Chetan bhagat, who was on the verge of the pocketing another trailblazer title of a IITian-banker-turned-story writer-turned-scriptwriter has finally stumbled upon the up going graph,,,all coz of not so tight direction and also not so divine story...

YEs thats true the story which makes powerful impact while reading in a cozy corner during one afternoon definately turns into a story full of some times slack and sometimes hilarious ( sarcasm intended) episodes .

The story is of a wannabe team leader of the call-centre group Shyam (Sharman Joshi) who has recently broken off with colleague Priyanka (Gul Panag) who is on the verge of marrying an NRI.On the other hand second hero  Varun (Sohail Khan) has a crush on ambitious Esha (Isha Koppikar) who is another wannabewho wants to make it big in the fashion world. Radhika (Amrita Arora) is a battered housewife and Military Uncle (Sharat Saxena) is estranged from his US-settled son. The common point of interest apart from dances in disc is their hatred for their boss Bakshi (Dalip Tahil) who again is in a another trouble as he has got notice to sack overstaffed office.

Then one night they meet with an accident and while dangling for life, they get a call from God, and the call starts rolling the wheels of fortune with enough divine  preaching on ethics, morals, self-confidence, a la " May Samay Hoon " style .

The change starts happening and all ends well.

The characters of the movie are etched as common as next door BPO workers,, i was in delhi and i can identify Esha and Radhika very well ,,the music i liked !! bang bang i love when not distracted by waxed salman's chest.The dialogues are " cheatanish"and the script is week.

Atul needs polishing .. cant match to Abhishek Kapoor and A. Tyrewala

The star i will give is two point something....

Its bad,,ordinary story, lousy script, bad acting ,worst direction , a complete waste of time.

Having said that i would like to point out the same " anjam" faced by AB senior after doing the fantasy movie Ajjoba and Jdugar.ouch it hurts !! but it should, i am amazed at Ab's logic and sense of judgement, Why he had signed this movie , what he was thinking ,, does he really believe a golden costume with intricte threadwork will equte him with Krish....the movie reminds me of the Mummy and Rudraksh due to  its some sleek sequence.Some sequence are so random ,so bore and so out of place that u want to throw a chappal on screen.

Goldie Behl  last directed Abhishek Bachchan in the box-office flop Bas Itna Sa Khwab Hai .In this movie  Abhishek Bachchan portrays the title superhero role with Priyanka Chopra as his bodyguard. Kay Kay Menon is Riz Raizada, the main villian. The movie is about an orphan Aditya who like Harmen Baweja of Love 2050 iis unloved. A blue petal makes him smile. One day, the blue petal leads him to a beautiful Kada which he starts wearing around his wrist. The Evil Riz Raizada  is a descendant of the Asuras (Demons) who wants to lay his hand on Amrit to achieve eternity. Drona is the safekeeper of that Amrit. ( reminds me of Da vinci code )

Soon Riz recognises AB as Drona. Aditya is saved by Drona’s bodyguard i e oomphy Priyanka .The fight now is between the good and the evil. 

So this is the boring review of a bogus movie . Kay Kay is the clown with such a weird caricature,, its crime to waste such a talent. AB looks Paunchy and his Toond is visible .Priyanka is OK. Jaya bachan is the new nirupa roy,, all tears no acting.The music is passable , The SFx are good but dont go to see just that. ABs hair cut is another lousy thing.

Avoid this movie like a money seeking creditor,, dont even see this in cable

Goldie tu to gaya ...................

Benegal did a RGV Ki Aag here..He made a bland Oat khichdi.

Oat coz it was nutricious for the brain but was dull, borig and unexciting to the sensibilities.This is a movie which really made we want to shout OOOOOOOOOOOhhhh noooo whenever song sequence came.

A cross between Nadia ke Paar and other Kasba wali movies, this movie failed in so many aspects, It was neither funny ( except last scence of illa Arun), nor wholly satirical. Nor village ki neither shahar ki.It lost in between where female characters are illiterate and makes pot or fetch water but during the dream sequence dons Capris and Leather jackets.

Benegal tried to raise some social issues like Bal vivaah, widow marriage,unfair practices in election and democracy. He even tried to copy the story of Shabnam Masi , an ex MLA of Katni whho was "Kinnar".

Shreyas was wasted and so do other powerful actors.Illa is Damn good.

Avoid this one ,, be a durjan and give it a miss.

P.S : How utterly dissappointed i am ....Mr. Benegal and Shreyas u toooooooooo

I went to this movie only for Shiney Ahuja's killer killer smile and alas that was the only thing which was not there.

The movie is from the genre of Action- thriller,, its 80s revisited in a more sophisticated manner what with our hero , an engineer grounded coz of his own past dragons of mistake and deeds, takes entire hijackers single handedly.The fight he fights with hijjackers is actually his efforts to slain his own demons of past.

Dont look for logic please ! It will remind you of "Die Hards" and" Air Force One ", " Turbulance ". But you will eventually praise the ambitious effort of the indian director to try this extraordinary hollywoodish stuff.

Shiney is good ,, he always put lot of labour to execute the demand of the role. Esha as an Air hostess with guts is perfect.

The plot is shaky ,, the terrorist and their intentions are not so well defined , they lack conviction. The movie slides always towards shabbiness, the climax lacks the explosion of sighs and relief from the hijjacked passangers... c'mon they should have shown more gratitude.

All and all okayish movie.. kuch kaam nahi hai to watch it.
