directorrajesh bachchanicasthussain kuwajerwala anjali patil science fiction still remains a genre less exploited in bollywood and its primarily for dearth of aptitude over lack of audience in such scenario any film that can handle the genre reasonably well is worth acknowledging shree might be low on production and star value but is at least high on concept level the story is of shree hussain kuwajerwala an average middle class man struggling to make ends meet in mumbai and marry his girlfriend sonu anjali patil one day a businessman offers him big money if he agrees to give 12 hours of his life and participate in an experiment unaware of the experiment or its outcome shree is lured in by the money and gives his consent when he wakes from the experiment he realizes that he has multiple murder charges on him and is running away from the police the most important part for a science fiction is to make its fictional element look credible and to a certain extent and at its level this film does manage to pull it off revealing the scifi element here would be a major spoiler but thankfully it isnt something that is logistically demanding or calls for advanced special effects so even within the confines of its modest budget shree doesnt have anything to lose or compromise in fact the scifi element is just used as a pretext to initiate a suspense crime drama where the protagonist has to prove himself innocent of the criminal accusations against him debutante writerdirector rajesh bachchani succeeds in blending these two genres and weaving an interesting narrative out of it at instances the film reminds of hollywood science fictions like source code and groundhog day but shree isnt a blatant remake and has a story of its own however beyond the storytelling the film leaves a lot to be desired on the technical front the cinematography and music are quite tacky also somewhere the direction lacks finesse and slickness then the film employs some intentionally idiosyncratic characters like the villain sidekick who speaks in chaste hindi for no good reason and seems unintentionally funny hussain kuwajerwala makes a confident big screen debut and pulls off his part quite convincingly anjali patil however is too loud shrill and irritating in the most chaotic character in the film others lend adequate supportshree is an experiment that seems a little ahead of its time more than anything else it brings a hope that the genre can be explored more resourcefully in future till that happens try this one not bad at allverdict good
