'Hud Hud Dabangg...Dabangg...'
Oh, i shouldn't be singing, it's review time and i'm back with the most sought after movie in recent times.
Abhinav Singh Kashyap's 'Dabangg' is nothing new. Its the same old masala story and in the same old illogical screenplay. But there sure are some important things to watch out for. The first and foremost is Salman (Sallu Bhai), I wasn't his die hard fan but now i am. Sallu Bhai Rocks!
The next is the background score and the songs. Gosh! The stunts, the dialogues and the protagonist's mannerisms all dance in unison to the background score.
The last but not the least is Sonakshi Sinha. She looks gorgeous, not at all amateurish. She does it in flamboyant style. Hats off to her!
Above all, the credit must go to the dialogue writers, Jalees Sherwani-Faaiz Anwar-Lalit Pandit. I mean, each sentence spoken by even the junior most actor is both comical and apt to the story-screenplay. One would wonder where these people were till now. Salman's each dialogue was what a south indian would call a 'punch dialogue'.
Oh, the story, Forgot about it totally. Its nothing, there is this eccentric police officer (Chulbul Pandey) and the movie is about his chronicles in his era in that area. There is nothing much to worry about the story because it is totally garbled. Leave your brains at home or at your workplace and watch this movie to relieve off all your stress. No further arguments.
Dance directors and choreographers need a special mention here. The whole world knows Sallu Bhai cannot do complicated steps, so they have given him funny and cranky steps which will literally make you roll on the floor and laugh.
Munni (Malaika Arora Khan), one might question as to why she was the item girl here even after having 2 kids. Well, i donot have an answer to that and i object her casting but yeah she does have the 'pivotless' hip shake which is sure to make your heads bang and jaws drop.
Stunts by S.Vijayan (probably 'FEFSI Vijayan' of kollywood) is damn amazing. Each stunt perfectly choreographed and acted out. Really deserves a special appraisal.
Cinematography by Mahesh Limaye (of 'Fashion' and 'C U at 9' fame) deserves special mention for his brilliant and artistic work. The combined effort of the editor and cinematographer adds up magic pixels on to the already glowing Sallu Bhai studded screen. Kudos!
All in all, Dabangg is wholesome entertainment, an adrenalin rush, an amalgam of all south indian commercial entertainers. Something which Bollywood lacked in a long time. Don't miss it. Watch it for Salman and the dialogues. 'Hum tumme itne ched karenge ki conphuse ho jaaoge ki saans kahaan se laen aur....... hehehehe.....'
PS: Please throw out all false allegations that Dabangg will only be enjoyed by Sallu Bhai's fans. It is completely wrong. Anyone with a decent comic sense should like the movie throwing all illogical mistakes out. Otherwise, the better option for the dislikers is to go create a world of their own and let live others in peace. And Dabangg means 'fearless' for people who don't know.
Rating: 3.5/5
