Om Shanti Om (2007)
4/10
This movie is a super-hit,sans any script!
12 November 2007
After all the pre-release drama and hype,it finally comes down to the opening night.Om Shanti Om,tipped and predicted to be the biggest blockbuster of the year,lives up to all the expectations.Earning a mammoth Rs. 19 cr. on the very first Friday,this one's sure is living up to what it was anticipated to be.Very much a Shahrukh Khan potboiler.Farah Khan proves yet again that she is better off in the choreography arena only.The movie lacks a script altogether.But having Shahrukh Khan as an ambassador can do wonders for any waste product,which he surely has done to this flick.Deepika Padukone looks stunning in this one.A nice launchpad for a Badminton champ's daughter,who's bowling over some of the cricket champs in India(not quite literally).Shahrukh Khan may be the most bankable star still,but this movie is no Swades,and so no Oscar rumours this year(and don't I thank all the Gods for that!).An entertainer throughout,go watch Om Shanti Om for fun in the evening,but don't forget to leave your brains at home!
