REVIEW OF MNIK.....


BEFORE U READ THIS...YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND TWO THINGS:-
1.THIS REVIEW IS UNBIASED.
2.ANY RELIGION TEACHES HARMONY.HUMANITY,INTEGRITY.

IF THESE TWO BASIC THINGS ARE CLEAR LETS PROCEED.

KARAN JOHAR BRINGS TO YOU A CINEMATIC EXPERIENCE FOR WHICH YOU NEED TO BE A BIT INTELLIGENT...BY THAT I DONT MEAN THE MOVIE IS NOT FOR 'DUMBOS' BUT THAT YOU NEED TO BE OPEN TO ALL IDEAS AND THOUGHTS AND BE ABLE ENOUGH TO UNDERSTAND THE NUANCES OF A PARTICULAR SCENARIO.THE MOVIE IS A ROMANTIC MOVIE...ITS FOR LOVE ONLY THAT THE BACKDROP OF 9/11 WORKS AS PERFECT SETTING....THE MOVIE HAS A STRONG MESSAGE-'REPAIR ALMOST ANYTHING'....THAT IF SERIOUS AND DEDICATED WE CAN REPAIR EVERY MISDEED AND ANY AMOUNT OF HARM DONE TO US!!

KARAN JOHAR DELIVERS BANG ON TARGET...HANDLES AUTISM,TERRORISM AND ROMANCE WITH EQUAL AND DELICATE CARE....I PERSONALLY NEVER EXPECTED THIS KIND OF SUPERIOR CINEMA FROM KJO BUT HE HAS SUPERCEDED ALL EXPECTATIONS....THERE IS NO TYPICAL CANDY FLOSS ROMANCE BUT THERE IS A MATURE ROMANCE WHICH DIRECTLY CONNECTS TO YOU...THE DIRECTION IS THE HIGHLIGHT SO IS THE CINEMATOGRAPHY BY RAVI CHANDRAN...KARAN RAISES THE BAR FOR NEXT BOLLYWOOD VENTURES...IT HAS AN INTERNATIONAL APPEAL....A CROSSOVER FEEL...YET IT DIRECTLY QUESTIONS YOU ON YOUR STAND AGAINST TERRORISM AND WHETHER IT HAS ANY RELIGIOUS FLAVOUR TO IT OR NOT?TAKE A BOW KARAN FOR SUCH A MASTERPIECE...DIRECTION IS FABULOUS,...SCENES PINCH YOUR HEART...BRING SMILES ON YOUR FACE...HITS IT HARD WHERE NECESSARY....ALMOST FLAWLESS!!!!!

SHAHRUKH KHAN:THIS MAN ALWAYS PROVES HIS CRITICS WRONG.IN FILMFARE AWARDS 2008 HE HAD REMARKED ON HIMSELF 'SRK CANT ACT SAALA!' BUT LET ME TELL YOU FOLKS....THE MAN STEALS THE SHOW....HE IS SCINTILLATING....HIS AUTISTIC MANNERISM ARE 95% BANG ON TARGET....EXPRESSIONS ARE SO WELL AMALGAMATED WITH THE DEMAND OF THE SCENE....THIS MAN DELIVERS THE GREATEST PIECE OF ACTING IN HINDI CINEMA IN RECENT TIMES.....HE GETS YOU ENGROSSED IN THE MOVIE...IT TAKES A BIT TO CONNECT TO HIM BUT ONCE YOU DO HE SWEEPS YOU OFF YOUR FEET....HE IS CUTE...HE IS INNOCENT...HE IS SIMPLE...HE IS DETERMINED...HE IS AUTISTIC!!! HE CANT BEAR NOISES...CANT BEAR THE YELLOW COLOUR...HE CANT INTERACT SOCIALLY WITH THE SAME EASE AS YOU AND ME BUT STILL HIS INTERACTION CHANGES THE COURSE OF HUMANITY AT LEAST IN THE MOVIE....SRK DELIVERS IN AN UNPRECEDENTED FASHION...STEALS THE SHOW WITH THUNDER AND THE CONSTANT APPLAUDS THROUGHOUT THE MOVIE...THE DEAFENING CLAPS WERE A TESTIMONIAL TO THIS...HE SINGLE HANDEDLY ELEVATES THE MOVIE TO AN UNFATHOMED HEIGHT!!!!! TO ALL SRK FANS AND NON-SRK FANS TOO...GO GRAB IT...ITS A MOVIE OF A LIFETIME!!!!!

KAJOL: I DON'T NEED TO WRITE MUCH...SHE IS THE PERFECT MATCH TO SRK'S BRILLIANT ACTING...EVERY SCENE WHICH HAS HER BECOMES SUPERLATIVE....SHE IS VIVACIOUS....LOVING... 'REAL'. SHE IMPARTS THE PACE TO THE MOVIE....HOLDS THE SCENES TOGETHER....KNITS THEM WITH SHAHRUKH TO PRODUCE SOMETHING EXTRAORDINARY.SHE IS A SINGLE MOTHER... THE MATURITY WITH WHICH SHE HANDLES THE ROLE IS THE HIGHLIGHT OF HER ROLE....SHE MAINTAINS HER INDIVIDUALITY INSPITE OF SRK'S SCRIPT BACKED ROLE...THAT ITSELF SHOWS THAT SHE STILL CAN SET THE SCREEN ON FIRE...HER BREAKDOWN AFTER A COLOSSAL PERSONAL LOSS IS A SCENE TO WATCH....SHE TROUNCES UPON SRK ALSO IN THAT PARTICULAR SCENE....SHE IS LOOKIN MATURE...PRETTY AND OF COURSE HER ACTING HISTRIONICS SUPPLEMENT SRK'S FABULOUS ACTING.....TAKE A BOW KAJOL!!

NOW IN GENERAL....THE MOVIE IS AN AWESOME EXPERIENCE BOTH IN TERMS OF ENTERTAINMENT...AND IN TERMS OF MESSAGE CONTENT....KARAN HAS MIXED THESE TWO IN AN UNPARALLELED FASHION...ITS LIKE OIL AND WATER...BOTH RETAIN THEIR INDIVIDUAL PRESENCE....SCRIPTWRITING IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF A MOVIE AND I MUST SAY SHIBANI BATHIJA HAS LEFT A BENCHMARK....CAN ANYONE BEAT THIS WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE? THE MOVIE MOVES YOU....QUESTIONS YOUR STANCE...REFLECTS THE CORRECT MEANING OF ISLAM...HITS THE TERROR ISSUE HARD WITH ITS WONDERFUL APPROACH....KNITS HUMANISM....MAKES YOU CRY...MAKES YOU SMILE AND AT THE END LEAVES YOU AMAZED AT THIS EXPERIENCE OF A LIFETIME...SRK'S ACTING IS ALMOST EQUAL IN TERMS OF QUALITY TO DUSTIN HOFFMAN'S IN RAINMAN.... THE MOVIE SHAKES YOUR WRONG BELIEVES...ENCOURAGES YOU TO MAKE GOOD ONE'S.....TELLS YOU THE REAL DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PEOPLE RELATE TO THEIR GOODNESS AND NOT RELIGIOUS BELIEFS....THAT BEING A MUSLIM IS NOT A DISADVANTAGE.....THAT THE FIRST CASUALITY OF TERRORISM IS INNOCENCE....THAT THE SAME INNOCENCE AND SIMPLICITY CAN WEAVE US TOGETHER....THAT DEATH AND LIFE...TEARS AND SMILES ARE EQUAL FOR EVERONE...THAT EMOTIONS ARE IMPORTANT...EMOTIONS BIND US TOGETHER!

SRK IS NO MORE A 'RAJ'....HE IS RIZWAN KHAN NOW.....KAJOL IS NO MORE 'SIMRAN'...SHE IS 'MANDIRA NOW....BOLLYWOOD WONT REMAIN THE SAME AFTER THIS MOVIE....IT WILL CHANGE FOREVER....SRK TAKES THE WEEKEND BY STORM....I THINK SHIV SAINIKS SHOULD BE GIVEN FREE PASSES TO WATCH THIS MOVIE...THEY BETTER LEARN FROM IT!

RIZWAN...MANDIRA...SAM...ZAKIR...MAMA JENNY...FUNNY JOE...ARE GONNA REMAIN FOR LONG IN YOUR MEMORIES....WONT COMPARE IT TO 3 IDIOTS AS COMPARISON CAN BE DONE WITH RAINMAN AND A BEAUTIFUL MIND.....

LAST WORDS:WATCH IT ASAP.....IT WILL FORCE YOU TO THINK...AT THE SAME TIME YOU WILL CARRY A GOOD FEELING HEART BACK HOME.....BOLLYWOOD COMES OF AGE....KUDOS TO KARAN...KJO...AND LASTLY TO THE SCINTILLATING KHAN...RIZWAN KHAN!

MY NAME IS ANUPAM ANAND AND IT WOULD NOT HAVE MATTERED EVEN IF IT WAS ANUPAM 'KHAN' COZ I WANNA BE GOOD AND NOT A HINDU OR MUSALMAN!

'WHEN THERE IS 'ALI' IN DIWALI AND 'RAM' IN RAMZAN...I AM BOTH A HINDU AND A MUSALMAN....GOD BLESS!!!!!
