If you want to watch a movie that wanders around aimlessly on a thread line premise, go watch it. Dunno why SRK chose Priyadarshan to direct this weird mess, cause like I expected, there was no vision in it. What could have been told in a 30 minute mini-flick drags on endlessly for 2 hours plus, complete with the typical buffoonish and screaming villager characters. (Curses to Om Puri and Rajpal Yadav for repeating the same characters they've done in countless past Priyadarshan flicks.) Nothing special about the performances either. Lara and Irrfan looked nothing like the impoverished characters they were to portray, and they couldn't possibly have less chemistry together. The over-the-top repeated King Khan references were super annoying too, almost as ridiculous as SRK's Shahenshah (the eighties AB flick) inspired wardrobe.
