Another review!

Well, it's been a long time since I've posted anything on my blog and it's looking in dire danger of gathering cobwebs. And hence I'm making this post at the danger of making this blog seem more like a place where I review trashy movies.

I went and watched 'Humko Deewana Kar Gaye' last night. It's heartening to see Bollywood move to greater complexities in their storylines. The quadrangle in this tale as opposed to the typical Bollywood triangles is definitely a step in this direction. So we have a story of Akky Kumar being engaged to Bips and Katrina Kaif being engaged to Anil Kapoor. Akky and Katrina ain't too enthused with their respective to-be-loves-of-their-lives. Through a series of stereotypical highly predictable 'coincidences' they keep bumping into each other which only leaves the viewer wondering as to exactly how small is that city where they live. This much is covered in the first 40 mins of the movie. The remaining 2 hours is virtually irrelevant to the storyline.

Now, if any one of you has any doubt as to the final outcome of the movie, I'd say that the movie has been tailor made for you and you absolutely positively definitely must watch it. Also, if you're stuck in a city which does not believe in English movies and has little else sources of entertainment, (such as I am) then also you may opt to go and watch it. For all else, your time is too valuable for this.
