Babaji’s Bajrangi Bhaijaan Review:
Went to watch Bajrangi Bhaijaan yesterday in the noon show,occupancy was around 75% for my show.Let’s begin:
Bajrangi Bhaijaan is a story of an innocent naive UP guy settled in Delhi and his love for a little mute pakistani girl which knows no limits.It is this love,his magnanimous spirit and some circumstances which leads Pawan Kumar Chaturvedi aka Bajrangi to take this girl to her parents in pakistan.
The film starts off well with the scenes of little girl Shahida(named after “Shahid” Afridi) and her parents.She’s taken to india with her mom to seek blessings for her in a much revered Dargah.On their return to Pakistan,the little girl somehow manages to miss the train.And there she is all alone,with no voice of her,lost in an alien country.
Arrives our Bhai,who is greeted with whistles and claps as usual.After clicking few selfies,Bajrangi meets the little girl Shahida who he now calls Munni(bhai still in Dabangg mode).He decides to take her home,on their way Bajrangi confronts some passengers in the bus who are greatly interested in knowing his back story,so bajrangi begins reciting his back story.This part really dragged on,full of forced comedy and irritated me after a point.The romantic part of salman and kareena(her cheeks appeared too pink) is a bit half baked one.There are funny scenes in this half though,like the one in which Munni is found grapping a chicken leg or the one where she starts dancing seeing Pak win over india(quite goofy though,they shown the same match at the beginning of the film too).Then there are quite a few emotional ones too,Munni(played by Harshali Malhotra) and Bajrangi share a cracking chemistry.The little girl is sure to win hearts just by her cuteness.Music is strictly average and nowhere in comparison to salman’s last few blockbusters.Tu chahiye,Chicken song(plain awful,was’nt required at all) does’nt work.First half was above average for me,though it ends quite well.
Second half is all about Bajrangi’s hardship,his journey to take Munni to pakistan without passport,Visa crossing border beneath the boundary wires.Kabir Khan has enjoyed quite a few cinematic liberties but most of them can be overlooked.Second half is much better than the first.The pace improves which was a bit sluggish throughout the first half,Salman’s looks’ improves,he now dons a rugged look which suits him much more than the clean shave one and last but not the least,this half has Nawazuddin Siddique! Believe me,he got the similar applause as was received by Salman.And when he joins Bajrangi and munni,they create some of the most memorable moments of the film.Bhar do jholi song works well.Last 45 min. of the film are really high on emotional quotient.You feel for Bajrangi when he gets bashed by the police,infact there was stun silence in the theatre which proves the audience were quite moved.The climax is one of the best I have witnessed in recent times,last few scenes were too poignant for me to handle.And yes Bajrangi Bhaijaan made me shed few tears.And I loved the song Tu Jo Mila sung by my fav. KK which plays at the end of the film.
On the whole Bajrangi Bhaijaan is Salman’s best film in years and it deserves to be lauded,audience were quite happy with happy with film which makes me to say without any doubt that at the boxoffice Bajrangi Bhaijaan should cross Dhoom 3,though surpassing PK would prove difficult.And if it sustains well on the weekdays,then it could well be Salman’s first 300crs grosser.
Overall it’s a 3.75/5 from my side!
Lifetime should be around 250-270 crores!
Good.
Although considering higher screen count and ticket price in comparison to KICK, i expected film to cross 30 cr+.
I hope film will come on its own today and collect 40cr+.
It will be salman’s first 500 cr ww gross film and second biggest worldwide grosser after PK.
The record will be broken next year by FAN!BB is a gud film so it will collect about 225-240 crores.Not more than tht because of no repeat value.
4 Salman films in the top 10…woohooo
40+ today…ATBB
Good start…as its last friday of Ramdan.
Its better than Kick & PK.
All reviews are positive & if talk about WOM then people unabled to stop them from praising film.
Sure strong WOM is ensure that this film going long run at BO.
Bajrangi Bhaijaan! OMG!!! What a movie!!!
Better than All ‘Panwala’ movies!
270 – 300 Cr. Confirm!
it will collect more than 38+crore today. Weekend 100+.
Reply me…this is a big qustn..? Bahubali non holiday 50 cr it is possible..with 4000 screen if possible so how much occupancy ..??
