Well, I do not really believe in these reviews. These people present their own views not the views expected in general. I will usually check multiple reviews and of course, will see the movie. Certainly not in the mad crowd, but cool and leisure. End of the I will see the movie, irrepsespective of the ratings given by many duds.
Cut the crap, cut the gyan-baazi, cut the will-it-won't-it work naatak. Shah Rukh Khan and Farah Khan's OM SHANTI OM is a true-blue masala entertainer. If MAIN HOON NA was a chauka, this one hits a sixer!
Wait, a word of advice to all netizens/readers across the globe. Don't, for God's sake don't, raise exclamations like kab?, kyun? kahan? as OM SHANTI OM begins to unravel. This is atypical Manmohan Desai film presented in a novel avtaar by Farah Khan. It's definitely not for pseudos or advocates of arthouse cinema.
Now let's clear some myths surrounding OM SHANTI OM. Is it the 2007 adaptation of Subhash Ghai's immensely likable reincarnation film KARZ? Does it have traces of KUDRAT? Or MADHUMATI? Or MILAN? Or KARAN ARJUN? Hold on, there's a dash of KARZ, a bit of KARAN ARJUN, a sprinkling of KUDRAT, but beyond that it's a film that makes you nostalgic about 1970s Bollywood.

To sum up, OM SHANTI OM is paisa vasool entertainment. We haven't seen SRK in a hardcore masala film since quite some time. He had drifted to other genres, which proved his range as an actor of repute and cemented his status further. With OM SHANTI OM, he gives back to the audience what he himself grew up on -- a thorough entertainer that will have the audience thirsting for more.
This Diwali, have a blast!
OM SHANTI OM tells the story of Om [Shah Rukh Khan] and Shanti [Deepika Padukone]. Om is a junior artist in the 70s. Shanti is the reigning superstar. He is her biggest fan. He is in love with her. Om dreams of being a superstar, but an incident changes his life forever.
Om dies in a mishap, but is reborn into the present day. He attempts to discover the mystery of his demise%u2026
The general feeling is, Farah Khan has remade Ghai's KARZ from Frame A to Z. False! There're similarities, but it's not a rehashed version of Ghai's film. For, OM SHANTI OM takes you by complete surprise at several points.
The first twist in the tale [Arjun - Deepika's heated confrontation, with SRK listening to this important conversation] comes as a bolt from the blue. The second jhatka comes slightly before the intermission, when Arjun takes Deepika to the set of his film 'Om Shanti Om' and the entire episode that follows, right till the intermission, is spellbinding. That's a brilliant stroke from the writing [screenplay: Mushtaq Shaikh and Farah Khan] as also the execution point

On the whole, OM SHANTI OM is Bollywood masala in its truest form and also, at its best. At the box-office, the film will set new records in days to come and has the power to emerge one of the biggest hits of SRK's career. Blockbuster hit!
srk is a gr8 politician... trying all he can to prove what he said " i'll do anything to destroy the competetion(saawariya)" right... no reviews of OSO yet, bt very bad reviews for "Saawariya", & he is getting ppl to write bad abt the film... wht a shame... i've seen "Saawariya" & its mesmerising... no one in this industry can give you that kind of visual treat & feel"... ranbir rocks... its indian cinema one level up... raja sen u suks... & by the way most of these critics r gays, "khaleed mehmood, Taran Adarsh, Raja Sen etc".. they wud favour the Man from their community, i.e. SRK

the reviewer had a chance to attend the premier show which was screened one or two days before ... hence this review ... OSO's review to come by today evening .. however "mumbai mirror" correspondent saw both movies a day before and has rated SAAwariya as two star and OSO as three star (today's edition) .. Say thanks to me for providing you such a piece of insight ! Please do not feel bad if people don't like Saawariya ! You should feel satisfied if you feel it is good ! How does other's opinion matter to you !

OSO is a very bad movie. Now i understand why there is no review for OSO. Its too bad to write any review. It should not get any star.
