CLERK My fav movie, my fav scene. Review on Clerk

The question would be poised to many reading this article why they are doing so, or why in the first place I took the effort of writing a review on a simply outdated, forgettable movie ''CLERK''. Well I would like to draw you attention to another side of this great masterpiece, although unplanned.

For starters the movie could be described as a collection of unplanned errors which infact can only leave you laughing your head off or investing in a new TV set (as most of u would almost shatter the current half way through)

The movie describes the life of a simple man ''MANOJ KUMAR'' who progressively works his way to save the nation. The worst ever screenplay and casting u would come across.

What would you say if Manoj Kumar (60 something) is shown romancing in college with 2girls . The guy is a hit in college having all talents from singing to flirting to fighting with girls drooling over him.

(Hey lord why you didn’t make me like Manoj).

Anyways so this great stud becomes a DUD when he enters the common struggling life and is employed as a clerk. He is invited to his Boss part (why who knows) and is requested to sing a song. (Everyone knows he is a great singer). Rekha who was his fiancée turns out to be his Boss wife. (Boss is Shashi kapoor70 something=30yrs). The song is never ending with lyrics like “Roj time pe office jaato hoon, kaam kata hoon phir bhi pagar nahin bachti”. (God save)

Anyways there is lot of other messy things. But hey did I forget something. There are many unforgettable golden scenes in the movie.

My favorite is the Ashok Kumar one.

Ashok Kumar suffers from Heart attack (4-5th I don’t know)

He tells Manoj Kumar to get a Doc. Manoj arrives frustrated after few minutes. Ashok ( still in Heart attack, I seriously hope all the people who get Heart attacks have this much time as Ashok Kumar) asks what happened.

Manoj in his traditional styles replies '' Dhikaar hain un Doctoron pe jo Feeeeeeeeeeeeshhhhhhhh Maangte hain''.

Ashok tells '' Koi baat nahin beta main apna ilaaz khud karroonga tum tape recorder chaloo karoo''.

Manoj asks someone to get batteries for the tape ( How come he has money for batteries but not for Doctor). Anyways the batteries arrive and Manoj puts on the tape. Ashok still going through heart attack listens to the song.

The song is '' Kadam Kadam Badhaye Jaa''. It goes on in painstaking fashion for few more mins and suddenly Ashok crawls, stands towards the tape and shuts it off. Manoj is flabbergasted he asks what Happened.

Ashok says '' Ab main acha ho gaya hoon beta ab hum sab milke gaayenge”. And they all sing together as I burst my TV set

This is just a trailer. The movie has lots such follies

So if u has an eye and the belly to digest it, gets a DVD, catch up some friends potato chips and hey.........Don’t blame me
