Goldie Behl take a bow, because it takes some courage & lion's heart to make a debacle of the likes of 'Drona' & I mean it when I say this... After seeing this movie, I seriously get the impression that Goldie has been reading out 'Harry Potter & the Goblet of Fire' to his lil' son as bedtime stories, because most of the ideas...oops sorry all of them are a straight take away from one or the other obscure yet famous children fantasy story book. Right from Jaya Bachachan harbouring a 'Harry Potter'ish scar on her forehead thanks to her on-screen & off-screen son to the 'King Arthur' like sword finding scene which invariably has a 'Merlin' look alike in the scene for god knows what reason. To add to this the movie has again a very very very strong influence of 'Dementors' in it... Probably Goldie & the entire crew were 'Demented' during the shoot of this movie; I mean come guys, Bollywood cannot be this bad yaar...
It seems Goldie Behl was on a 'Help-yourself-menu' of movies wherein he was given the liberty to take shots not even scene from any which he wants, put them together in a cauldron & make something which is not even remotely good enough to be called a 'movie'. You know what, talking of "Drona' its easier to talk of what's not copied or rather inspired than the other way round. The special effects, which could have the saving grace for this movie were any thing but impressive. Goldie Dear, you need to understand that when the special effects are a straight take off from 'Mummy Returns' you need to match the standard set by your foreign counterpart or else you would dig your own grave, which incidentally you did. Boss, whoever putting money into your projects must be donkey rich or doesn't know what to do with his money or probably you are an 'out-of-this-world' marketer. And guess what, it doesn't end here, there are the most amazing props I have ever seen in a movie. Like for example, purple coloured, glittery stone studded conch, some f*^ked up place called 'Razpur' or some shit like that which has a colour combination which could frighten the living daylights of 'Voldemort' fluorescent orange, red, blue, green & God knows what colours. Goldie the least you could have done was contact Asian Paints if not a set designer to save up on money...
Now for the actors, Jaya Bachachan has given her most 'Stony' (in the literal sense) performance ever. She looks like a airy balloon who's been eating to drive away the depression of separation from her son for 20 years. And who ever said Priyanka Chopra would be Bollywood's answer to Lara Croft... Whoever taught Priyanka 'Gatka' needs a tight 'Phatka'... She's anything but convincing in this movie. As a matter of fact, Abhishek seems to her bodyguard instead of the other way round. She keeps wielding the most amusing tools to drive away the goons & looks horrible at best. And now for the Drona aka Abhishek Bachachan, he's sporting the most amusing dress, is very bad with his action sequences & looks terrible in the movie. My sincere wishes to both our protagonists to make it big with 'Fashion' & 'Dostana' Because if they don't they would certainly be the 'Damsel in Distress'...
The saving grace of this movie is 'Rez Rayzada' aka Kay Kay Menon who' been impressive to say the least. Although his looks were certainly not 'Severus Snape'ish of 'Voldemort'ish still was convincing enough to hold onto the audience. The movie however can certainly expect some awards later in the year which would be:
1. Best Couple Award
Abhishek Bachachan & Devdut, the horse for their amazing camaraderie & unbreakable relationship (people who saw the movie would understand)
2. Best Actor
'Bauji' for a off screen performance which will set a benchmark in Indian Film Industry.
Any more awards if you would like to suggest, please suggestions are welcome...
