EXCLUSIVE REVIEW BY HANUMANT BHANSALI
Yashraj Raj Films enterprise brings you Dil Bole Hadippa!, starring Shahid Kapoor, Rani Mukherjee, Rakhi Sawant and Sherlyn Chopra. The movie has been directed by debutante Anurag Singh.
The movie revolves around small-town Punjabi kudi- Veera Kaur (Rani Mukherjee), working in a local theatre group but is passionate for cricket and imagines for playing for Indian cricket team.
Rohan (Shahid Kapoor) is a skilled captain of a county cricket team in England. Rohan returns to India to captain his father’s cricket team which has been losing for the last 8 years. Rohan is all set to make the best team ever in the history of cricket and save his father’s pride.
In pursuance to play in Rohan’s team Veera sports a turban and a beard to accomplish her dreams. Impressed by Veera’s commitment, passion and liveliness for cricket, she finds a place in Rohan’s team and becomes Veer Pratap Singh. And the movie seems to take off nicely.
However in mid of all Rohan (Shahid Kapoor) falls in love with Veera (Rani Mukherjee) and suddenly the movie takes a turn and the love story begins. To add oomph to the movie there is hot sizzling damsel ‘Miss Chandigarh’ Soniya (Sherlyn Chopra) and item girl Shanno Amritsari (Rakhi Sawant).
The movie also sees some great friendship and well defined role shared by Vikramjit Singh (Anupam Kher) and Liyaqat Ali Khan (Dalip Tahil).
The climax of the movie is outstanding and ends with what was expected- a Cricket Match between India v/s Pakistan. The match has been well executed and keeps you on the edge of your seat till the end with some thrilling moments.
Overall, the on screen chemistry between Shahid and Rani is worth watching. The movie experiences great dedication and a well handled role by Rani Mukherjee. Shahid Kapoor is decent in his role but the movie more descends towards Rani. Anupam Kher and Dalip Tahil are wonderful in their characters and do justice to their part.
However, there are a few flaws in the movie which makes it an average film. The movie practices an overdose of emotions. Anurag Singh’s direction is good in bits-n-parts and surely could have been much better. The songs in the movie aren’t great, they fail to make any impression and become bore. And finally, the script is ordinary and is predictable.
On a whole it’s an average flick!
Radiosargam Movie Rating: 4/10
