[arr] MANGAL PANDEY IS OK.

[gomtesh]

Hey guys.   Saw the movie first day first show. The movie is good but not extraordinary.Aamir Khan is the only reason why one can watch the movie. He is brilliant through out. This movie was so hyped and aamir had not been seen for four years is quite surprising I must say. Coming to the music.ARR is just brilliant but one gets the feeling that none of the songs were required.Infact the most disappointing was takey takey.The picturisation was ridiculous and was nothing what we expected. Also it was hardly a couple of minutes.Al Madath Maula was also very short.Rasiya was awesome(Man ,she is hott!!).Main Vari Vari was kinda ok.Holi song was very boring and also was not required. Overall Ketan Mehta could not justify for these master pieces.   But hey some scenes in the movie were real gems. The last half an hour or so will truly move you. Toby Stephens is also brilliant in the movie. The most irritating part in the movie was the elephant and the folks on it singing the mangal mangal song. (It’s like wherever you go the elephant follows!).And at the end rani mukherjee goes to fight which was very silly.   Nevertheless a great effort by the team. Go watch it once, but don’t expect too much. I thought the movie lacked the quality that was in lagan or swades.But again Aamir Khan is the entertainer. Just awesome. Also there wasn’t much of background score except for a few samples here and there, good ones and the closing credit music was great.Overall a decent movie which should be watched.
