Going by the title of the film there is no ‘ghazab’ story. Having said that the story line has nothing new in it – it is rather one which is typical bollywood.
The story goes like this –Ranbir (Prem) is a happy go lucky guy whose dad is fed up of telling him to take life more seriously. But he inevitably falls in love with Katrina (Jenny). Just as he was planning to spill the beans on her there is a ‘kabab mein haddi’, that is –he comes to know she likes another guy; ‘Upen Patel’
(Rahul)-this makes him shut up like a clamp. He tries helping her with her problems in the progress of the affair when she suddenly realizes her feelings for Prem instead.
Prem’s parents played by Darshan Jariwala and Smita Jaykar are very much a requisite and important part of the film, providing the punch lines to pep things up. Upen Patel with his anglicized Hindi is average. The film ends on a happy note. There are many hilarious moments in the film with the bad versus the good tug of war situations. The best part of the film is actually Ranbir Kapoor. He has indeed proved that he does belong to the ‘Kapoor Khandaan’, the real movie stalwarts of bollywood. Ranbir has become much better than the kid he was, and is very convincing in his role as a love struck lover who has a soft gullible heart. The comic timings of Ranbir are too good. His presence in every scene is very much a pleasure to watch and sometimes one just can’t help comparing him with his grand-father, while he jumps from one scene to another.
His dancing skills also are a perfect reminder of his dad. His knack for converting an ordinary scene into an interesting one comes across in many scenes. Katrina is very good eye candy and her scenes with Ranbir are good as far as their chemistry goes. Her acting skills are well presented like the scenes where they are upset, are quite amusingly shot. Even the ‘saawariya towel’ act was quite funny. It has been shot in exotic locations in Oty, Goa and Turkey and is shot wonderfully, especially the locations.
The music is very good and ‘Tera hone laga hoon’ beats it up. Yet the only attraction in the film is the ‘Kapoor puttar’ and Kat’s chemistry. We do hope that the audiences go in with not very high expectations but just with a hope of 150 minutes of pure entertainment. So go ahead and enjoy.
