5 Things You Missed In Madras Cafe

You would think Madras Cafe is about the assassination of the Prime Minister of India but you couldn't be further from the truth. While this film does have something like that thrown in to the plot, it has more to do with how everything Major Vikram (John Abraham) touches, promptly, blows up in his pretty little face.

Here are 5 Things You Probably Missed in Madras Cafe:

1. The "national level, earth shattering, ground breaking, mind blowing conspiracy" is actually a pie chart. It is also not a colour print out. Oh wait...was that the conspiracy?

A general consensus on the reaction to this was

2. Everything, literally everything, that Major Vikram touches, looks at, calls, accidentally breathes on, looses life. Don't believe us? Jog your memory - The Arms Deal with the dead sidekick, his wife (who also happened to be the best actor in the film), the entire contingent that goes to capture Bhaskaran, we wonder what would've happened if he didn't go to save the Prime Minister. He also happens to be "RAW's best agent". Pfft. He puts Man of Steel to shame.

3. Nargis Fakri. Let's face it, as hot as Nargis Fakri is, she is no actor. Modelled after Anita Pratap, Nargis fails so miserably, it was like watching the zombie apocalypse!

4. Everyone in SriLanka can somehow speak Hindi. We understand the limitations of cinema but you know...translators? No? Ok.

5. Get in on this! The coolest part of the film was that the "code" that an entire team of "agents" had to decode was actually a couple of words spelled backwards. Just when we started to regain faith after Himmatwala!
