‘Painful Time waste of 3 hours!’ was one of few highlighting remarks of viewers after watching much awaited movie of Aziz Miza who had distanced himself from movies after death of his wife. Aziz, who earlier has directed movies like Yes Boss, Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman, Chalte Chalte, Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani previously did not choose SRK this time for the role which he wanted a teen looking guy so who could have been a better choice than new lover-boy of silverscreen Shahid Kapoor. a lot of hype was created by media about the movie as its return movie of veteran Aziz Mirza and there was curiosity about chemistry between Shahid and Vidya Balan who looks much older to Shahid. Movie was being seen as one of the big release of the year and industry pinned its hope on the movie with crores of business at stake.
Movie is about an architect Raj Malhotra who is devoid of any luck in his life as whatever he put his hands into, culminates in failure though he is a very talented architect. Being a topper in every walk of life, he still does not find luck favouring him on any occassion. His friends believe he would grace the cover of the Times Magazine in 3 years. 5 years pass by and Raj is still struggling for his first big break.
So frustrated Shahid is told by an orator Hasina Bano (Juhi Chawla) that a lucky charm will change his luck entirely and so enters Priya (Vidya Balan ) who is fighting for the survival of a community center. Raj’s luck takes a U turn and he, while romancing with Priya grabs a deal with Om Puri to build a shopping complex. Problems start when he finds out that place where he is planing to build shopping complex is the same community center which Priya is fighting for its survival.
Movie is trademark Aziz Mirza’s light romantic comedy but unlike his previous movies Chalte Chalte and Yes Boss, it completely lacks the execution which ruins the otherwise good movie. No balance in romance and comedy, very ordinary dialogue delivery, technical flaws and average music are the main features of the movie. Shahid is ever evolving and he does good typical SRK role with impressive balance while Vidya is just OK. Juhi is superb as usual so is Om Puri in their short roles. Nothing else is there in the movie for viewers. Even the concept of lady luck has lost sheen as it has been repeated in a number of movies.
Do not spend 100 or more bucks on this movie unless you are not going to watch the movie in the hall
(lover’s!! listening??) or you are fan of Aziz Mirza.
Rating- 1.5/5
