****
Kangana is my female Amitabh Bachchan. Never has any actor owned the screen so much. She is confidence personified, actress par excellence. She has the gritty diligence of Aamir in taking ownership of a script and also actively contributing to it. So no wonder that the script writers get jitters when there is a glamour for credits to be shared with this brilliant actress. Her screen persona is luminscent. She dazzles in a striking combination of brilliant exposition of her art and exuding natural beauty.

Simran is hoisted on her slim looking but strong shoulders with the ease of Hanuman lifting the whole mountain in search of life saving sanjeevani. She is not sure what part of the bold script of an independent woman will work . Circumstances force an ordinary housekeeping employing at the Hilton to mix up with dangerous money lenders and start stealing all in an effort to chase her dreams and at the the same avoiding possible betrothal.

There is an effort to sketch out the characters of her parents , prospective husband and friends well but with an half hearted approach . A slight elevation of that effort with more punch in the dailogues mouthed by these side props of the story could have catapulted this movie to another league .

And yet despite its obvious story drag you can never take your eyes of the screen as she shares a camaraderie with a barman, an extremely natural selfish relationship with her parents and a truly believable romance that envelopes her and her prospective husband.

The story never lets you guess correctly and you clasp your slightly bored and sometimes slapping with happiness,  hands  together till the end
A very satisfying visit to the screen where you get the pleasure of watching the evolution of what is possibly the resurrection of fresh story telling and innovative acting by one of the best exponents of the art

Kangana way to go !
