DIL BOLE HADIPPA REVIEWED



Dil Bole........ is a movie which elicits mixed feelings after watching it.It is neither too good not overtly bad. It has its fair share of celebration and also the drawbacks.

BRIEF PLOT
Anupam Kher is an ardent cricket fan who likes to compete with his Pakistani friend every now and then in cricket matches in which 11 men represent each one of them.
Anupam Kher has been perpetually losing all the battles since many years as his team always find reasons to lose by playing below par cricket than his counterpart's team.
Shahid plays the son of Anupam Kher who plays in the English county as a very senior player who is called by his dad to resurrect the lost fortunes of his dad's team. As he arrives in India from UK,Shahid falls for Rani Mukherjee whom he loathes at the first site. Meanwhile Rani is a different girl who aspires to achieve big in the cricketing arena despite the odds.How she tries her luck in getting into Shahid's team by feigning being a sikh and brother of Veera (Rani) forms the rest of the story.

POSITIVES
1.Shahid and Rani form a great pair and their chemistry oozes out on the screen.

2.Rani is her acting best and so is Shahid.

3.The situations intended to be funny are funny.

4.The colours look simply wonderful to the eyes throughout the movie.

5.Rani playing a male Veer is superb.

6.The music is in synchrony with the story and keeps you entertained.

7.Anupam Kher and his Pakistani friend are brilliant.

8.the story will be loved by romantics and Yashraj followers who shall be treated to eulogies of Yashraj films in various scenes in the movie.


NEGATIVES
1.The story is extremely predictable.

2.No particular sequence is well developed and less time has been given to all and thus scenes change the moment they pick up their show.

3.Skimpy outfits make you wonder how it can be called a family watch?

4.Same old it all happens well in the end in sport movies cliche is at you again.

In toto it is a fine movie which will be loved more by those who believe in romantic flicks and light entertainment. ILL GO WITH 2.5/5 FOR THIS ONE. Save your money by taking this one from me.

  6. yea hardik thanx for your endorsement. i completely agree with you. her speech was right but it lacked the context. its a family film alright but it needed a zing to make it look more captivating and a piece of reality injected to it. happy that u agree with my rating
