Just when you think Bollywood couldn't get more melodramatic, Karan Johar comes up with K3G.
I'll be honest. I can't stand this film. Characters cry at the drop of a hat. To give them credit, all the actors excel in their respective roles (even Kareena, who gives me severe headaches with her clothes). Special mention should be made to Kajol (love the accent!) and Hrithik Roshan (this dude is beginning to impress me!). They're the bright spots of this otherwise damp (from all the characters' tears) film.
Songs are great, and so is the choreography. Check out Suraj Hua Madham. Not since Dil Se has a song captured my attention in this manner.
A lot of references are made to Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. I say, get a life and move ahead. We can do without the whole KKHH hangover. In fact, if you look closely, you'll see that K3G is really KKHH recycled. I mean, check this out.
KKHH: Little Anjali goes about trying to reunite Rahul and Big Anjali. Lots of tears shed. Touchy-feely reunion scene. Everyone cries happily in the end. K3G: Rohan (Hrithik Roshan) goes about trying to reunite Rahul (Shah Rukh Khan) and their Dad (Amitabh Bachhan). Lots of tears shed. Touchy-feely reunion scene. Everyone cries happily in the end.
If Bollywood keeps offering us films like this, I'll cry too (not happily). Pass me the Kleenex!
