Bhootnath is refreshing children oriented movie. It is designed to remove the scare of ghosts with children more friendly with the ghost. The communication line opened between Banu and Bhootnath is wonderful
to notice on the Big screen.
There was no hype for the movie or much publlicity, but I am sure collections will pick up in theatres as soon as people realise that it is a good movie. However it is sad that it did not receive Tax free status, so that it becomes affordable for the family to visit the cinema.
The plot revolves around Nath, who is betrayed by his son who has settled abroad against his wishes. In fact the son wanted to dispose off the building wherein the spirit of Kaila
sh Nath resides without salvation. SRK and his family come and occupy the desolated house. SRK’s son strikes a chord with the ghost and calls him Angel. Together they have great moments of fun cleaning the mansion, poking fun @ principal, friends, etc.
The sobered down role of SRK is gr8, no wonder SRK has a changed attitude with AB otherwise one found he was always trying to outdo AB in terms of publicity. The professional rivalry is very much seen. It is good they have patched up for the time being.
Juhi chawla too has dished out her best, because of AB’s presence. Rajpal’s role is excellent as a drunkard, hilarious scene of him being slapped by the ghost is wonderful. Satish Shah’s role being a principal who is ever hungry is good but stupid from all teachers point of view. Well it is gr8 parody I suppose.
The movie has the potential to become an Indian Harry Potter, I am sure if the public laps it up, the second version of Bhootnath will scale special effects and storyline to much higher platform. The public deserves a good film in this genre. AB will be known as a friendly ghost. La casper. The producers can afford to scale up their standards to Harry Potter.
Overall worth watching movie. I am waiting for the second part of this movie to be more high profile.
