'Ki and Ka' is 'Abhimaan' inverse. But it's the inversion that makes it the movie it is. Breaking social mores was, is, and will never be easy. Breaking those that deal with gender roles is perhaps the most difficult.
No wonder the film grossed modestly despite bankable stars and major release. R. Bal'Ki' deserves a big hand for attempting it. I shall skip commenting on its artistic merit just for this reason. Suffices saying that Kareena Kapoor does justice to the role and Arjun is by now creating a niche as a lazy looking actor that can hold the audience, but not impress.
