Delhi-6: Not too great

The movie is a great portrayal of life in Delhi-6. With AR Rehman's background score and Rakesh Mehra's attention to detail, movie is quite charming in the first half. Each character has been selected meticulously and very well depicted.

Seems like Rakesh Mehra was so busy in showing the life of Purani Dilli and its characters (which no doubt he did excellently), he forgot about building a story line. In the second half, the movie starts struggling for a plot, and Rakesh Mehra decides to make it a message movie. The message was very weak, and also not presented well.
Last 30 min was a disaster for the movie.

  2. I liked the movie never-the-less. First half mein hi paise vasool ho gaye :) Ram-leela choreography and music was done exceptionally well, I wish there was more of it. I agree that the story was loose and end was... confused. But, overall, I think worth a watch.
