Drona - Movie Review
Via Bollywood Buzz.
DRONA is a big film in all respects — big stars, big canvas, big expenditure on SFX, big ad spend, big expectations. Sadly, it’s a big, big, big letdown as well.
Fantasy/adventure films are a rarity in Bollywood. Actually, you want to laud Goldie Behl for being courageous, for venturing into a lane that’s rarely visited by dream merchants here. But the screenplay is a complete mess. In fact, if at all there would be Razzies in Bollywood, the three writers of DRONA — Jaydeep Sarkar, Rohini Killough and Goldie Behl — should be nominated proto for coming up with a sloppy and slipshod screenplay.
What saddens your heart is the fact that the Lullas of Eros and Shrishti Arya, the producers of DRONA, have spared no efforts in giving DRONA a spectacular look. The vision is perfect, but how about narrating an absorbing and attention-grabbing story? You remember DRONA for its striking visuals, not storyline. It’s like embellishing priceless and precious jewels on a mannequin.
