I recently watched this Salman Khan and Sonam Kapoor starred movie. I did not have much to do(it was a holiday) and it had been quite some time since I watched a bollywood movie, so I decided to hit the theatre. I did not have very high hopes from the movie and if you are also going to watch the movie then it would be better to keep this in your mind.
Coming to the cast, there is our own Salman bhai in double role, one as the son of the deceased king ready to be coronated and the second as Prem Dilwala, a person working in a ramleela company. Sonam Kapoor is the lead actress and she could have played her role with more passion and attention to accuracy. She looks beautiful at time, but fails to appear very impressive. Besides that, we have Anupam Kher, playing the role of dewan saheb and he has done pretty much justice to his part. There is Neil Nitin Mukesh too playing the role of step-brother of Salman Khan. Now the movie has been set up in the backyards of palaces and mansions and characters living in rajmahals while talking english and using iphones is something which do not appear natural.
The movie as such was entertaining and in last few moments is a bit emotional also but it was not completely able to keep be glued to my seat for the whole duration. Acting could have been a lot better.Except that of Salman Khan everyone could have done more justice to their roles. You can go and watch this movie but as I mentioned in the beginning, don’t have very high hopes.
