Kakuda Moive Review : 'Kakuda' presents a bizarre narrative that struggles to make sense. While ghost films often embrace absurdity, director Aditya Sarpotdar’s ‘Kakuda’, written by Avinash Dwivedi and Chirag Garg, reaches new heights of incoherence. Ratodi, a small town in Mathura, is tormented by the ghost of a dwarf clown named Kakuda. Every Tuesday, Kakuda's spirit preys on the men of the village. The only way to avoid his curse is by leaving a small window-like door open in their homes. Failure to comply results in deadly consequences.
Sunny (Saqib Saleem) and his father have managed to escape the curse so far, but on one ill-fated Tuesday, everything changes. On the evening of his wedding to Indira (Sonakshi Sinha), Sunny returns home late and falls victim to Kakuda’s curse. He is doomed to die on the thirteenth day, with a hump on his back. Refusing to believe in superstitions, Indira takes matters into her own hands by involving a ghost hunter named Victor (Riteish Deshmukh). But will Victor's ghost-busting methods save Sunny from an untimely demise?
The execution and treatment of Kakuda are so juvenile that there’s never a moment when Sunny’s life feels genuinely threatened. Sarpotdar fails to evoke a sense of fear or concern for any of the characters. The plot, besides being ludicrous and outlandish, is also
unconvincing. While the story follows a similar pattern as ‘Stree’, this one lacks the humour and finesse needed to make such a premise work. The writing fails to make us connect with any of the characters or take their life-threatening predicament seriously. The humor feels forced, and the comedy is virtually non-existent. None of the jokes land, and apart from a few lines delivered by Sunny’s best friend Kilvish (Aasif Khan), the rest don't even elicit a chuckle from the audience. The only redeeming feature of the film is its main villain. Kakuda’s appearance carries an element of eerie mystery. Sarpotdar manages to create a spooky atmosphere whenever Kakuda comes calling. However, the characters' reactions, who are supposed to be terrified of him, come across as confused and fail to convince us to take the events seriously. Kakuda’s backstory and motivations have some depth but lack overall conviction.
Despite the film's mediocre writing, Sonakshi Sinha delivers a decent performance. Her character is the only one that makes some sense. It’s hard to empathise with Saqib Saleem’s character, despite his impending death in the plot. Riteish Deshmukh is reduced to playing a caricatured ghostbuster, sporting multiple tattoos and kohl-lined eyes. An actor of his talent is wasted in a poorly written role.
Overall, 'Kakuda' fails to either scare or amuse. This in itself is a good reason to give this campy horror-comedy a miss.
