Review Koffee With Karan, Ep. 209 : Who The Fuck Is Kunal Kapoor?
Well I have been meaning to do a review of Koffee With Karan’s episode starring the so called “Brat-Pack†of today’s Bollywood industry, namely Kunal Kapoor, Ritesh Deshmukh and Konkona Sen Sharma. But blame it on folks like Mandira Bedi, Femina Miss India 2007 and Beyonce Knowles for taking up my precious blogging time.
Anyways getting back to the review of this particular episode – In plain words, I found it to be the crappiest of all the aired lot from Season Two. I guess the basic fault here were the chosen guests themselves; they were boring, way too diplomatic, “zero†chemistry and some even received highly-exaggerated words of praises (by the host) when they so did not deserve it. In short, had it not been for Konkona, I would have switched the channel at the very start.
To make things clearer, let’s take a look at each of the invited actors.
Guest No. 1, Ms. Konkona Sen Sharma.
Koko baby (as she is lovingly nicknamed) looked smart and jazzy in her black, red and denim blue outfit. Much better than the sari she had worn in Season 1 which made her look a little “auntyishâ€, so it was a relief to see the woman finally look her age. Now we all know she is an amazing actress and on most occasions it is taken for granted that no matter how pathetic the movie is, Koko would still turn out to be her best. But besides her acting skills, it’s also her laidback, non-competitive attitude that makes her coolness appear so hot. However the complete denial of her close relationship with fellow co-star Ranvir Shorey was disappointing, I mean yaar jab pyar kiya toh darna kya. Another crap she threw our way was her statement that she would give up 100s of Namesake roles to do her mother’s (Aparana Sen) films, anytime. Well if she really meant this than how come she signed on two Yash Chopra films instead of doing her mum’s The Japanese Film. The fact is no matter how great you are in parallel cinema, everybody still wants to be a part of masala films.
Besides the above two nooks, I thought she did alright. But was a total mismatch with the two pea-sized brains sharing the couch with her. I would have preferred her with the likes of Mira Niar, Shabana Azmi or Ajay Devgan.
Guest No. 2, Mr. Kunal Kapoor.
Koi mujhe please baatyeh ki yeh langoor “most sought after hero†kab ban gaya. First and foremost, it was total waste to have him on the show; the guy is still far from being even labeled as an actor. Okay so he was chosen for his act in Rang De Basanti but boss, here the credit should be given to the writer and the director of film who made the job a cakewalk for him. His real acting capabilities can be judged from his stint in the recently released film, Hattrick – the bottom line is in-comparison even someone like pakora-faced Emraan Hashmi looks like a national award winner. Now we all know via the show that he and Hrithik Roshan are childhood buddies, which also explains him copying his friend’s talking-style and (irritating) smartass attitude.
And what is with the whole “pin-up boy†and “sexy symbol†lingoes being associated with him, for crying out loud my dog’s butt crack is far more worth it than this man’s sexiness.
The thing is if Karan really wanted to pick someone from the RDB team than he should have gone with either Siddharth or Atul Kulkarni. Even someone like Sharman Joshi would have added some flavor to Karan’s Koffee but instead we were severed a bland one.
Moving on to Guest No. 3, Mr. Ritesh Deshmukh.
Ritesh…hmmm…Ritesh, well I would say he is one of those people who are bearable only on the big screen and not real life. The man was duddest of the two (Kunal Kapoor) and his diplomacy, hiii rabba I rather have G. P. Dutta’s Umroa Jaan put me to sleep than hear this man talk. I say like father like son, right no?
Fine bhai, I agree I am being way too nasty here but the guy totally ticked me off with his insulting side-remark on my mostest favorite and bestest item girl, Rakhi Sawant. For those who don’t know, Ritesh was asked in the Rapid-fire round as to what his reaction would be if Rakhi Sawant accused him of smooching her? In his “I am such a dude†manner he replied “I would tell her, in your dreamsâ€. Ha Ha Ha….we get your point, bloody squinted moron.
This mostly roundups my bitching session but before I wrap up, here are my two bits for host, Karan Johar.
- You mess with Rakhi Sawant means you mess with me and my gundas. And yes, this is a threat.
- Kjo darling everybody knows you prefer to swing the other way, so stop acting like a drama queen whenever the word “homosexuality†pops up.

This is so bloody true. Kunal Kapoor just got lucky with RDB but as an actor he really stinks. Karan Johar on the other hand is a sly bugger.

Sakshi, maybe you are being to judgmental here when you talk about Kunal Kapoor. The man is only 3 movies old so just cut him some slack.
On the whole i agree with you on most points especially the last bit.
Apr 13th, 2007 at 11:47 am | #
Well yes, but how many chances do you give an actor unless he has a big surname ?
Sakshi, as an aside, you might be careful about using language that might trip off adsense filters.
Apr 13th, 2007 at 11:57 am | #
Ashish : Its not about having a “big” name backing, its to do with star quality and acting ability that one needs to have inorder to make it in Bollywood (atleast in the long run). For example Shreyas Talpade, Kay Kay Menon, Sharman Joshi, Atul Kulkarni…they all came from no where but today have made a mark for themselves in Hindi film industry.
In my opinion, Kunal Kapoor ain’t a superstar material. And talking about “big surname”..the only reason why he was on the show was thanks to Yash Uncle pulling his strings…publicity stunt, I say.
ps…as for the AdSense bit, thanks. But frankly, I rather write what I feel than write nothing at all.

Sakshi, Shobha De just called. She wants her job back from you

hey u stupid bitch, cum 2 my place. my doggie just died. i’ll tie u to its leash.first of all i wud like 2 say dat dumb morons with fat asses like Rakhi Sawant r wat dey r 2day bcoz of people with psychotic brains like you. people like you just want a piece of gossip n skin show which makes you so sick.
any man with a little decency wud have replied ditto like Ritesh Deshmukh.
and if u r not into mainstream cinema(of course u wudnt b, coz all u ever mite b watching must b stupid, sleazy videos),lemme tell u dat Ritesh Deshmukh recently played a role in a movie where he was required to dress up like a woman. he took up the role when he knew that he was too young in the industry to b doing any offbeat roles. he took up the challange when the top actors would have shirked away from it. and he did a pretty good job at it. Ritesh Deshmukh is 1 of the finest upcoming actors in Bollywood.
but alas!what would dumb SuperGirl(Rakhi Sawant)[uuggghhh, gimme a break]watching morons like u know abt good acting?
and yeah, u bloody well mind your language dumbass.
[* Edited by Sakshi = Seems to be a die-hard Ritesh Deshmukh fan. And has a serious crush on Me. Wow!!
]
Apr 18th, 2007 at 1:15 pm | #
like WOW. r u shure u r’nt a rocket scientist?coz only those people can figure out tht i am a huge Ritesh Deshmukh fan.
and as far as having a crush on u goes i say “in your dreams”.
BTW girl(or whoeva u r), if u r daring enuff 2 go n write stuff abt people, u should also have the guts to let people read ur comments.
so if u want only applause 4m ur readers(exclude me coz i just read it coz of RD) and not critisism, then SHUT UR BIG FAT MOUTH!!!!!!!!!
]
[* Edited by Sakshi = And now I have a crush on you too.
Apr 18th, 2007 at 1:37 pm | #

[* Edited by Sakshi : Will do and Good Luck to you too.

WOW! like, gimme a break. dats d sole reason y India is not growing. Coz people like u dun voice ur opinion or fight 4 it. u just bloody meekly sit there n say “Thank you”,”sorry” n all d nice words to ur critics.
if u wud have given me a tough answer back, i wud have taken u 4 sumthng. but now i pity u even more.

[Edited by Sakshi : So totally obsessed, its scary no? ]

So that’s the RD he was talking about. I wondered who it was. So Brett Lee and Ritesh Deshmukh have a fan following in looneybins, is it? Figures.
Apr 20th, 2007 at 1:57 pm | #
hey spot on…sply rakhi …she rocks…
Jul 19th, 2007 at 2:29 am | #
I aint gonna agree or disagree with anyone here. All i gotta say is, honey if ure gonna go critisizing everyone to ure heart’s content (which u are entitled to) have some tolerance to be critisized ureself and stop scratching out the not-so-nice stuff ppl say about you.

You most be really stupid. You are just like the other typicall girls. Kunal kapoor is 10 time better then upen patel and arjun rampal. The 3 of them are 10 times better then most of the actors in bollywood. So before speaking you should do research
