i liked the second half more than the first half..
in first half it felt like there were lots of patches put together which didnt quite blend properly..
but second half was much much better...
over all i think it was average film... didnt like the story much cuz it didnt have that grip that hold ppl but loved SRK and until yesterday i didnt like deepika.. i dunno y she jus didnt seem gud enough for me and so when i walked in the theatre i had absolutely no expectations from deepika and after the film i was pleasently surprised that she did pretty well.. she looked grogeous..

another thing i liked bout this film is the songs... 5 main songs of the film and all were brilliant..
👏 this one is for my fav SRK

Finally I watched the film (sorry GG I ate dessert first😆). I already knew what the content is so it was more like checking out the treatment Farah Khan gave the film and I must say I am happy. I never expected this to be a great film so I wasn't disappointed. It was goofy, sardonic and over-the-top funny😆.

Spoiler ahead

Whole first half was hilarious and reminded me how dramatic everything was back in 70s from dialogues to costumes to sets. Kirron Kher was over-the-top because she and Omi were this filmy mother-son who ate, drank and dreamt Hindi films😆. The second half was where the movie dragged. Deepika's voice was original in first half as Shantipriya but dubbed in the second half as Sandy. May be to show that both are two different people.

The scenes which left me laughing so much till my jaws hurt and also the ones which I loved

1. The music when the title appeared......so 70s..
2. Makhkhi ko hata--
3. Kirron's over the top acting
4. Manoj Kumar's driving license
5. Deepika's entry. In the Sindoor scene I thought it was Aishwarya Rai doing sp. appearance

6. When she comes to meet Omi in her polka dot dress.
7. Omiswami doing Rajnikant style Mind it. Hilarious
8. I found her acting natural and I couldn't see anyone playing that 70s heroine with so much grace and her dancing skills are amazing.
9. Arjun Rampal was fabulous. Looked like Vinod Khanna of that time. He was the suprise package who pulled of Mukesh Mehra with aplomb.

10. Reason for dard-e-disco because hero has no body parts😆
11. Mohabbatman
12. Filmfare Awards nite was crazzzzzzzzzy.. All the actors were over-the-top just like last year's awards nite.

----------------------

Highlights:

1. The whole 70s theme was Farah's creativity and very well done along with computer generated sequences of Shantipriya dancing with Top &0s actors.
2. Arjun Rampal as Mukesh Mehra was a revalation.
3. Deepika as Shantipriya was flawless.
4. Kirron Kher as dramatic mother in first half and the normal one in second half did her job well and so did Shreyas Talpade in a small role.
5. Filmfare sequence was well thought and very similar to last year's. SRK clearly laughed at himself when he got nominations for 2 films which were so identical😆 also every other actor took the scene in right spirit.
6. Aankhon mein teri and agar main kahoon are beautiful songs

----------------------------

What I didn't like and some bloopers:

1. There was zilch chemistry between SRK and Deepika in the second half where they were supposed to be romantically linked. The track was not developed at all.
2. Even in the first half it is just one way romance though they looked good together.
3. In the end the whole crowd which came for muhurat shot disappeared when Mukesh fell down. Where did they go?
4. The song in the end was boring and too long. There was no need for stretching the scene too long.
5. There were many shortcomings in the second half. Shirish Kunder (Farah's Husband) didn't do well with the editing.
6. Pappu appears so suddenly in the second half.
7. SRK looked jaded as a 30 year old star son in second half.

----------------------------

Why some didn't like first half😊:

1. Most I believe are not familiar with the Nirupa Roy kind mothers and Desai films where every emotion is overly dramatic. It worked back then but now if you see then you will laugh at it. So the first half scenes between mother-son and Omi doing 'bhagoooo' and all everything were inspired by that time.

2. Manoj Kumar getting beaten up could have been avoided. Most yesteryear actors appeared and joked about themselves. Some actors like DevAnand (played by a dupe) were shown coming for premiere of Dremy girl which was fine too but only Manoj Kumar scene was taken too far.

3. Second half deserved better editing.

----------------

My verdict:

9/10 for fun-filled first half with beautiful songs and emotional scenes between Deepika and SRK; 6/10 for second half.

It was a fun film devoid of logic just like MHN. I will watch the first half tons of times and in the second half I will fast-forward it to Filmfare awards.

@ Maya_M: What a lovely review 👏 I agree with almost everything you said here!

4. The song in the end was boring and too long. There was no need for stretching the scene too long. I think I'm the only person who liked it - I thought it was choreographed very nicely and Shaan sang it very well 👏
5. There were many shortcomings in the second half. Shirish Kunder (Farah's Husband) didn't do well with the editing.
6. Pappu appears so suddenly in the second half.
7. SRK looked jaded as a 30 year old star son in second half.

I just came back after watching OSO and it's an O.K-O.K movie. i thought it was a complete remake of Karz with a lot of masala in it. No doubt that it's an entertaining movie and it's mass appealing. the masses will absolutely love it because it has a happy ending and not to forget one and only King khan.
Deepika was good enough for a debut and shah rukh was awesome. but somehow it doesn't click with me.
(spoiler ahead) shantipriya's soul stays in the same castle for 30 years waiting for mukesh(arjun rampal)so that she could kill him is extremely filmy. Okay, maybe the 70's era was filmy because it was meant to be like that, but the 2007 era was way too filmy for me.
rating-**

I finally saw OSO!! For me deepika is the star of OSO! and also shreya acted well, srk was fab to add humour and the role of arjun is the best from his career!

Deepika emoted both the characters so well though sandy was my fav, and comic scenes were brilliant, music was awesome!! and i completely enjoyed the film 😳

One word-AWESOME
I LOVED IT....OSO was so rocking

Acting- I thought that each and everyone of te film was rocking..
Deepika- was just so fantastic... 👏 but I was very sad that her voice was dubbed 😭 loved her as both Shanti and Sandy

SRK-What to say...rocking as usual...I liked more as Om Kapoor than Om Prakash 😳

Shreyas and Kirron- were so funny...
Arjun-was awesome as well..loved his role

Sets- was fantastic....awesomely done!

Songs-were awesome as well...loved Deewangi Deewangi and SRK-Kajol 😳

Hats off to Farah Khan..I oved both of her movies and I'm sure she'll create more rockers 👏 👏 👏
