Aa Dekhen Zara Review

Wildlife photographer Ray Acharya (Neil Nitin Mukesh) is struggling to make ends meet. His inventor grandfather dies leaving him an antiquated camera. When a random photo he takes of his glamorous neighbour Simi (Bipasha Basu) on her balcony shows her in a night club the next day, Ray soon discovers that this is no ordinary camera but a device that allows him to take snapshots of the future.

Ray saves Simi and wins her love, and he realises the power of the camera to change his life. Using the camera to determine the winning horse in every race, he embarks on a gambling spree that changes his fortunes overnight. However, he soon becomes the target of unscrupulous forces seeking to acquire his remarkable device. A frantic chase begins which the camera predicts will end in Ray's death. He has five days to elude his assailants and cheat destiny.

Aa Dekhen Zara is based on an interesting premise and the scene is set quite adequately at the outset as we become embroiled in Ray's obsession with the camera. Courtesy of slick editing, the film is very pacy, but the plot unravels during the second half and the chase quickly becomes drawn out and tiresome.
