I’m not a big fan of Salman Khan, nor do I feel the chubby Katrina look-alike Zarine Khan can act but you cannot resist catching a Bollywood flick living in this part of the country. The glamor just pulls you in. Salman Khan’s Veer is an epic story. A tale of love and a brave warrior. A tale that doesn’t leave you flabbergasted, a tale that can put you into depression.
I believe for most of you the review ended with the last sentence of the previous paragraph. But then you’re too keen enough for a big-ass review of Veer you’re reading this. So why doesn’t Veer work for Salman? Poor direction, pathetic screenplay, a story that’s more than just inspired by major period films and then a soundtrack that’s way too vague.
Apparently the story credits reveal Salman Khan wrote Veer by himself. I can bet Salman had seen too much of Gladiator, Troy and even Bollywood epic Kranti while writing the story for Veer. He’s not only screwed up the story but he’s made a mockery of these great movies also. He could have been better off writing a spoof which could have been a major blockbuster. But no he had to write Veer and project himself as the great Bollywood Gladiator.
Zarine Khan, the much talked about Katrina Kaif look-alike, needs acting lessons. Add to that regular gym sessions to drop off all that ugly fat on her. Zarine had been dragged into the screenplay for nothing. The poor girl can’t even deliver a decent dialogue without looking so fake. Colossal disaster.
If you’re planning to catch this movie anytime soon you might want to rethink on your options. Veer isn’t half of what Salman said it’ll be. One piece of advice for Salman Khan would be, writing stories for movies just isn’t for you, not at this moment. Also dragging Aishwarya or Katrina look-alike to generate hype just won’t work now.
