The
most ‘Wanted’ Khan
is back in theatres with his
new offering 'Main aur Mrs.Khanna',
a romantic drama with his brother
Sohail Khan and Kareena Kapoor.
Directed by Prem R.Soni a debutant
director, the movie takes the
age old 'Pati Patni aur Woh'
story and sets it up in an airport.
But to tell the same old story
you need to have an emotional
connect with any one of the
lead characters and the movie
fails to impress because our
heart doesn't go for the Patni,
neither does it go for the pati
nor woh.
The movie is about Mr and Mrs
Khanna, their life, their love
and their separation. Salman
falls in love with Kareena and
marries her and takes her to
Melbourne. Due to some bad decisions
he loses his job and is unable
to find a new one. His work
affects his personal life too.
Salman asks Kareena to go back
to India while he goes to Singapore
but Kareena stays back without
Salman's approval. In the airport,
Kareena meets Sohail and they
become good friends. Sohail
secretly loves Kareena too.
But Kareena is still mad about
Salman Khan. Will Salman return?
Will Sohail's love succeed?
Catch it in a theatre near you.

The biggest drawback of Main aur Mrs. Khanna
is that the emotional conflict between the
three is lacking. Prem R. Soni just misses
it and tries to build around a story which
is foundation-less. The scenes where Salman
tries to woo Kareena are well crafted but
once we come back to the present the proceedings
get rather unrealistic. And the climax which
could have changed the fate of the movie
ends without the surprise element and the
'Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa' kind of end doesn't
help either.
Technically the movie is not up to the mark
with average camera work. Editing needs
to be sharper. And the worst is the background
score which leaves you to wonder if it has
been done by a 12 year old. Music by Sajid-Wajid
is tuneful. 'Don't Say Alvida' and 'Rabba'
are the pick of the lot.
Kareena is the back bone of the movie and
she has given a glorious performance. Salman
Khan and Sohail also impress, but just the
performances of the lead cast cannot drive
home a movie, can it? Others in the cast
give their best shot too.
Overall decent acting and good music fail
to save this movie which has a thin story,
poor screenplay and an over the top background
score. A big failure for Sohail once again.
Verdict:
Please say Alvida Mr and Mrs Khanna
