There have been so many negative reviews about this movie so I was a little skeptical about it. But it's Shah Rukh Khan and I really wanted to see how this movie went. The opening sequences with Gaurav Channa, the 25 year old Aryan Khanna fan were sweet and seeing his love for his idol was nice.

But the escalation of the movie into pain and revenge was a little jarring. The motivations of the character to ruin Aryan Khanna seemed a bit unnecessary. The obsessive compulsive nature of the character was on full display when he beat up someone who had insulted his idol. SRK does obsessive characters with a lot of conviction and it really translates well on screen. The plot, though, could definitely have been reworked to make it better. Acting wise, no complaints, Shah Rukh gives other big stars a run for their money. A lot of action scenes that took up a lot of run time. I wanted to skip those scenes because nothing else was happening. Had a thriller angle been taken for the film, instead of wasting time and money for VFX on the stunts, this movie would have been much better.

All in all, an entertaining film that brings out SRK's acting chops as an actor who can really do negative shades well.
