![]() ![]() It is because Kabir takes the generous leap of faith from the ground of reality where India and Pakistan stand today. The film is a good old school melodrama where messaging is more important than the form, where eyes go moist even when you know things are going larger than life. The moulvi is not averse to saying Jai Shri Ram and the simpleton hero believes that being Hanuman is not such a bad label in Pakistan as well, for the monkeys that he greets in temples are found in mosques as well! Director Kabir Khan breaks this mould to generate a set of characters who wear their faith on one sleeve and humanity on the other with no friction in between. ![]() And the supporting cast’s religious identity comes forth only when the director has to show them taking a rigid or fundamentalist stand. The market dynamics are such that these days the hero has to be an alien to visit a temple. You will NOT see too much of Salman Khan in the movie! Probably because the little girl, Harshaali Malhotra, who plays the role of Shahida, steals the show!

The little girl lights up every frame of the movie, and mind it, because she doesn't have a single dialogue, no monologue, nothing throughout the movie!

His unmatched comic timing including serious scenes are a complete delight to watch!įor me the stars of the Bajrangi Bhaijaan are Harshaali, Nawaz and Salman (in that order).One of the Hindi film staples that got lost in the wave of rom com was the hero’s dialogue with god.

When Nawaz says, "Kya Pakistan mein bhi Bajrangi madad karenge?" you will realize how insignificant religious and cultural differences become when your intentions are good, especially in times of crisis!Ĭricket lovers will have a blast in the movie, and that signifies that the writers of this film aimed for an out and out entertaining masala blockbuster! What I loved about the movie is the detailing with which director Kabir Khan has successfully painted a sensitive picture of Hindu-Muslim conflict and related apprehensions in the Indian society! From vegetarian Hindus being intolerant about non-vegetarian people, the strange logic of not renting homes to Muslims and entering religious places when you don't belong to that sect, Bajrangi Bhaijaan is a commendable effort on the part of the entire crew to have attempted such a insightful topic! Bajrangi Bhaijaan carefully reveals the current and never-ending crisis between India and Pakistan. Very intelligently weaved into a predictable yet intriguing, BB is the story of a man who pledges to make sure that a little Pakistani girl reaches home safely. ![]() ![]() With a very simple plot which has already been revealed in the intense trailer, the movie revolves around how Pavan Kumar Chauturvedi (Salman) aka Bajrangi comes across a little Pakistani girl, whom he names Munni! Who would have thought that the raunchy item song name from Salman's movie Dabangg could be the name of Bollywood's most exceptional child artist (Harshaali Malhotra) who plays the character of a girl who gets lost at India-Pakistan border!
