EMI Bollywood Movie Watch Online Review
EMI peeks into the lives of - DJ Ryan (Arjun Rampal), a harried father Chandrakant Desai (Kulbhushan Kharbanda), a newly married couple Anil and Shilpa (Ashish-Neha) and a widow, Prerna (Urmila). All these have either taken huge bank loans or owe a lot of money to the credit card companies. A reckless spender, Ryan likes to enjoy a high life at the cost of plastic money. He takes great pride in being a credit card defaulter. Desai takes a Rs. 10 lakh loan for funding his wayward son’s foreign education but his son cares less about the responsibility he owes to his father. Anil and Shilpa to have a happy married life end up taking all sorts of loans which leave them very little savings in their hands at the month end what with their both’s salaries going into paying the EMIs. Prerna’s hubby had committed suicide having been unable to pay his loans but she is hell bent on proving in the court that he was murdered. All this for the sake of a Rs. 2 crore insurance claim! Misleaded she ends up paying Rs. 10 lakh to a fixer who assures of proving the case in her favour. But as the fixer dies a mysterious death, her troubles multiply. In comes, recovery agent appointed by the bank, Sattar Bhai (Dutt) who runs Goodluck Recovery Agency who aims to recover the loan amount back from these defaulters in his own unique ways. What twists and turns take place when a wannabe politician Sattar goes on to encounter these characters forms the rest of the film.
The premise is fun and unique but bogged down by extraneous scenes. For example the scene in the bar after Sattar’s mentor tells him to earn people’s respect if he wants to enter into politics is unnecessary and stretched. Sattar’s drunk chamcha explains this concept slurring that “aap izzat denge, to log izzat lenge”. To which Sattar says “maine frock pehna hai kya?”. Tsk…such crassness is never required to drive home a point.
And if this dialogue was written to elicit laughs, then the writer’s talents are seriously questionable. Also annoying is the too-smart dialogue baazi that’s a staple of all the assorted goondas in the film.
On the plus side is the budding romance track between Sattar and Prerna, two interesting people who find love unexpectedly. The songs are hummable and include the gamut of romantic and dance numbers.
Performance wise, the film is an extreme — while Sanjay Dutt, Urmila Matondkar, Arjun Rampal and Kulbhushan Kharbanda are immensely likeable, there are several others that spoil the show.
The warring yuppie couple, for example, doesn’t make us feel anything for them. The young wayward son’s weak dialogue delivery runs the track down. All of Sattar’s men are one-dimensional crooks we’re seen in every bhai film.
