SRK in "The Good Vs The Bad" - Ra.One

The Movie released on Wednesday and as it was Diwali time - We were too rushed about the work at hand and a lot of things to do, I booked the tickets for Sunday with my BFFs.

The Sunday finally turned out to be my turn to watch Ra.One after a long super Diwali vacation I had.

Although being negativily publicized and criticized for its exaggerated IMC plan, the VFX applied, The second half being boring and what not, I believe the Movie stands upfront in all the aspects to become a complete Bollywood Blockbuster. I will never go with collections it has made, but the way it has portrayed itself - is a rare commoditized combination of the ultra-modern graphics, the Indian Niceness coupled with a few fun loving scenes. The storyline makes you feel that we still believe in making this world a nicer place with the essence of Good winning over bad. Obviously, we have our own views on how  the movie would have been with some scenes added and subtracted but I can say that SRK again has done a marvellous job as Shekhar as well as G.ONE... "Superhero status achieved"

On a lighter note, for me, the best thing happened in the movie was SRK taking my name for at least 100 times... Pratik...Prateek... It was just great and I feel honored to have him call my name....Kinda blessed!

We can so easily criticize something which we have not made and so easily get influenced with what others say... I would rather plead all of you to think - honestly about the movie and respect the kinda art that they have put foreword, the kinda message that they want to say and the kinda actors who have acted brilliantly.

To summon up the movie my rating would be 4.5 on a scale of 5 with the room (of 0.5) better direction would have expected by Mr. Anubhav Sinha

The IMC plan was one of its kind and only King Khan can do such heroics. He has already been proved as a Super Marketer when we saw his team KKR in the inaugural IPL - was the only team to make profits even after being right below on Leaderboard. Not to forget, it did repeat his profit making in the rest of the IPLs too.

Very few people in the country would probably have the privilege to have a Brand Persona that he has in India as well as around the Globe. Not to forget the number of Filmfares he has got as compared to his fellow peers in the fraternity.

Being an MBA student it only makes me feel proud that my favorite actor - also happens to be the God of Marketing.

Honestly i have not yet seen the movie so dont know much abut the movie Ra.one but surelly i culd like to tell u tht the dialouges in the movie are very horrible i remeber one which i heard in the promos " ladayi goliyo se nahi dil se jeethi jathi hai " :D :D . when heard tht dialoug i decided not to go :) :) but i am exicted to watch DON 2 which more and far better than ra.one . SRK is gr8 in marketing no dought in tht but he sometimes get cheap and cheap while marketng (pura chillargiri ) . I am sure tht wat made u write this bolg its just because ur name was taken for at least 100 times... Pratik...Prateek.. in the movie .

Hi Pratik,

I write to you on behalf of The Viewspaper (www.theviewspaper.net) which is India's largest youth paper and the 5th largest media company on Facebook.

We are organizing the World's Largest Tweet-A-Thon! and would like to invite you as a panelist for the same.

From American political journalists in the 1950s, to The Economist magazine not so long ago; speculation has run rife about India and whether we will survive as a nation.

Poverty. Corruption. Terrorism. Disease. Currency woes. We’ve got it all, and more. We’ve been written off, doomsdayed, delegitimized – but we keep coming back! What is the root of this appetite for adversity, this solid resilience?

It is our nation’s optimism. No matter how much you bring her down, India feels up!

A first of its kind initiative, the #IFeelUp Tweetathon is a 3-day virtual conference, which delights in the irrepressible state of the nation, in spite of its laundry list of issues. Over 72 hours, we’ll be bringing in 400 panelists for non-stop discussion, and that’s where you come in.

We would like to invite you as a panelist for a 30 minute session wherein you can participate from any part of the world.

If you're interested, kindly email us your contact information so that we could provide you with more details about the event.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Regards,
Garvita
