Bollywood never makes the movies that I want to watch. My ideal movie would star Altaf Raja singing his soporific songs, his wife then gets frustrated and kills him. He is then reborn as Himesh Reshamia and comes back and avenges his death in the previous birth by singing to her, and she dies of a ruptured ear drum. Now that’s a movie I’d pay to watch.
Instead, we decided to go to this “Rab Ne Bana Di Joodi” movie. Watching the promos, I thought the story would be something like this: SRK has a daughter who is not getting good marks in her college, so he puts her in a dance class, and she wins consolation prize. The End.
But NOOOOOO! The heroine, who is indeed young enough to play his daughter, is actually HIS WIFE, and the movie is the same story as a 1960′s flop-movie-love-story. The movie theatres should introduce a new feature, where at the security gate, you can leave your intelligence and innate sense of logic, because god forbid if you carry your common sense into the movie theatre, it will try to hang itself watching this movie. The central point of this movie is the assumption that the heroine cannot recognize SRK without his pink glasses. I mean, COME ON!
Instead, it seems, SRK keeps making these same old same old love stories that nobody really understands. His appeal has now dropped below Mithun Chakraborthy’s, as is evident from Rab Ne Bana Di Joodi. This movie is just a remix of his last movie “Om Shanti Om”, with all the remotely interesting parts removed. It features the same endless song featuring a bunch of bollywood celebrities, the same jokes that were used in DDLJ and the same my-monkey-is-constipated “emotional” scenes that have become trademark Shahrukh Khan fare. If you ask me, SRK’s stock is at an all time low, and he should now just liquidate his assets and go into retirement. If he instead keeps making these movies, the government will have to bailout us, since watching this movie will certainly send you into a personal emotional recession.
You have been warned!
ROFL @ “my-monkey-is-constipated”
Its a nice tranquilizer movie …. after u r lunch….. atleast I had a good sleep. Even the heroine couldn’t keep me awake ….
That’s true. Hey, I have an idea. Maybe they should sell sleeping pills along with popcorn at the theatre!
“you can leave your intelligence and innate sense of logic, because god forbid if you carry your common sense into the movie theatre, it will try to hang itself watching this movie.”
dont think there is a better way to describe it…movie starts off with a decent premise but ends with SRK shouting in a 500 pound sumo wrestler’s ear, lifting his leg? without the fake mooosh falling off? what ifff what iff (spoiler) the heroine saw rakhi sawant instead of SRK when she opens her eyes, looking for “rabb”?? ridiculous movie, total NO brainer with over the top branding of (parle)- ji…..
You wrote a movie review of a bollywood chick-flick when they were having Miss World finals….
Go and see the doctor dude…. something is terribly wrong
Another point here.
Eq 1: Rab Ne bana Di Jodi -> Movie Title ..
Eq 2: Tujh Mein Rab Dikhta Hai -> One of the songs in the movie…
Basically by eq1 and eq2 , it clearly explains the below lines u quoted.
“you can leave your intelligence and innate sense of logic, because god forbid if you carry your common sense into the movie theatre,it will try to hang itself watching this movie.” .
“Bollywood only Miracles no Logics” LOLZ
Thanks for the warning !!! I am going to watch the movie. I have the “Who dares to do?” kind of spirit.
Awesome…and yes bro, I take tht warning seriously. I just watched Ghajini a few days back. It was a complete disaster, you would really love writing a 3 page review on it. Eagerly awaiting, if ever you dare to watch it.
P.S- Ghajini makes me think of a Rajni, with 8 pack abs.
Oh My God! I am _NOT_ going to watch Ghajini dude. I think my brain will hemmorage and quit on me if I ever go watch it, listening to all the other people who already have watched it.
Aditya,
It isnt too bad as u have explained…. If a film has at least one message for the audience then I think that film is successful….( need not be a hit movie )..
The message it has delivered is,
‘If you cannot marry the person you love, then at least love the person you marry..’
I knw ur’s is a love marriage ( + arranged ) (
) so, may be you wud hav changed your opinion if ur marriage had been just arranged one… 
Ha Ha… Nice Review
Weldon, great written.
Man,
I am a great fan of your writing…keep doing the goodwork
regards
ganesh
