My version of the poster :DThe following text is not exactly a movie review. It is not for those who want to watch the movie in the near future as it will contain spoilers. You can refer this for the movie review.
I watched the movie today. Not among the best movies, but I did like cinematography and screenplay a lot. Though still found story a bit weak, as is the case with most of the bollywood movies these days. The movie-makers wants to show a lot of things, but always lack the strength of story which has to carry everything. I did not find the reasons strong enough for the actions.
This movie is about making of a Rockstar. As it is a bollywood movie, the making of rockstar has to involve a girl. Bollywood people should realise, it is not necessary that you always have a love interest for the protagonist in the movie. I would had been rather happy to see the journalist as the lead lady and our guy could have had some other reason and story. Two reasons for this suggestion - it would had been a nice change, and the other reason, which is a bigger reason, that girl Nargis does not know how to act. Yes, she can improve if she tries, but this performance was not acceptable at all. Ranvir Kapoor is surely going to be a big name in future. His performance was brilliant. He has been superb in all the movies in past too.
It was a good attempt, but at least in my view, the team failed to delivery what it (probably) is capable of, particularly the script writer(s).
According to me, the strengths were:
1) Ranvir Kapoor
2) Screen play
3) Cinematography
4) A.R. Rehman's music
And the weakness:
1) Nargis
2) Weak story and script
3) Total runtime
And yes, it reminded me of Delhi :). In almost all the scenes in the first half, I could not restrain myself from telling the person sitting next to me that this is Delhi Universoty, this is CP, this is where I live (Pitampura :)) and this is blah blah blah
PS: Yeah yeah, the main reason behind writing the complete post is the poster :)
