P.K.



Dear Raju Hirani,

Its blasphemous to review a film made by u since you are the master of cinema and perhaps one of the best directors of our generation. But this hype surrounding your name has made ur new film PK, as a pale comparison to your previous bests. 

PK's plot is about Aamir landing on earth as Jaadu and then going on a god-bitching trip like paresh rawal from OMG. 

Interesting concept but raju hirani fails to play on his biggest plus point - Human emotions. While Munnabhai & 3 idiots had many scenes where you cry your eyes out. ( remember the jimmy shergill scenes in munnabhai) PK seems dry gylcerine in comparison. Also the narrative screenplay is repetative and monotonous, hence u hav aamir blaming god for everything for about most part of first half and thn finding a solution in the second. Also its not entertaining or fun. The films resemblance to paresh rawals brilliant OMG takes the shine of this 133min movie.

Special mention to the music director and songs in the film - YOU SUCK BABAJI KA THULLU. The music is so bad that you just want to smoke outside the theatre even though you are not a smoker.

The loopholes in the story is as big as Aamirs space ship. 1. If anushka and sushant broke up just by reading a letter then y cant they call each other god dammit, who sleeps with someone in a foreign country without taking their ghar ka number. 2. And if you dont have their number then hirani ji we live in the facebook generation, just a message would have done the trick. 
3. How come Sanjay dutt diagnose correctly that the thief must be in delhi ?
4. And why o why does Aamir get a bhojpuri prostitute in a gaav of rajasthan ?

Aamir does a wonderful job. The perfectionist who was lost in a money making chit fund called Dhoom 3 has returned with a superlative performance.
Anushka looks like a cute hyper duck-lipped lesbian. Why would u give her such a hideos wig.
Saurabh Shukla is superb

Overall, PK is a strictly one time watch from raju hirani standards. I prefer watching Koi mil gaya, OMG or any of hiranis past works than this half baked alien adventure.
PK is just OK

Rating - **half
