Movies are of two types – the memorable ones, and the ones who earn big money at the Box Office. Aamir Khan during his conversation with Karan Johar on Koffee With Karan said, “I want people to get satisfied. Box Office doesn’t matter.” He later asked Karan about his favorites movies in time, and their Box Office collections to prove his point. Ironically, Mr. Khan, though Dhoom 3 will go on a record-breaking spree, will make huge money, the film is not that great.
All Dhoom 3 has: are over-the-top performances, tons and tons of melodramatic scenes, especially where Sahir, played by Aamir Khan, recalls his past story, which is full of loopholes. Yes, it does have lots of action, lots of VFX, but since we are exposed to Hollywood, all that doesn’t impress anymore. When will Bollywood filmmakers realize that it’s not always about the style, there has to be a story, a really powerful screenplay. And, when will Bollywood understand that songs in such movies are nothing but speed-breakers. What’s the need to spend 5 crores on a song, which makes no sense at all, neither it is catchy, or has any other value. Instead, more money needs to be spent in scripting, scripting, scripting and only scripting
Conclusion:
Dhoom 3 is just another overrated film. It doesn’t live up to the expectations.
