With less that 24 hours in the release of Teen Patti, the excitement is not just building but has already reached the saturation point. Being a resident of one of the posh colonies in Mumbai, I decided to catch up with the late night show of the movie tomorrow at one of the theatres in South Bombay, but to my surprise found it house full. The audience is extremely thrilled about this razor sharp thriller starring cinema’s two living legends, Amitabh Bachchan and Sir Ben Kingsley. The exciting element is also the 4 new debutants of the movie. The chocolate boy looks of Dhruv Ganesh, firangi angle in Siddharth Kher’s personality, the Mr. Attitude being Vaibhav Talwar and the new dream girl, Shraddha Kapoor, are also in limelight. The film definitely belongs to a different genre and may appeal to a niche audience, but is capable of having a powerful impact.

Life is always related to an equation and the law of probability; and this is what Amitabh Bachchan or as we may know him from tomorrow onwards Venkat Subramaniam, tries to prove in this emotionally riveting movie. Interest and anxiety will obviously creep in as the movie takes its twists and turns through the changing desires of its characters. Revolving around greed, deception and giant feats of imagination, all I can say is that Teen Patti is the one movie to look out for this long festive weekend.
