Yash Chopra churns out one more Designer-Romantic flick, Mujhse Dosti Karoge(MDK). MDK is very important for careers of four people. After string of mega-flops, Hrithik Roshan very badly needs a hit. Rani mukherjee has not given a single hit in the recent past, so she too badly needs MDK to Click. After a moderate success of ‘Ajnabee’ and Debacle of ‘Asoka’(K3G was not her movie), Kareena is in desperate need of Hit. Who can be more desperate for a hit than a First-Time Director? Kunal Kohli’s future lies in MDK, or else he has to return to Music Videos and TV Anchoring.
With so many people’s hopes, MDK is finally here.
Will MDK be as successful as Yash Chopra’s previous flicks, is the question on everyone’s lips. I have the answer to this question, and that is: YES!
No Yash Chopra movie is complete without ‘Swiss Alps’ and mention of ‘London’. Don’t worry! MDK is complete. Debutant director, Kunal Kohli, seems to be an impressive student of Yash Chopra School of filmmaking. Yash Chopra must have given him ‘GRADE A’. First, let me make it clear. MDK is NO DDLJ, KKHH, KNPH or K3G, but it is definitely a good entertaining movie. KKHH’s ‘Tina’ is MDK’s ‘Pooja’, and K3G’s ‘pooja(pooh)’ is MDK’s Tina. I don’t want to confuse you more.
MDK is a love triangle. Raj(Hrithik), Tina(kareena) and Pooja(Rani) are three childhood friends. Better you watch it yourself at your nearest theater…LOL;)
Hrithik goes through his usual pace. He dances, makes funny faces, tries to copy Amitabh and Shahrukh, but he is a complete Hero. He especially shines in emotional scenes where he can be a tough challenge to legends like Amitabh, Shahrukh and Dilip Kumar.
Kareena is once again with her ‘pooh(k3g)’ style. No doubt that she looks gorgeous and swims like a professional in all kinds of scenes, but she has to stop overdoing ‘pooh’ in every movie.
Uday chopra is the same as what he was in ‘Mere Yaar Ki Shaadi’.
Rani is the dark horse in MDK. For the first time we get to see Rani’s full potential. In every scene she steals the show from Hrithik and Kareena. MDK will change Rani’s future, and she will be once again on the top.
Kunal Kohli(Director) has managed to give us a clean entertainment. No doubt, Kunal is here to stay.
The biggest asset of MDK is its music. All the songs are good on ears. Rahul Sharma(Music Director) has given us YashChopra-Music. I sometimes suspect whether it is really the music directors giving the music or it is Yash Chopra himself.
Don’t walk into the theater with rocket-high expectations; you will get disappointed.
