Shirish Kunder, why don’t you take criticism seriously?

Lady serial killer

Cast: Manoj Bajpayee, Jacqueline Fernandez, Mohit Raina

Director: Shirish Kunder

In Ms Serial Killer, Shirish Kunder has tried to mix horror and comedy, and has an actor like Manoj Bajpayee at his disposal, but the end result is as good as Joker or Jaan-E-Mann. Now when I’m writing this with Justin Bieber songs playing in the background, trust me, none of this makes sense to me.

Perhaps, Kunder is a misunderstood genius whose work will arouse interest 100 years later, but even then at least this generation would not need to suffer again and regret our choices.

It is a place in Uttarakhand where Sona Mukherjee (Jacqueline Fernandez) lives with her husband Mrityunjoy Mukherjee (Manoj Bajpayee). Some single but pregnant women are killed, and the circumstantial evidence points to Mrityunjoy. A vengeful inspector Imran Shahid (Mohit Raina) is handling the case, and it seems he would not stop chasing the truth easily.

Before continuing, guess why the movie is called Mrs Serial Killer? Because after the husband’s arrest, someone writes these words on the Mukherjees border wall. It is that literal. That young man who was writing on Kabir Khan’s wall in Chak De India was ten times smarter than these people!

Then there are unprovoked taekwondo lessons served with unsolicited advice on what an ideal movie should look like. If it hadn’t been for respect for Bajpayee’s talent, it was a good reason to file a director’s license seizure case against Kunder. It would have been an easy case to win as the authorities would have to watch the Kunder films to understand their true potential!

Sometimes critics take a bullet to save others. The first 20 minutes of the movie seem like a total assault on the senses, but what do you do? You can only hope for little joys in life. In a 105-minute movie, he’s pretty late, about 15 minutes before the end. By then, you are brain dead and you need a little Bieber to bounce back: is it silly not to ask for forgiveness?

Even if it was planned as a satire, it needed more intelligence and not just CID 2.0: Oh my gosh! It is an intricate script that required fine-tuning by many drafts, or Inspector Daya would say: Darwaaza band hai, matlab andar koi nahi hai (the door is closed, meaning no one is inside).

Using a Psycho-inspired background score might not be enough for a lower IQ.

Working from home is difficult anyway. I don’t understand why Shirish Kunder has to make it even more difficult.

Rating: 1/5
