Kho Gaye Hum Kahan: A Scary Tale of New-gen

Siddhant Chaturvedi, Ananya Pandey, and Adarsh Gaurav starrer ‘Kho Gaye Hum Kahan’ is an absolutely crazy new-gen movie. More than the main players' mobile phones, Tinder and Instagram play vital roles in this most ultra modern-day tale. In fact, if one takes them off from this film, there will be hardly any story. Common sense and wisdom seem to be the rarest commodities for the characters.

Skimpy dresses for all women, ill-fitting and gaudy ones for men, nonstop consumption of alcohol, noisy pubs, crazy parties, foul language, and four-letter abuses fly in plenty. Strip them off; there is no movie. The three characters’ professions are supposed to be a corporate employee, a stand-up comedian, and a gym instructor; amazing as their houses are modern and well-furnished and the parents are so indulgent it looks and give them funds to squander.

The life the film depicts is something really weird. If it reflects the real, it is highly dangerous and despicable; frequent news on suicides, murders, depression, bipolar disorders, and intolerance among the youth of the present gen could be understood if one has the patience to watch this celluloid creation.

It is like films packed with violence claiming that they want to show the horror of violence. But we all know that only breeds the crime further.

The media says it is a message to the youth of today. I beg to differ from the media patronage for this movie; the message gets drowned in a crass, stupid, and alarming narrative.
