Tand#150;Series and Himesh Reshammiya are going all out to ensure that their film takes one of the biggest openings of 2008. They would shortly be unveiling their theatrical promo of KARZZZZ along with the release of KIDNAP. This writer had an exclusive dekko at the 3 minute long promo and the only way to describe it's after effect is and#150; 'KARZZZZ is surely going to be one sure fire box office success'.Himesh doesn't just prove that he has grown leaps and bounds as an actor; he also shows his prowess as someone who just in his second film as an actor has done well enough to grasp the grammar of what is expected from a commercial hero. Some of the notable sequences highlighted in the promo are:
and#150; Himesh's confrontation with Urmila where he challenges her on killing him in his previous birth
and#150; Flashback shots that are interspersed brilliantly along with the current day sequences
and#150; Himesh's emotional scene with his mother from the previous birth (played by Rohini Hattangadi)
and#150; Background music centered on the remixed theme tune of 'Ek Haseena Thi' is a killer as it keeps the tension high throughout those 3 minutes
and#150; Striking visuals captured by director Satish Kaushik who not just keeps the dramatic portions intact but also showcases the outdoor locations of Johannesburg
and#150; Last but not the least Himesh's angst around Kamini (Urmila) who just romanced and then married him, only to kill him later
Surprise element of the promo truly is Himesh Reshammiya as it clearly acts as his show reel. For those who thought that AAP KAA SURROOR and#150; THE MOVIEE was a fluke; they just need to have one look at the promo of Himesh which shows him in a different light altogether. If the actor/composer/singer was more subdued in AAP KAA SURROOR, he is sheer dynamite in KARZZZZ where he gives a serious account of himself, especially in the dramatic portions.
