    Ratings:.2.5/5 Review By: Rajeev Masand Site: News18
    I didn’t hate The Zoya Factor, and it’s not an unwatchable film by any measure. But it squanders the opportunity to say something about the world we live in, and our reliance on luck as both a crutch and an excuse. The film comes to life in the lighthearted romantic portions between Zoya and Nikhil. I could’ve watched those two for longer…if they’d only shaved off the contrivances.I’m going with two-and-a-half out of five. Sure it takes flight, but it never soars.

    On the whole, The Zoya Factor is a lovely entertainer all the way. Its script, comedy, dialogues, performances and direction are its plus points. The film has enough merits and, therefore, deserves to work at the box-office, especially in the cities and the multiplexes. However, too many releases this week will definitely prevent the film from realising its full potential or rather even making its presence felt everywhere. In fact, it is because of the multiple releases this week that the film has taken a very poor opening. Collections will pick up due to extremely positive word of mouth but it may be too late by then.

    Sonam Kapoor looks fresh and fashionable. But it’s an embarrassingly shrill take. Zoya Solanki is a self-conscious, self-deprecating Karol Bagh girl using humour as a defence mechanism. But when a ready-to-pose-for-this-month’s-Vogue Sonam shrugs off her glamour to cry how ‘Main kabhi Miss Sainik Farms ki runner-up bhi nahi bani,’ the false notes are hard to miss. The role needed the comic timing of Juhi Chawla and feisty spirit of Kareena Kapoor’s Geet Dhillon. Sonam plays her like an airhead channelling her inner Asit Sen. Although more class monitor than captain, the Dulquer factor is the only saving grace of this bland confection. His charisma and cricket are up to the mark.

    The dialogues by Farhad Samji are often too filmy and funny and they don’t always fit into the moment. Prassthanam manages to hold your interest in parts due to its fast paced developments. But it also suffers from the usual pitfalls like unwanted songs and just too many conflicts, happening all at once. In conclusion, Prassthanam is a tried and tested political potboiler with power, greed and emotions at its core.

    The Zoya Factor could have been a thoroughly enjoyable comedy. It ends up being a scrappy, erratic knock where a few crisp strokes are hopelessly outnumbered by a host of ungainly heave-hos. The film does not hit the sweet spot often enough to translate into either a truly rousing cricket film or a memorably moving love story..

    The book was always going to be a movie. It’s taken more than ten years, and while Sonam’s Zoya and Dulquer’s Nikhil make a good-looking pair, I wasn’t as blown away by them as I was hoping to: they come together only intermittently, as does the film.For a rom-com which needs to be light on its feet, hitting fours and sixes as it goes along, the writing is not as supple as it should have been. Too many slog overs here.

    On the whole, THE ZOYA FACTOR is a feel-good popcorn entertainer that works chiefly due to concept, treatment, humour and performances. At the box office, it has the potential to grow dramatically due to a good word of mouth.

    ‘Prassthanam’ (reign) should serve as a lesson to all those who believe a star, albeit a rusty one, is enough to earn top dollar at the box office.It’s equally frustrating to watch a film, knowing the potential it holds, but bad execution and a regressive storyline lead the train to derail even before it leaves the station.

    All in all, it is sad to see a movie that had so much potential, just letting go. The movie had too many subplots, only half of which were needed. It can be said that the first half of the film has direction and drive after which everyone seemed to give up and just wanted to kill or die. As did we as the credits finally rolled out.
