FARAH AND SANJAY FIGHT FOR SUPREMACY

In the News

Both the filmmakers are busy in promoting their movies now, and are not necessarily interested in talking about the other. At the very mention of Farah, Bhansali simply folds his both hands and takes his leave, and when we quiz Farah about Bhansali, she's quick to say that it's only 'Om Shanti Om' that she's promoting and nothing else. So, the war has been continuing 'behind the scenes'. This will end on Friday (Nov 9th) when both will release their movies before the final verdict of the viewers. Interestingly, theater halls exhibiting both the movies have their houses full in advance. Let's keep our fingers crossed until Friday in the hope that both would fare equally well.

I dont know why SLB is saying I have created a superstar in ranbir kapoor.....

As far as I saw in the film.... Ranbir gives an impression of Hrithik from the way he talks, dances, walks, gives expressions.... it would not be an exaggeration to call him a copycat of Hrithik (though it can be natural).....

I personally thought Ranbir was brilliant.. I thought he walked like Raj Kapoor, talked like Rishi Kapoor and emoted like Neetu Kapoor... The character that he played expressed all the shades so well...

Sonam was far far better than Ranbir as far as expressions and acting goes and She will reach milestones for sure.... (I see her in league of madhuri and kajol) 😃

Oh I thought Sonam had far more complex shades in her character, and she came out winning emoting them... Her eyes are as expressive as Ranbir's if not more... and the undertones of her complex character have come out very very well...

Kudos to both the newcomers for such a refreshing debut...👏👏👏

Saawariya was a very well acted love saga..... and It was a good art movie.... however not commercially viable....

SLB did the biggest mistake by going overboard with Advertising expenses.... eventhough, I think cost of making film was in budget as there was only one set and most movie is around the bridge 😊

I think Saawariya is lot lot more than that.. its like an open book poetry which is completely open to interpretations... I am glad that SLB kept so much scope in the movie for us viewers to interpret it and explore the core of the movie with our own interpretations...

I think SLB did not make any mistakes personally... The sets were lavish and I could identify atleast 5 different grand sets that he had to put up... They are a revelation in themselves... I think what really went against the movie was that people went to see the movie with a pre-conceived mindset of the high melodrama that SLB has offered them before... I also thought that there was this completely unfair comparison between 2 complete different genres of movies that were perhaps even targeting different target audience.. The uncanny uniformity of the film being run down by 'critics' does tend to give an indication of some foul play as well...

Anyways, the movie had recovered its cost in the very first weekend of its release.. I just wished that people were more open to accept experimental cinema rather than run of the mill films, that would actually lead to us viewers enjoying different kinds of movies...

I have my own interpretation of the grand movie and I personally think that SLB has surpassed his earlier best Khamoshi with this one.. Kudos to Bhansali for giving us Saawariya...

It was almost a decade back and perhaps the only time when all four of us were together and just by ourselves. Your first crush? My mum's friend who used to come home wearing sexy minis.
