Couldn't stop myself
from posting this!
This is one such movie
which touched me deeply and left me speechless by the end of 3 hours and 7
minutes.
Shah Rukh Khan can
catch trains and catch a few Girls in the meanwhile! Hrithik can jump over as
many buildings as he wants, Salman can rip all his t-shirts!!! What Farhan
Akthar has brought to this movie is simply extraordinary He surpasses most of
the actors of his league! A complete natural, his acting prowess cannot
be paralleled! Farhan has done complete justice in enacting the living legend
Milka, while he himself is a legend in the making! Rakesh Omprakash Mehra is a
new age director and the duo together has brought the character alive.
The story traces back
to the childhood trauma faced by a simple boy from Punjab (in Pakistan) who
lost his family during partition and struggled to get 2 meals a day. In spite
of all his struggles, mental traumas he grew up to be a legendary
athlete/sprinter India has ever seen! The movie showcases his struggles from
being a street cheat to an army jawaan to a celebrated athlete! One scene from
the movie which requires a special mention is the practice session with the
skipping rope, one can witness all the hard work put into building this
character! It’s a WOWWW!
Go! Go watch his movie
over this weekend!! (No... I have not been paid to write this review! Just
wanted you all to benefit the same pleasure I did after watching this movie!
:-))
Indian cinema is definitely changing and come a
long long way...
