Director
Barnali
Ray
Shukla
has
come
up
with
a
cool
storyline
about
a
married
couple
with
diverse
personalities.
It
started
off
with
some
good
scenes
that
gave
impression
of
leading
into
something
exciting
but
the
director
failed
to
deliver
the
goods
as
the
film
progresses.
The
film
opens
with
a
song
which
aptly
captures
the
diminishing
chemistry
of
a
married
couple,
over
the
years,
in
a
swift
transition
mode.
How
one
wishes
debutante
director
Barnali
Ray
Shukla
could
show
the
same
alacrity
throughout
the
film,
which
sadly
turns
into
a
lethargic
lesson
into
nothingness.
Madhu
Saxena
(Shifaali
Shah)
is
married
but
the
love
life
with
her
husband
starts
dying
down
as
time
passes
by.
Her
husband
(Sumit
Raghavan),
who
has
been
taking
her
for
granted,
happens
to
forget
her
birthday
(February
29),
which
comes
only
once
in
four
years.
She
is
left
disappointed.
Then
she
meets
Raghav
(Rahul
Bose),
a
criminal
on
the
run.
She
mistakes
him
for
a
detective
and
decides
to
celebrate
her
birthday
with
him.
They
turn
really
close
since
then,
but
life
changes
as
truth
starts
unraveling
bit
by
bit.
The
rest
of
the
story
is
on
how
they
come
to
terms
with
truth.
One
will
certainly
expect
some
exciting
turn
of
events
from
this
contrasting
couple
but
the
poor
script
and
direction
spoiled
it
all.
The
film
turned
stagnant
after
a
certain
point
and
the
silly
twist
and
fake
pursuit
test
one"s
patience.
Lead
actors
also
end
up
with
unimpressive
performances
–
blame
it
on
poor
script.
Shifaali
is
no
doubt
a
good
actor
but
she
is
not
convincing
this
time.
Rahul
Bose
doesn"t
look
comfortable
in
a
gangster
role.
Sumit
Raghavan
has
done
his
part
well
but
he
has
not
much
scope
in
the
film.
Neetu
Chandra
too
is
not
impressive.
On
the
whole,
Kucch
Luv
Jaisaa
turns
out
to
be
dull
and
a
boring
film.
