Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi – Beautiful Movie
December 14th, 2008
Heart touching, Humorous, Memorable and Indian. What else we could expect from a Sharukh’s movie?. I loved the movie throughout. There is no first half and the second half. The entire movie makes you go through all the emotions of life and on the top it makes you burst in to laughter.
Hat’s off to Sharukh for dual (double) acting as a simple shy educated state government employee and to a modern funky handsome hunk.
The whole movie was set in the back drop of Amritsar. And Director was good at concentrating on the local language. I must talk about Vinay, dam good acting as Sharukh’s friend. The new actress was at her best.
Sharukh plays a role of a simple, down to earth, educated, well behaved and un-married bachelor who works in a state government office in Amritsar. He visits his teacher’s daughter wedding. Sharukh secretly likes her and falls in love with her. Unfortunately, the marriage ends up in a disaster and because of some un avoidable circumstances Sharukh marries his teacher’s daughter. Sharukh feels so happy that he has no words.
From here the real movie starts to shape up. You can see how Sharukh’s colleagues in office ask him for a party and also how a typical Indian office and its employees act and talk.
Sharukh tries to talk, make friendship and impress his wife who is young, modern, beautiful and intelligent but she is lost in the sadness of her marriage disaster. Sharukh feels bad as he was unable to make her happy. One day Sharukh’s wife sees an advert about a famous dancing competition which comes to Amritsar. She wants to join the dancing classes and Sharukh accepts as he always wanted to see her smiling and happy.
Sharukh goes to Vinay, his friend who runs a saloon and who is a stylist, asks him to change him completely into a modern, energetic and handsome looking guy so that he could see his wife dancing and smiling. Vinay, the expert completely tranforms Sharukh in to a modern, stylish, young and energetic hunk.
Sharukh with his new makeover joins the dance classes and luckily he and his wife become dance partners. His wife really couldn’t recognise him as Sharukh is not the old sharukh but the new modern man. Modern Sharukh tires to flirt with his wife but she clearly tell him that they are just good friends and are dance partners and nothing else. And the modern sharukh (with in himself as a simple shy educated state government employee sharukh) is happy about his wife’s attitude towards other men.
After the dance classes our modern Sharukh again comes back in to himself as the simple shy educated state government employee and goes back to home pretending to this wife as though he is coming from office.
As the dance classes continue Sharukh’s wife falls in love with the new modern handsome sharukh and that’s when our simple shy educated state government employee Sharukh breaks in to tears. He thinks that his wife doesn’t love him but loves a handsome hunk like the modern Sharukh.
One fine day Sharukh’s wife decides to run away with the modern Sharukh and with much pain our simple shy educated state government employee shahrukh decides to end himself and permanently become the modern Sharukh whom her wife likes very much.
For the last time simple shy educated state government employee Sharukh takes his wife to the the golden temple for this last prayers as simple shy educated state government employee Sharukh and to pray for his wife’s good and happy life with the modern Sharukh. But at the same time simple shy educated state government employee Sharukh’s wife realises that the modern Sharukh is not the person whom she really loves. The modern Sharukh is just a beautiful dream. She realises that simple shy educated state government employee Sharukh is her husband who really lover her than the modern Sharukh as he sees Rab (God) in her. And she decides that she will not run away with modern Sharukh.
She tells the same to modern Sharukh. She says that her simple shy educated state government employee Sharukh loves her more than anyone in this world and she cannot leave him alone. Then modern Sharukh burst in to tears but with in himself feels happy as the simple shy educated state government employee Sharukh whom her wife really loves and respects.
And at the end modern Sharukh is no more there. He is gone with the wind and our simple shy educated state government employee Sharukh becomes the real man of his wife’s dreams and life.
Both live happily together forever and even visit Japan for honeymoon.
So, that’s the outline of the story and if you are confused then please do watch the movie. I promise this will be the last good movie of this year that you will remember for life time.
And there is one song in this movie which is close to my heart, It’s “Houle Houle“.
My favourite dialogues:
1) “Agar mein apko rab se bhi jyada pyaar karoonga tho rabb mujh par gussa tho nahin karenge?”
2) Punjab Power ji – Lightning up your life ji
Operation Duriodhana
May 31st, 2008
Operation Duriodhana is a movie that every Indian should watch at least ones. This movie show you how WE – THE PEOPLE are responsible to form a functional government that really works for us and is always there to solve our problems.
The director has clearly stated that its because of US - THE PEOPLE our country is facing all the problems that you hear on news channels. WE don’t vote, WE don’t bother about politics, WE don’t serve our own country. WE are very busy with our job, family and our home. If ever individual looks after his/her own business then what about our country, its politics and its issues. Who would take care of them?
Everyone will say that government and its employees will take care of it. You are right, but when we did not elect our government or when we did not elect the right government then how can we say that government will take care of everything? How can we trust the government that we didn’t elect ourselves? I know, there are too many questions but these are the real questions for the future of our country.
If we fail to provide solutions to these question then our future will suffer like how we are suffering and facing problems.
This movie talks and shows what happens if the right government is not elected. It also explains the importance of using the Right to Vote.
Let me explain the whole movie concept in few points;
- What happens if we don’t vote as an individual
- What happens if the right government is not elected
- How few people in the society sell their votes
- How wrong people enter in to politics and then in to government
I would like to thank the director of this movie for the kind of subject he chose. I am he was not expecting a big hit or a box office hit but he definitely made a difference by releasing this movie. I don’t want his efforts to fade away. I request you to please watch the movie at least ones so that you know the importance of the movie. If you cannot afford to buy the CD then please do contact me, I will be happy to borrow my CD with you.
Let us all act like a responsible citizen of this country and utilise our Right to Vote. Let us all elect an well educated, young and a perfect person as our leader. Let’s do our part as a good citizen of this great and ancient land called India.
”Let’s Vote & Elect the right government.”
Cheers!
