Friday is one of the best days at college. The classes get over quickly so you can spend the rest of the day catching up on your dreams at home or you can hang out with your friends. This friday as Samarth says, ‘It was your funeral. You chose it.’ Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif’s not so anticipated flick Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani (I need to a deep breath while naming the flick) released this friday. I was more impressed with the Rajkumar Santoshi tag while a lot of girls were interested in the hair weaving chocolate hero Ranbir Kapoor (yes it’s true). My first mistake. So the entire campus is set loose by some insane time-table setting authority. Faridabad is flooded with bags-and-handbags-carrying crowd with a desperate look on their faces as they battle it out at the box office to get tickets. Cell phones became life savers as groups split to different multiplexes hoping to catch the latest show. If only the youth of the nation worked this hard the other way around. So we also decided to opt for a Faridabad multiplex itself. My second mistake.
We managed to get tickets at Inox, Faridabad. It’s located at the Crown Interiorz mall. The food court there claims it’s the biggest in the entire NCR region (yeah the biggest you-know-what). They say the first fifteen minutes of a movie can make it or break it. My first fifteen minutes of the movie were spent settling down and telling my brain that I ‘am’ in a multiplex. Why? Flashback – 15 minutes ago. As the gates for the hall opened, the crowd went crazy. People were pushing everyone 360 degrees. Doesn’t make sense I agree but this is Faridabad, people will kill you for no reason whatsoever. I’ve had better experience with a second class travel in an Indian Railways train than this.
Anyways let’s come back to the movie. Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani could be just a five minute flick. Let me save you the multiplex moolah. No I won’t give out any spoilers but let me prepare your mind for it. Guy and a bunch of ugly looking friends live in Happyville, as usual they’re uneducated and well they have no money, guy falls in love with a girl, she loves someone else, stupid things happen, some more stupidity, girl realizes she loves the chocolate boy who saved her life. Ta da! What were you expecting? What was I expecting? Ranbir Kapoor may have come out as a better actor in the flick while Katrina’s Hindi is still questionable. Raj Kumar Santoshi has cheated the audience this time. The soundtrack is boring except for a few tracks here and there.
This is indeed an Ajab Prem Ki Boring Kahaani!
My rating – 1/5
