Janasheen

By: Somesh Vasishth

It took years to Ram Gopal Verma before he could make a serious actor out of Fardeen but with Janasheen, Feroze Khan sends all his efforts down the drain.

If sun, sand and skin were all it took for the success, 'Baywatch' would have been the most famous series of all times on this planet. But it's not and Jansheen's fate isn't much different in the long run either.

Janasheen pushes Fardeen back by years, when he plays Lucky Kapoor, a guy who is passionate about motorbike racing and angry with his father, Virender Kapoor (Harsh Chayya), because he was amassing wealth when his wife was dying in Australia.

Archana Puran Singh is Aunt Martha, young and sexy but more of a mother to Lucky.

And how can one forget suave, kohl-eyed Saba Karim (Feroz Khan), a fugitive from Afghanistan and a kingpin of the underworld.

He sees his dead son in Lucky. But things take a wild turn when, unaware of the facts, he has Lucky's father killed in order to acquire a prime property.

'Janasheen' is the place to be, if you want to have a glimpse of the best beachwear available in town. And who's better to fluant it than Celina herself. It's not that you see her only in a bikini. She does wear an evening gown once in a while, when she is fiddling with her violin.

Why she is not acting, your guess is as good as mine. If Mr. Khan was looking for another Zeenie Baby in her, then I'm sorry to tell, he fails miserably.

The 'skin fest' doesn't stop here. We have a newcomer Pinky Hirani in the skimpy outfits and ably giving run for the money to the veteran Kashmira Shah.

Please don't go away as yet, we have to go through the performances too. The junior needs to avoid the FK banner for a while, in case he wants a better career. The editing and direction by Feroz Khan is 'ahead of its time'.
