Awww Nimmi, those postcards are so cute and funny! LOL.... I'm gonna check out this website then!

All the best for your results! *hugs*


Here's a rare non-gushy review I found about LAK in the bolly forum.....LOL

[quote]I would here like to offer Farah Khan [ Images ] a special and awestruck citation for making us believe Deepika Padukone is an actress. She cannily used the undisputably attractive girl as a lovely mannequin in Om Shanti Om [ Images ], and none of us realised just how plastic this Barbie really is. She has a great smile, dimples and all, but that's really it. I feel for Imtiaz to see his dialogue butchered by his heroine, heartbreak heightening when she murders a lovely 'break me' line. Both Imtiaz's earlier films featured heroines of tremendous talent, and one wishes this one also had an actual actress.

Saif does well but his character is wishy-washy, offensive in both the brash way he speaks to Rishi Kapoor as well as the callousness with which he takes his British girlfriend to India and packs her on a tourbus. Still, he does make the lines work. Rishi, on the other hand, is impossible not to like and even if he seems like he's repeating the same old good-natured romantic spiel film after film, at least he's doing it very well indeed. And it is Harleen Sr who truly takes the breath away. (See what I mean about the importance of a real actress?)


Love Aaj Kal is a harmless, watchable film -- sad, because it could have been truly special. It has its moments in the first half, while the second half is an over-melodramatic drag. Or have I missed the point, and is Imtiaz making an incisive comment on the nature of Bollywood masala, saying be it today or yesterday, our romances stay as cheesy as they are breezy?[/quote]

LOL @ the review :P Hmm Deepika's gorgeous.. i woudn't call her plastic and I don't think she's as bad as they're making it sound but I haven't seen LAK yet but even thenn I don't think she's that bad from the promos and trailers and alll.

LOL Shells.....well so far Deepika has never managed to impress me with her acting skills.....she's a pleasant enough girl otherwise....very pretty with a charming smile.....but I just feel she never manages to look natural and spontaneous.....

I haven't seen LAK either so I guess I'll watch it and then give my opinion on how she did in this movie.....I'm intrigued seeing all these gushy reviews about how Deepika was the 'surprise package' of LAK.....lol

I also have a certain amount of expectations now toooo soo I hope it's not sooo bad =(

The problem is ppl either try to make Deepika sound like the most promising debutant/star of the decade or they say that she is like an attractive manequin, cannot act and is completely expessionless...

Lol what I dont get is why can't their be a middle ground? Like I watched the movie yday, and tho I didn't get the story (due to reasons mentioned earlier in this thread). I thought her acting was passable, not am-azing... but not pathetic either... There were few instances that she really impressed me, and few instances where she was rather bland/artificial and could've done better....

LOL Sonia.....well I wouldn't personally slot myself in either of those two categories.....I don't hate Deepika......but I just find her quite bland for the most part.....in all her other movies....Maybe she was better in LAK like everyone is saying....but the few dialogue promos I saw frankly didn't impress me that much....it's like you said...she's passable at best....I don't see a wow factor to her acting skills.

Most newbies aren't perfect actors off the bat ofcourse.....so I'm not expecting that either.....but everyone starts off with some kind of spark....some natural thing somehow.....I mean dude....Socha na tha was Ayesha Takia's first movie and in that itself she was a million times better than Deepika has managed after doing THREE movies so far......LOL

I like Sonam....but I'm not blind about her either to say she's a great actress.....no, I don't think she can really act much at this point either....but she's got a spontaneous infectiousness to her personality that gives her a spark.......

@ Sonia; You have an agree button right? I'd like to hit that pleaseeeee! :) So far, i'm at middle ground.. as far as her acting goes. Her previous films have been not the best.. average I'd say.. but I think there are people worse than her out there in bollywood so I don't see why she's getting so criticized :S

I just couldn't help ROFL in the bit where he's doing those pelvic thrust like moves to 'chura ke dil mera' and then when the girl sees him, he goes, 'gaana hi kuch aisa hai'....LMAOOOOOOOOO
