Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

santhosh-10290 SRK,what an acting.. Gaurav and Aryan Khanna characters are superb.. it's an awesome film.. Fan superb movie... SRK rocked in the film... bgm was good and the theme music was good...

snivendkar11 Another great movie which fell to poor direction. Completely flawed with loopholes. Even if the movie is not based on a real story it still had a capability to attract a lot more attention than it already did. SRK did a good job, however there wasn't much he could help with the plots. Indian cinema needs to take an example of how a great story can lose to a bad script and loopholes. Had they used the help of a crew that adds more content to support the direction and explain to the audience with some concrete evidence as to why a plot is progressing in the way it is. Fan is a good example of how a movie can either be 1 or 10. Bollywood needs to understand that Indian Cinema is evolved and is smarter and you cannot present such a low standard story line. Great idea behind the movie but absolutely poor execution.

ApeLieUproar This review doesn't really contain any spoilers but I think everyone should watch this movie as I did, with absolutely no prior knowledge of it. So consider that a spoiler warning, of sorts.Anyway, some friends brought the DVD of this movie over one day. Prior to this, I'd never even heard of it. I knew the lead actor's face but forgot his name, Shah Rukh Khan, if I ever knew it. Seeing the cover with the two faces, I assumed it starred two actors that just happened to closely resemble each other, and not being able to read the extremely small print on the DVD I was not disabused of this notion. I even thought, "Isn't it interesting that these two actors look so similar."Watching the film further enforced the idea that I was watching two different actors. Gaurav looked somewhat like his idol, fictional movie star Aryan Khanna but not identical. For one thing, Gaurav had less of a curve to his nose than Aryan. Gaurav also looked younger and there is one scene where Gaurav take his shirt off, showing a less impressive physique than the one I've seen in pictures of the Khan; Gaurav also seemed to be shorter than Khanna. Also, of course, the two characters appear in scenes together.When I later checked IMDb later to see who this actor and saw that the two parts were played by Khan, I was dumbfounded. I could hardly believe it. I'm still having trouble believing it.This is even before taking into account the seamless way the two characters are integrated into scenes. While that is obviously amazing and reinforced the idea that I was watching two actors, Khan's performance as Gaurav is what impresses me the most. Khan basically plays himself as Aryan Khanna but he utterly disappears into Gaurav, albeit with some help from the impressive makeup, prosthetics and/or digital wizardry to make him appear 20-30 years younger; but the performance is still impressive, any way you look at it. I thought making Robert Downey Jr. look young in Captain America 3 was impressive, but it's simply nothing compared to this.As for the story, it starts off a bit slow, but picks up the pace soon enough. It features a couple of chase scenes that may drag on a bit too long, but they're certainly not a deal-breaker.

Obaid Dauzai Khan Fan is an out-and-out Shah Rukh Khan show, One of the best and fine performance by world's best actor, His energetic performance steals the show,SRK proves as an actor again,The thrill of the movie is watching Shah Rukh Khan trying to one up himself.It is Shah Rukh versus Shah Rukh.the movie is outstanding in all ways.the role of Gaurav as played by Shah Rukh Khan is Awesome.relieved Darr-Baazigar-Anjaam days.Every one from Bollywood praised srk for the role he has don.no doubt why he is baadshah of Bollywood.his acting is superb. With his years of practice, SRK aces this role with ease. We see film stars making appearances at wedding parties or ready to do anything as long as they are getting paid. Aryan Khanna is no exception. He is humiliated in the process, but also understands the value of his stardom. Self-deprecating humour and honesty is what makes Aryan Khanna a character to watch out for
