Make lists and take them with you!<br /><br />And this hero does not exactly sermonise - I did not mean to give that impression! He just reacts so strongly to everything, I kept hoping his reactions would be a bit more moderate. The cabaret dancer bit did take me by surprise - the film seemed so matter of fact about it!bollyviewerhttp://bollyviewer-oldisgold.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5149142221218445999.post-73468161940182402642010-12-20T12:35:32.275+01:002010-12-20T12:35:32.275+01:00This sound sto be simply great. have added it to m...This sound sto be simply great. have added it to my shopping list. the only thing standing between me and hours of pleasure (;-)is my forgetfulness.<br />The songs are good aren't they?<br />And a heroine, who doesn't apologise and and gets an apology and sisters turning into cabaret dancers without<br />regret and a tear in the eye can only be termed as GREAT!<br />I am used to indian heroes going over the top sermonizing, but this will be good, since there is a hope that this one willf all flat on his face while doing it!harveyhttp://harveypam.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5149142221218445999.post-71383654784821284202010-12-20T08:48:18.054+01:002010-12-20T08:48:18.054+01:00Banno, he actually does not moralise.

He just seems to take things a bit too much to heart and takes the <i>whole</i> film to learn that people can have human failings and still be good!<br /><br /><b>dustedoff</b>, worry not - this is no <i>Jahan Pyar Miley</i>! He does not sermonise. I just wish he was a bit less of a Devdas sort - drinking-n-gambling for a broken heart is so silly (though he is NOT a jerk like Devdas)! But the eye candy is superb and the songs are lovely - so it is <i>paisa-vasool</i>, after all!<br /><br /><b>memsaab</b>, certainly Shashi is pretty here, and he angsts so prettily too! :D It does leave me feeling that it could be a lot better, too. I guess it's the whole boy-coming-of-age thing that is bit of an old trope!<br /><br /><b>Sharmi</b>, which one - Shashi-Tanuja, Shashi-Nanda or Shashi-Naaz? ;D You'll get a lot of pretty pairs here!<br /><br /><b>Beth</b>, you are perfectly right! He never once brings up <i>izzat</i>! That marks quite a change for director Suraj Prakash (of <i>Jab Jab Phool Khile</i> fame) and naturally makes Shashi's character very progressive! ;D I can totally understand your loving it - I used to, too. I just prefer my heroes to be a bit more worldly-wise...Bollyviewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17270927806254662068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5149142221218445999.post-53028551011297676002010-12-18T17:03:38.104+01:002010-12-18T17:03:38.104+01:00I love this movie but it certainly does have an (u...I love this movie but it certainly does have an (un)healthy dose of hypocrisy and I completely agree that moralizing Shashi is his most unappealing form.

I liked many things about it, but also was left just feeling very let down although I couldn't pinpoint why.<br /><br />It's definitely worth a watch, and I think I'll give it another try too. Shashi's character is annoying but he's pretty and the women in it as you say are nicely fully realized :)memsaabnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5149142221218445999.post-11803803096068982052010-12-18T14:44:17.254+01:002010-12-18T14:44:17.254+01:00I agree with Banno - Shashi Kapoor is hard to bear...I agree with Banno - Shashi Kapoor is hard to bear when he's being preachy (come to think of it, there are few people I can stand being preachy!). But the women sound refreshingly non-typical Hindi film. And it looks like a lot of eye candy too! ;-)<br /><br />Plus I'd watch it for the entertainment, I guess. Am adding it to my list.
