n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

The movie started off on a decent note but never knew that the second half would be so bad , avoid it !

Fever, a thriller by Rajeev Jhaveri, sticks to its punch line 'Be Suspensed'. The film begins with a few disclaimers in the beginning. One disclaimer explains the title i.e. Fever is an expression of inner rage. Another disclaimer explains the overall theme of the film i.e. the only animals hurt during the making of the film is frail egos. One more disclaimer is : Life is a combination of Facts and Fiction, which one starts when and which one ends when, it is difficult to make out. The film fever will leave you with the same feeling. Throughout the film, one can't figure out when the fiction and facts get interspersed. Even the last scene would leave you in doubt. But probably, the film maker's intention was the same to leave the audience – 'Be suspensed' and 'Remain in Suspense'. The film begins with Rajeev Khandelwal stranded on road, and sitting there absolutely shattered. He narrates his past with a girl. According to him, his ordeal started 15 days back, when he met with an accident. He was thrown out of the vehicle by Gauhar Khan. (I would come back to reveal the characters' names played by Rajeev and Gauhar later in this review). Rajeev finds himself in a hospital, and realizes that he is suffering from memory loss. He is just able to recall that his name is Armin Salem and he is from Paris. From Dr. David Roy (Victor Banerjee), who was treating him, he learnt that Armin was taking the name of Rhea in his unconscious stage. Background song also tries to explain the journey of Rajeev's character as a contract killer. Frames move to the scenes after the accident and his memory loss. In the hospital, he gets disturbed to see a girl Gauhar Khan, fights hard to remember that how he knows her, but fails to recall. After getting discharged from the hospital, he finds Gauhar staying nearby to his accommodation. Her sight itself disturbs him. Gauhar introduces her as Kaavya Choudhary. Armin often gets haunted with the sight of his murdering a girl. But he is unable to figure out who the girl was and why he ended up killing her. Armin is not sure of his identity. Sometimes he feels he is Karan. He is also shown as a writer.The film does move further but leaving the audience in a struggling mode to figure out and differentiate facts and fiction. Rajeev's character is Armin or Karan? What exactly Rajeev does – writing or contract killing? What is Gauhar's relationship with Rajeev? Who are Rhea Wagnor (Gemma Atkinson, British TV Star) and Irina Caro (Caterina Murino, former James Bond Girl) in the films? How Rajeev's character is linked to these two characters in the film? Armin's frustrations of not knowing self, fighting hard to remember one's own identity is indeed very well projected by Rajiv. Gauhar could also add lot of mystery to her character, which was required by the plot. She justifies the role. Both Rajiv and Gauhar are good actors and look good on screen, but somewhere, this film is not able to bring out the best from these two actors.The film does project the relationship going wrong. When love becomes obsession, love dies. It is important to give space in one's relationship. The film is shot in beautiful Switzerland. But I am still wondering why this film is titled as 'Fever'. As the disclaimer defined it as an expression of inner rage, the film does have characters' inner rage coming out. Somehow, this film does not appeal.Fever sticks to its punch line 'Be Suspensed' and asks you to 'Remain in Suspense'. The end leaves you disillusioned figuring out and distinguish between facts and fiction.

I am so ashamed I am writing this review. Curiosity killed me. Or, rather, curiosity killed my 150 rupees. I was curious about what Bond girl Caterina Murino (Solange in 2006's Casino Royale) was doing in a Bollywood film. That was why I went to see Fever. Also, the film looked sleek, what with all those gorgeous Swiss locales and all. I was deceived quite easily. I ended up sleeping through a nice part of the film before the interval. The film hardly made any sense in the first 30 minutes. This, together with the air conditioning in the multiplex, made me sleep. A loud noise just before the interval woke me up. I realised it was a very badly composed background score. For once it is hard to believe that the background score has been composed by Ranjit Barot! But that is how bad Fever is. Except those Swiss locales and some beautiful photography nothing else is good in Fever. But why am I praising the cinematography? The camera-work is good, but, in the end, everything is just like some beautiful picture postcard from Europe. In fact, when a range of logos of European travel firms and Swiss government organisations is displayed right after the censor board certificate and the no smoking ad, you know what is in store: A Bollywood-style promo of Swiss tourism. Caterina Murino has a you-blink-and-you-miss-her role, but the most heartbreaking thing about Fever is Victor Banerjee's role. The veteran actor has only a short and absolutely unimportant cameo. It looked like they needed just a star or a big-name actor to do that cameo➖hence, Victor Banerjee. And better to say nothing about Rajeev Khandelwal, Gauhar Khan, Gemma Atkinson, and debutante Ankita Makwana. I read somewhere that Gemma Atkinson is a big star of British television. What kind of fever compelled her to act in this Fever? Seriously, Fever is just a 127-minute-long, made-by-Bollywood commercial for Swiss tourism featuring six big and small celebrities from India and abroad. I have given Fever 2 stars out of 10. One star is for the guts of the makers of this film who believed that they could get away with making such a joke of a film. The second star is for making me fall asleep, for the first time in my life, in a cinema hall! Yet, Fever is still far better than another film I saw on this fiction/reality theme: the Arjun Rampal-Jacqueline Fernandez-Ranbir Kapoor-starrer, Roy. I could still sit - even sleep - through Fever. In Roy, I just walked out in the interval and did not return for the rest of the film➖the film was so unbearable!

A Very good movie for those who are Fan of good thrillers.If you Love thrillers then you should watch it once,and Rajeev Khandelwal is such an actor who always gives you worth of watching him so its a good watch by my side the story is plotted around a contract killer whose life gets changed after an accident he lost his memory in that and just he remember from his past is some scenes and some girls This movie has a good starcast Indian Delight Rajeev Khandelwal ,Ronaldo's Ex girlfriend,and A Bond girl and these are surrounded by good Indian actors like Gauhar Khan. Movie contains hot sex scenes between Gauhar and Rajeev and chemistry of actors is excellent.there are slew moments when you thinks about what would be the next The problem is the speed of the movie movie takes a sidle speed but the climax is the best part of movie so if you want to watch go and watch ....
