Rating: 1/10 (21 December 2008)

OK. This is certainly a colossal waste of my time but I need my voice heard...but before that..Is there provision for me to get a refund?
What a Long, Boring and Silly Bollywood Flick. Before I start, here are a few recommendations...
1. Salaam Bombay (Go watch it!) 2. City of God (As pointed out by many here) 3. Kite Runner
So there are parts of the movie that can be credited to the director esp. for getting great work out of the slum dwelling kids. The Music director (fyi: Bombay Dreams) is certainly well known in those parts of the world and being familiar with his work, the music was certainly not his best till date.
-The director seems to want to showcase the flora and fauna of India and in a matter of minutes, there are camera shots of the hill stations in southern India to the desert in the western part - all on the same train?
-The protagonist in the film, seems to have captured the attention of millions of people, yet after he has successful won the show, manages to sit at a train station - completely unnoticed?? Really?
-The policeman sits in his vehicle, as someone stands in front burning? Huh - Am I to assume the impression is that somehow the law enforcement is to be played out as a joke?
I am at a lack of words to express how silly this movie is! Go watch it if you still want to kill your brain cells. I am guilty of it.
