GHAJINI (2008)

It’s certainly most awaited film of the year with sky rocketed expectations of Bollywood. Most of us know that its second Indian version of the original classic cult thriller ‘Memento’. So those who have seen the original, the comparison naturally strikes while viewing this film but hey there are certain changes made by director (naturally Aamir!!!) to suit Indian audience & to make it blockbuster hit of the year & it will be surely super hit. Aamir has done class act with his both looks & its out & out his film than any other actor of the film. He is the rare breed of quality actor who really experimenting in an unusual roles & films & audience will surely remember him in this new avatar with his toned muscles & powerful role play. He is really Bollwood’s Kamal Hasan.
The film has all the ingredients to entertain the audience- performances, thrill, action, music & romance. The first half is introduction of plot, flashbacks pre-murder with fun-romance & its touchy one with humor & romance intertwined. The chemistry of Aamir- Asin works here which justifies the revenge in the end. Well its more revenge flick than intriguing ‘Memento’ so action plays pivotal role in the second half. With Compelling plot (mostly rip off) here action is also play vital role & you will see lot of South Indian kind of maar-dhaad but with Aamir’s revival body & expression it will keep your senses off the hook. Asin looks refreshingly fresh in her funny act & her performance will also stay with you once you are out of the theatre. Jiah’s role is significant in the script but its not developed further than aid to the central character.
So even though you have seen ‘Memento’ or not the movie is must watch for every Aamir Khan Lover as it’s the Merry Christmas gift to all Aamir Khan lovers.
