The problem with JKLS is that it ties not only the audience but also the actors of the film in a tight knot of which neither the plot nor performances, except Oberoi’s, help to break out of.

Widely talked about as Rani Mukerji’s comeback film, Aiyyaa, in one word is director Sachin Kundalkar’s fantasy. The director is so self-absorbed and self-obsessed that it seems the film was not made for audiences but to satisfy his own creative urges. Aiyyaa is a make-believe world where characters are as contrived as they could be.
