Prabhu Deva, Tamannah, Sonu Soods film Abhinetri has released today in al the 3 langauges and it is getting a hit talk it is reported. ‘Abhinetri’ has a simple enough storyline that starts off with a flashback showing Krishna (Prabhu) working with a Mumbai corporate. His ambition is to marry an English speaking westernized girl as he feels that it would give him a higher social standing given his village background.
He gets married to Devi (Tamannah) while on a visit to his village due to family pressures. He makes all attempts to hide his marriage when he returns to Mumbai with Devi and this includes moving into an old apartment and trying to convince Devi to go back to the village. Things change hugely once Krishna and Devi settle into the apartment with Devi behaving like a different person altogether.
Later she attracts the attention of Raj (Sonu Sood), a huge film star, who signs her up for his next film. In parallel, Krishna figures out that Ruby, the previous occupant of the apartment had committed suicide and has now possessed Devi.
Balancing comedy and horror is not easy and this balance is achieved by a certain amount of success in Abhinetri. It’s good to see Prabhu Deva back on screen as the helpless husband who keeps negotiating with a stubborn ghost who has possessed his wife while trying to keep Sonu from falling in love with her.
Tamannah does full justice to her role. Saptagiri plays out his comic act well as Prabhu’s friend and he gets the maximum laughs from the audience.
Production values of the film are pretty good and showcase the film in a rich light. As expected for a film starring Prabhu Deva, the choreography is great.
Prabhu rocks it in the Chill Maar song which has guest appearances by Amy Jackson & Raju Sundaram. Watch and enjoy the comedy.
