Review of Heroes (2008) by Kushagr A — 23 Oct 2008
After the disastrous 'Kyon ho gaya naa' and the not-so disastrous 'Nanhe Jaisalmer', Samir Karnik comes up with a unique film, based on a similar premise as 'Motorcycle Diaries', but it isn't really a copy.
The film deals with 2 friends from a film school (Vatsal Seth and Sohail Khan) who embark upon a journey to meet three families and they end up discovering national pride.
The film is high on patriotic booze, but it ends up being a meagre preachy take on it and not a realistic one.
The first chapter including Priety-Salman is the only story that deserves a special mention. Priety Zinta is the perfect scene-stealer and does a fine job. Salman Khan too acts (for a change).
The other stories - Bobby-Sunny and Mithun-Dino are nothing worth mentioning.
The music by Monty and Sajid-Wajid is a total dissapointment while none of the performances other than Salman and Priety are worthy of being called performances.
Only Zinta fans, go for it... it is one of her best performnances.
