Guess what? It could have also been worse. You may also call his performance hammy and overdone, but gosh how much I love those.ĭhoom could have been a better franchise. This may be a bad thing when you look at the movie as a whole but when it comes to blockbusters like these, it really isn’t a barometer. His acting prowess sticks out more, especially because he stands above the film. You may turn to better Aamir films to see why he is a star but for me he is a star because of films like these. We saw him open the 100 crore club with Ghajini and the 200 crore club with 3 Idiots (2009). Let me see what I can do.' What can he not do, I ask. I was not liking the film until Aamir Khan took over and said 'Okay look you may be a crappy film but you can’t do that when I’m around. I was reminded of my experience of watching Ghajini (2008). The twist isn’t so much of twist in the story (as you can see it a mile away) but a twist in an actor shifting a film’s gearssinglehandedly. Then comes the twist and the second half takes a complete 180 degree turn. Honestly, I was finding this more disappointing than the film being a bore. He spoke his lines like an actor he is not. Aamir Khan looked bored and unconvincing. One hour into the film and there is still nothing that could remotely be called a story. The magic act looks like everything we have seen before. What follows is a tale of love, betrayal, redemption and healing set against the very rooted town of Benaras and the upbeat political environment of Delhi.In the opening sequence, we see a circus. His heart breaks and the rage that Kundan feels is inexplicable.

However, it instead shatters when Zoya tells him her true feelings. With Zoya back in Benaras, Kundan's world was filled with excitement as he was thinking of finally telling her how he felt. He carries his feelings all through college and his heart flippes when Zoya came back to his town. Love, they say, is a feeling that only grows stronger with time and Kundan's love for Zoya never diminished.

Time passed by and Zoya moved to Delhi to study further. She doesn't take him seriously and brushes him off. She was like a breath of fresh air to him who he would follow every day to the bazaar and back to her house till one day, he mustered the courage to speak to her and tell her his true feelings - his 13 year old heart, smitten by her simplicity. Quiet and beautiful with mischievous eyes, Zoya was the girl of his dreams. Benaras holds a special place in Kundan's heart, because not only did he grow up as a typical, god fearing, shiv bhakt-Pandit but also because it was the city that gave him Zoya. First love in anyone's life holds a special place especially if the memory is filled with the vibrant musings of the city that you grew up in.
