I had a very high expectation of Sanjay Leela Bhansali (SLB) But to my surprise Saawariya was highly disappointing.
It was one movie I will remember because it has crashed all expectations. Its very easy to call this movie a FLOP. But only honoring the respect I carried for SLB after Hum Dil De Chuke.... & Black I will only comment moderately. SLB YOUR MOVIES GIVES A IMPRESSION THAT YOU ARE A EXTREMELY OBSESSED PERSON. For Hum Dil De Chuke.... & Black worked in your favor but Saawariya was bad.
You have used two new comers (Ranbir & Sonam) who well justified your faith in them. They did a fairly OK job. But what story you were trying to say. And above all see the manner in which you presented that weak story to the audience. Your movie is like a 5- STAR hotel with a poor service to offer. Externally your movie is very beautiful but without soul. Not for a second it touched the heart.
So much mellodrama that it was actually frustration to keep one self seated for the entire coarse of your movie. Your use of Salmaan was bad. The generation that goes in to watch the movies will never relate to your concept & presentation.
Sorry SLB, BUT SAAWARIYA WAS VISUALLY BEAUTIFUL BAD-MADE-MOVIE.
