’Kehte hain kisi cheej ko pure dil se chaho to puri kayanat use tumse milane ki koshish mein lag jati hai’.Is this not true....????When we are really really crazy about some thing how the things come true?? Just spend few minutes and question your own logics. and I am sure at the end you will be lost in a big ’WHY...&
HOW..’
Om Shanti Om, the movie started with the song “Meri umar
ki nau jawano……..” with Original version picturised on Rishi Kapoor
……….from the film “Karz” and directed by Subhash Ghai.I will not say
that technically the fusion of 70’s and 21st century was
brilliant.There was some problem in picturization however it was an
brilliant concept and good effort effort of Farah.But as far as story
was concern I found no flaws in that. Half the film industry is there
in the film with few scenes adopted from the yesteryear movies.Like
Karz and Madhumati(Dilip Kumar, Vaijayanti Mala)
I dont know on
what grounds people are criticizing the movie..Anyways..U can say..."Ki
Kahani puri filmi hai".. And I am not going to argue upon reincarnation
and so on ..so on..
Plot-
Om Shanti Om tells the story
of Om [Shahrukh Khan] and Shanti [Deepika Padukone]. Om is a junior
artist in the 70s. Shanti is the reigning superstar.He is her biggest
fan. He is in love with her. Om dreams of being a superstar, but an
incident changes his life forever.Om dies in a mishap, but is reborn
into the present day. He attempts to discover the mystery of his
demise…The general feeling is, Farah Khan has remade Ghai’s Karz from
Frame A to Z..False! There’re similarities, but it’s not a rehashed
version of Ghai’s film. For, Om Shanti Om takes you by complete
surprise at several points.
The first twist in the tale [Arjun -
Deepika’s heated confrontation, with SRK listening to this important
conversation] comes as a bolt from the blue. The second jhatka comes
slightly before the intermission, when Arjun takes Deepika to the set
of his film ’Om Shanti Om’ and the entire episode that follows, right
till the intermission, is spellbinding. That’s a brilliant stroke from
the writing[screenplay: Mushtaq Shaikh and Farah Khan] as also the
execution point of view.
When the opulent set is set to flames, it leaves you wide-eyed and awe-struck.
Such is the impact!
The
post-interval portions only get better and better!If the initial
portions are laced with humour [the premiere of ’Dreamy Girl’, the Manoj
Kumar episode, Ghai directing Rishi on ’Om Shanti Om’ song, et al], the
second half moves into a new zone completely.
It’s punar-janam
now, but thankfully, there’re no lightening, no fireworks, no zooming
of the camera on the idols of Gods. The drama builds up gradually. The
voices that SRK keeps hearing, the ’fire’ soon after the ’Dard-E-Disco’
track, the mother [Kirron Kher], an old lady now, chasing Om’s car
[reminds you of Raakhee of Karan Arjun], the flashes of SRK’s earlier
birth while receiving the Filmfare Award the incidents that make him
realize that his life was cut short in his earlier janam have been well
structured.
When Deepika re-emerges as well, he viewer is
confused, but the mystery is resolved towards the end, which, again,
takes you by complete surprise.
Why I liked This One:-
Now coming to the point what I like most about the movie, is the Hidden Emotions.I
am sure Farah had expected to find it on our own.Do we still we need
glorious words and dialogues, romantic scenes to understand what the
story teller want to show.
Just think about it
All of us
have something weird in ourself.Boys , generally , are crazy about gizmos
and gadgets , Girls about abstract things.As a mouthshut member, I am
sure you are crazy about reading and writing.
When I was watching
the movie in each and every scene I was feeling ki "Arey Mein bhi to
aisa hi krti thi."We all are somehow passionate about something or
someone. And If u know yourself,
you must be knowing that most of the time U are thinking about those things continuously ,
talking to someone even not in person ’Unintentionally’.
My favourite scene when Shahrukh was standing at the pool and was talking to Deepika...
People
were laughing at him... And He was feeling like king of the world. When
u really love sumone , you are really crazy about sumthing, People will
categorize you as a Crazy and will give you suggestions and all
that.They will laugh at you .....they will gossip about you.Because
they are not you.They dont know your intensity.
When you achieve it :- You will be feeling like THE KING OF THE WORLD.
When
you dont :- "You just need "A Yanna Rascala...’ Mind IT...!!" But at
the same time you know ki "hamari jindagi bhi hamarihindi filmon ki
tarah hi hoti hai.. End tak sab thik ho jata hai ...Aur agar theek na
hua ho to....."
"Picture abhi bakki hai mere dost"!!....
I
dont know ki Farah really intened to show this through her movie or
not. But while watching this movie I feel this. And I love this. From
the past many years , I was looking for a good movie, And I really liked
this movie.
Songs were amazing. Deepika is really very pretty.
One of her dialogue " jab tum paanch maale ki building se niche akar
apne pairon par khade ho jate ho OM to mein yakeen krti hun , hawa mein
udte ho, paani par chalte ho to main yakeen krti hun, to tumne ye kaise
soch liya ki is baat par yakeen nahin karungi"
The dialouge, It
wasnot that artfully written but the way she delieverd it quite
amazing. And its true.. About love every body know "Love is Blind ".
Same is with other things, we knew Pros and Cons of each and every
thing still we go for our passion.......
Why????? As I said
above...Just spend few minutes and question your own logics. and I am
sure at the end you will be lost in a big ’WHY...& HOW..’
