Awesome Retro+B movie from RGV
5 November 2007
RGV's Aag is one of the advanced movies for it's released time coz it's made in a retro + B movies style. RGV deliberately gave that style to the movie. Unfortunately, the Indians are not ready for retro + B genre. He made this in that style because already lot of movies have been branded as remakes of sholey such as china gate(though it's a remake of seven samurai which again was an inspiration for sholey), mela....

What do you think RGV who gave us films like Stays, COmpany, and Bhooth is such an idiot to make a B movie without his knowing? The answer is he made it deliberately with style i.e., RGV's stamp.

Even the global audiences are not ready for this kinda movies coz the recent grindhouse was a flop though it could be enjoyed.

So, what i want to say is that do not say sholey cannot be remade as the fact remains that it could be remade but it cannot be as big a hit as sholey was.

Here, I hats off to RGV for giving us a fine piece of film making. As for the performances, i thing, every actor is superb in his own respect. Yes, Amitabh has given stellar performance but Mohan lal has given no less than a powerhouse performance. In fact, Mohan has given Amit run for his money.

One more thing, Nish is so funny in the movie esp'lly with her Tapori accent and she has improved her acting skills. Come on guys, what do you expect from Aag, a classic. See the title which itself suggests its contents inside.

Aur haan, this is not a biased review, just in case you think so. Honestly, I am a hardcore fan of RGV's, but still this is a genuine and careful review. ANd, I am not angry on anyone while writing is up.

Keep making movies, RGV!
