My Name is Khan a Movie everyone was waiting to see..as it brings back the tremendous trio back Karan Johar-Shahrukh Khan-Kajol after 8 long yrs.So the Question is How good is it??
On the whole, MY NAME IS KHAN is a fascinating love story, has an angle of religion and a world-shaking incident as a backdrop. It not only entertains, but also enthrals and captivates the viewer in those 2.40 hours
Rizwan Khan (Shahrukh Khan) suffers fromAsperger’s Syndrome a disorder which makes it difficult for people to interact socially, and comes to live with his younger brother (Jimmy Shergill) in the US after their mother dies. He can′t express love and is uncomfortable interacting with people.
Rizvan Khan falls in Love with Mandira(Kajol)who works in a beauty saloon,she already has a kid(Sameer) with her ex-husband.She divorced her husband few years back.
Rizvan & Mandira get married & are well settled..but things take a U turn as the september 11 attack on twin towers take place..their son is killed by few local students..& mandira asks Rizvan to leave home..as she feels Rizvan & his religion was the reason she lost her son.Rizvan is shattered but his unability to express it to her & show that he cares forces him to leave her at home.. & move away from her life..but as he leaves he also promises to himself he will reach the President of United States & deliver his message that MY NAME IS KHAN & I AM NOT A TERRORIST.
The Story starts with Rizvan’s journey through US to reach the president,he keeps writing it in the book & also we are shown what obstacles he faces in his loong lonely journey.At the End He gets to meet the president & his message is delivered that I am Khan,I am a Muslim & I am not a Terrorist.
Here are the Few scenes & things i liked about the movie,putting them in points.
- Shahrukh & Kajol as usual sizzled on screen.
- Shahrukh’s character which suffered from Aspereger’s Syndrome was well played by him..Kudos!
- Songs were placed according to the situations Sajda was too good & also Noor-e-Khuda.
- Screenplay& Direction was nice.
- The scenes where SRK moves through his journey with noor-e-khuda song in the back ground was very touching.
- SRK falling short of money & takes a placard on the roads & displays it.. that reads ‘Repair almost anything’ & repairs vehicles to earn money for his journey.
- SRK talking about his son in the church & singing along Hum Honge Kamiyaab Ek Din(We shall overcome some day).
- Shahrukh’s initial scenes with kajol were funny & humorous..the way he describes & shows his love towards her.
Thus the film gives away the message the way it intended..it shows that good & bad people are everywhere.Irrespective of one’s religion we should care for each other after all we are humans.Try to give a helping hand to someone & u can show him a better path & a new ray of light & hope.
Over all i would give this film a 4 out of 5.
