Last Sunday, I watched much awaited movie Rang De Basanti at E-Square in Pune with my friends. I wanted to see this movie mainly because of the amazing music played by A. R. Rahma. The movie starts with great words “Jo desh ke kaam na aaye woh bekar jawani hai”. It means “Those who are not serving for the county are rubbish”. It is not a movie like any other hindi masala movies. It is tooooo different.
The first half is a jollyride and the cinematography is excellent. I liked the boozing (on the top of the well), screening the Delhi univesity students and jeep riding scenes very much. The music by A. R. Rahman is awesome. Eventhough it is played mostly at background, the scenes couldn’t have the reality without it. The scene when song “Lukka Chhuppi” played at background makes us cry.
Some movies enjoys us at theatre only, but this is the movie which makes us think for a long time. I think all actors have done a excellent job. I thought Aamir would get more importance than other actors in the movie. But director Rakeysh have considered all of them equally. Madhavan even in a small role fits well. Madhavan death in Mig crash brings a chunk in your throat. Because the film was going fast with a great enjoyment until that scene, but after that film turns in a very different mood. Aamir and
Atul Kulkarni have done a strong performance. Sharman makes you laugh at his every scene, even in his last scene. Kunal Kapur as Aslam and Siddharth as Karan both have performed well. Some scenes of Siddharth are too good. Soha Ali Khan reall fits in the role and you can see her finest performance. The entire film seems so real…nowhere you can find the cine masala…even in the fight or dance scenes.
The message it gives to people is that there are two kind of people, one who accepts the reality and lives without complaining it, the second who fights against reality to make it good. This is the kind of movie which comes after many years. It’s too different.. A must must must watch movie.
Yes….The Generation awakens.
