Sanchari Bhattacharya you have done good to write positive about RA.one, infact better than the film's writers itself. "We never ask how Spiderman can climb buildings effortlessly or why Superman wears his underwear over his tights" you need to time off from fantasizing SRK and research on these characters to know the answers. "Shah Rukh Khan has never pretended to be an actor" because he is not one!!! but atleast be a sensible producer. He chooses Karan Johar and Yash Raj films as it has lot to "hide" his acting skills. No one expects sky high from SRK (Not even his directors) except his fans who will surely get angry on my comments. He should have played the title role and experimented atleast that would have created curiosity among his haters also.
Dabang and Ghajini were engrossing (I am a fan of neither Salman nor Amir) while Ra one is boring. All the technical effects fall flat because the movie never connects.

If the viewership falls sharply after a dizzy first two days (after all there was a lot of hype and marketing) then it will confirm that the movie basically falls flat on its face.
Sanchari Bhattacharya to shut up now. 170 crores in 5days .. look at the figures hahaha...Sanchari Bhattacharya take a chill pill and stop writing stupid reviews.
