Duniya Phirangi Syapa Hai!! Dil Bole Hadippa!!….
Looks like after Dhan Te Nan Shahid is all set to create a new national anthem…His sophisticated looks and body is a real treat for the Women audience!
Not only Shahid but, it’s a breath of fresh air to see Rani tickling the audience with her humor… Something janta stopped expecting from her after last few serious roles.
The story begins with a Punjabi kudi Veera Kaur (Rani Mukherjee) challenging a Pind da Munda over hitting sixers for every ball thrown by him. And of course she wins! This opening makes the audience aware of her craze for cricket.
She is ready to do anything to get herself in the Cricket Team.
Enter Aman Cup!! It’s a cricket tournament founded by two friends- Vikram Singh (Vicky) The Indian team lead (Anupam Kher) and Liyaqat Ali Khan (Lucky) Pakistani team lead (Dilip Tahil). One a Punjabi and the other a Pakistani! The legend of this cup is that Indian team always looses! There is a lot of exaggeration at this point on the sentimental importance of Cricket for Vicky (Anupam Kher). Veera is also disturbed about Indian Team’s performance in Aman Cup!
The movie is then splashed with a couple of colorful songs with Shanno (Rakhi Sawant) showing some of her talents!!
Veera apparently is good in dancing too! As she is confident that “Aisa ek bhi munda paida nahi hua jo Veera ko out kar sake!”
Enter Rohan (Shahid Kapoor) a Vilayti Babu from London, who is a Cricket Star!! He lives with his mom (Poonam Dhillon). Story unfolds: Rohan happens to be Vicky’s son! Who is currently brooding over yet another failure in the Aman Cup. So Vicky calls on his Son on the pretext of a Heart Attack! Rohan comes to India to find his dad all hale and hearty.
Vicky asks Rohan to help him out and save his Cricket team.
One fine day Rohan meets Veera where they have a usual tussle of India v/s Vilayat!
Now comes the humorous part when Rohan is the new Captain/Coach of Aman team and Veera disguises herself as Veer to be a part of it. Rohan has no clue. Veer is an excellent batsman!! Audience will roll with laughter at her attempt to blend in the guy team and to do all the strenuous exercises!!
Hats off to you Rani!
The cricket practice continues. On the other hand after a couple of songs Rohan falls for Veera! And then the roller coaster ride starts.
One fine day during cricket practice Rohan finds Veera in the men’s room naked! After a lot of drama Veera escapes his questions saying that Veer is her brother! Veer gets a lot of preferential treatment from Rohan after that! Rohan still has no clue about the Veera-Veer disguise.
When the final match is days away and Rohan proposes his love to Veera!!
Then comes the shocking twist! But you will have to watch it for yourself!!
Rani and Shahid are really exceptional. The dance numbers are groovy. Specially the Dil Bole Hadippa Remix at the end of the movie. It makes the audience stick to their seats and makes them go Hadippa!!
I would call it a 3/5. A great stress buster, especially after a hard day at office! J
Hi,
I am trying to do something different… something new…
I am trying my hand at Writing… which until now I considered to be somebody else’s virtue.
I am not even sure what the outcome will be and I couldn’t care less. I am letting myself go. Letting my thoughts wander. Hoping that someday my thoughts will find a way… a way straight to the hearts of millions and millions of people…
This is just the beginning. An honest attempt.
I can’t believe how scrambled and disoriented my thoughts are right now. But I want to keep going…..
It’s amazing how the mind works. How your thoughts flood one after another until you find a way to express them. I recently found out that writing is one such outlet.
It was my big sister who first introduced me to book love. I always thought books are a mere torture instruments used by so-called teachers on poor innocent minds. And I am glad I was wrong.
So as I was saying my sister gave me a book to read when I was in 10th standard and she told me “enjoy it”…for a moment I thought my sister had lost it. How can anyone enjoy a book?
I tried it anyway… I remember first few pages of that book. I really thought my sister didn’t love me anymore. But gradually I understood how much she did!!
If not for her I would have been missing one of the most important parts of my life today… Books…
I definitely can’t say it was love at first sight but it is a long lasting relationship.
I’m taking my relationship to the next level…
So much for the evolution of Book Love …
There are more reasons though for my joining the NTW team. It’s not only books I am passionate about. Fashion, movies, fun rank equally high on my list. I love living! And who doesn’t? 
So I am gonna take you on a ride through all the interesting (and sometimes not-so-interesting-but-important-nonetheless) things in life.
Ready to have some fun?
Let’s go!!
I know.. I know… I have been silent, absent, gone for more than a month almost! And I do owe you an explanation…
Well, I came under some “medical condition” lately, that kept me and my family worried. Days of angst -– just didn’t realize when they turned into weeks and almost a month went by without me doing anything to reach out. 
Now things are better. Improving. So I thought of bouncing back.
I did do a few things between these days. Mostly the things that could take my mind off the worries and physical discomfort:
1. I read books – The complete Twilight Saga series. (When I was confined to bed.)
2. Completed a couple beading projects (When I was well enough to sit up)
3. Sought help from my sister and got her agreed to keep you company in case I have to disappear from the blogosphere anytime without advance notice. She’ll be contributing regularly and will cover for me if I fall off the face of this earth.
I’ll surely post more on my beading projects and books shortly. For now let me introduce you to my sister.
Her name is Dhanashri / Pranjali. Being 6 yrs younger to me she is almost like a baby to me than a younger sister. As I spent most of my schooling time in a residential school, I was not so close to her during our childhood. But when I came home and lived with my parents for my college studies, we became really inseparable. She’s vivacious, witty and very enthusiastic about life in general. I’ll let you watch this space for more from her instead of me doing all the talking… I’m sure you’ll enjoy her company
