It’s always been said that sometimes in somewhat situations v have 2 make compromises for life or for someones. Sometimes these compromises make future enjoyable and sometimes after compromises life becomes only COMPROMISE. The film, Rock On goes on that basic thought only.

Rock on is movie rolling around 4 Frnz, namely Aditya (Farhan), Joe (Arjun), KD (Purab Kohli) and Rob (Luke Kenny) having same passion MUSIC , fight hard together 2 take their band ‘Magik’ to the position of number one . They get d opportunity 2 participat in a competition of Channel V and they won. The music channel also provides a chance of recording of their first album.

But Here the movie becomes diffrent. Here, They have to make compromise few things and the situation takes Joe away from Aditya. Magik gets closed n all frnz split out. Aditya leaves all his friends and turns into a businessman leaving with his wife Shakshi (Prachi Desai)while on the other hand, Joe leaves his wife Debby (Shahana Goswami) keeps himself happy with his guitar teaching his son lesson @ music.Purab settle hislife in some Bla-Bla jewellers n Rob still giving music in ads n work with Anu malik (Dnt get panic..he got very small role).

Story rolls for ten years. One day Aditya’s wife Shakshi comes to know about Aditya’s band Magik and to make Aditya happy, she arranges a reunion party for all his friends on his birthday who were involved in the band. And the reunion gives a rebirth to the band also. They all fight for another chance at the Channel V stage.

Farhan is his best. He has prooved dat he is not only gd director but gd singer(he has sung 4 songs) n actor also. he plays his role perfectly.

Arjun Rampal is at his best performance ever. But sometimes he looks unfare with music. But overall he is best. He has given perfact satisfaction while d ending comes. Purab takes his role very cutely and with some good comments. He is in improvement one after another his movies. And Luke also plays his role with his cool acting.

Music Directors SEL is at his utmost level. They are very much dependable for this type of movies. Music of them takes movie at top level. Lyrics of Javed Akhtar is as always - cool.

Director Abhishek Kapoor has done his work very precisely and viewers can notice lots of hardwork from each frame. He wanted a person who sings the songs in movie as well as in real so it looks perfect. Thus, he catched Farhan. He trained all the actors noticing best musicians so they can look very familiar with their characters.

The movie is @ 2 take second chance bcoz in life everybody cant get second chance. Its like Abbhishek Kapoor, who has taken chance and created the movie at perfect point. His first movie ARYAN was also same type movie. Bollywood really needs these type of movies, directors, concepts and all of these.

Some people says dat ROCK ON !! is just like DCH part 2 n some says its based on some English movie. But frm ma point of view Director, Cast n mainly Music Directors SEL stands positive in dis movie. And they only deserves a standing ovation.

My rating 4 dis movie is : **** (Dont miss at all)
