It had been almost 2 years since I had been to theatre. So I was on the outlook for a movie that could rekindle the urge to make me go to the theatres. And then disater struck.
Fanaa happened.
The director to be specific is a genius. He has made such a whooping business in the first few weeks itself. He has made more meoney than he had invested. And that too with a script that is total nonsense. A woman in distress is calling the police to tip about a "WANTED" terrorist and the police officer on the other starts a BhagavadGita upasan to her instead of making a note of the address and taking immediate action. And the blind girl identifies the victims things without even feeling them. Man now that's what I call awesome senses.
In corporate I did put it as words half a day's effort wasted.
I would rather see Hrushikesh Mukherjee's Anand twice over before even thinking of going to the theater to watch a movie. That is quality of movies that people are coming up wiht these days, even though the situation is much better than the KKHH days.
The big budget guys are here to pull the audience with the star power rather than qulality in the story line and script and the low budget guys pull in struggling item girls and pose them half naked to bring in big bucks. Yes every rule has an exception and some small budget movies have made it big without having to revert to cheap publicity. What is message these guys are spreading? What is the medium becoming a portal for?
Questions, Questions and more questions. Well in a way Fanaa succeeded with me also. I have now planned to watch better movies since they are the ones that deserve the money if not for their budget but their effort.
