BTW, Rishi Kapoor seems a phenom with certain Bolly fans. There are a sizeable number of people who *really believe* that he is a great actor. There was a movie called Chintuji last year with Rishi playing lead. Apparently offbeat. His army of fans is now trying to promote it as the best of last year, most under appreciated etc.
BTW, "sivappu Cheran" Farhan Akthar patri inge irukkum madhippirukriya bolly fans karuthu enna?
I thought Rishi Kapoor was brilliant in Luck By Chance. (And yes, heard good things about Chintuji too.)
And, by the way, I enjoyed '3 Idiots.' Went in with moderate expectations (thanks to the mushy and preachy 'Lage Raho Munnabhai'). But I agree with PR to the extent that I didn't find it as funny as the Munnabhai films. (My problem with Lage Raho was only with its strong dose of saccharine, pretentious message. Otherwise it was mighty funny when it wanted to be.)
Koot. LRM was funny alright. Even the message wasnt a problem but the way it was hammered in...only thing is very few people noticed the pretentiousness, the ordinaryness of the way the message was hammered in. With 3 Idiots, that is happening.
BTW, there is this whole credit for writing issue going on between Bhagat and VVC/Hirani/Aamir. I think I sympathise with Bhagat - most of the material for the movie came from his book, and his relegation to credits behind junior artistes is not fair. The claim that only 2-5% of the movie is from the book is laughable.
I'd go so far as to say that some of the better enjoyable moments were from the book *only* - something I didnt expect at all I would say when I walked into the movie.
Nothing to complain about in Luck by Chance and Rock On.Quote:

Even in LRM, there were some moments where the message giving wasnt a problem - like the initial portions where Dutt barges into the business man's office - the one who mistreats his father - and hangs him upside down from the terrace to drive home his homily. That was funny and the message wasnt a problem in that scene. But as it wore on, it got on one's nerves with the gandhigiri message. One major difference was Boman Irani was fantastic in that movie while in this movie, he is reduced to a caricature.
You mean his acting is tolerable?Quote:

equa, not as a film maker. I sort of was okay with Lakshya although DCH didnt strike much of a chord. As an actor?
