maybe you should actually watch the movie before commenting. he wasnt emotional with deepu, when he goes to the classroom he pauses looking around as he does not know which boy deepu is . deepu actually comes up to him and he was hardly emotional. he took priyanka to see him so he could convince her he was vijay as he needed her help and didnt need another enemy.
and in the paan song he was running from the police and he doesnt actually eat any paan.he was also drunk when doing the song.
and at the end he says there wasnt anything on the disc he gave to boman. also he is the real don so the contacts etc on the disc he would know anyway.
i thought it was quite good and there were little hints that he was the don the whole way through. in the original don everything is revealed straight away but its not so with this one so theres more suspense. when you see the last scene all the pieces of the jigsaw fit. that is, if you have a brain
People like Shahrukh and Farhan think that just by giving oversmart twists and turns and by donning expensive clothes they can project a bigger Don.
Are thet trying to make a fool out of public?
If the second shahrukh in the film was original Don, then why would he get emotional with the child Dipu, why would he sing banarasi paanwala song and most critically why would he submit the electronic diary to DCO Boman Irani?
One feels ashamed that today the natural essence and creativity of cinema is getting eroded.
Shahrukh is better than Dilipkumar (Devdas), but far from Amitabh Bacchan. He could have come more close to Amitabh but director fails him, story writer fails him.
Shahrukh is a better actor but he needs little luck extra to be this action hero and should gather some seriousness.
I dont understand, for a tribute why farhan akhtar should waster 15-20 crores? Give a cheque to Amitabh instead of one crore.......
Kareena is gr8, Priyanaka is gr8, Boman is ok (unexpectedly not gr8), and Arjun Rampal is ok.
I saw today with least expectations but i was in for a surprise, the movie is surprisingly good. Farhan makes everything look good - actors, the locations, nice cars, girls were ok - could dance like zeenat and helen. Anyways, the movie was really worth the watch, action was very very good. Its not like one-side bashing. The martial arts was good, not that refined but this is a HINDI movie. Shahrukh is very good in the role, nice digession from his usual lover boy roles. Bravo Shahrukh finally you listened to public. Movies definately worth the watch just for Shahrukh and Farhan Aktar's Direction and for the Paan song (Disclaimer: I am not a fan of Shahrukh)
i think the movie is excellent,very well made and srk should do more action roles then the same old loverboy roles.he should venture out of the yash raj and karan johar camp.i think his best movie till today is swadesh and now he rocks in don.the khaike paan... song is mindblowing and very well choreographed.
keep it up farhan akhtar.dch was a cult movie,lakshya was for the youth of today and don is a perfect tribute to big b and salim-javed.
No day can any actor match the Original Big B. The Original is the Best any day. SRK Flopped. The Original has the best casting done & new anyday is the worst casting done. It was salim-javed baby written with great pains and new flopped with many loopholes in the story.
