Kahaani (2012) (Hindi Movie / Bollywood Film / Indian Cinema Dvd)

No subtitles
It says it has english subtitles, but it doesn't. It doesn't seem like it has subtitles for the Bengali parts either, so even if you speak Hindi, you're probably going to miss parts. For reference, I am watching though Eros now, so maybe different if you actually buy it individually.

Fine suspense story, beautifully acted, then SPOILED BY SHEMAROO'S LOGO/WATERMARK APPEARING PROMINENTLY ON EVERY FRAME
This is a most excellent film, for any country, any genre. It is engaging and suspenseful from start to finish, clever and very satisfying. All the actors did a beautiful job, especially the incredibly convincing Vidya Balan in the title role. Can't wait to watch it again soon, now that I know all the secrets. Unfortunately THE VIEWING EXPERIENCE IS BADLY MARRED by producer Shemaroo's logo/watermark APPEARING IN LARGE CAPITAL LETTERS ON EVERY FRAME OF THE FILM. This is very distracting and inappropriate. It is exactly like your company purchasing a Van Gogh painting and then painting your company logo on the face of it to shamelessly advertise yourself at the expense of the work of art. This film (like Queen--same problem) is fine art and Shemaroo has spoiled it. I complained to them at [email protected] and I urge you to do the same. Maybe if enough people complain they'll stop this inappropriate and unnecessary practice.

No subtitles with Eros Now on Prime Video
Got the Eros Now add-on to watch this on Prime Video- there's no English subtitles on that version. Buyer beware.

I Love Twisty Tales
We first see Kahaani at an airport where she catches a cab. The driver is surprised that she wants to go directly to the police station instead of a hotel. She wants the police to help her find her husband, who left London and was never heard from again. One policeman takes pity on her and helps when he is off duty.When she rents a derelict room, we watch it improve: it becomes cleaner, tidier, more livable. That cute little neighbor boy notices too. We see what a charmer Kahaani can be, every time someone is offended, she turns on the charm and immediately soothes hurt feelings.As she and that policeman gather information, we get the sense that they are closing in on an answer, but we also realize that there is a larger mystery here. One of the men the police interview tells them that he himself did the training so he is positive that they will never find the mysterious villain.We have at least three people to root for: the policeman, the woman looking for her husband, and that little boy.I obtained my DVD from Amazon after watching a copy from the library and falling in love with it.

Great Movie - No English Subtitles
I watched this film on another streaming service a while ago and was glad to see it hear on Amazon. Sadly, there are no English subtitles. The Eros Channel, or whatever it's called, needs to step up its game.

Kahaani 2 the story continues to be great !!
Vista Balan is back at it in Kahaani 2 . The story is fast paced drama like the first . I thouroughly enjoyed the movie . The storyline is different but you will see many familiar faces in the second chapter .

Suspence thrilling
Good movie. Vidya Sinha is very good actor. Many people complained that there are no subtitles. Subtitles are indeed there. May be they don't know how to turn it on1

NO ENGLISH SUBTITLES
It says it has English subtitles but it does not. Very disappointed in that.

Very well directed, wonderfully told
A gripping thriller full of fantastic surprises. What marks this film out is the director's subtle intelligent touch. It keeps us focused on a human story. This is a mainstream thriller that can give the Bourne franchise a run for its money. Wouldn't be surprised if Hollywood picks it up for an English language remake.

Different Theme emotionally
A nice sequel to Kahaani, though not in the same genre as the first one, this exemplifies the motherly love.

Never lets up the pace
KAHAANI 1Fast and furious with as many twists as the streets of Kolkata.Fantastic plot. Looking forward to the sequel.KAHAANI 2No links at all to Kahaani 1, except for the central actress. (No need to see No. 1 first.)Another excellent drama, with some very important social commentary.Equally edge-of-the-seat, especially the final 30 minutes. Highly recommended

VERY GOOD SUSPENSE
THIS IS TYPICAL SUSPENSE MOVIE WITH ALL THE TWISTS & TURNS THAT ARE EXPECTED OF SUCH A FILM. THE END, OF COURSE, IS ALSO UNEXPECTED AND DARING. VERY GOOD PRODUCTION VALUES(SOUND RECORDING-EDITING-SPECIAL EFFECTS ETC) MAKE THE FILM ENJOYABLE. A CONVENTIONAL & SIMPLE SUSPENSE FILM. GO FOR IT. DEFINITELY ENJOYABLE.HEMANT
