It was a though choice - Will Smith’s pout or Imran Khan’s?

Ultimately what tipped the scales was that I was getting to see the newbie’s pout for only 70 bucks. So even if I didn’t like it, I could have easily walked out and not felt that my day was wasted, as the show was one of those illegally-houred 8.00 AM ones.

And guess what - I liked it. Not just the pout, but the whole movie. The cast was fresh, each character well-etched out and played convincingly. Although it did look as though Aamir mamu has sat bhateeja down and rehearsed each dialogue/scene/cut/frame/shot/flick of the eye a million times.

*Not for the faint hearted.

Anything and everything you look here is wrong. Catastrophe, I say. Okay maybe they got the wind factor but that’s about it. As a complete Superman buff I am appalled. But then one glance at ex hero no. 1 cum once-upon-a-time politician’s past-present fashion taste (if one may call it so), the above disaster isn’t all that surprising.

And for Ms. Katkar, anything said is less. Well that’s cause there isn’t much to say about her Bollywood career at least. Her stint in the industry was much like blink-n-u-miss kinds but role playing seemed to be her forte – She started off with playing desi ape man’s very much desi Jane and signed off with as the Jhuma Chuma aunty.

BTW I am most offended by the ‘side hip thrusting’ movement in scene 1.01 and ‘I am a bird’ bit in scene 3.16 and the ‘hop-n-squat’ movement in scene 2.36 and, uff dunk it me too grumpy to write further.

[Ps – On a similar note, check out apna Southie version of Thriller. Scary shitts no doubt.]

Screw the above and listen to this. apna man Harry is pissed. According to Daddy Baweja some super forces (Hint Hint: Aamir Khan and Co.) are hell bent on ruining his recently released film and debutant Harman Baweja’s career.

I quote thee.

Our collections are improving but it’s very disheartening that some people are trying to run the film down. They are purposely trying to do so but I don’t know who is behind this. Its sabotage, yes the film may be okay but it’s not so bad.

Super taakatwallas or not (or maybe it’s the revenge tactic of the androids for getting such a raw deal) but one has to admit Baweja Sr. is a mighty modest man. I mean seriously how many Bollywood filmmakers will admit to making an “okayish” film.

Reality check though: Baweja sir your film is not so bad. I completely agree. In fact it is ‘so bad x 2050’.
