PLOT: This is a suspenseful story about Karthik Narayan, who is a timid individual working in Mumbai for a construction firm. Karthik lives alone and does not have life beyond work. Karthik is a hard worker (as is portrayed), but does not claim any credit for the duties of his co-workers that which he takes on without being able to say no. In the eyes of his boss he’s a worthless dud. Not being able to say no is only one of his many shortcomings. Karthik manages to stay holed up in his office cube all day, complete all work thrusted upon him and go back home to stare at his television before hitting the sack. Karthik does not have any friends and his non-work related excitement in life is the office Architect, Shonali. He seeks counseling from a shrink to improve his life, but the sessions are not fruitful. Karthik’s life changes through a phone call he receives on his birthday from a person, also called Karthik (‘K2’ for purpose of this review). K2 sounds like Karthik, knows Karthik in and out and continues to call Karthik at 5am every day. K2 counsels Karthik, ‘teaches’ him ways of the world and makes him wordly wise. Karthik becomes a confident individual, gets a grip on life and manages a promotion at work. Shonali takes notice, and they eventually fall in love. Karthik eventually reveals his little secret to Shonali against K2’s interests; she does not buy the story and asks Karthik to get treated by a shrink. Karthik manages to prove to the shrink and Shonali that the calls do come at 5am which. K2 does not like that the secret is out, and takes control to spoil it all for Karthik who goes into hiding. The rest of the story is about how Karthik comes back to being himself and revealing the identity of K2. PERFORMANCES: Farhan Akhtar has shown great maturity in acting right from his first movie as an actor, Rock On, where he shared screen space with multiple actors. In this flick, Karthik shuttles between 2 mental modes – shy, frightened and recluse to being a confident, happy character. Farhan as Karthik is brilliant. He’s easily a one-man-show in the movie. Farhan as the shy Karthik generally has a straight face and is often confused about why he is being a pushover. He has a lot of screen time being the protagonist. The 5am phone call scenes are amazingly done, especially after K2 and Karthik fall apart and K2 turns to threatening and being negative. Farhan as the confident Karthik is not as impressionable as the sad Karthik who’s sad and afraid. Although, Farhan has not overdone the happy Karthik bit, and it’s easier for the viewer to understand the behavioural change. His emotions are very well-emoted through his eyes and this is Farhan’s plus point, even in movies to come. Farhan has dressed up well and the language is urban. As such, Farhan has decent chemistry with Deepika Padukone (playing Shonali). Deepika as Shonali is alright. IMHO, Deepika as Shonali is not indispensable. Within the realms of the subject, Shonali is a glam doll and that’s that. Deepika with her sense of style, dressing, and body language plays a confident Architect who’s newly out of a relationship and is trying to make a long-term commitment with Karthik. Deepika was expected to look good, and…period. The role does not require her to add weight to the story along, except the turning point where she’s flabbergasted with Karthik revealing about his phone-counselor, K2. Overall, she adds the ‘sexy’ quotient to the movie by adding the oomph factor and being a flirtatious single, uptown girl newly in love and who’s not conservative about getting intimate with a new guy friend. Deepika hasn’t done a ‘news-reporter’ this time and her diction does see some improvement. The suspense unravels well but comes all-too-easy to the viewer at the end. It would have helped to throw off the viewer a bit by encompassing some superfluous characters or distracting events. Focus on Farhan Akhtar is a lot, but could have been avoided. The viewer does not mind otherwise given the plot, but in any case, the movie is sensibly made. The flick loses points because the script is not extraordinary, neither is the treatment. Farhan Akhtar, Direction and Editing are the USP-in-toto. Watch if you like drama, or even plain Bollywood.

I WAS DYING TO SEE A MOVIE WHICH COULD TAKE A LIL INSPIRATION FROM HOLLYWOOD AND MAKE A GOOD INTERESTING,INNOVATIVE MOVIE. AT-LAST I FOUND IT...KARTIK CALLING KARTIK IS A BRILLIANT ATTEMPT TO MAKE A PSYCHOTIC THRILLER, FARHAN HAS GROWN AS A ACTOR. IT LL BE VERY SOON, THAT HE LL KNOWN AS A ACTOR THAN A DIRECTOR-PRODUCER-SINGER TURNED ACTOR...THE MULTI-TALENTED DUDE OF BOLLYWOOD WHO COULD VIRTUALLY DO ANYTHING IN A MOVIE..DEEPIKA ACTS AS A VERY GOOD DEMANDING GIRLFRIEND...LOVE THEIR CHEMISTRY...I WILL REMEMBER THIS MOVIE AS THE 1ST MOVIE WITHOUT SILLY SONGS OR DANCES AND WITH ONLY PURE ACTING SKILLS....FARHAN I SALUTE U MAN..!

The Movie starts off very well...but the second is just too lengthy an its just not ending...it gets slow during the second half.the climax was very much predicted in first 15 20 mins of the movie. The movie could have been better.The performance wise Farhan is good,Deepika looks stunning but still needs to learn acting,Ram Kapoor is just perfect.

Again Taran Flops by calling it a decent movie and giving it 2.5 (remember MINK got 4.5 he he .... SRK and Karan's chamcha Mr Adarsh..dont know may even have been bribed heavily). I cannot remember a sequence where I was bored in the movie. The pace of the movie was awesome. Except for one or two dull songs towards the end it was just rocking. You know for sure thru out the movie that Kartick has some phsycological disorder but the "actual calls coming" sequences are just mind blowing and seriously confuses and amazes you. You keep guessing different plots after that and at the end you are surprised with the actual mystery. Ending in no way was a let down as told my Mr Adarsh. I totally agree with Amit in his review below. Yeah Deepika may be bit of let down but that doesnot impact much.

KCK is a really a good attempt and it is worth-watch movie. the story line was so interesting that a man get calls from himself.. such a nice and tremendous thought.and it's been executed also well. One thing that FARHAN AKTHAR whether as an actor or director or producer, he wioll create magic. Farhan acted very well in this.Vijay Lalwani had made the movie so interesting up to the end. He Proved him as good story and screrenplay writer and his dialogues are also so classy. Music BY S_E_L was great and picturization of songs was also good by Senu verghese.Background score by midilval punditz had made the movie thrilling. last but not least DEEPIKA was so beautiful and her chemistry with farhan really rockzz.. allover the film is a real worth-watch and technically well made film.
