Baazaar

Bazaar is perhaps one of the very few movies in Bollywood which shows the underbelly of the financial market. Hence I will like to praise the writers for the fresh subject matter. But having said that, unfortunately the film with it's predictable plot and cliched characters doesn't sustain that freshness for much long. At the beginning, the lead character of Rizwan seems promising with it's small-town-background-with-big dreams storyline. But soon after coming to Mumbai it turns into something tacky and "Bollywoodish".

Only relief comes from Saif Ali Khan's character. He is the star of the film. I wish the film had not given away so much space to Rizwan. Rohan was totally a misfit for the character and his performance was nothing short of being cringe-worthy.

And what can I say about the obsession for songs. They were a complete deal breaker for me. Weird songs. All sorts of songs. One remix. One Honey Singh. One with Rahat Fateh Ali Khan even. But none of them works for the story. I think it is high time Bollywood Studios should start reevaluate putting songs in between shots for no reason. Ruins the whole mood.

Special mention for the weirdly choppy editing. It made an illusion of fast pace even with a slow and stretched script.

A good plot with lots of predictable twists.

Some unrealistic potrayal of trading and office environment..

Nobody would go to an extent of spitting in a cup to show arrogance. And 8 people in a busy office cannot get free instantly to interview a random guy.

Bazaar have good plot which is little bit similar to Hollywood wall street films but the MIXING and jumping Bollywood masala like songs ( very bad songs ) and Dilouges war made it in many ways horrible, Saif Ali Khan did justice by his act as well for Rohan Mehra but he should work in his expressions ! One time watch

3 out of 5 Hamad Saif Al Reyami

What a genuine actor he is! I was hesitant to book the ticket for this one simply because i thought its a rip off of the Hollywood movies related to stocks but i was also interested because i like Saif in this type of roles. After i watched all i have to say is that Saif deserves all the appreciation for his wonderful performance after a long time.

Its a good movie mixed of lots of stories of Stock Market and dialougues from top Stock market legends who actually made money. Insider news, how big players create news. STRONG role of Saif Ali Khan!
