Om Shanti Om (OSO)

I have not been to any movie for the last 3 months which is unusual of me cos i go for a movie atleast once a month. but this time i was busy for 3 months with end of sem rush, projects and exams. Finally on saturday i went for the SRK starer Om Shanti Om.
Om Shanti Om brings to mind the song in which Rishi Kapoor is dancing on a spinning disk in the movie Karz. Well OSO is almost a remake of that movie with some more details. the release saw the clash of the titans with Sanjay Leela Bansali's Saawariay and OSO clashing at the box office . But the SRK starer prevailed and broke most of the records in the first week itself.

I went for the film as there was no other good film playing at that time( and i had no other choice too :-) ). The film starts with the song i mentioned above. Its the story of Om Prakash Makhija(funny name) who is a junior artist who falls in love with a big actress Shantipriya. But she loves someone else who kills her . the only witness is Om who dies on the same day after hurting himself in the process of rescuing Shanti. 30 years later Om is Om Kapoor who is a leading actor in the film industry and he somehow finds out what happened to him in the earlier birth and in the process tries to bring the murderer of Shanti to justice.

The movie is good to watch with very funny comic scenes. A scene which some to mind instantly is SRK playing the role of a south india actor. " ENNA RASCALA. MIND ITTT" :-). The ending is unpredictable but the story overall does not have a feel to it. The songs are good(but Shahrukh trying to be Hrithik was absoloute rubbish).
Overall i'll give it 6/10. Deepika in her first film is excellent. Arjun Rampal and Shreyas too gave good performances. Well you can guess that 'm not a ShahRukh fan ;-)

Watch the clip below. ENNA RASCALA! MIND ITT!!!
