FLOP MOVIE
by lax yopr on Jan 08, 2010 03:25 AM  | Hide replies

SRK needs to move outside his comfort zone of Karan Johar and experiment with new directors & new topics.
Ppl are tired of senseless romantic & emotional movies, so typical of Karan Johar.

I completely agree with you. SRK needs to give up the thought of comparing himself with other great Indian actors. Hes not made for greatness.

Please dont even goto Chak De India! Its one of the most idiotic films I have ever seen. Tell me one scene where Shahrukh has convincingly inspired the ladies to play well. He didnt even have a strategy. All he did was made them rebel against him which somehow mysteriously makes them unite and ... win (Give me a break!!)

You know what the saddest part is, that whether you like SRK or not, EVERYONE knows he's made for greatness, he achieved it a long time ago. Now if you live in your own stupid bubble and like to believe your stupid and idiotic views then by all means do so. SRK is a wonderful actor. And if you think the main lead in movies like DDLJ, KKHH, KKKG, DTPH, Baazigar and Karan Arjun AND Chak De is not great - then you either are the most ignorant person in the world, or clearly no knowledgable in Indian Cinema. You don't like him, fine - your opinion but NO ONE can deny he's one of the greatest stars in the industry. Oh and your comment about Chak De. Well let's see, clearly most of India thought it was fantastic, as did the rest of the world. He won awards, it was a hit, it won awards. People in the industry thought it was amazing. Critics appreciated it. But you didn't like it. Hmm I wonder whose opinion is more valid. A nobody or most of Indian population in the world....

Get a life, take a break, you re-watch the movie and think about my views (as well as all the millions who loved it), who knows, maybe you'll learn something :)

My dear naive Sanjana, it appears that you are more influenced by what others think instead of relying on your intellect and opinion. It doesnt matter to me what the world thinks about it. I base my opinion on what I think and see; My argument is based on facts. Theres nothing in CDI which portrays the greatness of Shahrukh as a coach; A coach is supposed to inspire, create a strategy and outclass the opponents; somebody who inspires the team to outperform, excel individually and as a team; Watch a film like Million Dollar baby and you realize what Im talking about. Watching CDI made me laugh. As a nation and audience we have gotten used to the mediocre and we satisfy ourselves by praising it to the sky.

You say SRK is a great actor. Please define greatness. To me greatness is in inspiring your people, making a difference, setting a precedence, setting a good example. Actors can never be great; they can only strive to be good. Nothing that SRK has done so far is anywhere near greatness; Name one movie of his which has moved you like TZP, RDB, DCH, Sarfarosh, Lagaan. All of his hits so far have been feel good romantic tear jerkers which are immensely loved by the female audience.

Talking of awards; our awards are based on commercial success; they dont even consider the cinematic excellence or artistic value of a film; Check any of the films which have received awards, you will find that most of them have been Commercial hits, not good cinema. to be cont..

I'm not saying that I've achieved something extra - ordinary for my country but the least I try and do is stick up for it and convey it's greatness, because every country has faults but it's your strenght that matters and as far as I'm concerned as long as people like you exist our country will always be brought down. And that's the saddest part about our country - not it's mediocracy.

And what exactly is great about India ?? The Indian govt can NOT even defend its citizens against terrorists. What has India done all these years while our tiny neighbor continues killing innocent citizens. All we do is run to our big brother the US crying and say "Please we have been hit again. Help!!". Wake up and face the truth, we have trillions of miles to go before we even knock on the door of greatness.

First part of msg (just in case)

Tiger, you can provide any stupid opinion of the world as you want, judge how you want, but don't even think about judging whether I'm foolish or naive. Judge my opinions and thoughts and nothing else - I don't stand for that nonsense.

Secondly, Tiger there is again the difference in great. Some actors like Johnny Lever and Rajpal Yadav excel in comedy but can you imagine them in a serious role? No. Does that mean they're any less great? No. Actors each do different types of cinema. Of course I acknowledge, actors like Aamir are fantasticly versatile and it works all ways but SRK has mainly done mainstream and no once can deny he's fantastic in that category (hence box- office results and fan base) which is truly the only unbiased way of judging because your opinion is also a bias. The more data averaged, the more accurate the result (another elementary school lesson). And great is just your opinion, god shall I insert a defintion for you as you are clearly unable to understand the meaning of the word. I don't insult Aamir at all but I am not "foolish" to not acknowledge SRK. All your comments are just judgments and they are all biases especially in this case. Honestly do you really think you are so much smarter than everyone around you? Is that really what you think b/c then I'm wasting my time with someone who will never understand because they're unable to - no matter how hard they try

Thirdly, were you there when CDI was shot?

I judged you based on your opinion and thoughts UNLIKE you whos judging my success in life without any knowledge about me. You say Im nothing. Whats nothing anyway ?? :-)) do you mean I have no wealth, education, family, friends :-)) ?? Do you know what I do for a living, where I come from?? You are ridiculous.

So how can you say he went along without discussing at whatnot? Kind of a stupid judgment or is that something you were able to read between the lines with some super power (i'm guessing stupidity:)) Please do share.

See, Tiger there is something wrong with the way you think, you have a sense of superiority, do you honestly and truly believe your smarter and more correct than the billions of people around you? You think that as a mere citizen you can concretely w/o any evidence say that India is mediocre. Well if you're so smart and you know exactly whats wrong - why don't you fix it? I mean why sit out here on your butt instead being out there? Or did RDB just not "move" you enough? You know what I think? Correct me if I'm wrong as it's an opinion - you're one of those overly confident Indians who believe they are the smartest in the world when they have achieved NOTHING. You're calling SRK not great, but what position are you in to judge him? Are you a great scientist? Or are you a great journalist? Author? Teacher? Anything? Why not show us just how you can use your brain? Give me a break. It's easy to say everything around us is mediocre but we brought it there, and by blaming the rest of India, YOUR thoughts express to me your just being too cowardly and lazy to do something- you're even lower than the mediocre people. You acknowledge something's wrong and sit here and do nothing. How does it feel to be judged?

I never profess to be superior, Im merely stating my opinion, which is factual. You dont see mediocrity in India. where do you see Excellence. In our education system ? In our health care? Our governance? Our Police ? our Infrastructure ? or in the standard of living of a vast majority of Indians ? In our respect for the environment ? Where do you see the excellence ?? Do you even know about the human right violations we have every day, every second ? And dont tell me what I SHOULD be doing. Why should I fix the problems in India. I dont even live there. If you want to improve it and change it, please go ahead, BUT be honest and acknowledge the current state first. Theres no shame in mediocrity IF you are striving to make it better. We are a developing country and theres no shame in poverty or being behind other countries, but feeling inferior about it is shameful.

I have written enough about SRK. I dont want to write anymore about him. He doesnt deserve so much of my time.

I understand as a country we have problems, its clear but give me a break we all are the reason for it. Don't just sit and insult your country - leave that for the rest of the world! At least each of the actors try and bring India to an International level of importance even if it's through film. But you sit here and just pass your judgements. From where I see it SRK is a much better person tha you.

Look, I'm not saying your opinion is wrong if you don't like SRK - everyone is entitled to their opinion adn I respect that you don't like SRK but why would you as an Indian, disrespect and undermine your own country. Acknowledge the problems, don't insult them. SRK is a great actor because in the most "unbiased" terms, great can only be obtained by box-office results as they are not tainted personally by opinion of one person but by the general population of the world. You can insult SRK all you want, but the saddest fact is 100 years from now, he'll still be loved and cherished while you will be forgotten amongst a sea of millions - still meaningless on a national level.

As for your opinion on my grad, you know I've gone to a top IB world school (which I have), and perhaps this education alone can surpass what you've done. And I also know you'll think "ya right" but I'm not insecure enough to care so much about your opinion on me - see even to me your opinion is worthless. I'm proud of what I've achieved cont.

You know what Im not surprised at your anger. We have gotten so used to the ordinary that when its pointed out (which is merely what I did) we get offended and take it as an insult. It doesnt have to be taken that way. India has had so many different problems and no effort has ever been taken to resolve those problems. Problems with our explosive population growth, lack of proper infrastructure, illiteracy, poverty; poor education system, etc., they are too many to mention; I dont mean that in the derogatory sense. We have many problems and our useless politicians havent helped in any way. We need to acknowledge these problems. India HAS the potential to be the best, but in its current state, is no way near it.

And do you truly believe our actors and our film industry really care about our country. If you think they make films to portray our country in good light, i pray that God gives you wisdom.

I have one parting advice for you. Dont ever take pride in anything, least of all your education. You were fortunate to have good parents/family (or whoever paid for your school/college etc.,) so you got through. You could so easily have been one of the millions of Indians who have no food or clothing or shelter. Let alone studying in a good GRAD school. You should have gratitude for whatever you in life, not arrogance or pride.

If you still dont agree with me, I suggest we catch up again in about 10 years and see where we stand :-)) What say ? Deal

Tiger, thank you for assessing my thoughts and what they're based on w/o even knowing a single thing about me. You're completely wrong, but that's no shock to me

Firstly, just to clear your pathetic misunderstanding, you're opinion is NOT based on facts because what you think a coach is supposed to do or say is an OPINION (which, if you went to grade school, is NEVER a fact) I suggest elementary school :).

Secondly, you might have not thought SRK was a good coach in the movie, but you do know that every actor follows a script, and yet again you're only thinking within your narrow mind frame, there so many different types of coaches in the world, and there is no set rule on how they should act, what they say, or whatnot - it depends on the TEAM, and I have seen Million Dollar Baby as have you I'm sure, so you're bound to know there is a big difference in who was being coached and for what sport they were being coached.

Thirdly, I don't believe (and nor should you) that you are in the correct position to pass judjement on even your city, let alone a country and it's people worldwide. Let's face, your opinion is worth about a grain of sand when compared to the world, as is mine, however, I'm not under false impressions that I matter more or am smarter than world - which you are clearly not judging by your comments and the lack of thought behind them. No one has the right, to make any comments like you did. cont..

Sanjana, I thought you were naive. But sorry I was wrong. You are plain foolish. I dont need to know anything about you; Your thoughts convey awfully lot about you. Anyone who argues that SRK is a great actor has no idea what a quality actor is. I suggest you wait for a few years and hopefully by then you would have grown up (I hope. Intellectually atleast) and then think about my opinion.

I agree there are different types of coaches (one exists in a train, and they get pulled by the engine :-)) LOL; They neither have the power nor capability to do anything by themselves, they just get pulled by the engine; just like SRK in the movie; the director pulled him and he went along without any thought on where, how and WHY;

Anyways, I would like to hear what they taught you about coaches in your GRAD school (Where is it again? in your back yard ? In some forest, on a hill where you had monkeys for teachers) I would like to know; please enlighten me.

It doesnt matter what you think about me. I have the right to present my thoughts and arguments and whether you agree or not, Indians have gotten used to the mediocre; in fact they love it ;just look around us; our education system; our governance; look at the content on TV, films, everywhere and you will see what I mean (if you can be unbiased and think with your brain as opposed to your heart).
Finally, It isn't about being smart, Its about your judgement (which comes with knowledge) If you think Im smart, u r right;contd

This shows that you are just bluffing or u saw the movie with closed eyes as u couln't bear SRK acting well in front of your eyes...i know the likes of u....

one of the best strategies of the coach in the movie was to play as united india and not as players of individual states...what can be a better strategy since this regionalism ails indian sport so much...did u sleep through the parts of the film when he was making the players physically fit through tortorous practice sessions, asking them to pass the ball, being aggressive on the field, bring on his experienced player at just the right time in the tournament...and his super inspiring advice in the end that you have just 70 minutes with u which een g0 can't snatch away from you...do u know hw tournaments like 1983 world cup final were won? through inspiring advice from captains like kapil dev who just said that "we need to go and win the game for the country like our soldiers"...many times its pure passion that wins the game rather than talking strategies at the last moment...

CDI inspired the sporting generation of India...it was released in Aug and India won the 20-20 wc in september...thats called inspiring...SRK's personality in his films is inspiring.

Compare that to ch0r aamir who talks abt narmada andolan before release of RDB and conveniently forgets abt it after the movie...criticizes modi for tortring m*slims just before Fanaa's release and then forgets abt the ri0ts, cuts people's hair before gajini, steals script of TZP from shakuntla devi and then di*ses her in public when she points that out...u think aamir is inspiring? u must be one of the gutter persons of the world to be inspired by such terrible personality like Aamir.

LOL :-) Your emotions are getting the better of you. You are getting drowned in them and not examining things unbiasedly. I have never said Im inspired by Aamir, I have merely pointed out that the films he has done have moved the audiences and conveyed a message. As far as lifting stories etc., is concerned, I dont care where it comes from. I dont want to go into the details about who created what and who stole it; thats very subjective and its not upto me and you to decide; All Im saying is Aamir had the conviction and intellect to choose the right subjects and put his passion behind those films; Im not saying Aamir is the best, but many of his films have been fantastic (remember JJWS); Go and watch it and it will move you beyond what a film like CDI can ever imagine. Dont accept crappy films from YRF and Karan Johar. Thats how you force the producers to make good films.

I agree 3 Idiots isnt the best of movies, but PLEASE neither is DDLJ. Its just a nicely made film. Sholay is and will be the best Indian movie ever made. Dont let your emotions rule you, SRK is an ordinary actor. His arrival coincided with immense growth in India. Most of his films have done well overseas as he does these soft, romantic films with little meaning which is lapped up by our foolish Indian audience abroad.

Possible. I dont want to analyze the numbers. I agree 3 Idiots isnt a great film as its turned out to be. I dont hate SRK, im just being unbiased. Any intelligent person will agree that SRK isnt a great actor. Hes a product of excellent marketing (aka Yash Chopra)& good timing (coinciding with the progress of India's middle class which gave them immense affordability and large number of Indians abroad who lapped up his feel good films). Dont get me wrong, some of his films like DDLJ, KKHH, Darr have been good, but to say hes a great actor is a fallacy. That should be reserved for people like Aamir Khan who had the courage to choose different subjects and make them with passion and conviction and turning them into big hits like TZP, Sarfarosh, Lagaan, DCH, etc.,

Why they didn't lap other films based on a similar theme?

3. Dont get me wrong, some of his films like DDLJ, KKHH, Darr have been good, but to say hes a great actor is a fallacy

For me great actor is neither Aamir, SRK or Amitabh...great actors are Naseer, Om Puri, Balraj Sahni, Mohanlal...do u agree? But of course they can't do what SRK or Aamir or AB can do, right?

YRF always have more budget for SRK movies... so, they spend more on Big Sets, Costly Songs & Foreign locales... which is like by Indian & NRI's... To recover this costs they also spent more on marketing these movies.. (for eg. I M in New Jersey.. & i didn't see any posters of their incoming movie 'Pyaar Imposible', while there were posters everywhere for 'Rab Ne..' & 'Chak de..' much b4 month of their release here..)

Also, they release these Big Budget films in Diwali / Holiday season.. so, it obviously gonna seen by most people.

& for great actors... Right now, only few considers good if not great r like naseer, anupam , om puri , paresh rawal , irfan khan, etc..

SRK, Aamir, BigB, Hrithik, Akshay, etc. r not great actors , but u can called them Great Entertainers...!!!

CDI was not released during festival time (and it did not have great sets..it didn't even have a her0ine) neither was RNBDJ which was released in fact 2 weeks after mumbai ter0rist attacks when people were scared of going to the theatres....in fact its aamir who plays with people...his last 3 films have been released during christmas new year holidays...

Re to Point 1) Success has many fathers. SRK's success too can be attributed to all the factors i mentioned. Its not necessary that every film has to be successful. A producer needs a good director/actor/crew etc., So it doesnt mean any movie made by YRF will be successful.

2) Same like above. You cant achieve success by copying others. Audiences are not fools.

3) I agree these are great actors, but they are in a different league altogether. No body can compare any of the actors with these. They are all natural actors. They are like Art, Aamir is more science, he studies the role, story etc., and then adapts himself to fit the bill.

what if i say SRK is like the old breed of Rajesh Khanna, Dev Anand, Dilip etc...they never used to get into the character but audiences loved their style of acting...same with SRK.

Any person with an iota of intellect or common sense will agree that Shahrukh and acting are like water and fire, they can never be together. Shahrukh is just a pretty face who got very very lucky. He doenst have any talent or acting ability. Take away all the big banners and the international clothing brands from him and then check his popularity.

Hardwork!! do you know its meaning ? Has he ever worked hard for any of his movies. He has only one expression and wears nice clothes. Thats his hardwork for the movies!! :-)) Look at Aamir Khan, he gets into the skin of the character like that of the teacher in TZP. If you look at Aamir you truly believe that HE's the character that hes playing. Look at Lagaan, does anyone for a moment believe that he isnt the rustic villager. I challenge any person with any intellect to disagree that Aamir works really hard for his films and roles. SRK just puts on the makeup, Armani clothes and turns up for shooting. He tried to do something different with Swades and look what happened too him. Dont let your emotions rule you.

dude i know whats hardwork thats why i achieved whatever i have in my life so far...SRK comes from outside the film industry...do u know how difficult it is for an actor to come from outside and settle down as the No.1 star...tell me in SRK's generation any other actor who has come from outside and become a top star...name at least one...

You are equating DDLJ to an ordinary love story where pretty faces just sing nice songs...its not...coz it had a not so beautiful SRK with a flat figure and dark belle like Kajol...and it had a good story and superb performances...there have been many love stories made with pretty faces but lot of them became fl0ps...admit it u have something against SRK that is just colouring your judgement against him.

Who developed six pack body for Om shanthi Om? Your Cha Cha? No .. It was Sharukh Khan..
Stop compairing actors and stop saying "he is best, he is worst".. They make movies for entertainment and watch it for entertainment. If you dont like any actor, stop watching his movie. Dont be a psycho to watch a person you dont like and start talking bad things about him.
