Theaters screen hit Hindi films regularly. <BR/><BR/>Btw, I saw Saawariya and though I generally like SLB's movies, this one was not up to my expectations. Sets were really beautiful though. :)indicaspecieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04082836899942612554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27450131.post-57483257770197103852007-11-29T09:15:00.000+05:302007-11-29T09:15:00.000+05:30@Backpakker - Oh is it, willw a tch the Tamil one....@Backpakker - Oh is it, willw a tch the Tamil one.

My kids who usually love Sharukh masalas...didn't particularly enjoy this one...I guess that says it all....I think I will go and watch saawariya sometime..sounds like a good movie:)travel plazahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02031243106498119523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27450131.post-18026440930884696852007-11-27T19:47:00.000+05:302007-11-27T19:47:00.000+05:30I watched OSO and it wasn't up to my expectation a...I watched OSO and it wasn't up to my expectation at all.

That is how you rank any event or level of happiness. <BR/><BR/>A simple explanation to your comment is- I had a set of expectations from both the films based on MY interests and both turned out to be right.<BR/><BR/>I liked JWM and I think it is an entertainer.AJEYA RAOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15770471904480140472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27450131.post-72174762128348389072007-11-27T16:38:00.000+05:302007-11-27T16:38:00.000+05:30@Chintu - I did read that part.

Its may be acceptable to immitate someone but it is not to show disrespect to such a legendery actor.<BR/><BR/>@Cuckoo - I expected OSO to be a light entertainer, but to be very frank it did not make me smile much. I think there are two catogeries like COmmercial and Mainstream movie lovers....Do watch the Sawariya soooon! The later group is thin. :-))AJEYA RAOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15770471904480140472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27450131.post-12301725515998857922007-11-27T12:55:00.000+05:302007-11-27T12:55:00.000+05:30Replying to cuckoo- i think Ajeya could write this...Replying to cuckoo- i think Ajeya could write this post even before watching the two movies. I find his reactions quite pre-conceived. Now, i have not seen either of the two, and neither do i plan to, as my pre-conceived notion is that both are much below par :). I would rather go watch JWM again.rajeevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15548730037170106685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27450131.post-43576062640779542132007-11-27T10:24:00.000+05:302007-11-27T10:24:00.000+05:30At last !!

Me too like you, a fan of SLB.<BR/><BR/>When I wrote that post, I was traveling and was told about Saawariya being a flop. But at that time itself I had decided to watch it sooner or later. Going to do that when I get some time and I can find it in some theater. <BR/><BR/>Comparing OSO to this is not fair. OSO, at most would be an one time watch light entertainer. Also, I am not a fan of Farah Khan so can skip it as well.Cuckoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09593822080382578122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27450131.post-20695819717067656382007-11-27T09:53:00.000+05:302007-11-27T09:53:00.000+05:30Did you see SRK and Farah Khan "apologise" to Mano...Did you see SRK and Farah Khan "apologise" to Manoj Kumar?
