Stand against discrimination

Lots of hype surrounds this Shah Rukh – Kajol starrer. It did not matter to me and I wanted to see the film on big screen irrespective of opinions.

My few cents about ‘My Name is Khan’.

Not sure why some of the folks banished it as a ‘not worthy’ movie. I truly loved the message that was being conveyed. The message over shadowed every other aspect of the movie that, they dint matter to me.

Thinking back about performances.....

Khan did total justice to the role – contrary to what many feel, he did not overact

Kajol looked awesome and did her part well.

Music was pleasant and the songs sounded better with the picturization.

The rescue team arriving at Wilhelmina was very moving. What’s in a Bollywood movie, especially Karan Johar’s, without some melodrama.

It is unfair to compare this movie to ‘3 Idiots’ as both are in different leagues.

Overall, I enjoyed watching ‘My Name is Khan’ for telling a tale which is so true in any part of the world we live.

Kudos to the cast and crew of MNIK !
