It seems that bollywood' s latest addiction is photography. After 'Aa dekhe zara' last week '8*10 Tasveer ' is also a concoction supernatural power & photography. This times it's not the camera but our own dear ' padam shree ' akki himself who has the ability of time traveling
whenever he peeks to a photograph (?) .
Jai Puri (Akshay) is a forest ranger in Canada. For over a year he is having a live in relationship with Sheela (Takia) and staying separately from his parents Jatin (Benjamin Gilani) and Savitri (Sharmila Tagore) because he doesn’t approve of his father’s business dealings.Jai can look at any photograph and can actually go (actually his spirit used to visit) right into that moment when it was actually clicked. Through his this gifted ability he had helped many people who are in need , though it even cost his health . His happy life gets a blow when he comes to know about his father’s death. It is supposedly an accident as his father slipped down their yacht and had a heart attack when fallen into cold water. His mother, father’s business partner cum brother Sunder (Anant Mahadevan), business associate Adit (Rushad Rana) and good friend cum lawyer Anil Sharma (Girish Karnad) were present on the yacht when the accident took place. While Jai too dismisses it as an accident, Habib aka Happi (Javed Jaffery) a whimsical ex-cop meets him and explains the possibility of a murder. Jai in the beginning disbelieves him but Happi tries to bring to notice proofs that lead Jai to believe that it was indeed a murder. Jai starts using his special gift to trace the murderer through that one photograph which was clicked just minutes before his father died. But then two more murders take place and Jai is left stunned. How one shocking revelation leads to other and what “truth” comes face to face at the pre-climax forms the rest of the film.
Starting of the movie is well. But soon slow pace faded down that wellness , though it is intentional to go slow.The premise of the movie & settings keeps on getting more & more grabbing & interesting & some superb shots keeps you binded , It is almost like watching a Hollywood suspense thriller . But the whole premise get crazy free during the last 30 minutes in what appears like a ever lasting climaxWith the big suspense tumbling out and the reasons given by the murderer appearing far from convincing, you stop taking it seriously. But one can admit, the identity of the murderer is indeed very shocking and something that even the biggest of suspense film fan’s can find it difficult to predict. However, even after it is revealed, the film takes too much time to wind up. After a point you lose count of how many dead bodies are fallen.
But that doesn't prevent u from giving credit & praise to Kukunoor who truely deserves it
. His interval point is really grabbing u can almost wish that it shouldn't came at that point
. kukunoor again rocks though this time at a lower note.
Akshay Kumar deserves a bow for taking the risk to be a part of such an unusual project. He has acted sincerely and given it his all Ayesha Takia is back in form and impresses. Javed Jaffrey is simply superb right from his entry to exit. Girish Karnad makes a rare appearance and is good as usual. Sharmila Tagore lends grace to her character. Anant Mahadevan and Rushad Rana are good as well. The actress playing Javed Jaffrey’s nurse ex-girlfriend is natural.
The film hardly has scope for music and thankfully songs are kept minimized. The background score by Salim Suleiman successfully elevates the thrill element.
One can easily go & watch it. He won't feel that his money is been robbed .Movie is a good thriller & a paisa vasool.

so it's worth watching.
hmm then i'll watch it in theater
