It's been quite some time since I saw a real good movie, a very long time since I saw a good movie which also happened to be a blockbuster. RDB is one of those rare movies which gets the message through to the audience in a real smooth way & also collects $$$ happily.
RDB is about a group of "Happy go Lucky" guys, who just don't wanna be out of the college life & their transformation in to a more matured individuals. Amir Khan as DJ sizzles, Siddharth (BOYS) is pretty cool & everyone in the movie is too good. Madhavan in his cameo stands right before our eyes, we see few people around us in today's world like him.
Think of a very happy day in your life & out of the blue things start going wrong (just not wrong but to the worse). This happens to all of us at some point of time. This is what RDB is all about.
Sue's (Alice Patten) grand-pa was a British Jailer in India & he happens to see the Indian youth fighting for freedom. In a way this old guy revered these revolutionaries & keeps writing about them in his good old diary. Sue reads through his memoir's & his very keen in making a documentary about Chandrasekhar Azad, Bhagat Singh, Rajguru, Ashfakulla Khan, Ramprasad Bismil & Durga Bhabi.
I have never heard about the last 3 people. Amir & his friends decide to act in this documentary for the sake of Sue (she kinda becomes a friend & Amir's Love interest). But they struggle to see y anyone would die for anything. Madhavan is another friend who also is an IAF Pilot, when he dies in a crash due to some junk spares put in the MIG flight. The politicians conveniently say that our Maddy is gud enuf to pilot a bi-cycle & giving a MIG to him was too big a mistake.
After a few scenes which would happen "if we were in cross-swords with politicians", they realise that they should justify Madhavan's death. They plan & execute the Defence Minister successfully. When that stupid DM is made a martyr they get pi$$ed off & want to make people know the truth.I'll leave the climax out of here but it was real touching & a really good movie.
Amir Khan excels as Azad & in the scene where he wonders why everything is going bad for them (All of us would have been in similar situations). Siddharth is too good & composed till the very end. The last scene where Amir confides to siddharth about his love for sue, among other things is a pretty good scene as well.
The songs r too gud (A.R.R, ofcourse) & the way the songs blend with the movie is very refreshing.
This has become one of my favourite movies, infact I would say it's really as good as swades.
We drove 200 miles to see this movie & it was worth every single mile. :-)
