"Deepika, the Cherry on Cake!"

OSO team had promised as its going to be 100% entertainment making sure you will not be bored even for a second. Well, they almost keep up with their words. Melodious music, Masala story, extreme drama and ofcource SRK & Deepika contributes to what could be second block buster for SRK in this year.

For bollywood movies there is always freedom of high drama, endless coincidences and extreme imagination. I felt just towards the end, this movie made use of this liberty excessively.

Story Plot:
As it was publicized, it’s a story based on reincarnation drama, partly inspired by Karz, the 70’s block buster. The story is good enough to hold the people on the edge of the seat till the end with the suspense. But having said that, I felt Karz was logically more convincing story than OSO.

Strengths:
Ø Deepika, (Yes I am naming Deepika before SRK in this section). More by her looks than acting she has impressed the audience to the core. Her screen presentation is just mind blowing! Let it be her pink dress or may be when she unfolds the burkha, she looks just out of this world.
Ø Ofcource SRK, 70’s sets, music, humor and screenplay.
Ø Star packed title song where 31 stars make appearance.

Weakness:
Ø Story could have been more innovative.
Ø Deepika is underused in the movie. Although story is completely revolving around her, she has hardly any role in 2nd half. She is just used as cherry on cake which tends to increase the looks of the cake than the taste. Who knows she might be under used deliberately by OSO team so as not expose her acting skills till she grows more in this profession!


To sum up, hats off to SRK and FK’s efforts for making a typical bollywood movie, a perfect movie to watch with your family during diwali. Surely 7/10 to this diwali blockbuster.
