Movie Review: Mumbai Meri Jaan
Thursday, 13. November 2008, 04:36:44
Finally got a chance to watch this movie! I'd been waiting to watch it ever since it came out but never had the time.. but since I've quit my job... I've had all the time to catch up on some many things!
Well anyway... the movie is based on the blasts that took place in Mumbai this year. Surprisingly only a small part of the movie is about the actual blast. The story revolves around the lives of the myriad of people who live in Bombay and how life was before the blast and about the aftermath of the blasts.
I thought the acting was top notch... especially Paresh Rawal who plays a cop who is just a week away from retirement. Kay Kay also does a top notch job as a Hindu who is suspicious of the majority of Muslims, Irfaan is great as a tea seller out for revenge against big malls where he feels (and is) excluded. Madhavan has also done a greta job of an idealist Indian who quesitons his idealism after the blasts. I thought Soha Ali Khan was the least effective of all the actors... she does an average job..
