And both the movies have an obsessed grandfather and a guilt-ridden cop who failed to solve the case in the first go. Both have the element of a kidnapping being repeated in a similar fashion. Both the movies involve a trio who are trying to solve a kidnapping incident. Industry’s best actors Amitabh Bachchan, Vidya Balan and Nawazuddin Siddiqui coming together in one film. Three people team up to solve the case: the grandfather, who lost his granddaughter right in front of him, the mother, who has been searching for the person who abducted her daughter fifteen years ago, and the detective with a guilty conscience, who puts everything into this long-unsolved case.Īs is evident to anyone, this sounds a lot like what 'Te3n' promises to be about. Te3N is a suspense thriller set in Kolkata.

In 'Montage', fifteen years after an unsolved kidnapping case, another kidnapping takes place using the same method on a similar target. The trailer and the basic plot of the movie seems to have drawn a lot of inspiration from a 2013 Korean movie called 'Montage'. TE3N (2016) Description: A grandfather, police officer and a priest join hands to investigate and find a missing child. But 'Kahaani' isn't the only movie it bears resemblance with. The movie has something of an eerie deja vu like feel to Sujoy Ghosh's 'Kahaani', which also starred Balan and Siddiqui. The dark and gripping trailer tells us the story of a man whose granddaughter died in a tragic kidnapping incident. It’s a rare contemporary item to have licensed its sleuths to pursue their leads through Google, rather than the now-standard “FastFindz” or “Netlook”.The trailer for ' Te3n' is out and the Amitabh Bachchan, Vidya Balan and Nawazuddin Siddiqui starrer already looks like a potential box-office success. A touch tentative – the work of an industry straining to mature in line with its audience’s tastes – but creditably committed to a new realism. The pulse quickens with a mid-film ransom drop, and skilled playing shepherds us through the twisty second hour. Yet Dasgupta’s playing a reasonably intricate long game. The first half proceeds at such a crawl, even the songs sound like somebody’s last gasp. We’re watching Bollywood respond to grimtertainments such as True Detective – hence director Ribhu Dasgupta’s lugubrious, lights-off aesthetic – while wondering whether Te3n (pronounced “theen”) has taken on too much baggage.


R iffing, Se7en-like, on the Hindi word for three, this remake of 2013’s Korean thriller Montage splices together a disparate trio hunting a long-gone girl: grieving grandfather Amitabh Bachchan, guilt-racked priest Nawazuddin Siddiqui, no-nonsense cop Vidya Balan.
