HALLA BOL...
Thnk GOD, the makers of the film slated this from 21st DEC to 11th Jan.
Altough BETTER than the slapstick comedy [b]"WELCOME" [/b]but not as grippin asthe critically & publically acclaimed [b]"TAARE ZAMEEN PAR"[/b]
Made on the lines of Santoshi's super hit film [b]"DAMINNI".[/b] The difference is bein made in the PROTAGONAIST & the changed modern era...
AJAY DEVGAN plays a small town theater actor under his GURU PANKAJ KAPUR & love interest VIDYA BALAN. He gets his parents permisson to go to MUMBAI to try his luck in BOLLYWOOD...
He becomes a SUPER-STAR after months of struggling...But realises that he has lost everything while trying to win all the luxuries of the world for his FAMILY...
The film has a string of special appearances by top stars like [b]Sridevi, Jackie Shroff, Tusshar Kapoor and even Kareena Kapoor. [/b]While Sridevi and her husband Boney Kapoor are seen giving Ajay’s character an award in the film, Kareena, Tusshar and Jackie play themselves (actors) in this flick.
Without much diclosing the plot & story . . .
I would only say that plz watch it for
[teal]---> The immersely talented [b]PANKAJ KAPUR[/b]
---> [b]AJAY DEVGAN[/b]'s rebellious role . . .
---> [b]RAJKUMAR SANTOSHI[/b]'s DIRECTION . . .[/teal]
