A Brave Attempt!!

Warning: Spoilers
First of all let me make it clear that you really need an open mind to enjoy this movie.Some of my friends who are hard core God believers thought that this movie was bit insulting.I strongly disagree. Director Umesh Shukla truly pulls off the movie of the year. Seeing the trailers of this movie I was sure this would create a lot of controversy but seeing that it didn't I guess people too accepted the logic behind the plot.The movie is really fast paced and some of the monologues by Paresh Rawal are worth watching millions of times. Akshay Kumar plays his role as "God" really well but sometimes takes the good guy character so far that it makes one think would this movie have been better with his part on screen reduced a bit.Even though this movie is a brave attempt considering how sensitive people in India are in subjects related to God still its plot is diluted a bit when it is shown that Kanji realizes that there "is" a God .Overall the ending is as good as it could get and leaves one wondering about the situation around.The movie underlines the fact that a good actor can singlehandedly take a movie to great heights. Hats off Mr. Rawal !!
