"Om Shanti Om" Movie Review
Om Shanti Om will once again see the formidable team of Farah Khan and Shahrukh Khan.
Shahrukh Khan is surely upto something big when it comes to movies. His latest venture “Chak De India” has been a great hit across different parts of the nation. He is back with yet another show stopper called “Om Shanti Om”.
Om Shanti Om stars the much hyped Deepika Padukone opposite to Shahrukh Khan. This will be one of the very few debutants Shahrukh has worked with. The trailers are already getting good reviews.
This film is produced under Shahrukh Khan’s own production known as “Red Chillies Production”. The film is directed by Farah Khan and in addition to Shahrukh and Deepika* Shreyas Talpade plays a lead role as well. There would be a lot of other superstars making a brief appearance in the film but the main story revolves around these three characters. It is believed to be a remake of the classic Karz and in a similar situation; Shahrukh Khan is reborn in this movie. You will find glimpses of movies like Karz starring Rishi Kapoor and Birth starring Nicole Kidman.
Om Shanti Om is a tribute to the wonderful age of the 70s and the 80s that has given us the maximum number of classics. That was the age of disco and lights and we actually have to see the movie to check out how successfully Farah has directed this era. Films by superstars like Rajesh Khanna and Amitabh Bachchan have left some memorable dialogues amongst the audience.
This movie revolves around the film industry itself. Shahrukh khan has played a role of junior artist in the movie and Deepika Padukone is the heroin of the movie. She is playing as an established star in the film industry. Its like Shah Rukh Khan in a double role* once in the the late seventies and once in our time.How shahrukh tries to get his love and survives in this glamour world is the story all about
The story centers on an artist* Om (Shahrukh khan)* who grows up in the seventies* meets the love of his life (Deepika padukone) and shortly thereafter suffers an untimely demise. He is immediately reincarnated and the story flash-forwards to the present day. Haunted by the memories of his past life and love* he attempts to not only solve the mystery of his death* but also reunite with the love of his past life. The problem is that she is now much older than him and does not believe that he is the reincarnation of the man she once loved.
