Dilwale is a good movie of shah rukh khan. Directed by’Rohit Shetty & Team’ - yes, that’s how the credit titles read - Dilwale borrows the first word from the title of Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol’s most well known movie and turns the pair’s aura into one big farce fest with the humour touching rock-bottom.And the romance just a little above.
There are some sweet romantic moments in flashbacks when Shah Rukh turns young( he wears sneakers to prove it, while courting Kajol) . But soon after the narrative falls apart completely . There is this whole on-going gag in the second-half where Varun’s character believes his brother Shah Rukh was named’Ramlal’ in the past and Kajol was called’Pogo’. The conception, execution and elaboration of the Ramlal-Pogo joke takes up a majority of the second-half.
