United Six Review

Filmmakers, who make an entry in Bollywood, want some kind of different subject to produce their first film. By watching this film you will get the same idea that the producer C.G Patel wanted to produce a film on unique and different subject. It seems that after getting recognition in Gujarat politics now C.G.Patel wants to get recognition in Hindi Film Industry too with such start. But if you think that without any known hero if you make any film which would be categorized as different then you are wrong!

Few weeks back the film NO ONE KILLED JESSSICA too had no hero but was an okay film. So how can you say that this film is without a hero so it is a different film!

In fact 5-6 girls go to foreign country to fulfil their dreams. But a time comes when they find that their dreams are being shattered, they take such a step which hardly any girl would have taken till date in any film.

Story : White House Productions Ltd.'s United Six (A) is the story of 6 girls who are away from their own country and who are living in Bangkok. All 6 girls are friends but they have something in common. They all are going through tough times at their work places and are not happy with what is happening to them. The boss of Jia (Daisy Bopanna) has fired her from the bank where she worked. The reason was that she has turned down the sexual favours which her boss had expected from her. Aggravated and angry Jia makes a plan to rob the bank. Jia tells everything to her 5 friends and also tells them about her plan. Finally she convinces all of them viz. Shaina (Parvathy Omanakuttan), Maddy (Luna Lahkar), Tia (Mahi), Candy (Isha Batwe) and Tootsie (Pooja Sharma) to help her out in her plan to avenge her insult. Her friends initially do not agree but they finally relent.

Thereafter Jia and her friends rent a bakery which adjoins to the bank and start digging a tunnel leading to the strong room of the bank(You can read this story of Sherlock Homes from where the writers have stolen the idea).

But in this story the 6 girls do not succeed and soon they give up their idea on realizing that making a tunnel by digging and robbing the bank was almost an impossible task. But to their surprise and bewilderment they come to know next day from news aired on channels that the same bank had been robbed and the news stated that 6 girls were behind the robbery.

Now the police are on the hunt of 6 girls who could loot the bank. They start finding different girls and start identifying them.

It is a big mystery for the girls that if they didn't commit the crime then who looted the bank and why did their names came. Who else knew about their plan? Now they are running away from Bangkok police. On one hand they are hiding their identities and on the other hand they are also arranging money to hire a launch to escape from the country.

Would the girls succeed in escaping from that country and the law?

Or would the Bangkok police arrest them? Above all who is the bank robber and how did he commit the crime?

Performance : The film revolves around the 6 girls hence all the 6 actresses have similar roles and they are so and so with their roles. However Jia had got much footage and to show her talent in which she succeeds to some extent. Rest of the artists had to dance and perform drink scenes rather than doing acting.

Direction : It appears that the film has been completed by the choreographer and the action director and the director had hardly anything to do. The film is full of action scenes and dances.

Script : The script is childish.

Music : despite all negative elements the music of Pritam is okay.

Negative Points: The producer of the film has chosen such a subject which any Indian audience would hardly digest. What these girls have done to fulfil their dreams would no girl would have dreamt to do so. Though the film has been shot on foreign locations the film's subject is hardy going to appeal mass audience. May be this is the reason that the distributors decided to release this film only in metros.

Conclusion : The film is neither meant for family nor for mass audience. It has no entertainment elements which could relax your mind.

Verdict : Its wastage of time and money and it would be better if you could watch it on satellite channels after its satellite release.
