Entertainment in David Dhawan Style
4 April 2014
Warning: Spoilers
MAIN TERA HERO - We all know what type of movies David Dhawan make,,,,there has been an era of David Dhawan,,,,,,when he and Govinda and sometimes Anil Kapoor and Salmaan khan makes us rolling down our seats laughing........Shola Aur Shabnam , Aankhen , Biwi Number 1 , Judwa , Mujhse Shaadi Karogi and Partner has been my favorite .....Up to partner it has been OK ..... But after that his last three movies,,,,Do not Disturb , Rascal and Chasme Baddor are too bad.........But with Main Tera Hero he came back,,,,but only to some extent..... The era when David Dhawan was a successful director was different,,,,i was a child,,,,and i don't care much about the story line or intelligence of movie,,,,i only use to laugh to the one liner jokes and overacting by Govinda (Govinda was the only actor in Bollywood who looks good while doing overacting)...... But now the time has changed,,,,as for my self i need some intelligence in the movie along with entertainment.....Its not good to just take a silly story ,, create a confusing situation (by confusing i means the characters in the movie are confuse,,,,and audience is the person who actually knows everything) and insert good jokes in between them.....In such case what happens that while u r watching the movie u will enjoy it when jokes are cracked,,,and to some extent the movie looks a Paisa Wasool,,,,but u r not satisfied with it..... Personally m not the audience who like much of the nonsense comedy movie,,,,but Main Tera Hero is not a total non sense movie,,,,still there are parts where u will think that the movie is trying too hard to make u laugh...... There are a lot of resemblance of Govinda and Salmaan khan will watching Varun Dhawan.....And i think David Dhawan has got his Govinda part 2 .... I will not be shocked if there will be a movie again in quick time made by David starring Varun.....And why not,,,,its an enjoyable combination ,, but i just request David sir to concentrate more on the story and not just showing his son's talent in the screen...... Varun Dhawan has his own attitude,,,,he does everything with attitude,,he dance , he fight , he speaks , he even runs in attitude,,,,and many times it looks like he is doing a lot of show off ,,,, let me give u an example,,,,,in student of the year in between every song there has been some parts where Varun dance alone to show how good he can dance,,,,,,,the same thing happened in this movie,,,,he over expose his dancing qualities in songs,,,,which only adds to the length of the song and also give wrong impression,,,,somebody should tell him,,,,if u have talent don't showoff,,,,it will come out automatically......In spite of all those show off,,,,Varun has acted well,,,almost like Govinda of 90s ,, and let me tale u to copy Govinda style of acting is not a easy work..... Illiana has acted well,,,,she has done more than 2 dozen of Masala movies in south ,, so to act in this movie was a cake walk for her....Nargis is a bad actress,,,,or u can say she doesn't at all belongs to Masala genre,,,,i remember in an interview David Dhawan has said that he has taken Nargis because she is beautiful and his Hindi accent is bad,,which is needed in the movie,,,,i guess David has forgot that to act good is the most important thing for a movie......Anupam Kher and Rajpal Yadav are enjoyable ,,,,, but i enjoyed Shaurav Shukla's character more,,,,i appreciate that director has used him sufficiently.....Arunoday is a very good actor,,,,but his character is so badly scatched,,,,in first half he is a angry cop who is taking anger management classed,,,,who uses more of his punch than his mouth,,,,but in second half suddenly there has been a drastic change in his character ,, he become a foolish and everyone is making fool of him,,,nobody is scared of him....He should choose better characters for himself.... Full marks for David Dhawan,,,,only he could have given such an entertaining (if only partial) movie out of such a thin plot..... Music was catchy,,,,although some song a misplaced but are visually good so are enjoyable..... Editing is great,,,,as the movie is just 2 hr and 8 min long. Movies like Main Tera Hero are needed in Bollywood in regular intervals,,,,there is a big part of audience which enjoys such movies....Small mention of Salmaan who have given the voice of god in the movie,,,,he was enjoyable too.... M going for 3 out of 5 as i partially enjoyed it and my money is not wasted,,,,u can enjoy it less or more depends on the thing that in which category of audience u fall.... by ANuP APu KuMaR
