GOD HELP YOU !!
It's been a mad mad week!ÌýÌýÌýWhen isn't it in Bollytastic world??ÌýÌý
Ìý
On Monday, we hooked upÌýforÌýa quick chat with RaniÌýMukerji, she was rushing inÌýbetween flights from Toronto and Mumbai after her gala showing of DIL BOLE HADDIPAÌýat the Toronto Film Festival.ÌýÌýShe lookedÌýas elegant as ever,Ìýbut a tad nervous at the pending release, whichÌýhas been described as her comeback by some.Ìý
Ìý
DBH is up against Rani's former co-star andÌýfilmiÌýfriend Salman Khan'sÌý"WANTED" and you've responsed to our dilemma on FacebookÌýbased on what to see first.ÌýÌý
ItÌýwas very heated;Ìýdie hard Rani fans vs. SalluÌýBhai'sÌýarmy.ÌýÌý
In the end our cinematic viewing choices were made by theÌýshowtimes. We caught DBHÌýfirst at Shaftesbury and then hotfooted to Marble Arch to watch WANTED.
Ìý
Our verdict:ÌýDBHÌýis what you'd expect from aÌýYash Raj Film;Ìýa jalebi version of Punjabi tackling women's rights, cross dressing and romance - all the ingredients that could have made a mind blowing entertainer,Ìý with just one pinch missing - theÌý'ÌýITÌý' factor.ÌýÌý
Rani is fantastic, sheÌýlooks great!!Ìý Shahid,Ìýdespite his thin ankles, is growing more sure of himselfÌýand performed well.Ìý Rakhi is wasted and Poonam Dhillon is totally underused.ÌýOur Message -ÌýÌýwatch it for Rani!

WANTEDÌýon the other hand is gory, gustoÌýand an all out no-holds-barred entertainer.ÌýÌý
Salman is great andÌýhisÌýchemistryÌýwith Ayesha Takia Azmi is sizzling.ÌýÌý
Prabudeva's direction is spot on and the action sequences are thrilling. It's a fantastic masala movie.ÌýÌý
The movie usesÌýall the good old fashioned ingredients from the 80's;ÌýÌýÌýthe flawed handsome hero, the damsel in distress, hordes of baddies, a vamp, great music andÌýthat age old battle between good and evil!

During our marathon movie evening,ÌýFarah Khan text us from Mumbai, afterÌýwe'dÌýcongratulated her on the success ofÌýher hugeÌýTV success with "Tere Mere Beech",ÌýweÌýreplied to say we were watching both of herÌýfilms back to back,ÌýÌýher response wasÌýthree words; "GOD HELP YOU!"
