Guru bhai aavya che

cld have been better
cld have been shorter
cld have been more stylized
cld have done without 2-3 songs especially tere bina and barso re
cld have done without Vidya Balan and Madhavan (sheer waste of talents)..any Jack and Jill cld have done their part

movie definitely lacks the Maniratnam tch...the movie tremendously misses his deft finesse and silken touch...direction is not at all exceptional...though some scenes have been executed well like the Abhishek-Mithun-Madhavan argument at Mithun's place, Abhishek-Madhavan confrontation at Madhavan's home and the climax......editing lives a lot to be desired....

Songs like Barso re and tere bina impedes the speed of the film....movie moves at snail's pace in the post interval scenes.....

In terms of acting, Abhishek takes the entire cake with some small bits and pieces left for Mithun and Aishwarya.....Abhishek fits the character of Gurukant Desai perfectly...his dialogue delivery, physical appearance, walk are spot on.....the climax scene at the court as well as the cricket stadium are clap/whistle worthy.......Aishwarya acts well in the courtroom sequence....Arya Babbar as Aish's sister is ok.....Madhavan and Vidya do justice to their role...Mithun is back with a bang after a string of inconsequential roles in the past 2-3 yrs....

Some of the songs are great like Aey Hairate, Baazi Laga my fav (though was not included in the final cut) and Jaage Hai

My overall rating: 2.5/5
