Paheli.... Different or Full of C*** !! ?? !!

Happened to catch Paheli 1st day, last show on friday... & believe me it's a mix n match of some amazin technical aspects of film-making coupled with some very illogical cr***y happenings ... A very slow movie to start off with most of the 1st half getting u into a go-to-sleep mode :D
Later on in the 2nd half, we do have some kinda pace which is useless if u have already fallen off to sleep :D

Ok..Points to appreciate in the movie... Some amazin camera work by Ravi Chandran.. who has been there & done that... with count-less hit movies in Bollywood as well as down south... So accolades to him... & Amol Palekar has done a fine job with SRK... The King Khan at his best playin out a role.. (this may be largely bcoz he's producing the movie - Red Chillies Entertainment.. Where were the chillies :O )

Rani Mukherjee... wat to say of her..she is back to her normal ways post Black.. (4get B&B...dat was even cr***ier... )

The most indigestible part... the heroine gets herself impregnated by a Ghost... gosh... how unromantic.. & this friendly ghost unlike the others (Casper, Black Beard's ... ) can be tickled by humans ... woah baby.... Out for a toss goes Mr. Bhoot's reputation .. lol ..

And one more highlight of the movie is the camel race... Hey Amol.. Y o Y did u have to put this in the movie .. ???

Big B comes on for just 5 mins but he is classic... & also good to see Juhi , Sharvari (from bindhast-marathi), Dilip Prabhavalkar... All popular in the Theatre & Marathi movie circuit...

Nyways.. if ur a Die hard SRK or Rani Mukherjee fan..then yes do go to see the mooovie... else dont spend time solvin this paheli... u'd be better off solvin a Mid-Day crossword instead .. ;-D (No offence King Khan... mayb ur Red Chillies need more spice the next time .. :D )

@Kirthi
Yes some songs are good..surely but in the context of the movie tend to drag..but then again dat mite be coz the mvie is a bit slow to start off..

@Shobz..
