3.5 star for Bobby Jasoos.
