Shahrukh Ka Om Shanti Om

Om Shanti Om has proved be a greater hit than Saawariya. The review that it has got is good and better than Saawariya but it has not turned out to be as it was expected. The movie’s total credit goes to Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika. A Farah Khan movie has lot of expectations but when she has Shah Rukh Khan she need not worry. After the first show of the movie, most of the people said that it was Shah Rukh Khan who made the movie a big hit. The major attraction of the movie was SRK with his six-pack which drew most of the crowd to choose between Saawariya and OSO.SRK told CNN-IBN in an interview ‘So far I think people have really liked it and they are loving it. But I could be completely wrong. Though, normally I am not wrong. I have been a part of many good and successful films’ and isn’t he right? Most of the people are only talking about SRK. Well, so most of the credit goes to SRK.

Om Shanti Om is better than Saawariya

Om Shanti Om is based on the idea of incarnation. It surely is more lively and interesting than Saawariya. The opening of Om Shanti Om was really good. The advance bookings of both the movies were good but according to the people who watched the movies most of them felt that Om Shanti OM was better than Saawariya. The vice president of fun republic said that ‘Om Shanti Om has an edge over Saawariya this weekend but Saawariya too has opened up well.’ Vinod Mirani who is a film trade analyst says that Festival season is benefiting both the films, but eventually the better will sustain and Om Shanti Om is a better bet and mass appealing’.

Cold War between Amitabh Bacchan and SRK

Amitabh Bacchan and ShahRukh Khan are not on good terms with each other. The Big B of Bollywood is angry with King Khan for some unknown reason. The two of them don’t seem to be very happy on meeting each other, it looks like more of a cold war between the two. Recently at the Police Fest which was held in Andheri Mumbai has both these stars present and Amitabh Bacchan was seen sitting with his son and Daughter-in-law, However when ShahRukh Khan entered the function with his Om Shanti Om team it caused irritation to Amitabh Bacchan for some reason and he didn’t even bother to look at SRK. Not only that but when King Khan held out his hand to Mr. Bacchan he just got up and left. Now! That’s very bad. Isn’t it?Well, the reason behind the cold war is not known but we are guessing that it might be because Mr. Bacchan is angry with Sharukh for snatching away his film Don. It was also said that this was the reason why Mr. Bacchan did not call Shah Rukh Khan for his Son’s marriage? Well, we cannot say anything more than that so, let’s keep guessing…….. .

Best Actor And Actress 

My Take on Best Actor  goes to Sanjay Dutt in LRMB. He’s a veteran, his performance was understated yet thoroughly believable. He IS Munnabhai and no one else could essay that role the way he did.Other nominees: Aamir Khan for Rang de Basanti (good but he’s not going to attend the awards anyway, so what’s the point?), Hrithik Roshan for Dhoom 2 and Krrish (maybe for Dhoom 2 but, I don’t know, he’s just off-putting for me), Shah Rukh Khan for Don or KANK (Amitabh’s Don is irreplaceable and SRK needs to stop signing K.Jo’s films).

Who Actually Won: Hrithik for Dhoom 2Incidentally? Aamir Khan won the Critic’s Award for Rang de Basanti. I don’t believe he showed up to receive it.

My Take on Best Actress goes to Kareena Kapoor for Omkara. This is surprising because normally I can’t stand the girl. But when she has the right role, girl knows how to act. She was brilliant in this.Other nominees: Aishwarya Rai for Dhoom 2 (that wasn’t acting, it was hackting), Bipasha Basu for Corporate (maybe, but I think her performance lacked the punch that could’ve made her a serious contender), Kajol for Fanaa (I’m happy she’s back but I wasn’t enamored of her performance, she can do better), Rani Mukerji (how IS she spelling her name these days?) for KANK (yawn, same old, same old – a great actress in a boring role).

Who Actually Won: Kajol for Fanaa  (understandable given that Kareena won the Critics Award for her role in Omkara)

My Take on Best Supporting Actor goes to Abhishek Bachchan for KANK. He was KANK’s one and only beacon of hope. He was endearing, convincing and effortless in his role, and it really wasn’t that great a role. Our Aby Baby’s come a long way and he deserves all he gets. AB over Hrithik ANY day. Other nominees: Amitabh Bachchan for KANK (the man is a legend, he’ll be nominated every year), John Abraham for Baabul (he was wooden, sorry), Kunal Kapoor and Siddharth for Rang de Basanti (both were great, but not as great as Abhishek).
