Tea party!
The big Nagre respect's some guy named Rao. He's a very important person to the big Nagre - probably the only man in the world that Nagre look's upto. So, when the actual twist of this movie occur's, it doesn't go down to well in my book's because my thinking is straight - if Rao know's of Nagre's respect toward's him, he can simply say to him "listen mate, make my grandson into your party's leader!" and I'm sure, as generous as Nagre is toward's the 'Marathi logg', he'll be even more generous to the guy who taught him the way's of life!
Film's like Race, Tashan, Heyy Babyy, Partner, Om Shanti Om, Welcome etc - you can easily get away with silly scene's, flaw's, loop's yet when you have a off beat film such as this and the main twist is flawed, it doesn't leave you satisfied with the whole enterprise. If you want audience to believe that Rao planned to use this 'Sheppard power plant' against the Nagre family to get his grandson the 'Tea party seat', then to be honest, that's quite laughable!
However, the performances from the main three are very good, with Amitabh, obviously, stealing this one - I was really disappointed that in some part's of the film he does a disappearing act but comes back for the finale. Some will say that Aishwarya Rai Bachchan (phew) has a small role but she look's the part, act's the part convincingly. Abhishek is fine here, yes, a little over the top but then again, it's Abhishek! The supporting cast is rubbish, apart from the guy named Rao.
Music is just noise in this film and that to annoying noise! case was nearly the same as the first one but here the noise is something unusual - sounds like Dog's barking!
Ram Gopal Verma need's to find a cameraman and cinematographer who can actually do their job's properly - these funny dizzy angle shot's with light flares are nothing but Stupid, which do not help the film's cause at all. Some of the angle's reminded me of that junk he made last year.
Oh yes, how can I forget - the great action scene - drive into a electricity post, so it fall's, which will set a couple of tree's alight on fire then take your two accomplices with reload gun's and shoot the whole gang out. Sadly, the fogged up cloudy direction by a Dog named Ramu, you barely see this 'convincing' action scene.
Some scene's are done really well, where the Dog named Ramu actually redeem's himself - take for instance the scene of the bomb blast, Aishwarya's first meeting with Amitabh, Amitabh explaining to Aishwarya about Rao's doing - even though the explanation is a load of lard but it's executed well. We also have a lesson of the Doggy's way of thinking - if your wife is killed tragically, don't worry, start expressing your feeling's for a blue eyed lass.... a great world that doggy Ramu lives in, sadly for some of us that scene is 'Chaval' and 'puke worthy'!
The best scene of this year so far, happen's to be a particular death scene - Amitabh and Aishwarya's acting here, is magnificent. The scene heartbreaking as it is, made even superior by Amitabh acting and dialogue delivery added with Aishwarya's break out. Loved every minute of this scene..... CLASS!
Ramu - nice try, but too many loop's, still better than your last year's antic's
Comic scene - Aishwarya become's the 'Sarkarni' - that itself is quite funny, however the follow up is just 'too good yaar' - she turn's her head as if she's Dawood Ibrahim and put's on a deep husky voice and state's "EK CHAI LAO" HAHAHAAAHHAHAAH - Thank you Doggy Ramu, great scene - laughed all night.
