Neeyat - Movie

 Watched this classic which is apparently based on 'Knives Out'. It does make you want to bring the knives out for sure.

The poster tells you how it could be!

So a rich businessman who somehow reminds you of Vijay Mallya is hosting a party in his English villa which is conveniently placed on the edge of a cliff. He invites a motley crew of friends and relatives - a drug addict son who craves for his father's love, his girl friend who looks sober enough but obviously not because she is hooked to this drug addict (and who has visions of one Deepa Challam who died in a factory accident which will play out later), a huge tarot card reader, a solo event manager, a weird assistant, a girlfriend who is supposed to tell jokes but forgets them after the first one, her young associate, one obviously gay loser uncle and most importantly a CBI officer who dresses like a senior high school student and spouts stuff like she is in a quiz. 

Well, people start dying - actually it starts with the death of a young dog who accidentally laps up some poison and dies happily - I would have too if I was stuck with this bunch. Anyway they die one after another in a most bizarre manner and you feel they will all get up and walk because that is how fake it all seems until it is finally revealed who the killer is. (Hey, truth be told, I actually forgot who killed who, but I remember why the detective did what she did)

Anyway, the good news is that that movie ends. Do they actually pay to make such movies? Stupid question - as long as there are people like us watching such movies they will be made. But I think this was one movie I could not handle in one go so saw it in some 10 instalments. The brain cannot take it.
