KO & Ayan - a 'loose' connection

KO & Ayan - a 'loose' connection

Disclaimer: This is not a review or criticism. Just an interesting fact which felt like sharing.

As many know Ayan had a storyline which goes almost like this – a young man attracted in smuggling carrying movie cds, other valuables except drugs. In the end everything turns around and he decides to join customs for his mother.

The hero is also a movie buff. In a scene one of his friend comes to him asking help to impress a director (who has come to buy foreign film dvds) by recommending some movies according to the situations required for him. Bank robbery was one situation the director asks and the hero recommends some titles.

Now coming to KO. The opening scene of the film is a BANK ROBBERY!!!
Also Pia’s character speaks to a director on phone. The director asks her to give five star in review of his movie which has a story line of ‘a young man attracted in smuggling carrying movie cds, other valuables except drugs. In the end everything turns around and he decides to join customs for his mother.’

K.V.Anand (director of both the movies) has presented an interesting ‘loose connection’ in these movies (just pun intended). After the success of KO, K.V.Anand has become one of the smart & talented directors who whose films are worth waiting for. Great going…
