Review:
A Watchable Romance and Thriller movie!!!!!!!!!.
Yakeen was a romance and thriller.
I absolutely loved it because Arjun Rampal and Priyanka Chopra made an awesome and hot couple on-screen.More than just a handsome face, the lead star of "Yakeen", Arjun Rampal, has always been a very versatile actor.
He played the obsessed man in "Moksha", a blind thief in "Aakhen", a manipulative con man in "Pyaar, Ishq Aur Mohabbat" and had amazing comedic timing in "Tehzeeb".
He has also proved that he could play the rough-cut action hero in movies like "Elaan" and "Asambhav" and could be the pretty boy toy as well in movies like "Dil Hai Tumhara" and "Dil Ka Rishta".In "Yakeen", Arjun proves exactly why he's one of the most talented actors to come out of Bollywood in recent times.
His character, Nikhil, is one of many shades; an obsessed lover who wishes to destroy the man who touches his wife, a lost man desperately trying to piece his life together, a bad-ass husband who doesn't give a damn about anything but his business and an angry individual who believes the whole world is against him.
It shows an amazing scope of Arjun's capability and Arjun played each layer of his character to perfection.The best part about "Yakeen" is that the story kept an even, interesting pace throughout.
There are so many twists in the movie that you'll be caught by surprise again and again throughout.
Kudos to the filmmakers because even with all the twists, the audience are still able to keep up with the story  something that a lot of other Bollywood thrillers fail to do.
All loose ends are neatly tied up and the audience won't leave the cinema wondering what the hell happened.
(Of course, Hindi moviegoers will also know enough to leave logic at the door when watching.) Not to say that "Yakeen" is without fault though.
No. Characters could have been developed better (like Kim Sharma's character for example) and the music score leaves much to be desired (Is it just me or is Sameer, the lyric writer, losing his touch these days?).
In all fairness, "Yakeen" isn't SO mind blowing that you'll leave the cinema awe-struck.
But what it IS, is a solid piece of storytelling that deserves a watch..
A watchable movie.
Yakeen was a really good movie made, it had the tension, suspense and thrilling aspect to any movie but climax of the film was made too obvious.
It was like you knew what the suspense was.
A bit of a let down but Priyanka copra and Arjun Rampal look good on screen together again.
The songs were good, very well picturised.
however one can say that after Aitraaz, Priyanka chopra is doing movies that are different but not really successful.
I guess its all about loving and losing someone.
The performances were good, story was a bit weak but very well made overall.
It is worth a watch on DVD and well done to the two leading stars for making a good movie..
What a mystery !!.
Yakeen begins with an accident.
Arjun Rampal plays a business tycoon Nikhil, and Priyanka Chopra plays his wife Simar.
The husband and wife meet with an accident after their car falls off a cliff.
While Simar comes out of the accident with minor injuries, Nikhil is hospitalized.
He loses his memory.I saw Arjun Rampal's movie after a few years, and i gotta admit..
his acting is way better than how he was before, i think the acting was Real good from all the actors in this movie.
Whoever wrote this movie..did a great job, i just couldn't wait to see who was behind this whole mystery that Nikhil was trying to solve.
I kept creaming....
(you'll be surprised in the end) I recommend this if you wanna see a Indian mystery/suspense movie.
But i think that the ending should have been a LOT more dramatic.
Could Have Been Better With Sudhanshu's Own Awesome Baritone Voice.
Yakeen is About a Handsome Charming Funloving Hotel Club Singer Kabir Malhotra (Sudhanshu Pandey) Who Looses His Own Face, Memory & Identity in a Fatal Car Accident & Now is Forced To Live The Life Of An Other Man Nikhil Oberoi (Arjun Rampal), As Kabir Has Memory Loss Too So Now Kabir's Face & His Identity Is Forcibly Turned Into Nikhil By The Evil Simar (Priyanka Chopra) Who Destroyed Kabir's Identity For Her Own Financial & Obsessional Benifits, So Now Nikhil (Originally Kabir) Will Be Able To Find Out His Original Identity After Getting Shattered By The Dirty Minded Simar?..
Yakeen is a Very Good Suspense Crime Thriller With Beautiful Songs (Especially Chehra Tera Is The Best Mindblowing Number Of The Film), As Of The Performances..Priyanka Chopra is Nice as The Menacing Vampish Culprit, Arjun Rampal is Good & Gives a Sincere Performance, But The Real Soul Of The Movie Is The Handsome Charming Ravishing Gorgeous Sudhanshu Pandey Who Delivers The Superb First-Rate Best Performance Than Them All Handling His Part With Efficacy..
At The End Of The Note..I Wanna Give My Important Verdict To Yakeen..Is That Why The Hell They Put Arjun Rampal's Voice On Sudhanshu Pandey, Sudhanshu's Real Own Voice Is Thousand Times Better Than Arjun's Voice, Sudhanshu's Own Voice Is Very Awesome Enchanting Honey Sweet Sharp High Clear Open & Velvety Baritone (Sudhanshu Is a Singer Also Of A Band Of Boys) & As About Arjun..
Arjun's Voice Is Yet Husky But Very Low Pitched & Unclear, One Should Never Replace A Superior Voice With An Inferior Voice & I Must Say That Sudhanshu's Own Voice Is Much Superior Than Arjun's Voice & i Was Missing Sudhanshu's Voice Throughout The Film :( :'( , My Final Verdict: Yakeen Would be A Much More Enjoyble Treat If It Would Have Sudhanshu Pandey's Own Superb Enchanting Crystal Clear Baritone Honey Golden Velvet Voice Instead Of Using That Arjun Rampal's Unclear Husky Boring Voice On Him. a decent whodunit.
Timepass.
Yakeen is good for 2 hrs of that and nothing else.
Esp if you (like me) are tired of all the 'new-age', 'different Hindi movies like Bluffmaster etc., and just want a break.
This is an old-style whodunit that works even though the suspense is pretty obvious, because the motives are unclear till the end, and twists and turns are put in at the right intervals.The story starts on a hospital bed, where Nikhil (Arjun Rampal) is having reconstructive facial surgery after having survived a horrible accident.
Surgery is successful, with one catch: he cannot remember anything about his past except a nightmarish glimpse of his car crashing into a cliff.
He finds out that he's a successful architect with an awesome bungalow and a loving wife Simar (Priyanka).
On the surface, everything seems to be rosy.
But something about his unresolved past keeps gnawing at him.
Will he be able to resolve his amnesia?
What will be the result?
That's basically what Yakeen is all about.Stories like this have been attempted before in Hindi cinema, albeit sporadically.
So most of the content remains somewhat predictable, at least until the last 20 minutes.
Performances are good all around.
Arjun Rampal has got a great voice and he uses it to good effect.
This is one actor that seems to have all the right tools, but somehow that star appeal is missing.
Priyanka looks sexy and acts reasonably well, although (spoiler) toward the end her role gets to be somewhat of a repeat of Aitraaz.
Sudhanshu Pandey is likable in his brief appearance, as is the dependable Saurabh Shukla.
Girish Dhamija's direction is tight, and the dialogues are out of real life.This is one of Himesh's pre Aashiq Banaya Aapne albums, which is a good thing, as the soundtrack is melody focused, with a plethora of soothing romantic tunes, among which 'Meri Aakho mein' and Bhoolna Nahi stand out.
All in all, watch this on DVD with low expectations, and you'll be entertained..
Awesome suspense drama!.
Arjun Rampal and Priyanka Chopra sizzle in this suspense thriller about a man who can't understand the very essence of himself following a nearly fatal accident.
Upon returning home with his wife played by Chopra to recuperate, he (Rampal) finds himself lashing out at odd occurrences, not recognizing other people or himself and more shockingly, he stumbles upon lewd pictures of his having an affair.
With this, he gets in over his head that there is a case to be solved and so he enlist a private detective as well as the help of his best-friend (played by Kim Sharma) to try and get to the bottom of things.
The whole story begins to unravel when he catches his wife impersonating a man who is supposed to be dead and when his best-friend turns up dead, he suspects foul play and the plot intensifies leading to a very shockingly unbelievable ending!
Unbelievable in the sense that you wouldn't believe that a woman could go that far to prove her so-called love, or cover up her crime!.
A good film...worth watching.
Yakeen is a short but thrilling film that is definitely worth a watch.Story is about a accident-recovering amnesic man who tries to piece things together to know about his life, but soon realizes that people are not what they seem, and must go further to find skeletons in the closet.The storyline is good, acting is good on part of all actors, music is melodious, cinematography is good, locales of Shimla are breathtaking,the film is not draggy but quite fast, with a mixture of music and melodrama in between.
The film also depicts the consequences of extra marital affairs.The bad is some stuff in some of the songs, that was unnecessary, but that's not too bad.
Also there are a few unexplained things and flaws in the film.All in all, worth a watch..
This film is not plaigarized.
The film was a well-made and well-acted film noir - very good editing and cinematography, competently subtitled, well acted and directed, and extremely well-paced for s suspense thriller - as long as one forwards all the songs.+++SPOILER ALERT+++ Screenplay writer Vikram Bhatt did not lift the script from the early 90's film "Shattered" - it just coincidentally turned out to be a scene to scene duplicate.
Bhatt went back in time and wrote the script before the writer of Shattered wrote his version.
Nobody to date has noticed or claimed that the script was plaigarized - because it was not.
Bhatt is an original writer and this film is not plaigarized.
There was no such film as Shattered.
