Dhoom 3 - Money grows on trees

I watched dhoom 3 few days ago and did not like it. My taste in movies i guess, has changed and even if hadn't i would have found dhoom 3 a total waste of time and money.

Some people are calling dhoom 3 an escapist romp, well I don't know. I feel Krrish is an escapist romp, most of the Mahesh Bhatt movies are escapist romps. Dhoom 3 on the other hand is just a way to show how you can effectively burn 150 crore rupees without achieving anything and still mint money out of that nothing.

Personally i really liked the earlier movies in the series. Dhoom, because i was a teen then and i had seen superbikes and that kind of hollywoodesque action first time in bollywood and Dhoom 2 becuase of Hrithik Roshan and it's potential to surprise me at that time. Dhoom 3 on the other hand is a failure, both in terms of surprise, and action. Nothing new or exciting in terms of action could be seen.

I have stopped expecting any thing even close to good acting from Abhishek Bachchan but Amir Khan was a disappointment, that after watching his strong performance in Talaash. The director Vijay Krishna Acharya i think is fit for the tag of the next Anubhav Sinha of Bollywood, only thing is that Anubhav Sinha is decently original in his showoff business.

Anyhow this movie is a success, and this fact, i think must have made Satyajit Ray twist in his grave uncomfortably.

उफान

सपने टूटते हैं  तो दिल टूट जाता है, दर्द का दरिया उमड़ता है कभी, कभी गुस्से का उफान, खालीपन सा घर कर लेता है  सीने में और फिर हम फिर उस खालीप...
