Such a snoozefest. Review on Hello

Chetan Bhagat Bhai.Im sure you never knew this was coming.The total debasement of what was at least an ok book. I guess you should have waited for Rajkumar Hirani to make a movie on five point someone first. This movie is a dud.a turkey and a wannabe film all in one go. The movie features Sohail Khan, Sharman Joshi, Isha Koppikar, Amrita Arora, Gul Panag, Dalip Tahil and Sharat Saxena in key roles with Salman Khan, Arbaaz Khan and Katrina Kaif in special appearances. My first bone of contention.Besides maybe Sharman Joshi and Sharat Saxena.Everybody is miscast. Imagine Sohail, Isha, Amrita and Gul as early 20 somethings working in a call centre. The movie does not follow the book in its entirety.To begin with Salman Khan is a rockstar and fills in for Chetan Bhagats part in the novel.BTW he goes shirtless in the opening number.Going by the promos and trailers I thought Salman had a big role in the film instead of a cameo.enuff said. Katrina plays God.ha ha.well at least she looks good.

Hello revolves around six call center representatives/agents, Shyam(Sharman Joshi), Priyanka(Gul Panag), Esha(Isha Koppikar), Varun(Sohail Khan), Radhika(Amrita Arora) and Military Uncle(Sharat Saxena). There are two things common among these agent friends, one is that they work for the same call center and the other is, all their lives are screwed up in their own respective ways. Add to all this the boss from Hell played by Dalip Tahil.The boss who will take credit for his subordinates work and will go all out to screw their happiness.Tahil unfortunately comes across as a buffon and is unintentionally funny. The solution to their woes.a call from GOD!

Sharman as the main character Shyam who is a loser who is also about to loose his love(Gul) in marriage to an NRI is excellent.Sohail has a lot of cool dialouges too and does some justice to his part.Gul is absolutely wooden.Isha looks weird.She plays the role of an aspiring model who works in a callcentre as a stopgap.Ps.Note to Isha.please change your dress designer.you look awful partly due to those whacked out silly clothes you've been made to wear.Surprisingly Amrita Arora has worn proper clothes(as in is fully dressed) in the movie and has shown some promise in the acting department.Sharat Saxena does a competent job of the ex-service guy who now works in a call centre. The screenplay is half baked.the direction is tacky.

Atul Agnihotri the director should have stuck to acting.oh wait he couldnt really act either. This film is a sure shot looser at the BO with no chances what so ever. If you have an option of seeing the movie or staring at a blank wall for 3 hours take the second option.
