Sometimes, a good idea can get ruined by inept writing. That’s exactly the case with ROG, written by Mahesh Bhatt and directed by Himanshu Brambhatt.

Frankly, after watching ROG, you fail to understand the motive behind making the film. If it’s meant to catch the fancy of the multiplex crowd/elite, sorry, there’s very little to excite them. If it’s aimed at the masses, there’s scant entertainment in the film.

Summary of the Film:-Uday Singh Rathod [Irrfan Khan] is an honest police inspector, rather a super-cop, quite famed for his brilliant investigative mind. Following the murder of a model, Maya Solomon [South Africa-based model Ilene Hamann], Rathod is handed over the charge of the case. Thus begins Rathod’s unusual journey.

A well-known journalist Harsh [Suhel Seth], a rich party-animal Ali [Himanshu Malik] and his companion Shyamoli [Shyamoli Varma] are short-listed as chief suspects. Rathod works day in and day out to get the mystery solved, eventually falling in love with the dead Maya.

However, Rathod gets the shock of his life when Maya resurfaces one night. If Maya is alive, who had been shot dead that night? And what was the motive behind the murder?

After seeing the movies the post interval ROG falls to an all-time low. The story never moves, in fact it gets weird where the suspects throw a party, then the cop and the model jump on the bed. And then, suddenly, the cop realizes who the actual murderer is!

That’s not all! The climax – which should’ve been the highpoint of this murder mystery – is so tame and lifeless that whatever impact a few sequences must’ve generated just evaporate as quickly. Even when the identity of the murderer is revealed, it just doesn’t come as a shock, partly because of the shoddy screenplay.

Ideally, ROG should’ve been a songless affair, but the two/three songs that come up in the post-interval portions only test the patience of the viewer. In fact, the songs should be deleted rightaway for a better impact.

On the whole, ROG is neither a sleaze-fest, nor is it a scriptural gem. At the box-office, it’s a non-starter.
