Rakesh Roshan is known for directing super successful films like Karan Arjun, Kaho Naa Pyar Hai, Koi Mil Gaya & Krrish. Krrish3 is a continuation of Krrish & Koi Mil Gaya. Both films were super successful at the box office and started the superhero science fiction trend in Bollywood.

Krrish3 is the first Hrithik Roshan film of 2013. His last film Agneepath released about 20 months back. Krrish stars Hrithik Roshan(in double role) Priyanka Chopra, Kangna Ranaut & Vivek Oberoi. Expectations are high from this Solo Diwali release.

STORY

Krrish 3 is the story of Dr. Rohit Mehra and his superhero son Krrish (both roles played by Hrithik Roshan). After defeating the villainous Dr. Siddhant Arya, and bringing his father Rohit back from the dead, Krrish continued fighting against evil and saving innocent lives. Now Krishna is living a happily married life with Priya (Priyanka Chopra) while Rohit is using his scientific brilliance to benefit society. And Krrish is everyone's favorite superhero saviour. Unknown to them, a dark force is growing in another part of the world. Kaal, an evil genius played by Vivek Oberoi is selfishly misusing his powers to spread fear, death and destruction. And he is being assisted by an army of very dangerous beings, which he has created himself. Not long after Kaal's plans are put into action, both Rohit and Krrish find themselves faced with a crisis of epic proportions, which only they can resolve, together. But when they finally cross paths with Kaal and his army, neither of them is prepared for what lies ahead. Kaal not only brings the world to the brink of disaster, he also puts the strength and love of Krishna and his family to the test.

Let me start with the positives of the film.

Positives

Krrish 3 is Rakes Roshan's film all the way. His direction was top class and the film lives up to the international standards and is a technical marvel. Hats off to Rakesh Roshan for actually pulling off this risky film with loads of entertainment & top scenes. Without a doubt Krrish 3 one of the best works of the maverick Rakesh Roshan so far.

Hrithik Roshan's acting is good as Krishna, excellent as Krrish & outstanding as the old Dr.Rohit Mehra. Hrithik seems born to play this role and he enacts it with great confidence that it leaves you asking for more. In fact, you can't imagine any other actor enacting the role of a super hero with such precision. All in all A Hrithik Roshan entertainer.

Another positive of the film is Vivek Oberoi in a never seen before Avatar. He is extra ordinary as Kaal. His role was limited in the first half, but he was rocking in the second half, almost par screen presence with Hrithik. From a comedy role in Grand Masti to a super villian in Krrish 3. 2013 is already a lucky year for Vivek Oberoi.

Kangana Ranut evolves into a different person in Krrish 3. Her make up, her styling & above all her performance is outstanding. Priyanka Chopra is good. However her role is limited, especially in the second half.

But the real strength of the movie is VFX, special effects, action scenes & look of the movies and characters, surely catches your eyes. The over all make up and costumes is very imaginative. Cinematography by S.Tirru matches international standard. There are many scenes that will definetely impress young kids.

Negatives

The music is a huge let down. Rakesh Roshan films are always famous for great music by his brother Rajesh Roshan. Don't know what happend to him this time. A festival release without a hit music is disappointing. Only saving grace is to see Hrithik Roshan's amazing dances in the songs. Placement of the songs are totally wrong.

The romantic angle between Kangana and Hrithik, hard to digest. Also the song Dil Tu Hi Bataa (Excellent locations of Jordan) was not needed. Also no logic to see 'pregnant Priyanka Chopra's dance in Raghupati Raghav & God Allah Aur Bhagwaan song.?

Dialogues are very poor. Rajpal yadav is wasted. Second half is dragging and climax could have been much better.

On the whole, Krrish 3 is a good entertainer with an excellent first half & an average second half with Hrithik's acting and VFX- special effects as pluspoints. At the box office film is all set to open huge (solo Diwali release) with 4000+ screens all over India. An opening day of 25-28cr with a 65-68crore weekend will be bountiful for the makers. But the big question is will it mark the 200 crore mark? Will it cross the Chennai Express record of 208 crore? Unlikely for me! Nevertheless A Diwali Blockbuster!

P:S: This Krrish will win your hearts!!!

Verdict - A Diwali Blockbuster

Rating - 3.5/5! Great Entertainer!!!

Box Office Precition - 175cr
