vishal is a clever guy, thats it.
by rp_rediff on Aug 08, 2006 12:39 PM

human emotions? drama? social issues/struggles? if you want to show all this, there are so many examples out there. you do not have to show it thru some goon\'s violance!!!?
first and formost:- violance sells, raunchy stuff sells, and vishal wanted to make something which he can sell. he has only made a violent movie, like so many other movies. by attaching it with a literary milestone he was successful in making fool of people.

for a moment, take out the shakespear part. and you are left with one of those so many violent movies set in hindi-bombiya backdrop. without shakespear\'s name Vishal might have lost his shirt on the project.

the fact is, very cleverly Vishal has used shakespear\'s name/work as a mask to sell his own run-of-the mill product.

-this is not a comment of the quality of the movie, just telling a fact that: Vishal is a clever businessman before you can call him an artiste.

thank you.
