The Imtiaz Ali Direction, Return of True A.R. Rehman musical saga, impressive and diverse looks of Ranbir Kapoor, these much temptations are enough for anybody to go and watch the movie Rockstar. The starting 45 minutes creates a very good and promising impression to look forward to, but as the movie progresses, the looks of Ranbir Kapoor changes but the storyline becomes stale and slow. The expectation with which viewer waits for some interesting turning event to occur in story never comes. The story entangles within itself in the confused state of mind of the hero, JORDAN. The Ranbir was as usual ok with his performance. The new comer Nargis had given her best but it is remotely satisfactory. The story going to Prague (CZech) has nothing to do except for capturing the scenic beauty in the songs. The title Rockstar suggests the struggle of the actor but story portraits his personal struggle for love. The struggle of upcoming talent is just compacted in a song Kun Faya Kun. The movie editing is really bad, you can easily sense it while watching.
Lets come to Imtiaz's direction. The dialogues in the movie reminds you of the Jab We Met dialogues. Imtiaz tries to create the same charisma of JWM but repeating the theme 'Dialogues said by heroine in the first half being repeated by Hero in the second half' (just like uska photo jala de theme of JWM) but it creates less impact. The storyline becomes too predictable in the second interval. The Biggest advantage of this movie is the melodious and rocking A.R.Rehman music. All the songs are fantastic. I guess only Rehman has the power to deliver a complete package with all types of songs. This time his magic is supported by Mohit Chauhan who justifies each and every song. Truelly speaking, music will have the biggest part if Rockstar succeeds on Box Office. The another thing for which I went to see the movie is the fact that it is the last movie in which we could the Legendry Shammi Kapoor Ji. Anyways, more or less the Romantic Prodigy which Imtiaz tries to portray fails on many fronts.
I won't say don't watch the movie but rather don't watch it with too much expectations.
