Koi Jaane Na Review: Suspense of this thriller film is not engaging at all due to poor writing and screenplay
Koi Jaane Na Movie Rating: 1.5 stars
Just watched Koi Jaane Na movie on Amazon Prime Video. So let’s analyze the cast, release date, story, positive/negatives and at last my personal view on this movie.
Cast: Kunal Kapoor, Amyra Dastur, Neha Mahajan, Aditi Govitrikar, Atul Kulkarni and Vidya Malavade
Director: Amin Hajee
Release Date: 27th May 2021 (On Amazon Prime Video)
Story: Kabir Kapoor (Kunaal Kapoor) is a novelist who has divorced his wife, Rashmi (Vidya Malvade) for cheating on him with his publisher Randeep (Randeep Arya). Kabir also writes murder mystery novels about a fictitious character called Zaraan Khan. But he does so as a ghost writer because they are cheap pulp fiction books rather than the intense works for which he has millions of fans. For writing the Zaraan Khan novels, he disguises as the character he wants to give Zaraan Khan in his novel, which makes them extremely popular with the masses.
Meanwhile his publisher Randeep and Rashmi are contemplating legal action against Kabir for not writing the second part of the novel despite taking a fat signing amount. Kabir is unable to write the second part and also does not have the money to return the publisher the signing amount he had accepted. His manager (Achint Kaur) prods him on to write the second part and get done with it.
One day Kabir meets Suhana (Amyra Dastur) just by chance while going to his farmhouse in panchgani and takes a liking for her. Randeep And Rashmi was sure that Kabir is writing something that they does not aware of so sent a detective Rosario (Amin Hajee) to find the proof against him in which he takes the help from local photographer Chandrakant.
Kabir and Suhana’s meets again and again love blossoms. But in between the love story happen two murders that of Detective Rosario and photographer. Police Inpector (Ashwini Kalsekar) is investigating this case and Kabir becomes the prime suspect in both the murder cases. Soon, the needle of suspicion points to one Dr. Rao (Atul Kulkarni). Strangely the two murders have an uncanny resemblance to the murders in the Zaraan Khan novels by Kabir. Who is the murderer to find the answer you need to watch the film.

Durgesh Tiwary’s View : When I watched the trailer of this film planned to watch it once premiere on OTT and yesterday Amazon Prime Video released this movie.
Amin Hajee has written a story which is a suspense drama but the suspense simply fails to involve the audience even one bit. The story actually makes the viewers wonder what he is trying to arrive at because it is half-baked and goes from nowhere to almost nowhere. No doubt, the revelation of the suspense in the end does shock the viewers but the sense of participation which the audience feels till that point is reached is not half as much as it should have been. In other words, there are some scenes which don’t come in the natural flow of things.
Probably, the weakest part of the screenplay is that although Suhana meets Kabir by chance, her involvement in Kabir’s life and his novel’s characters gives the impression that she had planned her meeting with him, which is not the case.. My view on this movie (Not Recommended)
