rajesh gindwani this new attempt of Yash Chopra of making villains out of heroes is satisfactory.Both heroes of the movie, Shah Rukh and Sunny Deol benefited tremendously from this film that will decide their career in the future. Sunny will make more movies where he'll play heroes with intense action like in Jo Bhole So Nihaal while Shah Rukh will use a lot of stuttering in his next films. but it is the choice of the heroine that raises the question. Darr was made after the debacle of Yash's Lamhe. it it obvious that the failure of the movie is blamed upon solely on the shoulders reigning queen Sridevi,as when you are on top everyone wants you down.Instead of repeating the queen,Yash has used Juhi Chawla, who despite of being a talented actress, cannot match even a hair strand with the queen bee Sridevi.Even if Sridevi not being in the movie, the shadow of the queen still hangs around in Yash's mind as he clothes Juhi and makes her dance like Sridevi in a white sari, which Juhi fails miserably.
Ibuk This was Bollywood's answer to Fatal attraction and this is a classic film in its own right. Juhi Chawla was good and so was Sunny Deol but it was Shah Rukh Khan who shot to fame as the stalker. Since then he has become a favourite of the Chopra's (Dilwale Dulhaniya le Jayenge, Mohhabatein, Dil to pagal hai, Veer Zaara and Chak De India). Shah Rukh at first appears to be a villain but then towards the end you start to sympathize with him. The scripting was superb and the songs were chartbusters. My favourites are Too mere samne and Jaadu teri nazar.After the dismal failure of the underrated Lamhe Yash Chopra fought back with Darr. The dialogues were memorable, the k..k..Kiran dialogue is often repeated. Since Darr Yash Chopra has slipped bit. Dil to pagal hai was bad but he redeemed himself slightly with Veer Zaara, which was far far better. This was Yash Chopra's last masterpiece.
Balle06 Darr (1993) was an incredible movie. In my opinion, it is one of Bollywood's finest. The movie itself triggers feelings of sympathy, fear, confusion, happiness, and sadness. Shahrukh's role was unbelievable, in fact he gave obsession a new face. Juhi Chawla's innocent and girlie character contrasted greatly with Shahrukh's fiery and passionate character. Sunny Deol's role made the "good guy" role seem like the "bad guy" one. The fact that Shahrukh, not Sunny, captivated the audience's attention proves that everyone has that helpless inner drive to pursue something that's not really in their hands. Even though the movie is several years old, it surpasses any recent one. The song "Tu Mere Samne" was full of passion and meaning. His personality fit the role perfectly. He should seriously consider re-starring in a similar film.
SirMoUK This isn't far away from the trash that Bollywood normally makes but there's just something really good about it.The title song is one of Bollywoods best and is haunting throughout. This is one of the films (along with Baazigar - a must see Bollywood film) that made Shah Rukh Khan and it's for this you have to check it out.Other reviews give away the story - it is a fairly basic idea - ShaRukh definitely stands out and one of his final expressions right at the end made me give this film an extra star.Its fairly cheesy but definitely worth watching if you are new to Bollywood or not! 8/10
