Teesri Aankh – Review

It is advisable to rest your thinking and reasoning faculties while watching Harry Baweja’s movie Teesri Aankh .

Despite a relatively fresh theme of the story of ‘Teesri Aankh’ (although we saw a similar theme a few months back in Kalyug ), the movie turns out to be a crappy collage of clichés. The story develops through illogical turns, the songs are ill placed and the action is ridiculously unbelievable.

The movie stars Sunny Deol , Amisha Patel , Neha Dhupia , Mukesh Rishi , Mukesh Tiwari, Ayub Khan, Murli Sharma and Aarti Chhabria .

The film is about people who use modern technology to covertly make pornographic films and pictures of women. It is also about those who are victimized and those who vow revenge.

ACP Arjun Singh (Sunny Deol) is cracking down on a pornographic racket run by Sudama Pandey (Mukesh Rishi) from London.

On the other hand, Sudama’s henchmen Dinesh (Mukesh Tiwari) and Dinesh (Murli Sharma) trap Arjun’s fiancé Sapna (Neha Dhupia) into their net.

Sapna wants to break free but is subsequently killed. Ammu (Amisha Patel), a mute girl, witnesses the murder and becomes the next target of the villains. Just in the nick of time, Ammu’s sister comes to her rescue.

In the meantime Sunny Deol, who is searching for a lead to bust the porn racket, miraculously discovers Ammu’s whereabouts. What happens thereafter is pretty predictable. Arjun Singh breathes fire, bays for the baddies’ blood and obviously emerges triumphant in the end.

Sunny Deol plays the obvious superhero who flexes muscles, breaks bones, takes on half-a-dozen baddies single-handedly, kicks cars out of his way and stops speeding bikes with his bare hands.
Amisha Patel wears a persecuted look. She seems to have mastered the art of looking cowered and frazzled. Even her sign-language part doesn’t look natural.

Neha Dhupia is adequate in the role written for her.

In a nutshell, ‘Teesri Aankh’ is not even a timepass entertainer. Harry Baweja’s direction is below par. The way he tells the story and develops the plot to the climax – with many a cinematic liberty – takes the thrill away.
