Too much of preaching please ! No one has the patience to sit through those long monotonic monologues! Its not clear what the director expects. after Rang de basanthi this is the least one expects from him. well well, unfortunately even if you dont have any expectations this one will dissapoint you.
To start with if this one is supposed to be a documentary on delhi, I give full points, no one has ever shown such athenticity in depicting delhi in its true colours.but if this isa movie I wonder which genre it fits into.The whole screenplay drifts into various territores, it looks like the director wants to make a dish out of everything. Dialogues! the next weakest link. rather than being crisp and precise its vague and bores at various instances.seems like everyone loves talking, but mind you the audience wont!
To many characters with too little characterisation! many of them have been wasted.Abhishek bachchan for once doesnt sound like and american born, does act well though! Beautiful music is the only factor that compells you to sit through! background tscore takes us away from the lacklustre conversations onscreen! justice should have been done in shooting the excellent song sequences.
The whole concept of hindu muslim fight and reunion seems so flawed. the overdose of news channels doing their rounds doesnt impress either.And finally the kala bandar as a storyline fails pathetically.
