I am actually jealous of those who didn’t see this movie. And I can’t stop repenting on the two and a half hours sacrifice of my afternoon nap. What did I do to deserve this?? Let us all pray for Vijay Krishna Acharya to develop a better insight on sensible cinema.
(For all those who don’t know who I am talking about, it’s the director of the movie)
Let us come to the characters.
Lakhan Singh aka Bhaiyaji. Played by Anil Kapoor, this was the most irritating character of the movie. For the first time I wanted English subtitles for a Hindi movie!!! What the hell was he saying man. How would you feel if you see Gabbar Singh or Mogambo driving a riksha towards the lead actors to kill them?? Isn’t that stupid? Here you get to see this in the climax when Lakhan Singh, who is supposedly a ruthless don, comes in a riksha and gets killed in one stab by a size zero babe who is all of a sudden possessed by the soul of Michelle Yeoh (crouching tiger hidden dragon)!!!!
Pooja Singh: This one was played by Kareena Kapoor. Her new ultra slim avatar sizzled on the silver and hence was an eye candy for the guyz. In the first half she plays a docile girl who brings Saif down on his knees. Seedhi-sadhi types. Cut-to, a beach, where this supposedly innocent girl comes out of the water in bikini!!! (And guyz start drooling). She sings “Chhaliya Chhaiya..” wearing clothes next to nothing and in the immediate next scene, she is in white suite on the bank on Ganges, for her father’s final ritual!!! I mean common… First she grabs money, sings on the sea-shore seducing all the men in the theatre and then when she’s done with all the spending, she finally goes to Haridwar. Though her performance was good but the plot was pathetic. The worst part was the end, where in the background we have “Tashan hai.. tashan hai..” and the next moment when she kills the villain, the track changes to “Bitiyaaaa…” (daughter) or some crap. No comments.
Jimmy: That is Saif Ali Khan. Whenever you see Saif in a two-hero flick, then we already know “ki boss, saif ka to katne wala hai” and on this matter, the story came up to our expectations. He didn’t have much of an important role. If some lesser actor had played that role then it couldn’t have made much of a difference.
Bachchan Pandey: Played by Akshay Kumar. He was the savior. Its only when he enters the story we can have a few good scenes and a few laughs. So I guess the critics will acquit him. He is truly the best. The only reason one can see this movie.
Well, this just a trailor to all the castigation I can give to the movie. I truly respect individual response to this movie… But as per me, it isn’t worth a 150 bucks ticket.
After the 2 point something hour fiasco, the ending line is,
“Whatz life widout Tashan??”. Hehe.. do I even need to answer that.
