All hype over the 8-pack abs, which make a few seconds guest appearence, and nothing else. Aamir fails to deliver the ferociousness required. Only Asin is the film's highlight. Song dissapoint, and over-all the film does not deliver the knock-out punch. There is no repeat value.

perhaps one of the worst movies of 2008 after tashan and singh is king! guys common tis is the height of stupidity to even say or write anything gud abt such movies. no offences to anyone but tis movie is only for south indian crowd , i m not saying tht the other parts of india has better taste for movies( dont forget singh is king ) but tis movie is simply awefull, i dont have words to express my anger! the only gud thing in the movie was amir khan and tht too in bits only, we expext better from him, dont we? total waste of money and time. the director cud not even copy well, i m sure telgu version must b better than tis because we know what we ould be watching in telgu movies but in hindi cinema which is quite a name in overseas ------not acceptable at all. i beg of u all dont watch it!

Aamir Khan suffers from short-term memory loss in Ghajini, a cerebral disorder by which his memory lasts only for 15 minutes. Seemingly director A R Murgadoss suffered from the same while deriving from Memento, for he seems to have retained only about 15% of the original masterpiece and fabricated the rest as per his formulaic sensibilities. So while you still have the Polaroid camera, post it notes and a tattooed body from Memento, the nonlinear narrative and conspiracy theory is compromised for a prolonged romance track and exaggerated revenge drama. Sadly gimmicks like 8-pack abs or trimmed hairline can't cover up loopholes of a flawed script. Sanjay Singhania (Aamir Khan) has been hit on the head which gives him recurring bouts of amnesia, almost every fifteen minutes. He is hunting for a person named Ghajini (Pradeep Rawat), and to remember his target, he has inscribed his initials and related clues on his body, has pasted post-it notes all across his apartment and carries a Polaroid camera to click pictures of people important to him. An investigating officer gets hold of his daily diary that gives a background account of his character. Sanjay is an affluent industrialist and falls in love with a girl named Kalpana (Asin). The diary changes hands from the inspector to a medical student (Jiah Khan) but the flashback account continues to stretch from the first half to the second with a long-drawn-out love story between the two. With ample song-dance-romance, the story is Indianized but that's the only redeeming factor for the director fails to exploit the psychological side of the story. Don't cry a spoiler when I say that Ghajini killed Kalpana since that is awfully obvious from the very start with the tattoos on Sanjay's body and his quest to kill Ghajini. And if you still expect a twist in the tale for some suspenseful impact, be prepared to know that this one just ends up being a regular revenge drama. The action sequence in the climax is shamelessly stretched, as long as Sanjay can sustain his memory, for fifteen literal minutes. At its core, Ghajini is essentially a romance track culminating into a revenge drama. Only externally it is sewed up with the memory loss syndrome which could have been the highlight. And even the memory loss isn't sensibly justified in the script. The major flaw of the film is how Sanjay remembers Ghajini's sidekicks and traces them from nowhere. Almost every scene seems to have been written to cover up the earlier penned scene. The length could surely have been trimmed for the extra runtime doesn't add to the conviction like in a Lagaan or a Jodhaa Akbar. A R Rahman's music is melodious and songs are choreographed with typical South Indian flamboyancy. Strangely the background theme piece sounds like Sare Jahan Se Acha. Aamir is not bad but one expects more from the actor than Rajnikant style amplified-action sequences or anger bouts reminiscent of a hysterical Kamal Hassan from Abhay. Asin is pleasing and Jiah Khan is decent. Pradeep Rawat hams in the title role. If you are expecting an intelligent psychological suspense thriller, watch Memento. If you are looking for an intense desi action masala watch the Tamil Ghajini. For the Hindi version doesn't show much difference other than trimming the twin villain from the original into a single baddie. By now we are prone to digesting the exaggerated action in south cinema. It would still take some time to accept Aamir Khan doing the same. Rather, the question in first place is, would we ever want to accept Aamir in such avatar?

Aamir tried to be KING KHAN but failed by few votes this movie will not be liked by all age groups<youth oriented><rajnikant type> especially for thoes who has habbit of watching english movies. Aamir tried speak by his body reactions that was gud. while RNBDJ is for everyone though it was also not upto the expectations on the other hand JUMBO was fantastic.
