SRK as Barney Stinson? SRK as Jim Carrey? SRK as Elvis Presley?
Honestly, it's a pretty awesome movie satirizing the TRP hungry Indian news channels and opportunistic media and also exposing the corruption of politcians. This did not deserve to flop. It's a highly entertaining film with all commercial elements expected from a mainstream Bollywood movie.
When the news reporter asks Mohan Joshi character on live television how he is feeling as he is about to be hanged is so messed up. What's wrong with Mohan Joshi killing the rapist of his daughter? Nothing. Nada.
There's a portion of the film where the corrupt politicians cause a riot to break out wherein the film temporarily turns into a completely different film with some really hard hitting shots of the riots. The entire riot sequence looks like a documentary.
The romantic and comedic track comprising of Ajay and Ria's initial rivalry, rivalry of their respective media channels, Johnny Lever parts, the one where Ajay and Ria disguise as Japanese/Chinese is absolutely hilarious. The opening scene of Ajay interviewing a expert trying to diffuse a bomb live is so funny.
Coming to the songs, it is one of the best albums of the year. Banke Tera Jogi, Aur Kya, I am the best, Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani are especially amazing. Aur Kya has a connection to Jim Carrey's The Truman Show. Did you catch it?
The title track is a unique satire on the dichotomy of a globalized, progressive and a hopeful India still holdling on to what makes India and Indians unique.
I am actually flabbergasted as to how this film did not work at the box office. There's also thrilling action in this when Ajay and Ria are being chased. Patriotic elements of the film are honestly among the best in Indian cinema. Ajay Bakshi talking to the common man through TV, people coming to the streets to demand justice for Mohan Joshi, a common man who is wronged by power-hungry and corrupt politicians, standing up to the police with the power of the national flag, Ajay Bakshi saving Mohan Joshi at the last minute are goosebumps inducing. It is truly a film ahead of its time.
Oh man, that banana joke 😂😂😂 SRK and Juhi are just so cute together and they also have equal roles in this.
Such films really deserve to be re-released.
