When an innocent man aspiring to be a musician is framed for committing a murder, he decides to form a music band with his co-prisoners for a competition, but his real intention seems to be different. The story is set in the backdrop of a jail, with music at its core. Walls might muffle them but cages only reverberate them louder. Situated deep in the heartland of India, within the by-lanes of Lucknow is story of a man who had something to say. Or should we say sing. Lucknow central is a very well directed film though the storyline is very thin, the movie very quickly escalates and takes you right into it but then that is that. Next 2 hrs the movie remains with the same pace until the climax sequence again which will have you at the edge of the seat. <br/><br/>Pros : Direction, Farhans acting ( one man show ), music ( Meer-e Kharwaan especially), Climax.<br/><br/>Cons : Thin story line, needed more nail biting scenes since its about a JailBreak, too many talented artists did not get the room to do much ( Daina penty was amazing in whatever little she had, Deepak dobriyal, Rajesh sharma ) except Ronit Roy who was fab but his portrayal reminds you of all the films that he acted in till now. Very disappointed of what I thought. Who the hell will not escape, if there is 200% chance to escape. <br/><br/>Songs made the movie sick. Lot of songs running in the background. Don't know weather to concentrate in song or movie. No seriousness in the movie. All characters did their part as they were in hurry to finish the movie.<br/><br/>I was excited for the movie but what I got was huge disappointment. Thought something new story and they showed as garbage. I want my life's 2 hours back. Don't go for this crap. Not recommended at all.
