thats what most of us need in our hectic life...thoda pyaar and thoda magic :)i had decided i am gonna see this movie when i saw the trailer the first time....i was not going to let any critics' any review change my thoughts....so inspite of mayank shekhar's bad comments i went for the movie as mithu was home and mom was up for it too......
the movie begins with story of little boy ranbir (who grows up to be saif) who tragically loses everyone he loves and cares about......first his best friend....then his mother...he is sent to hostel....where he is loner as he is very reserved and doesnt make friends easily...other boys misunderstand him and make fun of him,mock at him ,rebuke him.....this makes him more antagonistic towards them....then steps in a teacher who acts as his guide, helps him study.....but soon the teacher retires.......and the boy is alone again....but now he has his books with him....he becomes the best student but a loner......comes first in every exam and grows up to be a very successful entrepreneur........but even now he is a loner...never lets anyone come near his heart...he has learnt to live without love...
one day when he is driving he meets with an accident and the people in the other car are killed....as a punishment the judge rules that the 4 children of the couple will live with him..that he has to look after the well being of the children till the youngest turns 18....he cant put the kids in boarding school.....and he cant leave the city without them.....and if does not abide by this he wud be put behind the bars for 20 yrs....
now ranbir has no choice but to get these children in the house......he tries to be nice to them but they hate him as they see him as their parents' murderer and want to take revenge on him ie send him to prison......so their sole aim is to see that they play pranks on him and make him so angry that ranbir is forced to ill treat them and then he will have to go behind bars...
ranbir tries to keep his cool initially but as the children are not willing to take even one step forward to accept his friendship he soon gets fed up with them...and they all r sad....
and the kids pray to god (rishi kapoor) to take them out of this miserable situation...
as a result god sends his chirpy, bubbly ,happy go lucky angel geeta (rani mukherji) to resolve dispute within them and make them into one family...
geeta understands the difficult position ranbir is in as he feels guilty for orphaning the children and he understands what they r goin thru as he himself was an orphan....and he feels bad all the time for being the cause of it...she also understands the pain of all four kids ranging from 5 to 9 yrs of age and their various emotions....but she does manahe to convince them that ranbir too is not totally at fault and to forgive him and that he has their best interests at heart
so geeta with her thoda pyaar and thoda magic manages to unite all of them.....
good points :
saif and rani both have acted their parts well......
the kids :vashisht -akshat chopra
iqbal -rachit sidana
aditi - shriya sharma
avantika - ayushi berman too have acted well.......ayushi is jus too cute in the movie
the way geeta makes opportunties for ranbir to win over the children is nice...
the computerized magic effects r nice...
the songs r ok.....we expect better when music is by shankar ehsaan loy and lyrics is by prasoon joshi......only nihaal ho gayi is really nice song.....
comedy is nice......
one thing which i really liked in the movie..one dialogue that ranbirs tells aditi...winning is important true but more important are the people clapping for ur success...and if u look down from dias and see no one clapping for u ,u r not successful...so wen at times u dont win be sure to clap for ur friend who has won...like that u ll be a part of his victory and celebrations
bad points :
direction by kunal kohli is ok (dont know if i am biased...coz i have not really liked any of his previous movies very much)
the fact that even though geeta is performing magic left right and center no body questions her or asks for an explanation cant be digested
ameesha patel role as ranbir's girlfriend malaika could have been better defined......she should have been a bit more mature role as its difficult to imagine a guy like ranbir liking a girl like (no brains type) malaika...
costumes by manish malhotra r bad.....esp of ameesha patel...did u run out of idea or didnt mr kohli give u enough time for designing?????or u thought nobody wud notice her clothes....all her outfits r of one design only jus the colours r different..
also the concept of jus one outfit for rani seemed weird.....i mean if she had to look as human as possible she should be wearing different clothes daily na...or least she shd have been given a pair of clothes if mr kohli wanted to show her from poor background.......dont know what he was thinking when he came up with the idea of one outfit......
wud like to point to one thing i just didnt like and thought evrything was overboard abt it.........one incident shown in movie where as an attempt to jeopardize the deal ranbir is keen to make with an american guy ,its shown that the kids misbehave with the children of american guy...and that too in such a stupid way.. they pour water on their heads...make them wet ,then they roll the white kids in sand on the golf course....then vashisht makes the kid hold golf ball in his mouth and is abt to hit the ball with the golf stick when geeta sees him and stops him....but still which children around 8 to 10 yrs of age will allow themselves to be manhandled like that by kids of their own age i wud like to know for sure....and then they dont even apologize for it and wen the american guy shouts at them , ranbir comes with some crap that nobody talks with my kids like that.....totally misdirected scene..big blunder in the movie....after this incident its shown that kids reconcile with ranbir....maybe kunal kohli wanted to show to the kids in the movie that ranbir wud stick by them whatever they do......but it doesnt mean that ranbir does not make them understand when they r so wrong in their action...and after they had patched up it should have been shown that the kids apologize to the kids of the american guy and accept their mistake......
other than these minor hiccups it is an enjoyable movie....keep ur brains aside when u go for it.......kids will love the movie for all the magic shown.....watch it when u wanna spend a light hearted fun filled evening......u ll be smiling at the end of it :)
