He is a concepts man.Īfter the success of his first film Cheeni Kum, a smartly done older-man-younger-woman romance, Balki has been favouring concepts and gimmicks over stories and soul. This is in keeping with adman-turned-writer-director R. The film is so taken in by its concept that it rarely rises above it to become a fully fleshed out story about fully fleshed out people. Episode 4: boy is seen in scenarios usually populated by women in films and real life, such as kitty parties and afternoon shopping sprees.
Episode 3: boy establishes his prowess in running house. Episode 2: boy and girl meet each others’ parent/s. (Spoiler alert!) Episode 1: boy explains notion of their proposed relationship to girl (ergo, to audience) and establishes his liberalism. Where Ki & Ka suffers is in the narrative’s failure to weave each of these passages smoothly together. There is plenty of humour too in the film, especially in the first half. Many modern-day stay-at-home wives struggle with the perennial question, “What do you do?” Similarly, it might indeed be awkward to handle “what does your husband do?” when he does not do what is socially expected of him. It is imaginable, for instance, that Kia would initially be embarrassed to tell her colleagues that Kabir is a househusband. Many of the individual episodes in the film are independently believable in the way they deal with the rarely explored, tricky territory Kia and Kabir are treading. After all, unspoken power equations in most homes are governed by who earns money and who does not. She becomes a VP in her company and supports him financially. He cooks, cleans and supports her from home. When she meets Kabir (Arjun Kapoor), whose sole goal in life is to run a house (or be the “artist” his mother was, as he puts it), it is a perfect fit.
