80% of cinema was full 😲 never expected that.

1. 2 kids plays well and story has has depth follwoing Indo-pak war to free Banglasesh. And then the hardship for kids.

2. The entry of grown up Arjun and Ranveer is predictable.

3. The way they rule Culcutta and still be happy-go-lucky guys didnt gell well with the story.

4. Priyanka's entry and following scenes provide fun and light momemnts.

5. Pre interval twist when friends becomes foes.. was well done.

6. Post interval its was all action.. emotoinally charged.

7. I wud have loved to go that enomisity fo longer.. but it wasnt

8. 2 songs post interval killed the pace of the movie.

9. The twist which my wifey figured out b4 interval came true 😆

10. the climax was streatched.. we knew whats gonna happen.

More in next post. no spoilers.

Performance-

Surprice. Arjun is the winner. Mind u.. i m not fan any of the 3 leads. But Arjun's character scatch had more shades than Ranveer's. Ranveer didnt have many one liners to make ppl laugh and didnt look the part of the gunday (mafia, outlaws who run Caulcutta city)... However whatever he was given he did it well. Priyanka was perfect in every scenes. Her nose job bothered my wife a bit but not me.. 😆

SPOILLER ALERT; Okay, wont make it obvious. Just recall Dhhom 2. 😉

BO verdict prediction- HIT.

REcommendation- if u r fan of any of te 3 leads, watch it on big screen. If u r not.. dont expect too much and u can enjoy the big screen.. or small screen. Upto u.

Happy Valentines day. Bromance is more stronger than romance is the msg os the movie. 😆

Liked your review, what did you think of Irrfan's character? From reviews, I figured that his role was very weak and he didn't have the space to perform, which kinda sucks coz I was really looking forward to him in the film.

Totally looking forward to Ranveer and Arjun's bromance, and I just love watching Priyanka onscreen. Huge girl crush on her since her Aitraaz days, and who wouldn't wanna see Irrfan Khan onscreen. He has such a commanding voice, I loved his voiceover in the trailer. So yeah I'm totally looing forward to Gunday.

I'm watching it on Tuesday, coz I get the student discount. *hides face* 😆 I'm cheap okay, plus I wasn't going to get an off from work before Tuesday.

Watching Mahabharat on star plus. hehe

Yeah, Irfan as a narrator was good but his role was so weak. Thats one of the minus of the film.

I think Ranveer fans didnt like when i said Arjun stole the show. Its not abt their overall acting abilities, its just that Arjun's has many shades and he nailed it. Ranveer didnt. He didnt even look like Gunda.

Priyankka was flawless in her performance. Dare I say, she did better than Irfan.

Clue. Dhoom 2.

Yeah I've read many conflicting reviews where some said Ranveer shines like a diamond, others said Arjun nails it. I'd have to say I'm leaning towards Ranveer, as the silent brooding Bikram from what I've seen in promos and interviews. Will try and watch from an unbiased POV. 😊
The colourful clothing is something I'm gonna watch out for in the film. 😆 Priyanka was good? Aah that's what I wanted to hear, you just made my day. 😆 The reviews have been disheartening so far for her performance. Some say she looks like a 2014 misfit in a 70s film, others say she had no role. Oh well, who cares I'm just going to fangirl over her dancing at the very least. 😆
No no no clues please, I wanna keep the suspense till I catch the film.

I hope Gunday isn't too action-ish, really not fond of those kind of films. 🥱
