NO one can beat the original DON neither will this duplicate come any closer to it.But Hats off to Farhan akthar for the bravery for trying to climb this "mount everest."

Excuse me??? If ur talking bad about Farhan,take back your words.Farhan had a good reputation and HAS a good reputation and so does SRK.Farhan loved this film and has watched it more than 45 times.So naturally he is really influenced by this film.And you will know all this if u are a give-life fan of Farhan.
FARHN and SRK has spoiled their own good reputation

Why everybody wants to make Remake ?. If directors are planning to make remake then why they are not making the remake of Past years FLOP film and try to make a better film so that what people didn't liked on those FLOP film can watch the improved one.
To make Remake of FLOP movie and crete it into HIT or SUPERHIT is better than to make remake of SUPERHIT movie and convert it into a FLOP movie.
If FARHAN AKTHAR and SRK wants themselves to prove as a brilliant director and actor then they should have taken a subject of FLOP MOVIE to create it a big SUPERHIT MOVIE. By making "DON" they have spoiled their reputation and has given a boring film to the viewers which they will realise after watching the reviews and public opinion. The NEW "DON" is no match to the original "DON"

I don't agree with you. SRK has not spoiled his reputation, in fact he has lived up to his FLOP reputation.
I feel bad about Farhan. He has done the same what Ramu has done by remaking Shiva or Rajkumar Santoshi made Family.

I dont understand why people with very strong dislike are allowed to comment, educated person can see already Farhan and Shahrukh have told to everybody as "This is a tribute to Amitabh Bachchan". Infact Movie is good and everybody knows it is difficult to be compared with a Character which has got the success 28 years ago that too for a actor like Shahrukh as always people have anticipations to deliver something outstanding.

if its honest attempt...why don? specially when bad directors and actors like farhan and srk know that they are not able to deliver what people want.
1.Lion is the King Of Beasts. Similarly, Bachchan is the King of Actors.
2.With the help of the very large group, hyenas can mess with a single Female-Lion or 2-3 Lionesses. Similarly, khan with the help of Johars' can mess with the Female Bachchan(Jaya Bachchan in K3G,KHNH).
3.With the help of the vey-very-very large group, hyenas can "try" to mess with the Juvenile(Just grwon-up) Male-Lion...although the attempted result is almost a FAILURE. Similarly, khan with the help of Johars' can try to mess with the Juvenile Male-Bachchan(Abhishek Bachchan in KANK)...although khan got more screen-space and importance in the film than Abhishek but, the attempted result was the FAILURE for the khan, everybody knows that Jr.Bachchan stole the Show.
4.Final part, Even the largest group of hyenas can't mess with the BIG MALE-LION. Just with a single swipe and a swift bite leaves the hyenas lifeless and if any hyena dare to try to cross the path of the BIG MALE-LION, then, that hyena has to pay in blood. Similarly, even with the help chopras',johars' and others, khan could not mess with BIG MALE-BACHCHAN.(AMITABH BACHCHAN in Mohabbatien,K3G,Veer-Zaara,Paheli,KANK,DON).BigB is ultimate.

Hi, just coming out watching DON, what a waste? SRK should stop paying tributes, first to Dilip kumar (Devdas) & now to Big B (Don). we cannot digest it. only God knows what Farhan was upto. Sorry Folks it was a Awfull Film

Raj you r correct. SRK is like monkey Imitating legends like Dilip Kumar, Amithab and may be Rajesh Khanna in future.

I agree, its a total waste. And please don't say that he acted well in Devdas!!!!

Raj, you are right. He should stop busness of tribute. He can be liked by girlish boys and ofcourse girls. He can charm them, but for manly people, he is like maharani in sadak.
