Going by how well certain 'bokwass' films like 'Chennai Express' have fared at the box office in the recent past (thanks to SRK's star power), we're dreading the day when 'Krrish 3' breaks all previous records and is declared the biggest blockbuster in the history of Indian cinema. Spare us the horror people.
This is when Bollywood actually needs a superhero to save its own future, a real superhero - not 'Krrish #whichever', we repeat. We feel for our readers and would hate to let them go through such a trauma without proper guidance. Here are some reasons why you should totally avoid this film and enjoy the festive season instead.
The Name
In a scene from the first of this series, 'Koi Mil Gaya', Hrithik Roshan amazes his professor by solving a complicated math equation in a jiffy. If only he had passed on this gene to his son Krrish. Maybe then he would've known that a sequel to a film called 'Krrish' should be 'Krrish 2' and not 'Krrish 3'. Math is definitely not his superpower.
'Is-That-Lifted-From-Hollywood?' Visual Effects
Visual effects have the power of compensating for even barely-there plots in films. Sadly, this film doesn't live up to our expectations on this one important thing. There is nothing new in seeing a caped superhero flying against the backdrop of skyscrapers. A lot of scenes look inspired (read copied) from 'The Batman' series while some others remind us of Shaktimaan.
Vivek Oberoi
It was only a few weeks ago that he subjected us to 'Grand Masti'. For anyone who has seen the film, Vivek's presence in any film whatsoever should be a deal breaker in the first place. What was Rakesh Roshan thinking when he signed Vivek to play villain in the film?
The Mentally Challenged Father
It was a decade ago that 'Koi Mil Gaya' released, a time when we found Hrithik's mentally challenged act entertaining. It was one of Hrithik's best performances and probably that's why he decided to never step out of that character. It was still tolerable when the directors dragged 'Rohit's character to 'Krrish'. But his overdose in 'Krrish 3' looks downright stupid and unconvincing.
Priyanka Overacting Chopra
Priyanka is sheer brilliance, no doubting that. But the moment she steps into a Rakesh Roshan film, she is somehow transported back to her 'Andaaz' days. She looks straight out of the early 2000s and displays an overabundance of expressions even in the most inconsequential scenes. Right from her make-up to her clothes, her appearance screams o-u-t-d-a-t-e-d.
Corny Dialogues
The dialogues are simply cringe-worthy, as observed from the promos of the film. If there is anything good about the dialogues, it is the fact that they are as obsolete as Priyanka Chopra's acting.
Kangana Ranaut's Appearance
What creature is Kangana playing in the film - more importantly in the song 'Dil Tu Hi Bata'? A mix between a witch and some rare tropical bird, maybe. Or did they hire Lady Gaga to design for her? How would people endure on the big screen which is this unbearable to see on television. We wont be surprised if from now on, mothers from far off villages would use Kangna's reference to scare their babies off to sleep instead of Gabbar.
Music - If You Can Call It That
If you're planning to watch 'Krrish 3', you've either not heard the songs or you're simply deaf. And strangely enough, if you like the music, you really must be Krrish 4. Rajesh Roshan has composed music that would've sounded outdated even a century ago. The singers are wrongly chosen and the lyrics make your ears bleed. May God, Allah aur Bhagwan save us and the rest of the mankind from such fatal attacks in the name of music. The music of Krrish 3 is an epidemic, that too a very noisy one. If it hasn't infected you yet, run. Run while you can.
This Statement From Priyanka Chopra
We know some of you would still be adamant on watching the film. Hopefully, this excerpt from an interview given by Priyanka Chopra sets you right. "There is Vivek's character that is bad and his army of mutants; they are called 'maanvar' which are a mix of human and animal. There is a chameleon girl played by Kangana, and then there is scorpion, cheetah girl, rhino, frog man in it" says Priyanka Chopra. Is there also a pink bunny in the film or is that too intelligent for the toddlers who seem to have written the script?
