I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Yesterday i got the chance to view this movie. Name of the movie encouraged me a lot. I thought it would be a good adventure movie with some mystery involved. I i would like to appreciate the writer for thinking in a new way by concatenating adventure with mystery but he fails to write a realistic story and same happens in the direction part also. Through out the movie Director is not able to leave his mark. He would have covered the jungle and mountain in a different way by capturing some amazing location. we expect some good music from every Bollywod movie but here also Naksha fails completely. Through out the movie i was searching for the best part of the movie and sorry so say i couldn't found it. In coming future i would like to see some more Bollywod movies which try to think about some kind of good mixture of adventure and mystery with good direction.Thanks

Hi, In case you are sitting awfully idle and don't know what to do with your time then this movie fits in your schedule. Rent a VCD and see it and don't waste your money going to the theatres.The plot tries to work on Indian mythology but the movie is so loosely scripted and even so badly executed that you wonder why did the makers even make it. The actors are totally wasted and loose they simple did it for money and they are not getting any worthwhile project to do (which is actually true for all the starts of this film).Creditible is the fact that they tried to make an adventure film that have totally died out in Bollywood.See it..close it..forget it.. (if u want to watch it)

I had no intention of writing a review on this film but after reading the reviews written by others i was forced to do so. One of them said that the movie deals with trash mythology.Let me bring to the notice that the film has shown some amazing things about the Indian Heritage so you can take a hike. The movie is quite average and enjoyable.Few things in it is not acceptable like the scenes of Sunny Deol and Vivek Oberoi which was just copied from Welcome to the Jungle and also the action sequences like the jeep stunt, the shotgun sequence, and the fight with the dwarfs. It was just Cut and Paste. The story though was the same, but the actors had done quite well.Sameera Reddy was unnecessary. Jackie Shroff did a fairly good job and was acceptable. Hence, in all it was a film with too many songs, but enjoyable at the same time... Only a one time watch...

This is the latest movie to hit the screen and again I could not help but end up among the folks lining up to watch the preview. The trailers promised a good time and promotions hinged on this being a "different masala" kind of movie. This also marked the return of Sunny Deol after quite a hiatus.First the story – Two archaeologists, one good and one bad i.e. Bali (Jackie Shroff), are on a quest for a supernatural power. The good guy dies in order to avoid the map falling into the bad guy's hand. 20 years down the line the son of the good guy Vicky (Viveik Oberoi) inadvertently gets the map. Realizing that this was his father's dream he sets out to fulfill it. On the way, he gets into trouble as Jackie's men attack and kidnap him for the map. His elder step-brother Veer (Sunny Deol) comes to his rescue. Veer has come to take him back home and Vicky is in no mood to relent. Vicky manages to convince Veer that this was their father's dream and they ought to realize it. On the way, they realize that their father was not killed in an accident but by Bali who by now has managed to lay his hands on the map. Then starts a roller coaster ride to the destination and in the end the good triumphs over evil.This film boasts of a very interesting concept. Such films are rarely made in India (the last such movie that you can think of is the Mackenna's gold inspired Zalzala in the 80s). Just like you have seen/read concepts like Da Vinci Code/National Treasure which deal with mythology/history; the film successfully uses mythology (read Mahabharatha). But, interesting concept needs to be in efficient hands to make it into a good film. Such movies (maybe view might have been affected by watching similar kind of Hollywood movies) need to be going at breakneck speed, make your adrenaline pump; basically make you hooked onto the proceedings. This is where Naksha falters.Notable scenes in the movie are:***The clues are well thought out and filmed ***The chase through water is good ***The final climax and especially the way they ended was good. The director being a first timer could be a reason for this. Though some scenes have been handled well, Sachin Bajaj needs to improve on his story telling abilities. Editing doesn't help its cause either. Looks like the editor took leave or fell in love with the visuals. The first half really tests your patience. All the songs prove to be speed breakers and should be chopped off as songs don't have a place in such movies. Also, quite a number of scenes can be trimmed. Technically the film is far above the "run of the mill" movies. The camera-work is just splendid. The picturesque locations in New Zealand have been captured vividly. Action, by Allan Amin, is another area which has some fantastic work. Some of the action sequences have been directly "inspired" by the Rock movie "Welcome to the Jungle" as also quite a number of scenes. No harm in that as long as you do justice to that and Allan Amin does do justice. Background score by Salim-Suleiman is also very good. Music by Pritam is decent. The "U & I" number during the end titles stands out.On the acting front, Sunny Deol is likable as Veer. Given that his role is that of a strong guy, cant imagine others carrying it off convincingly. After a long time we see him in a non-patriotic/non-preachy kind of role and is a welcome change. He was his usual self in bashing up people, like only he can. His dancing was surprise though and looked like he thoroughly enjoyed himself in the "Jat Yamla" song, a far cry from his days of exercising in the name of dance (remember "Yaara O Yaara" from JeetJ).Viveik Anand Oberoi, that's what he calls himself now, might need to reevaluate his profession. The first 15-20 mins when he was showing himself as cool guy was irritating to say the least and the audience was praying for Sunny Deol to appear on screen (Actually the cheers were pretty loud when Sunny entered). Viveik was better off in the later parts but could have been better. No idea what happened to the promise he showed in his debut movie "Company".Sameera Reddy does not have anything to do and only once or twice mentions she was a journalist that's it. Just there for singing and dancing.Jackie is good as the villainous Bali and he does look sinister enough. A talented actor who nowadays does not do good enough movies shines here. Mridula Chandrashekhar marks her debut as a moll and is utterly wooden. She does nothing noteworthy except bare her body which she does effectively. Others like Suhashini Mulay, Navni Parihar, Lilliput are all wasted in inconsequential roles.Overall Naksha has an interesting, different plot and has its moments but makes you wonder how good it would have been with a competent director and and some editor
