If someone comes to me, saying that he only has money to watch one movie this weekend, what should he watch: Phantom or Kaun Kitne Paani Mein; then I will confidently ask him to go for Kaun Kitne Paani Mein without any hesitation.
Its a well scripted, satirical commentary on the contemporary social evils, and in a way the movie projects a solid message for the public as well as the Government as to how the evils can be handled.
Set across the backdrop of Odisha, with rich flavors of the region including the music, dialogues, costume and life-style, KKPM will enchant you, upset you and make you feel good by the time the movie finishes.
Water is the catalyst here, as it provokes, incites and carries forward the story. Basically, this movie is all about the choices our leaders make, and how it impacts the general people. Water is just a symbol of the problems and issues which we face, and how it can be handled.
Saurabh Shukla steals the show with his awesome performance of playing a King whose wealth has been dwindled away; and is now seeking desperate measures to bring back the good ol' days. His village has no water, and no one willing to buy the land.
I will say his acting in this movie is one of those path-breaking, high quality stuff which cinema lovers crave for. On the other hand, Gulshan Grover plays the democratically elected leader of another village which is rich, powerful and full of water.
Radhika Apte has truly arrived with this movie; she makes you laugh, cry and captures the screen every time she is given a chance. Her acting prowess and a level of strange acting maturity level makes KKPM a treat to watch. Kunal Kapoor aptly supports her, but he is simply overshadowed by Radhika in the movie.
Witty, humorous dialogues, well edited screenplay and completely hilarious situations make KKPN an epic social saga of 2015, on par with the logic of Well Done Abba.
You shouldn't miss this.
