It has been more than 10 days since i have watched a movie in the theatre. After Inception & Maryadaramma i got stuck at work closing the reports and sitting late nights to prepare them didnt get time to watch movies. Today i some how decided to catch up with a movie but i was in a dilemma which movie either Once Upon a time in Mumbaaai or Tere bin Laden. I checked in the net and realised there was a show of Tere Bin Laden at 8:05 PM and if i dont go today than wont be able to see it in theatre as by Friday the movie will be showning in morning only. So i left office at 7:20 PM. I started my bike drove at a speed of 70 km/hr took the route of via Old airport road-Yemalur-Bellandur-HSR Layout. My bike start crying once again because of my rash driving. After waiting at the signals and cutting through traffice I reached my garage size room at 7:55 PM dropped my bag, took bike documents and rushed to the PVR Cinemas. I reached the ticket booking counter at 8:10 PM and rushed to Audi 2. The movie has started and i was late by 10 mins. In 5 mins i realised i didnt miss much, also realised that the choice of the movie was perfect.
There are mainly two kind of movies one where you have good songs or cast or big budget or big promotions. The second category of movies are one where you have a new cast, low budget or less promotion but a based on fresh new idea. This movie Tere Bin Laden falls under the second category. I just loved the idea of this movie. These kind of movies are Off Beat movies. They are rare and come only once in a while.
The movie is sent in the background of Pakistan. The whole story of the movie revolves around a young man (Ali) who is working as a reporter for a very small channel. Like every young person he too has dreams and his dream is to go to USA but has tough luck always. One day he goes to a village to report the news of Rooster Cocking competition. There he comes across Bin Laden. He believes that he has unearthened secret and will be getting $25 million. He goes back to the Laden's village just to confirm if he is the real Laden or not soon realises his name Laden's real name is Noora and he grows hen and sell eggs in the village. This Laden doesn't speak Arabic and is scared like a rat. From here the funny part of the movie begin and take us on a laughter ride. This movie is nice leg pulling ritual of US attack on Afghan and Osama hunt.
I dont want to spill out the whole story in this blog and ruine the fun of the movie. I will recommed you to watch this movie. These kind of movie are more worth watching than the crappy big budget movies like Raavan. Watch this movie only if you have a good knowledge of Hindi else you will miss the fun. The whole fun in the movie lies in the dialogues and the way Noora and Ali speak. The cast in the movie also has the girl Sugandha Garg of Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na fame as Zoya the make up artist. Let me end this my telling you the moral of the story Short Cuts in life can never fetch you positive results. In the end our Laden marry his lady Zoya. The role of Noora played by Pradhuman Singh i guess can be nice start to a bright carrer for this young if he continues to act in these kind of.
World wouldn't have been the same without the real Laden or fake Laden
Do watch this movie.. I liked it you and sure you will also like it..
