Ram Gopal Varma Ki ************

If the title is not self explanatory, then your are dumb enough to last for 3 hours of this movie. Yeah I am right, only people without brains can survive this mockery of the epic.

Some of the adjectives to describe this movie will be "annoying, frustrating, time waste, wastage of money, pathetic display, mockery etc etc". I have never ever seen people walking out of theater during interval form a Amitabh's movie, but then Ram Gopal Varma's genious has made that possible. Truly, he is a genious. And he should be given credit for several reasons.


He claimed that his favorite movie is Sholay so as a tribute to that cult classic he has taken this project which seems more like making a mockery of the old. I don't know how Amitabh reacted to this project. Well, he'll say that it was a different experience and working with Ramu was blh blah blah but then the fact is that the age factor is creeping into his system. Yeah he is well past 60 right? It shows in the movie.

The man who wrote dialogue for the movie should be forced to watch this movie 2 times in a go without any interval and I am sure he will die of brain damage or perhaps would never take any writing project again. The same punishment should be inflicted on the entire crew of Ramu. He should be thanking to god that his movie company is not public or the public would have rightly rewarded him by bringing his stock prices to unprecedented low levels.

Dialogues are so pathetically written and so pathetically enacted that you are left with no other options than to scratch your hair. Half the theater was empty after the interval and those who were there were begging for the "basanti ka naach" which was not there and then everyone left. Those who survived the movie were just to justify their expenses.

Don't watch this movie, if you are a true Sholay Fan. Watch that movie again instead. But yeah is you want some skin show and some wild camera angles, go waste your time and money.

All the best.
