To start off with, this is one of the movies like Dil chahta hai, rang de basanti where you will feel like the movie is your own journey. Thanks Farhan to make such a movie, watching which feels like you are experiencing something. Now to write something about the story,its a journey of a music band, from failure to sucess. In between the journey, there are deifferent kinds of relationships that Abishek has tried to bring up. So many emotional, and touching moments in the movie really abhisek what a beautiful job he has done. Now a musical movie like this the music is really important. Hats off to shankar, ehsaan loy, and not to forget Farhan who has sung almost all the songs. The music is just fantastic.... The music has soul only because it is well connected with the story of the movie. Now performances: Farhan akhtar...you can not believe the way he has acted in the movie. Long way to go dude. If Don dissapoints me, after this movie i became his fan. Arjun Rampal: Superb is the word for him. He has shown in the movie, he is growing as an actor. Prachi Desai: Excellent as in small screens. Purab Kohli: He is tremendous and the X-factor of the movie. Shahana Goswami: Too good..

Well finally after Chak De India Bollywood gets the formula perfect, a movie that’s reminiscent to Dil Chahta Hai, a movie that has it all to win the hearts of its Audience. With Rock on Director Abhishek Kapoor and producer Farhan Akhtar bring alive a new breed of stirring and fabulous celluloid concept to Bollywood. Tribute to all young aspiring rock bands across the country, the movie takes you through an emotional and an exciting journey of a life of four young talented lads and their dream Band called the MAGIK. But wait, you don’t need to be a Rock fanatic to enjoy the movie, if you believe in friendship, if you believe in Dreams, your aspirations you’ll just fall in love with Magik, and it will rock you for every penny you paid. It’s a movie that instills a message to everyone to believe in your dreams, to trust your passion, to live your life the way you dreamt it to be. Rock on is a story of 4 aspiring and vibrant young talents Aditya Shroff (Farhan Akhtar), Joe Mascarenhas (Arjun Rampal), Kedar Zaveri (Purab Kohli) and Rob Nancy (Luke Kenny) following their dream, the MAGIK, which is the name of their successful Band. The movie opens with Magik performing Live on stage post which the movie fast forwards by 10 years. Now the band doesn’t exist anymore due to personal difference that arouse between the Band members. Adi, the lead Vocalist of the band is a successful investment banker married to Sakshi (Prachi Desai). Though married their relationship would be troubled coz Adi devotes most of his time on business to forget the bitter memories of his band and its failure. Rob, who was once on Magik’s keyboard, now composes music to few commercials. Kedar, the drummer, is supporting his dad’s diamond business. Joe, the lead guitarist is now in troubled financial conditions without a job. Everyone lives a life, but none live their dream, the Magik. Prachi, who realizes about her Husband’s band while she accidentally discovers some old photographs of Adi with his Band mates decides to bring alive the band and see her Husband live his dream once again. From there starts a journey of a dream, a friendship, and a life called the Magik, and it’s one last performance that makes its protagonist live their Dream for real. It’s a journey that at times would moist your eyes, would put a curve on your face, would make you sing, above all it would inspire you with a message that you would remember much after you leave the hall. Apart from it’s commendable story line which has earned Rock on much appreciations from critics all over the world, it also has some fantastic and soothing tracks of 70’s and 80’s Rock Genre. Farhan Akhtar, who has sung six of its tracks, has done a terrific job. And all four lead actors have given an absolute laudable performance; truly their acting in Rock On deserves an ovation from everyone. Its movies like Rock On that still makes movie buffs have a trust on Bollywood flicks. Otherwise in days when Bollywood is producing absolute gibberish movies like Singh is Kinng and Saawariya, it’s hard to have any expectation out of a Bollywood movie. Rock On truly would be a movie that would surpass all your expectation and you would cherish this movie as one of the finest Bollywood movie you watched in recent past.

MIND BLOWING!!!!! This movie has revolutionised movie making and music in Bollywood films.Very well written and executed, Hats Off to Abhishek Kapoor for ROCK ON! after quite the dismal success of Aryan. Arjun Rampal has definitely made a point with not only his best prformance but one that will be remembered forever. Farhan Akhtar has already proven to be a gr8 director but now he raises the bar and shows his mature and brilliant acting skills, not quite shown by newcomers. In addition he lends his voice to 7 out of 9 songs. Purab Kohli and Luke Kenny too have performed brilliantly giving 110% to their characters. Also Prachi Desai makes a very lovable debut as Farhan's wife, giving the movie a fresh face. Shankar Ehsaan Loy show their 'magik' with wonderful songs and music which have potential to achieve cult status. All in all its double Thumbs Up for ROCK ON!
