Seriously, the movie is a real let down.. I guess the movie was made for the songs.. See no other reason y this should've been made.. The young director has lots of home work to do b4 he ventures into films again.. The BGMs r a real treat.. Especially the flute BGM which has a "Ghoomparaani" (of Netaji Bose) touch to it.. But sounded real great.. And the title credit soundtrack was great too.. Other than the BGM n the songs there's nothing else in the movie.. Sit there blinfolded n enjoy the sounds.. thts it..
