An open letter to Rakyesh Omprakash Mehra (the producer of the film),Dear Sir,
How Are You? Hope everything’s fine.
Well, I have been your fan since Aks released, it was a terrific movie and I loved it like anything. Then came Rang De Basanti, and what to say, it’s a cult classic movie and my all time favorite one. Then you delivered Delhi 6, and though it was not like your previous ones, I found it to be totally sweet lovable film. I loved the way you shown chandni chowk and specially loved Rishi Kapoor’s character. And then, I don’t know what came to your mind and you thought of producing a film and handle the direction to a new person, though I can understand that the concept was fantastic and story could be interesting and one can opt producing such movies and allotting first class performers like Shreyas Talpade, Deepak Dobriyal and Om Puri as central characters, you did great job as producer but the movie fails miserably and this time it’s not audience’ fault, but director messes it up.
Your film doesn’t have ‘s’ of screen play in it moreover unwitty situations makes the can-be-witty film worse. Apart from one or two exceptions, dialogues are too poor, the director Mrigdeep Singh is just succeeded keeping the characters sweet and I believe that’s too due to fine performers. Among actors, Deepak Dobrial clearly steals the show by under performing quite sweetly. Shreyas is fantastic as always and Om Puri justifies his choice. Govinda’s niece Ragini, with her bubbly performance, charms us in a special role and Yuvraj’s father Yograj Sing also manages to do well.
Overall, the film could be a master piece, if screenplay and dialogues could be better, but it even fails to become a decent one time watch. So, if one is not a hardcore film fan, can avoid watching this flick.
Though, sir, Umeed pe duniya kaayam hai... So, kindly don’t avoid producing films with other directors. And best of luck for your next directorial venture with Pratiek Babbar.
1.85 cheers for the film.
Regards,
A film fan – the 70mm idiot Rancho – Hardik Raychanda
P.S. My fav moment of the film is when Happy Sing (Deepak Dobrial) sweetly remembers his childhood girlfriend saying, “hirni thi wo, hirni”, Fancy Sing (Shreyas Talpade) slams: “Abe hirni nahi thi, HORNY thi HORNY” .... :P :D :P :D :P :D
