WOODSTOCK VILLA

DESERVED A BETTER DEAL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOODSTALK VILLA,came and went,unseen,unsung and may be even unheard!
But it wasn't that bad,and deserved a better deal!!

A murder mystery,revolving around the present day trends of extramarital affair,murder,plotting and double crossing!
Arbaz Khan has an extramarital affair with a girl,who is a look alike of his wife,and finally murders his wife.To cover up the murder,his girlfriend replaces his wife in public,and approaches the Hero,played by Sikendar Kher,to kidnap her to extract a ransom from her so called husband.She is held hostage in the Woodstalk Villa,and while the hero is busy extracting the money,she elopes with the help of Arbaz Khan,leaving behind the deadbody of the killed wife.She falls in love with Sikandar and they plan to ditch Arbaz,and manage to run with the money,leaving Arbaz with the dead wife!
If you are confused,wait ,the story doesn't end now,The girl decides to dump Sikandar too and run away with the money,but is double crossed by Sikandar who has the last laugh,and the moolah and succeeds to leave India back to his mother,with the lakshmi!

Though nothing new or great,but still,the story and the plot maintained the pace of the movie and kept one guessing,of the next twist.The music and songs were tolerable and acting satisfactory,Arbaz has acted well,in his role,as he always does,and made me wonder ,as always ,that why he hasn't done better in his career.
Sikandar Khan has looked a junky,and could have chosen a better role,specially being the son of such talented parents as Anupan and Kiran Kher,for a debut!
Being a low budget movie from a small banner with no big star cast ,the movie went unnoticed though it was better than many such movies of these days like Naqab,Jannat etc

Well.if you have nothing better to do,then you can watch it at home,with a glass of Bacardi Breezer!
