Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra wasn't kidding when he said he has tried to recapture the magic of Chandni Chowk. The movie was more about him revisiting the narrow bylanes of Chandni Chowk and the colourful characters who call it their home, while the story is almost an afterthought. It's only in the second part of the movie that a plot starts taking shape. He has cleverly used the Monkey Man mayhem that shook the nation (we are a nation that shakes for just about anything) a couple of years ago to bring to the fore the real issue of communal violence. Abhishek Bacchan's cool dude act grates the nerves and you get the feeling he promoting a Motorola cell phone which he waves around all the time. Sonam Kapoor looks adorable, hats off to whoever designed her look for the movie. Pran Chopra, Om Puri, Waheeda Rehman, Amitabh Bacchan, Rishi Kapoor are the other stars along with MTV VJ Cyrus Sahukar as a womanizing photographer, Vijay Raaz as a meanie cop and Range De Basanti's Atul Kulkarni as a cowering fella who finds his voice. Roshan (Abhishek Bacchan), who is the product of a Hindu-Muslim marriage, takes grandma (Waheeda Rehman) home as she wants to die there. He is left amused and bemused by the cacophony of Delhi 6 – jalebis, pigeons (that fly prettily but never shit on your head), cows, qawwali, the Ram Leela and the eventual showdown with an almost Rang De Basanti ending. The movie's a visual treat and Mehra has added a nice touch in the way he has juxtaposed the Ram Leela and later brought in the supposed madman who holds a mirror to everyone's face. Bottomline, there is a monkey within all of us. A timepass movie. No more, no less.
Rakesh Mehera has an excellent creativity, really a hard work and it seems in the movie. the direction,music,cinematography,screenplay,lyrics ofcourse. the only i didnt like is his direction and story completely covers musical part(which excels). Story strats in America and ends within us. Roshan(Abhishek) comes to India, "Dili" that too in dili 6 with her dadi(wahida) and find all places very crowdy but still alive. As story moves he experience everything which is the part of our tradition,culture like supersticiousness,dowery system,ect.. In between "kaala bandar" plays very important role. and finally opens up every one's head and shows them the real "you". Abhishek is nice as usual, dont really have the opportunity to show up still need to mention one scene when he feels helpless and hun wahida(beautiful).Sonam looks amazing in western too. Other people like Atul kulkarni,Om puri ect...are perfect on their part and character. Over all a movie worth watching. Dont look out for anyone's performance as there is no scope. it's more about storyline and direction. Enjoy....;)
its an amazing movie...hats of to d director who really presented delhi so beautifully.....i am proud to be a delhiite for all its flaws as well as its goodness...its v d ppl in delhi who r d good things in delhi as well as its flaws...i hope ppl really learn smthing from it.....d characters r amazing...in fact as d director puts it; d city itself is a character in d movie......though d end is too cliched but still it amazing
Delhi 6 is a story about Roshan (Abhishek Bachchan) who returns to India with his ailing Grandma (Waheeda Rahman), cause she wants to die in her homeland-India. Both comes to their old home, in Chandni Chowk. Here the journey starts towards love-hate relationship with the Walled Delhi. How interestingly he gets involved with riot of emotions and madness of Chandni Chowk, is worth to watch out for. Pen, Paper & Projection: Making a concept movie is very dangerous in Bollywood. Rakeysh did this once (Aks) and failed miserably. Still he was sure about this one, and man he succeeds by far. On a thin storyline of 'Black Monkey', Rakeysh has weaved such a strong movie. One just wonders how the connections are made. Movie starts with the aerial shot of Chandni Chowk. [the same in promo]. I got goosebumps all over. till a minute or so. And main theme starts unfolding. Suddenly we are taken to New York where Roshan and Grandma are about to leave. And comes to their ages old Haveli in Delhi. Till now we see grandeur journey of Delhi. Not the delhi which we are used to see...................
