Desi Boyz is hit in the theaters

1. Akshay Kumar and John Abraham’s ‘garam masaaledaar’ jodi is back after six years

2. The director of this comic caper is Rohit Dhawan, son of King of Comedy David Dhawan

3. The music can be heard repeatedly and enjoyed with the same fervor

4. The trailers have already given us a taste of its fun humor

 These four simple reasons are enough to find yourself sitting inside a movie hall playing Desi Boyz. Once the movie begins, begins the audiences’ laughter marathon. Filled with slick humor and amazing punches that tickle your funny bone, this movie is a must watch! Even when the lives of the protagonists are not hunky dory, we do get our regular doses of laughter! Such is the treatment used in the movie, making it an absolute delight!

Team Ra-one Rocks

Shahrukh, the producer, raises the bar for Indian filmmakers who plan to entertain the audience with SFX. That’s because the SFX skills displayed in Ra.One is completely enthralling to say the least. Whether it’s a fantasy world (like in the beginning of the movie) or the real virtual world in the climax, whether it’s a comic scene or a nail biting, exciting scene, every scene just gives out the best possible output. Not even in one scene do we subconsciously realize that it’s all special effects. The credit goes not only to the SFX team, but also the action director and of course the two main riders – Director Anubhav Sinha and Producer-actor Shah Rukh Khan. Hats off to this fabulous team for an extra fabulous output!    

SRK & SFX Rock in Ra-one

The SFX in Ra.One can put the best SFX in Bollywood till date to shame. A scene we cannot skip mentioning is the one in which the entire CST station in Mumbai is blown up. It is spectacular to say the least. Action is extremely well directed, with every stunt seeming to be exciting. And when the action is backed up with the SFX, the output is simply mind blowing! Whether the action is a dream sequence or a real one, whether it is in the beginning of the movie, or the climax, one thing that is common to all of them is that it syncs with the mood of the scene thus reaching out to its audience in all the right ways!

SRK proves it again

SRK, the charmer, is back and how! And this time he has got Arjun Rampal giving him tough competition on the “Wow” factor. Each of them lights up the screen with their sheer presence. Whether it is as the geeky Tamilian scientist or as the robot like superhero, SRK is adorable in both. Although Arjun enters the movie only post interval, his presence can be felt through the ‘faceless’ Ra.One’s body language. Little boy Armaan Verma is a wonderful discovery by team SRK. This bundle of talent can easily share the screen with the biggies of Bollywood without feeling even remotely intimidated. Kareena, as usual, was a pleasure to look at. Her beauty and her acting work together to cast a spell on the audience.

Hollywood style Bollywood serving

Ra.One created a loud buzz ever since it was launched. This buzz just grew louder and louder as the release date drew closer. And now that the whole world can “experience” the enormity of Ra.One, the whole world can together sing the praises of this Hollywood style Bollywood serving!

RA.One-Interesting Scenes

The whole movie is worth applause, but here are some scenes that deserve a special mention!

·         The Tamilian Shekhar enjoys his Chinese Noodles with – believe it or not – curd. A South Indian twist
       to the Chinese cuisine, we guess!
·         Kareena who is fed up of the fact that Hindi uses words like “maa” and “behen” for swearing is all set 
      to release a book full of swear words using “chacha” and “taau” as the subject!
·         The emotional scenes after the death of Shekhar have been kept subtle, yet it sensitively connects to the
       audience without fail.
·         The entire sequence after Chhammak Chhalo is nail biting yet fun and exciting!
·         A scene depicting Ra.One as the mythological ten headed Raavan has been shot with exceptional
      brilliance!

SRK as G.One

As the geeky Tamilian scientist Shekhar Subramaniyam and as the superhero G.One, SRK entices one and all with his charming smile! Though Ra.One comes into the real world in the first half itself, Arjun Rampal appears in the movie only after the interval, but personifies the evilness of Ra.One like no one else. Kareena is ravishing as ever, while the young Armaan ‘Lucifer’ Verma is one big bundle of talent as he doesn’t fall short in any way even when he is sharing the screen space with the superstars of the industry! Even actors who make a brief appearance in the movie give out a praise-worthy performance!

SRK is unbeatable.

Ra.One may not have been appreciated by critics, but there's no blow that anyone can deal to the man behind the costume. I'm not a huge SRK Fan, but if people can applaud novelty brought about by 3 Idiots, then Ra.One brings alive Hollywood's technology on Indian screens. Whenever you think of SRK, what comes to mind is the angle he brings to any genre of movies, and the warmth that he brings to any screen or scene. We all judged Ra.One by the Hollywood standards of technology and expected it to be as emotionally Bollywood-like. Doesn't make sense if you're talking about THIS film, because it stars SRK. Don't blame him for being predictable or emotional. His films have always been that way. Thank him, instead that these fighter, gameshow movies have an element of romance and drama that every one of loves because it's so Bollywood then.

Ra.One Review

The main reason why several people in India like watching Hollywood flicks is because of its fantastic action and impeccable, marvelous SFX. And when the Baadshah of Bollywood decided that he would bring these two main attractions of Hollywood in to Bollywood, we all trusted him no end. 

Now that SRK’s magnum opus is out, people are flocking in to the theatres and coming out absolutely spell bound. There are several reasons for it:

1.       Fabulous songs

2.       Awesome direction

3.       Extra ordinary SFX

4.       Super hero, sci-fi flick

      And last, but definitely one of the prime reasons,

5.       Shah Rukh Khan

In fact, we would say, Ra.One could easily be vouched as the perfect Hollywood serving, with some absolutely delicious Indian toppings!

The 145 crore that SRK invested in this movie is clearly visible as the technology used is par excellence and far beyond anything that Bollywood has seen till date. The action keeps everyone at the edge of their seats. One of the several interesting moments in the movie, is right after the Chhamak Challo song, when G-One realizes Ra.One’s latest trick, and the whole sequence that follows it keeps your heart racing fast!

The action sequences are not the clichéd Bollywood types, but set a benchmark for others to follow! Ra.One has raised the bar for other Bollywood sci-fi flicks. Hope a certain Mr. Roshan takes tips from Ra.One for the SFX and action scenes in his upcoming movie.
