PK





Cast: Aamir Khan, Anushka Sharma, Sanjay Dutt,Sushant Singh Rajput, Boman Irani and Saurabh Shukla
Director: Rajkumar Hirani
Genre:  Comedy, Drama, Romance


Accept the humor, reject the plot. This qualifies for nothing more than a time pass flick



You may look forward to:

  • Humor angle is the only USP of the flick, which immediately makes it a comedy movie, not otherwise promoted quite as one. But if not for the humor, it would have been difficult for me to stand the rest
  • Aamir Khan did a fair job in trying to enact some creature, which is much more inclined towards fantasy than practically fitting in. Yet he very well manages to make you laugh with most of his dialogues
  • Anushka Sharma looks absolutely pretty throughout the movie, this outlook perfectly fits her. All you need to do is ignore her lips up close :)
  • Sanjay Dutt and Sushant Singh Rajput, has very small screen presence, but loved both of them


What you can sleep over:

  • Saurabh Shukla's role is the one i don't quite buy, off late we have seen many such contexts to depict this kind of role and point fingers to Godmen. Hence, this role doesn't help much in creating any impact
  • Barring just one song shot in Belgium, all other songs were trash



The dampeners you should be aware of:

  • Boman Irani completely wasted, he has a puny role to play, feel sad for him
  • The major turn off of the movie is the very plot. It feels like a B Grade make of the Paresh Rawal starer "OMG". This movie however made to address to the masses, fails miserably in creating any awareness at all. All that audience will take away after watching this will be the entertainment factor only
  • There are too many flaws from the directorial and editorial point of view, and too many overtly exaggerated scenes. Half of them do not make any sense. I expected a lot more from Raju Hirani
  • Post interval movie blemishes the entire build up in the first half. There was a lot of potential to the character of 'PK'. There can be so much more to him than falling in love for a beginner






My Rating: 2.5/5
