Ghajini -- Review

“Itni Shiddat se maine tujhe paane ki koshish ki hai; ki har zarre ne mujhe tumse milane ki saajish ki hain”.

This is a dialogue from the OSO delivered by SRK. However, while watching the movie ghajini, i felt the dialogue more apt here. Right, so i have seen this movie and also read countless reviews people have written. Infact i read the review first and then watched the movie ( hah ..kya dude huin na main ? ). But then, i would also like to point out few things about this movie.

First, anyone who still believes that this is inspired from the movie Memento, then my friend you are correct. But the similarity ends at the fact that our hero also scribbles onto his body small details and uses photos to manage his memory as he is suffering from "short term memory loss" or referred to as the 15 min. guy as he lasts for 15 mins. I mean, his memory. Thatz it. Rest of all is the old Indian love story masala. Rich guy falls for poor girl, girl is killed, hero takes revenge !!!.

Even though am a Aamir khan fan, i don't feel the movie is upto his standards. It could have been better. May be i am comparing it to its original hollywood (which is a master piece by-the-way, you must have a dekho at it), but then, i didn't find the movie more appealing, apart from the few funny moments in the beginning and also the ease with which Aamir transformed himself from a normal guy to a revenge seeking ferocious animal and vice-versa.

Secondly, i guess what the story line would have been, had our female lead shown common sense and placed her mobile on silent mode when she was hiding ?. Nobody thought abt it ?? ..or is it just my great observation !! .. Nah, i know am not that good, and hence proves that there were some goof up .. Aamir are you listening ??

Jiah khan, the less i talk about her, the better. I did like her one time ..but now she is un-watchable. May be she was without her makeup or something , i don't know.

Overall i would say, a bit bloody and gory movie, some scenes were really cruel. A good one time watching type.

Also have a look at this .. its self-explanatory as to why women should not be allowed to watch ghajini ..
