Saw Saawariya....its gorgeous. For people who love to read, who get lost in make believe worlds like Hogsmeade and Diagon Alley in Harry Potter, or the fantasy world of the Hobbit, this movie is a must.You dont question its magic, you simply enjoy it. The climax leaves you filled with a deep sense of longing, and I think this is where the audience feels let down. They are supposed to. The injustice of Ranbir's loss is supposed to make you feel powerless. It is like losing the jackpot by one number. The unmoving, sullen Sakina who almost has you fooled when she shows glimpses of a childlike girlishness ultimately lets your hopeful besotted hero down. You just get a glimpse of Iman(Salman) to be happy for her.(It is Salman after all!!), but not so much that it takes away from Ranbir's heartbreak. The two new stars are fabulous. Their inexperience only adds to their fresh appeal and makes them more endearing to the viewer. Ranbir has that star quality, he can achieve anything from this point on. Sonam is absolutely unique. In a world where all the girls look like they are manufactured from a plastic assembly line with the streaked hair, the blindly-aping-western-fashion look, this girl is such a stunner. I am now looking forward to seeing OSO. Us desis in the USofA are too happy to get a double bonanza to care about taking sides. why choose when you can have it all??
