Khiladi Kumar is now officially wearing the turban. After SINGH IS KINNG in 2008 with Anees Bazmee, Akshay Kumar wears the turban effectively, yet again, to portray Raftaar Singh in SINGH IS BLIING. Prabhu Deva has all the ingredients to make this an entertainer with some genuinely funny moments, colourfully choreographed songs, some breath-taking action/fight sequences and some wonderfully goofy moments with Akshay having the time of his life.
But what really makes the movie tick is not Akshay Kumar. Surprisingly, Akshay takes a backseat. It is Amy Jackson and Lara Dutta who actually steal the thunder in SINGH IS BLIING. All in all, the performances are controlled which gives it that feel-good factor. SINGH IS BLIING does have it loopholes in the script, but the ladies do a fab job of keeping us entertained.
Watch it for Amy Jackson and Lara Dutta. Of course, you cannot discount Akshay Kumar.
