Raj...naam tho suna hoga?

Remember the name, you'll be screaming it out in agony 2 hours into 'rab ney bana di jodi'. To call the plot line wafer thin would be highly complimentary. As my four year old summed it up "there's a Shah Rukh with specs and a Shah Rukh without specs". And this is Aditya Chopra's latest opus (should I say flopus?). Three hours of Shah Rukh at his hammy best, terrible music, old, old jokes and repetitive song sequences...the man must think that the average viewer has the IQ of a concussed troll. Puhlease. Grow up. People actually watch slick, well made movies these days, Mr.Chopra. The only bright spark was the heroine who was believable as a small town girl (instead of the usual glam-zilla, who doesnt' look like she can be from anywhere on earth).

While on the topic of bad movies, can anyone tell me what's it about 'dostana'? Did someone say, guys, let's make John Abraham and Abishek kiss and then we'll figure some story around it??? I think the world has seen enough of Kiron Kher as the overacting mama. And what a waste of Boman Irani in such an insignificant, mindless walk on role. As usual, cinematography and style have taken the place of acting and script. Priyanka Chopra looks sensational and raises her eyebrows cutely in an attempt to act. Save it girl, neither the director nor the story demands it.
