ghajini movie review- unanswered questions?

funnyboy
By funnyboy

Hi ,

wonderng what u think of ghajini movie . I saw it , and it was terrible . Sad thing is that the reviews in the TV and net are all saying its 5 star movie .
There were good things in that like amir's acting , and ...and others i m still searching ..

Some unanswered questions remained:
1. Remember one of the first half scenes, when initially the inspector runs before the bus for amir, and catches it , how amir suddenly disappears from inside the bus!!

2. This one deserves mass standing : In the movie, the chairman of a very big co. sends his MD and 3-4 more persons , to heroine ( a struggling actress), to ask for avilability of space for ' hoarding on her rented flat?
Now can u beat it?

Many more i m sure , which i missed coz i felt asleep after the first half.

Khan is King and Billu Barber is SrK upcoming and Luck by Chance is Farhaan's upcoming.

Even Aamir's (44+) age reflecting from his face in Ghajini.

Undoubtedly all Great Khans are well dominating the B'wood and big production houses.

Asin is more cute and natural than Anushka

There was a time of Mughal's

When Entertainer (Tawaifs)

Dance to Entertain

and

Dance & Sleep to Entertain

That the difference between

Aamir & Shahrukh

Aamir work on Story to Entertain

Shahrukh even took off his cloths to Entertain

But I am sorry – Still have to struggle to match Aamir Level

After seeing Rab ne bana di.. I realized that I know that girl Anushka personally. She was an upcoming model then in Bangalore..I met her three yrs back..she was a wannabe actress..lol .. She was my cousin's neighbor in Bangalore....she looks cute... but looks more than her age..she is only 22.

For some reason I am losing interest in Kingkhan..lol Guess he is gettin old!

I really appreciate your comments on farhaan, he is no doubt have potentials, talent, courage and confidence to work with all biggies in B'wood...the forthcoming is "Luck by chance" to prove more about his skills.

Recently he is been insulted in one of reality shows on TV by SRK.....'Oye its Friday' on NDTV imagine. He is sincere and a threat to all naked KHANS starting from Saif, Salman, Shahrukh and newly Aamir...hahahahahahaha..

I am not adding khan against them otherwise it reflect on You....just kidding...

By Khanan• 25 Jan 2009 13:56
Khanan

My feelings about Gajhini is as yours..

and re Farhan: He got filmy background, That is his luck , but I like the guy for his talent especially for "Dil Chahta Hai" as a director and his singing abilities in "Rock On", and I like his acting too, much better than our own shirtless and topless Salman Khan and some other known Khans....

CC2C is another proof, still "Story" play an important role in a film to make it "Hit" nor a big buudget or big names.....

late comments: It is purely A grade commercial movie with superb melo-drama, great acting by Aamir, Asin and Ziah. Overall it is a Good movie but not better than RNBJ

as both (Amir and Shahrukh) have talent and reflect in their movies. As far as acting concerned Aamir is better than Shahrukh.

Srk future is in doldrum, being labelled as romantic hero, how to dance around the trees at the age of 43+ with 25- girls.

We should not apply common sense while watching commercial movies, which generally not based on realities.

For e.g. A Chairman of ABC Co, will never go personally to meet a stupid person, who defamed him rather send a legal notice from a lawyer.

Anyways just have fun and Chill (as my kids says)

Khan bhai: re Farhaan, he has a filmy family background to support and appreciate his talent and can afford to do as many experiment as possible, ultimately we are the sufferer.

I m convinced that Gajni was infact the good movie .... after watching Chandni chowk to China(c2C). Another headache in just2 weeks .

I mean , am i getting too critical on our movies?May be not . Coz the plot looks more like ' forbidden kingdom" of jackie chan and the climax fight looks like copy from Kunfu Panda film . and the stupid Dada ! how can he come to save sidhu frm Chandnichowk to China , exactly when the bald guy is killing sidhu? No visas, no nothing .

Now, I prefer to watch gajni instead of C2C, anytime

cheers!

FS...you will have to use VLan player to play it plays all formats (avi, mpeg, mpg, 3gp, wav, DivX, Xvid, mkv-matroska, etc). Get it from:

http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-windows.html

UkEngQatar...the movie is subtitled...even if wasnt ...then too it would be understandable & watchable ...as most of the main dialoagues are in English.....

....In fact an Indian who doesnt understand English will have a hard time understanding the plot rather than the other way around.

and Victor Saab! Farhan Akhtar might not acted superbly but the guy is amazing..Dircted one of the best movie "Dil Chahata Hai" of bollywood, Singing skills are also amazing..He is now "Director turned produce turned actor turned singer"...Of all the 4 Arjun Rampal was the best...

"A Wednesday" is also brilliant...

Saw Gajini...seemed fine...

funnyboy

point 1. Police on the bus:

The police chases the bus a bit...so by the time amir must have come in front to get down.....and since the bus has to slow down quite a bit for a person to get on Amir must have got down (from the front)the instant the Police guy stepped in (from the back).....

The Director of a company requesting permisission:

It would depend on the nature of the person and his ego more so since the flat is in the optimum position. Also since he was at the site its ok to imagine he went upstairs.

Wonder if Gajini was influenced by some other film. If an original then it was well conceived. Definately a cut above the normal Hindi movie.

Saw slumdog millionaire yesterday, after Khanan's review.....was a very good movie. And downloaded the stuff in about 1 hr flat!!!

But I still wonder how Rahman got GGlobe for THAT track!!! The music is good BUT.... I would say its one of his average number. Nowhere near his best ....his best is Roja .....its equally good in Tamil, Malayalam & Hindi.

PR is most important in todays life espcially when life is very busy in mumbai/bollywood....however both Khans are superb in their own ways hence no comparison please!

I saw RNBJ found good entertainment (unrealistic story line), good acting, direction and humming music...we'll watch Ghajini today or tomorrow.

Anushka Sharma seems very confident in her first movie and well deserved the award of female new comer.

Bollywood has shot to a new high, thanks to 'Ghajini'. When booking for the movie opened at a theatre in the UK on Wednesday, the film became the first to gross Rs 200 crore at the worldwide box office. What's more, the mark has been achieved in little less than two weeks. It has grossed Rs 162 crore in the domestic market and Rs 39 crore has come from overseas till Thursday.

An ecstatic Madhu Mantena, the Ghajini producer, admits to being "overawed'' by the record but trade consultant Amod Mehra is apparently not surprised. "The film was very strong from Day 1. It has been galloping like a onehorse race and, in my estimate, it will cross the Rs-250-crore (gross) mark very easily,'' Mehra said.

Bollywood producer Punkej Kharbanda is also not surprised that a Hindi film has broken all previous box-office records. "In the last year alone, there has been a 40% increase in cinema screens and also a rise in the cinema-going population, especially in the age group of 18-35. With most of the theatres recording good numbers on Ghajini, the Rs-200-crore mark is hardly a surprise,'' Kharbanda said.

Ghajini released with the maximum number of prints in India (1,200 digital and analog versions) and it made inroads into even provincial towns where films never get released on the same day as the rest of the world. A trade source said, "The film is set to take over the mantle of the highest domestic Bollywood earner from Anil Sharma's Gadar-Ek Prem Katha.'' In the overseas market, the film is, till now, second only to Karan Johar's Kabhie Alvida Na Kehna.

Ghajini has also reportedly earned Rs 4 crore from gaming rights (a first for a Bollywood film), Rs 21 crore for satellite rights for India and overseas and something to the tune of Rs 10 crore for home video and music

Yes Kareena i am with you always Shahrukh is the best

By Kareena74• 12 Jan 2009 08:43
Kareena74

Amir Khan is really jealous and threatened by Shahrukh. He always tries to release his movie close to Shahrukh's and guess what? Shahrukh always wins.. Rab ne banadi jori was too good.. excellent, mind blowing.. Ghajini was just a normal masala movie.. nothing great about it.. East or West Shahrukh is the best.. The sooner Amir realizes it, the better it is..

I would love to say that this movie was a mix of Fanna and Mangal Pandey :-)
