Back to Back movies....not in quick succession..but over consecutive weekends. Chennai Express was pure fun...both mindless and silly. No regrets. Saw a SRK movie after long gap. The last one probably was few years back...unable to recall the exact one. Not a SRK fan, but believes in his ability to act in emotional scenes. But overall always believed him to be a hyped and over rated. Being a superstar has its own advantage. People just follow crazily leaving behind the good and bad of the movies. Salman is another classic example of how a bad actor can be a top superstar. He is simply awful in most scenes. The recent grosser movies are insane and become hit because of his star power. Coming back to Chennai Express, it was a fun ride. SRK made spoof of himself in many scenes and for the 1st time i felt he has done well in comedy. Rather I can say, his acting always look comical...but in this comedy, i felt him acting. Deepkia is the main scene stealer. She is incredible in this movie and got a very good footage at par with SRK. Probably seeing her 1st time in big screen as lead actress and totally impressed with her ability and screen presence. Would recommend those who wants pure masti and laughter and don't care for story line or themes.
Must praise Rohit and his technical team for making a one liner story to a 2+hr project and keeping it glued. He has done it again to be in 100+ crores club. Going by the news snippets, it may gross 200 cr plus. Ming boggling. Quite a paradox in indian context. People spend 200+ for a 2 hr watch and spend equal amount on pop corn and snacks, but cribs a lot about few paise or rupee increment in other essential commodities.
Talking about 'Bhag Milkha Bhag'......its a wonder piece. Always believed in the abilities of Rakesh Omprakash Mehra. He is pure genius story teller. Farhan is outstanding..never felt him to be an actor thru out the movie. He as got beautifully involved in the character and presented a award winning show.
His preparedness must have been pain staking. Divya Dutt needs a special mention. She has been one of my fav actress and always wins admiration in what ever role she plays. Sonam has little role as love interest...looks cool and impressive. The partition has been subtly presented without creating much mayhem.
Superb. Truely inspirational. Committment, Dedication and Hardwork are truely recipe for success. MUST WATCH.
NB - Stay away if biopics and long duration movies are not your likings.
