Shaandaar has got populated by advertising only. After seeing Sahid and Alia in many TV cereals for Shaandar promotion I have wasted my valuable time in watching a non realistic bakwas movie. I want my money back. The film is bloated with excess.
The director also throws in animated flashbacks to accentuate the film’s fairy tale impulses. Nothing adds up in Shaandaar and few of the characters have any sort of evolution. There is no reason - why does Alia get a panty when everyone else gets breakfast and why is Eesha stripping down to her underwear at the mandap?
Songs dressed up and going nowhere, saying nothing. Sequences meant to showcase actual planes, and flights of fancy, but looping no loops. Where’s the ‘shaan’ in all this?
