Kucch To Hai
Cast Tusshar Kapoor, Esha Deol, Natasha, Jeetedra and Rishi Kapoor
Director Anil V.Kumar
Genre Suspense
Year 2003
Karan (Tusshar), Tanya (Esha Deol), Tashu (Natasha), Yash (Yash Tonk), Pat (Vrijesh
Hirjee), Khush (Ashay Chitre) and Dolly (Kusumati Sana) form the carefree gang
of college friends in Shimla all out to have fun. Lurking behind their
unadulterated fun and games is a deadly psychopath who stalks them with a
vengeance.
An innocent attempt at saving one of their friends from what seems to them a
serious offence drags them into a pitfall, the consequences of which hound them
even after three years of their leaving college. A spate of murders convolutes
the identity of the killer and they find it even more baffling as to who would
want to exterminate them.
A whodunit that doesn’t let the track change to any parallel subplots or mushy
melodramatic sobs, KTH isn’t without its drawbacks though. While the original I
Know What You Did Last Summer, on which it is loosely based, or other such
teenage murder mysteries, are scripted with utmost care not to sound
implausible, KTH at times tends to be less believable with an improbable twist
or a turn.
But Tusshar, Esha, Natasha and Yash (who are familiar faces on the telly with
regular appearances in numerous Balaji Telefilms’ daily serials on air) acquit
themselves very well in roles they did not have to do a lot of homework for. The
story and screenplay writer Rajiv Jhaveri and the two directors, Anil V Kumar
and Anurag Basu, also deserve credit for delivering an entertaining film without
the frills.
