"No point in bringing personal intellect" - Sonakshi on critic bashing of 'R... Rajkumar'

By Joginder Tuteja, MovieTalkies.com, 18 December 2013 09:23 AM IST

R... Rajkumar has sailed smooth to turn into a good success for Sonakshi Sinha who would be signing off the year with a smile.

She firmly believes though that it is high time critics start getting much closer to the reality of what audience wants rather than bring in their own personal thought process while reviewing a film. Though she wasn't overtly bothered by the way R... Rajkumar was massacred by one and all, she did feel that it was rather uncalled for.

"If only some people out there stop bringing their personal intellect into play and instead see a film from audience point of view, this large disconnect would dilute," she feels, "Otherwise there is no point in criticising something for the sake of it."

This is the reason why she likes to be connected to audience view Twitter and with a follower base as huge as two million, it is a much quicker access towards getting some genuine runtime feedback.

"The best part is that today we actors are all so well connected, that we get reviews from audience right there on Twitter. Aapko wahi ke wahi tasalli ho jaati hai ki aap theek jaa rahe ho," reasons Sonakshi, "When you get direct feedback from the horse's mouth, it is all the more reliable."

She would next be seen in Holiday and Action Jackson, both of which would release in the first half of 2015.

Totally agree with this..RR is a clear cut case of sabotage by critics...one one hand you give 0 stars to a clean masala movie..on the other invite Rohit Shetty to the director's round table..Double standards much..🤢😆

When critics appreciate the film-Who cares about BO numbers? Most of the films in the 100 crore club are trash..This film will be remembered even after 50 years
When critics trash the film but it does well at the BO-Who cares about these pseudo-intellectuals? What matters is that the film was appreciated by the masses, the general public for whom the film was made..On your face you useless critics

😆

If it hardly achieved hit status and it received terrible reviews, then Sonakshi should be the last person analyzing critics. Since when did the masses love R...Rajkumar? Most audience reviews weren't that great either.

I guess its about personal perspective, lootera is not only loved by critics but everyone that I have spoken to loved the movie, it just wasn't watched by people in the cinema which is why it had poor BO figures.
Rajkumar may have done well at BO but a lot of people I spoke to didn't really like it.
A lot of movies that do well at the BO are unfortunately due to popularity of the star in the movie, not due to the content, fans are crazy about their faves and will do everything to make sure they are at the top of the BO.

In which world are you?..have you seen the Audience review vids?..😆 ..all one is talking about is the way people are clapping & whistling..the way they are praising the action avatar of Shahid..the songs..


Many sites have already declared RR as hit..it is very near to achieving the status..the fact that in spite of the sabotage done by critics..it is doing well..proves that the Aam junta is loving it..😳
