Zero Movie

  • Watched the Shah Rukh Khan movie Zero at PVR Cinemas, Koramangala.
  • I liked the movie.
  • Inspite of what has been said about the movie, I liked it.
  • As an Indian one should have no problem watching the movie.
  • This movie is made by Indians about Indians and for Indians.
  • Any other peoples may not like it.
  • I salute Shah Rukh Khan for this effort.
  • He made his height short.
  • He knows he is King Khan but still he made himself as dwarf.
  • Basically he tested the world, the environment everything.
  • He made such a bad movie where his entire larger than life persona is simply destroyed.
  • He tried making such a kind of movie with "Fan".
  • He is testing.
  • Let us see how much hit he takes.
  • He is a very successful businessman.
  • Surely he can take such kind of risk.
  • And I feel he is not much affected.
  • People criticised the movie but if anything Shah Rukh Khan only emerged stronger.
  • In fact if such a movie can make 100 crores than nothing like it.
  • People will still flock to theatres to watch SRK next movie.
  • They will still go to Bandra Bandstand to watch SRK outside his residence and so on.
  • Coming back to the movie, SRK goes to Mars in the movie.
  • And if it would have been a Hollywood movie, they would have focused mainly on the Mars trip.
  • But since this is an Indian movie, they focused on human emotions like love story and heartbreaks and marriage and so on.
  • The thing is one should forget if a trip to Mars is ever possible.
  • Just watch the movie.
  • Here I would say that I watched KRK review and I do agree with his points
    • There was no need to show Anushka Sharma with speech impairment. Just showing that she was bound to wheelchair would have been enough.
    • Next if Indians go to US and become astronauts and scientists then where will US people go? They will not go to "graze on green grass like cattle" will they?
  • Zeeshan Ayub also does a good role in the movie I must mention. 
  • Basically all the people have done their roles perfectly.
  • The film can be divided into three chapters : At Meerut, At Mumbai, At US (NASA).
  • Worth watching according to me.
  • Maybe if not big screen than on TV or online.
  • ADDED 4th JAN 2019 
    • The reason SRK made this Zero movie the way it is is because he was harassed when he made Raees.
    • People from Shiv Sena and BJP had demanded the film be banned.
    • Then they relented and wanted the movie to be screened to them before release.
    • It means that Censor Board has no meaning in the country.
    • These people the so called Hindu Nationalists under the garb of nationalism are a law unto themselves.
    • SRK had to show certain scenes in the movie Raees with lot of "pruning".
    • In fact in Raees, SRK a big hero was made as a Zero by these so called Hindu nationalists who are basically Goons and Goondas who demanded a lot of changes.
    • So he made Zero which was initially Zero to begin with and no one would have any objection to begin with.
    • In effect it must have been deeply satisfying to the SRK soul to make a movie liek Zero.
    • So he made a movie which was already "Zero"
    • Another point SRK has done tremendous effort for national integration.
    • Basically SRK has his origin in Pathan culture of Afghanistan.
    • And has respect for Punjabi and South (mainly Tamil) culture.
    • That is why in majority of movies Punjabis and Tamilians are shown in favourable light including in Zero.
    • Anushka Sharma is half Afghani and half Punjabi in the movie.
    • Madhavan is Tamil scientist and so on.
    • SRK has done his effort for national integration like he has always done in his earlier movies as well.
