billu barber reviewed

Parmesh billu barber is a hackneyed bollywood potboiler meant for raking in the moolah in d crunch. no wonder SRK epitomises bollywood wid his gimmicks galore


well the initial few sequences seem to be a dias for SRK to vent his ire on his detractors who bring controversies wid each release of his. some of his potshots are entirely sarcastic.d 1st half an hour or so gives a good feel to the muvee but fails to set d tone up for d muvee. irrfan khan is brilliant all thru. lara dutta has improved her acting skills manifold. the 2 children are simply adorable & hard to ignore, lighting up d screen wenever dey talk to deir dad irrfan. asrani is good and natural. rajpal yadav continues his overacting but u like him in a few sequences until he indulges in excess. om puri needs no praise, he is marvellous as ever.the mainstay of d muvee is irrfan and not SRK. irrfan;s theatre experience reflects on screen. the role of owner of d guest house is played superbly and also the principal and d scool staff of irrfan's children add realism to the muvee. SRK also does well to remind d world dat alls well in d industry and dey are a family. he also diffusessome tension between him and salman. to add reality to d film Sahir khan or SRK is shown to hav been a part of films llike dil se and chak de india.the muvee ends and starts happily

and now d negative points which outnumber and muzzle d positives hands down. 1st i wud like to ask priyadarshan or d costume designer as to how come lara dutta a villager's wife wears bare back blouses in such a nondecript environment. 2nd an advice to SRK to plz make believable sequences. he is a superstar alright but 20 body huards or even more besieging him is unbelievable. his landing in a helicopter is not believable. 3rd how where and wen did d 3 actresses kareena priyanka nd deepika cum in d muvee? dey disappear jus after d song completes which is hard to digest. 4th the songs have been completely wasted. 5th u dont take d music and d muvee home as a memory(though i saw it at home aim sayin dis for d multiplex people).
a typical shah rukh muvee wid a deluge of all d bollywood cliches or masal flick as dey say. 2.5 on 5. SRK is recommended to be more realistic as he is shelling out films which have aspects completely defying reality. after rab ne and oso dis his 3rd "unreal"
SRK is himself found wanting in a serious scene which he fails to emote well. dats wat happens wen self vaunt is hailed.
