Shalom Namaste....but no thanks!

Everyone learns something or the other from bollywood movies...... Well this is what I learnt after watching 'Salaam Namaste'.....

1. Colourful undies are in.
2. Sensible lyrics are out.
3. Wear loud clothes and you get laid.
4. Melbourne is like Mundhwa. Catch a rick and you are there.
5. Athletic dancing of a nine months pregnant woman is good for her baby.
6. Cant speak English? Become a doctor in Australia...

Ok here's a simple question....
What do you get when cross mutated goat with a colourful donkey?
Simple.....You get Preity and Saif in Salaam Namste.
One cant stop braying and the other cant stop showing how gay he is....

*** SPOILER AHEAD *****
(movie story discussed)
Well, you cant really spoil that is already so bad.....


In a nutshell, wannabe guy-wannabe job-pretty girl-Australian lifestyle in Indian pay-both start off on wrong foot-sing a misplaced song-fall in love-live together-guy knocks up the girl-now the best part---INTERMISSION---girl pregnant-guy in denial-blame it on the faulty condom (so picked up from 'Friends')-girl sees guy's real colour-abortion attempt-sees meaning of life in clinic-abortion called off-guy hysterical-girl->"We should break up."-Guy->"Yeah. Maybe we should."-Me->"Yawn."-turmoil-that song with silly lyrics-get back together-happy ending-Me still yawning-Movie over-Me delighted.

On a more serious note, too much 'Kal Ho Na Ho' and 'HumTum' baggage. Sloppy direction. Too much plagiarism. Haywire scripting. More emphasis on packaging than on content. Superficial acting. Lame attempt of introducing comedy. Waste of Arshad Warsi.

Best Dialogue -- Javed Jaffarey: "While in Rome, do the Romans."

Best Scene - INTERMISSION

Best Plot: Preity Zinta trying to pull-off a Mallika Sherawat.

Exit Quote: "Should have watched 'No Entry' instead."

MORAL OF THE STORY: Dont watch unreviewed Yash Raj films.
