D - Review

I dont know if D stands for Dawood or D stands for Downer! The movie was a total let down, not even close to any of the ram gopal verma movies.

the movie starts off with this guy from Dharavi going as a witness of a daylight murder to the police. After getting threats from one gang, he decides to not squeal to the police, instead join the rival gang and destroy the first gang. He does so. It seems, this is a prequel to Company. But in the movie, Deshu (read Dawood, randeep Hooda) and Chandu( Vivek oberoi in Company) have the same back ground, the same series of events happening to them. Okay, the story apart (there is nothing new you can make out of a gangster movie I suppose), the music in the movie is too loud and seems like a straight flick from Company. There are hardly any dialogues in the movie. Almost throughout the movie, there is background music and the talking is muted. The songs are hopeless and hopelessly placed in the movie. Of all people, who could play striptease in an item number, ramgopal verma had to choose Rajpal Yadav!!
Shashank Singh has been wasted in the movie. Randeep Hooda in the movie is okay. But there is hardly scope for acting. For, he is wearing aviator glasses all the time, does not laugh, does not cry, does not talk. Even if he does talk, it is muted and the background music carries the story forward...

After all this, the movie hall was filled with guys, all drunk Hasims and Habibs. 'Kya ba tum bhi aisaech ....' , and 'mere ko nakko' were just too loud there.

All in all , D was a Downer!!
