With so much media hype about the movie ; A.R.Rehmans award winning music i was very interested in watching this film which was being hailed as a classic by many.Afterall it was after a long time that people where taking notice of bollywood movies.So i decided to watch the movie ASAP.
When i arrived at the movie hall i thought i was in the wrong place..Most of the seats where vacant & the film was about to start in 8 minutes,strange for the first day first show of such a popular movie’s screening in the UAE.Anyways as the movie started i was somehow reminded of the feel i got when i first watched “Salam bombay”.Though neither the plot was similar nor the concept but somehow i got a feeling of deja vu.
The movie is set in the slums of mumbai;how two brothers escape the clutches of a gangster;how then one of them becomes a gangster himself,How the other gets himself into a gameshow just to get in the eyes of his beloved,how in the end all is well…blah blah blah
the two protaganists “salim & jamal” have done a good job;sanjay manjerekar as the don is a bit irritating,anil kapoor has tried to overdo his role of a game show host(tried to out-do bachans image of KBC),the actress had no major role to play out but her acting was good..A movie you can go watch if you dont have many tensions of your own..surely
The movie is good,the script is good,the music has Rehmans distinct style.On the whole it’s a good watch,but not something you expect to watch for a movie which can go to the oscar’s.I would rate it below films like Rang De Basanti,Dil Chahata Hei,Gajni,Tare Zameen Par etc
I guess if one goes to watch it without keeping in mind that its of the Oscar standards;then its a good movei but going with high expectations will surely let you down..
