Dear MSians,
Salaam | Namaste.
Though I was not expecting that there will be shortage of tickets for the show of SALAAM | NAMASTE. But I was feeling somewhat bored at my room so I thought I should reach cinema hall and get my ticket for my favorite seat. So I reached hall one and half hour before the show.
I was very happy as there was not much rush. But my happens didnt last longer.As I reached booking counter, all the seats were booked in advance. Only few seats were available for the front rows.
So I got ticket at last. But it was so much surprising that this movie was booked in advance. Cinema hall was packed.
Thanks SALAAM | NAMASTE, I got to see so many Indian faces around me after so many days.

Performance
Saif Ali Khan. This guy is simply improved after DIL CHATHA HAI.And he is improving with every release. Do look out for his expressions .They is matchless. His expressions are just continuation of what he delivered in Dil Chatha Hai.
Priety Zinta aka Amber aka Hamber aka Ambi.
She is looking stunning beautiful in the movie and delivering yet another deadly performance.
Her character was full of masti and maturity.And she delivers both thing effortless.
Arshad Warsi.Wow !!! bollywood has got another star for comic roles. He is simply great while performing those witty oneliners.He is simply enjoyable after Munnabhai and Maine Pyaar Kyu Kiya. His comic timings are superb.
Javed Jaffery.He was bit irritating, but well justified his character as Landlord with superb English(Look out for my review title. It’s dedicated to him only.)
Abhishek Bachhan .Not a great performance. He was really irritating.
Jugal Hansraj. He was looking very cue and performed very well in his small role.
Music Track
Well nothing to say about the music of the movie. It’s already a HIT.
Songs are treat to watch on big screen, specially the Title track because of the location.
Other songs are as you all know are already hitting the top charts and they are not there forcibly.
Some best scenes
Interview of Nik by Amber.
First meeting of Ron and Nik.
Scene at restaurant where Nik took amber for ice-cream at night.(Perhaps the most romantic scene)
Every scene of Javed Jaffery where he speaks English
Saif drinking milk in the toilet.
Full sequence where real identity of Saif and Priety are revealed.
Some ONE LINERS fromthe Movie
Ladkiyon ka logic waala switch hamesha off rehta hai, aur agar on hota hai to regulator hamesha 0 pe rehta hai.
Have good day.
Mujhe Gooday gudiya se khelne ka shauk nahi hai
My Opinion
Well movie was out and out hit. No doubt. Movie is full of masti, romance, emotions and a bit similar to today’s life. Though may be difficult to digest the Live in relations. But it was superbly executed.
Performance was the best .every body delivered his best. Being any comic scene , emotional scene or dance. Every thing was perfect.
Direction by new comer Siddharth anand is good.Movie dont seems to be directed by a newbie.
Direction was perfect, there was no flaw in the movie regarding the pace. Every scene of the movie was full of life except some illogiaccl scenes, like the climax when
Preity is going to drliver the baby.he climax was Unnecessarily elongated witd all the logics keeping behind
And similar is how one can dance with 8 months pregnancy, but our heroine does.
And yes don’t miss out BEHIND THE SCENES in the end of the movie they are as good as the movie itself
P.S
Look out for the trailer of Neel N Nikki .This is a new concept of brand promotion by Yash raj films.
Prasiddha you got the 1st spot , I got 11th .See I got two ones . Ha ha ha Enjoy this
movie And please
Do comment.They are eagerly awaited
Till my next
SALAAM | NAMASTE
