Starring a topless Ranveer Singh and an almost topless
Deepika Padukone( damn is she pretty!) comes this no brainer from Sanjay Leela
Bhansali. Before we start, this is just my personal opinion on the movie and is
not meant to influence the people reading this post. It is still raking in the
moolah so I guess many loved it. I didn’t.
To be fair, the trailers did say that this movie was set in fantasy land but I suppose there are certain logics that apply even in said fantasy land. Unfortunately Mr.Bhansali goes way over that line here.
The plot is similar to Ishaqzaade
and half a dozen other Bollywood movies based on Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet
so I am not going to delve too much on that. Considering Ishaqzaaade was the
most recent in this series of retellings of the epic, I’ll just take the
liberty of comparing Ram Leela with Ishaqzaade. I am lazy, yes but so were the
dialogue writers of this movie. Speaking of which, among idiotic villains
firing bullets at everything except the actual target (same as ishaqzaade, just
even more stupider here) and policemen getting bribed with softcore porn
cds(that’s a first) are dialogues that put even my thala TR* to shame. No, seriously.

To be fair, there were a few genuinely good things in the
movie. Deepika padukone for instance. Or that scene where Ranveer is made Head?
No, that was actually really stupid. Or that scene where deepika’s mom has a
change of heart at the end? Nah, too cliché. Or that scene where… Damn, guess
Deepika was the only good thing that ever happened in the movie!
Final verdict? If you are a hardcore Deepika Padukone fan
like me, bear the boredom and watch this movie in theatres. If you aren’t, wait
for it to come on tv. But seriously, how can you NOT be her fan!?
P.S. Priyanka Chopra, I can agree that wearing a shirt with
the top two buttons undone makes you look hot. But seriously, the same on a
blouse that tiny? Tch tch.
*Vijay T. Rajendar or
TR as he is more commonly known is a youtube sensation(without having to try too hard), actor, singer, dancer, lyric and dialogue
writer, choreographer, cinematographer, costume designer, director, producer
and everything else that could be associated with cinema. Last heard, he was
trying his hand at ‘production food catering’ because that is apparently the
only thing he hasn’t done yet.
