Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi - a review

I saw Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi recently with my family. The story and its subject has a mass appeal and after a long time we have a film that can be prescribed for family viewing. Pure and devoted love scores over an expressive love for the girl. The triumph of old indian values on the modern liberal ideas has always been appreciated by indian mass. It was this which had appealed the mass in Shah Rukh's Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge where an innocent lover was shown to have given more importance to the approval of the girl's father than of the girl herself. This again is a dramatic love story which would appeal to all irrespective of mass or class and has a potential of becoming a genuine hit in terms of number of views ( and not in terms of the amount of money generated through overseas shows where lesser views end up giving a better revenue). The song Haule Haule resonates with the viewer's feelings and is used in a great way to leave a longlasting impression. The surprisingly pleasing climax of the film earns it a huge repeat value. Much talked about criticism that how a wife could not recognise her husband is a multiplex-class hangover and this has never been an issue for us as long as the story and the subject is treated as per our liking.
