EXCLUSIVE REVIEW BY HANUMANT BHANSALI
Touted to be the biggest release of Shah Rukh Khan ever, Om Shanti Om is a pocketful of funny moments and equally intense glitches. If you are awaiting an out and out entertainer then Om Shanti Om is going to disappoint your perception.
Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika are the lone winners in the film, with the fair amount of ham and subjective beauty minus acting. Nevertheless, the entangling storyline of Om Shanti Om is a remix of contemporary Bollywood setting and an eye capturing scenario from the 70s.
The story of Om Shanti Om, as the world knows is based on the reincarnation theme. The plot bears resemblance to Subhash Ghai’s musical hit Karz. Living under the faith of mother (Kirron Kher) and friend Pappu (Shreyas Talpade), is a junior artist Om Prakash Makhija. Om aspires to strike gold in the Hindi Film industry with his acting stint. Like most masala flicks, apna hero has a sugary eye for popular actress Shanti Priya (Deepika Padukone).
Om gets introduced to Shanti during a fire accident, which revokes happiness in the heart of Om. Likewise, Om’s dreams get shattered when he comes to know that Shanti is secretly married to film producer Mukesh Mehra (Arjun Rampal).
Life comes to a standstill, when Om witnesses the murder of Shanti Priya at the hands of Mukesh. The reason for this ruthless act of Mukesh act was Shanti’s unwanted pregnancy, that had hurt his conscience. The 1970s story comes to a full stop when Om gets killed in a fight with Mehra’s men.

bs movie. farah khan is a total amateur behind the camera, shah rukh is ok. rent it on dvd, direction is poor, screenplay is poor, not a well told story. saawariya was better, and not by that much either. both bakwas, disappointing diwali!

hi… everyone i want to say Om Shanti Om is one of the best entertain movie i ever seen i can give 100 from 100 everyone please be watch this movie real fun Deepika is hot very beautiful.
Please do not waste your time and money watching this movie. It is crap. SRK’s acting is terrible. The movie was boring and the story was silly. Please do not watch on big screen..you will fall asleep. Wait for DVD or VCD. That’s why only he could produce this movie…no one else was ready to put any money on this crap movie.
“No one else was ready to put any money”, hahahaha. SRK is laughing and with him the distributors. People in the whole world are enjoying OSO, because it is a nonsense film. It makes you laugh, cry, scare, enjoy.
The people who felt asleep during the film have no sense of humor.
The songs are great,people go watch OSO en emjoy a masala flick.
Om shanti om is exellent movie very intresting funny not boring at all i really loved it.i wished to see again shah rukh khans acting wow superb and dont miss this movie. “ROCK IN ROLL” srk is the king of the bollywood.
OSO must watch movie, people who do not like this movie seriously need to work on their sense of humor.
10 on 10 to this 100% entertainer.
greatest movie of a lifetime! i really enjoyed this movie.. 5 star movie..
om shanti om is a great blockbuster!
really saying, i did not even get a wink of sleep in the cinema! that was cooooool!
SRK and DEEPIKA have acted very well… the story neither goes very fast nor too slow… it is jst the correct speed(lol)!
the last scene is full of innumerable twists! dat gives more pleasure 4 watching.
ppl who don’t like om shanti om nor srk are all very big “FISHES”!!! haha!
I seldom watch hindi movies. and I have fallen asleep in some. But this one was different. The reason why it is going to be a super duper hit is why karz became a cult classic. The story is superb and so is the climax. Totally unexpected. Role reversal, masala, action, magic is all there. The thing which gives hollywood a run for their money is the magic here.
I saw this film “om shanti om” very very soper duper hit.Really i like this film and the roll of sharukh exclent.Please i again see this movei,so you see me this film.
