KISI KA BHAI KISI KI JAAN: A lot of critics have panned the movie labeling it as pure balderdash. But I found it to be a masala entertainer with mass appeal, although totally formulaic.
This movie is a remake of the Tamil movie “Veeram”. Salman, handsome to a fault, sports two hairstyles, a long flowing one while he is in Delhi and a short one while he is in Hyderabad.
The romance is mostly hands-off barring a few hugs but I wish Salman would select more age-appropriate heroines. His yesteryear heroines Bhagyashree (with hubby Himalay and son Abhimanyu) and Bhumika Chawla show up in cameos. Veteran actress Rohini Hattangadi also plays a senior role. The action scenes are well-choreographed but it is hard to digest Salman bashing up Olympic medallist boxer Vijender Singh who plays the villain. The songs and the background music are superb especially the “Yentamma” song which features Oscar winner Ram Charan but the pelvic thrusts look vulgar. The closing credits song composed by Yo Yo Honey Singh comprising of nursery rhymes could have been better. And yes, there is that famous mandatory shirtless scene that is so swoon-worthy. This is a feel-good movie and would resonate well with family audiences. Please do not go by paid reviews. Watch the movie and come home with a heart filled with joy and mirth.
