I'm just back from the theatre and this is one helluva movie. Om Shanti Om redefines the words/phrases 'unique', 'class of its own', 'out of this world' and a lot more.
Farah Khan!! after Main Hoon Na, i really didn't want to see another film by you. I now owe you an apology.
Shahrukh Khan is his usual best. Being the lover boy is his core competency and he proves that to the hilt yet again.
Deepika Padukone is not merely eye candy. She is a terrific actress considering that this is her first bollywood film. The innocence on her face is remarkable and blends perfectly with her role.
The comedy is spot on, if you will attune yourself to it. Yes, its very important that you read the movie.
The art direction is superb. The intelligence that has gone into some of the scenes is commendable. A pat on your back Mr. Sabu Cyril
To think about it, there's nothing else special in this movie, but the way everything gels together, thats a masterstroke and thats where i shower praise on Farah Khan and the Editor, Shirish Kunder An out and out entertainer. Don't expect this movie to make it to a hall of fame, don't expect it to make its way to movie literature and don't expect this movie to get you thinking....coz Om Shanti Om is just a fun ride..enjoy it, forget it
This movie WILL NOT find acceptance with the rays, the Benegals, the Coppolas, the Scorceses, but frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn! (u'll know what i mean)
Go watch it!!
Concept 8.3/10
Performance 8.5/10
Technical 9/10
Screenplay 9/10
Overall 8.6/10
P.S Special mention of Farah Khan, who so deservingly always introduces the brilliant people behind the cameras at the end of the movie. These people are evenly responsible for making a film what it becomes.
