Rang De Basanti


When great minds come together you get to see products like "Rang De Basanti".Rakesh Omprakash Mehra's claim to fame was a box office disaster called "AKS", a poor copy of a hollywood block buster "face-off".With Rang De, not only he erased his previous failure but also made a BIG name with the Bollywood bigwigs.

Rang De Basanti colors the screen thru the eyes of a british journalist who's persistence in documenting her grandfather's journal sees charachters from the past inspiring a bunch of hopeless wanderers.

A movie cannot make everyone happy, Rang De also has its share of "script glitches" but this engaging movie will sway you extreme emotions, will make you cry and laugh and provoke you to be an Indian.

AR Rahman fills Rang De with youthful energy with his uplifting and fitting score, worthy of a mention are the title track by Daler & Chitra and Roobaroo by Naresh Iyer.

Rang de is an all out AAMIR movie, out of the world performance by this khan. Special mention is the scene where breaks down in front of Sue after the flight crash incident. Who ever did the casting for this movie deserves a BIG APPLAUSE. Everyone from Sharman Joshi, Kunal Kapoor, Alice Patten, Siddharth, Madhavan, Soha Ali Khan, Anupam and Kiron Kher leaves their own mark inspite of Mr.Khan stupendous and realistic portrayal of "DJ".


A MUST MUST Watch on the BIG SCREEN.

well.. i personally found it too irrational.. killing a defence minister shows the security of the country in a very bad light.. moreover DJ is just a urban delhi version of aamir in dil chahta hai.. i really cannot help but wonder what the hype about patriotism is all about.. its plain simple vengeance on part of 4 good for nothings on behalf of their friend.. and hey man the whole thing about comparing with revolutionaries was too irratrional... moreover if you think that this movie is original try watching "Jesus Of Montreal"
