Story Plot:
If Faran's earlier effort 'Dil Chahata Hai' is in your all time favorite list then this movie may not disappoint as well. Loosely based on the same story, but a great effort put in this time to bring some depth to the characters. A story of four college friends whose ambition to become rock stars, breaks down some where down the life's race due to personal confrontations. The effort that takes to reunite them after a decade and how maturely that has been put is the strength of the movie. Faran and Arjun Rampal have done justice to their lead roles.
Strengths:
1. Intelligent story telling; We can see a great effort put in to make the movie look realistic and matured. Though story is told in current time line, clever references are made to the the past timeline. You can feel the realistic touch even through the lyrics.
2. The character roles and the justification by artists.
Weakness:
1. In the process of giving a realistic touch to the screenplay, the pace of the movie is hampered.
2. Though the narration is good, story is ordinary.
The best part in the movie is nothing looks unnecessary. Director has spent time on finer details and has delivered a quality product. There are no sudden twists without enough evidences. You actually believe in the script. Music is good but not great. Since its a musical movie, the music should have been very popular before the release of the movie but not so. Unlike DCH, this may not please all kind of viewers but still a very sensitive movie which may strike a chord of your heart. Its respectful 6.5/10 to this flaw-less,well made, sensitive movie.
