Kasam Paida Karne Wale Ki

This is exactly the kind of masala revenge thriller that Bollywood churns out by the dozen, and "Kasam Paida Karne Wale Ki" does nothing to distinguish itself from the pack. The premise—weak protagonist transformed into an avenging son, corrupt uncle getting his comeuppance—is borrowed from a dozen films before it, and director Satish Kumar (working well within his comfort zone of mediocrity) treats it with all the nuance of a sledgehammer.
