Raetsonwe Redundant and unnecessary.
Lawbolisted Powerful
Konterr Brilliant and touching
Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
ankitgup Do not waste your time. one of the worst screenplay I have ever seen. story is good though. Everything except the story is bad in my opinion. Manoj sir is disappointing.Deepak Tijori and Bijesh Jayarajan surely know how to f*ck with a very nice story.They tried to show some hotness but they failed miserably. I think I have helped you as much as i could. IMDb is saying I have to write at least 10 lines. the movie starts with a murder then it proceeds in a love triangle by now the director have forgotten about the murder. the movie is a Fareb to the audience.
silvan-desouza Deepak Tijori was not that successful as an actor, mostly he played supporting roles and then he shifted to direction, starting with OOPS and then KHAMOSH and then FAREB(2005). Starring Manoj Bajpai with Shetty Sisters(Shilpa and Shamita) The film mixes AITRAAZ, ZEHER and many films and the final combination isn't too appealing. It starts off as a thriller becomes an Aitraaz kinda film and ends up like one. The film holds your attention in many parts, though at times things don't work out, especially as predictability starts. The movie follows the throdden part towards the climax Direction is okay, though the script lets him down Music is okay Baras Jaa being the most popular one.Manoj Bajpai however great actor maybe, is not that comfortable in commercial films especially the lovey dovey stuff, he does his role well except in some scenes though but yet a good job- 6.5/10 Shilpa Shetty underplays her part with maturity - 8/10 Shamita Shetty is also superb, sadly her career didn't work out well - 7/10 Amongst rest Parmeet Sethi is okay, Milind Gunaji too is okay(surprisingly he starred in another film with the same title in 1996) Kelly Dorji, Shawar Ali are nothing great rest are okay
AishFan This movie is a bit of a disappointment as the trailers are slightly misleading in terms of the story. Although the story is kind of interesting, it is rather slow-paced. Manoj Bajpai just seems average. Post-Phir Milenge Shilpa Shetty has been giving one good, mature performance after another. Above all is Shamita Shetty who definitely is the show stealer. Her power-packed scenes are awesome and she performs and delivers her dialogues straight from the heart full of passion, rage, or sensuality. The Manoj-Shamita confrontation scene is quite interesting and the revealing of the mystery person is quite shocking and adds a whole another dimension to the story, which had become quite a drag towards the end.
tirthadeep1987 FAREB is not just a love triangle, revolving around a man torn between love and lust but also a murder mystery. And the women in this story go to extremes to get the man they desire.Not that FAREB is path-breaking cinema. In fact, FAREB is too ordinary a fare as far as the script is concerned, but it's Tijori's execution that holds your interest at several points in the film.. Aditya Manoj Bajpai works as a creative director in an advertising agency. His wife Neha Shilpa Shetty, a medical practitioner, is devoted to her husband and kid.Riya Shamita Shetty was married to a corporate honcho Bakul Thakker, who happened to be a client of Aditya's ad-agency. Riya and Aditya meet at a presentation and she gets attracted to him. Riya is completely smitten by Aditya and tries to seduce him time and again. He spurns her initially, but succumbs to her charms eventually. This leads to a rift between Aditya and Neha.And then the unthinkable happens: Riya is murdered. The needle of suspicion points towards Aditya and being the prime suspect, the cops Kelly Dorji, Hemant Pande arrest him. Someone is also watching Aditya and blackmailing him for his affair with Riya. Who killed Riya?FAREB isn't an original subject. A theme like this has been witnessed with regularity in Bollywood. A dash of AITRAAZ, a bit of ZEHER and a tinge of BEZUBAAN mix them, shake them and FAREB is ready to be served.From the writing point of view, screenplay writers Brijesh Jayarajan and Girish Dhamija open the cards at the very outset. A happily-married couple, a young entrepreneur who has just lost her husband, the woman seducing the man she wants to possess, the blackmailer, the rift between husband-wife... So much is packed in the first hour. While Tijori handles the plot convincingly, the pace slows down time and again in this half. The slow pacing can still be overlooked thanks to the twists and turns in the story, which genuinely keep you involved. The intermission point, when Manoj and Shamita have an ugly confrontation, only raises the expectations from the second half.But problems seep in during the post-interval portions…The story becomes one of those routine murder-mysteries in this half. From the motive and identity of the blackmailer to the actual culprit in the finale, the sequence of events that lead to the climax are plain mediocre. The identity of the killer does come as a surprise, but not as a jolt. That nail-biting finish is clearly lacking here!Writers Brijesh Jayarajan and Girish Dhamija could've thought of a far more imaginative and innovative way to take the story to the finale. Anu Malik's music is in sync with the film and thankfully, the songs don't pop up every fifteen minutes. Manoj Bajpai handles his role with amazing ease. Shilpa Shetty maintains the studied silence part with grace and maturity. Shamita Shetty is getting better with every film. Kelly Dorji is expressionless. Milind Gunaji and Parmeet Sethi are okay.Rating:- * *.
