TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film
Grimerlana Plenty to Like, Plenty to Dislike
MamaGravity good back-story, and good acting
Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
geentapangan The idea is somewhat copied from memento. i like amir khan movies but somehow disappointed to see that they have the same plot as memento movie
andosonniamath Short-term memory loss is a disease in the human brain that an individual can only remember incidents and/or trauma due to the attack or things that are related of the cause. And what better explaining of short-term memory loss being displayed in Ghajini by A.R. Murugadoss. This movie deserves much more awards than Jodhaa Akbar in my opinion because history can repeat itself but not a mental disease. Ghajini is a psychological action thriller with Aamir Khan in the lead along with Jiah Khan and the debut of Asin. Pradeep Rawat is the villain while Tinnu Anand and Riyaz Khan provide supporting roles.Audience and critics may think it's a clichéd revenge film, when the hero defeats the villain and wins the battle. But this goes WAAAAY beyond that. The idea of using a psychological disease is a terrific idea to display in the movie. After all, what better way of understanding psychological disorders than films like this. The movie starts off in a medical centre with Sunita (Jiah Khan) a medical student who wants to study the case of Sanjay Singhania (Aamir Khan) the chairman of Air-Voice, a mobile phone company who later suffers short-term memory loss after a brutal attack by Ghajini (Pradeep Rawat) when he attempted to save his beloved Kalpana (Asin). Sanjay relies on his Polaroid pictures, his tattoos all over his body and notes he puts on the walls to regain his memory. The films then takes into flashbacks on Sanjay meeting Kalpana, falling in love with her, and the arrival of Ghajini who murdered Kalpana after she protested Ghajini for the rights of children. Fast-forward 2 years later and Sanjay has to use his memory techniques to find Ghajini. This movie really brings viewers not only to be entertained but to study many psychological disease a human can suffer. When do we ever have movies that actually can TEACH viewers a lesson or two? We basically have to rely on professors and teachers to learn a lesson when we can make professors take a break and use movies to teach us like Ghajini. The story itself is a tremendous idea and for that i thank Murugadoss for planning this beautiful idea and Piyush Mishra for coming up with excellent dialogue. Performances are top-notch and well delivered by the cast of the film. Though i feel that Tinnu Anand and Riyaz Khan are wasted in the film and have nothing to do. Asin makes her debut impressive and her acting skills are great!! Even though this is her debut film, i feel Ghajini was Asin's best film because she had a lot to do in the film and unlike her other films like Ready, Bol Bachchan and Housefull 2, she had more to deliver in Ghajini than her other films. Jiah Khan was literally the spoilsport of the film. The part when she told Ghajini about Sanjay and his intentions, it seriously got me thinking "omg are you serious right now?" But not gonna lie, she did a fantastic job at it and really made the audience feel shocked, after all it is a thriller film. And last and certainly not least, the man, the heart, the soul and basically everything of the film has to be owed to Aamir Khan. Man what a performance Khan delivered. At first, i thought he was a psychopath killer, but dude the way he changed my opinion. He made himself a living legend by delivering great performances like this. Ghajini is one example of his best-performances and acting skills. I can feel the emotions from him are similar to mine when i get mad at something or someone who i really loved. Aamir Khan, you done it again and hope to see you more on screen. The soundtrack by A.R.Rahman is one fine example of masterpieces Rahman can check on his list. My favourite song is "Behka" with it's funky hip-hop and rock flavours elemented in the song. "Guzarrish" is another song i like and listen to a lot. Hell, all the songs in the soundtrack are just plain awesome and catchy!! I always like Rahman's music in general because he has splendid ideas to make soundtracks literally the best. I recommend you watch this film because of Murugadoss's direction skills, A.R.Rahman's music, Asin's impressive debut, and basically Aamir Khan in the film. You won't regret after watching it.
abhijeet-kaushal this movie is the worst movie of Amir khan carrier.I am dam sure it is the worst remake of Hollywood movie. Bollywood don't even know how to copy and make a good remake in Bollywood. i was watching this movie but after 1 hour i started felling sleepy but i did not sleep.i don't know why people make movies like these. there is no reality in this movie . actress asim is looking awesome but don't except anything more than that from these movie.there are many scene which are impossible to digest.god save us from these movies.
buddhadeb_09 This was a awful at best effort to adopt the theme from the outstanding movie "Memento" into Indian cinema, and it failed terribly. Where do I even start? The filmmaker completely failed to grasp the concept of the reverse chronological order and short interconnected sequences from the movie Memento, all he managed to get was the tattoos that he placed in Amir's fabulous body (the only positive thing about the movie). He just stole the idea of this short term memory loss and made it into a cheap and dumbed down "bazari" movie. Thus, when Memento challenged viewers to think critically throughout the movie, Ghajini completely fails even to give the viewers a sense of the confusion of the hero suffering short term memory loss. Not to mention, it had millions of songs in it, clearly hindering the flow of the movie, if there was any. I wonder how a filmmaker can be so disrespectful of a fellow filmmaker that he can still his million dollar theme and turn it into a horrible nightmare! I wish filmmakers could be prosecuted for stealing the concept of an amazing movie to make a crap out of it!
