Dil Bole Hadippa!

Can you believe I saw this movie!
Throughout the movie I kept saying to myself, why do you think I'm watching this movie. Why in the world am I sitting put. And the answer. Just to write a review..that's the only reason I could think of!

Its about a cricket expert Rani (Veera). Just because she is a girl she cannot play in the men's team and cannot compete with the best of the best. So, she plays disguised as a man. Fundamental question is, how is it ever possible for a gal to dress as a guy and not be made out. Anyway, considering bollywood does not stress too much on the right and wrong we move ahead. Now comes an NRI Shahid Kapur(Rohan) who does not really belive in his 'jhappiyon sa desh' and Veera shows him how our country is so beautiful. Rohan then falls head over heels in love with Rani. Now obviously she does not tell him that it is her who is playing in Rohan's team.
Now she plays very well and throughout her love Rohan does not realise that the guy playing is not Veer but Veera. Everything is going good when during the final match Rohan finds out that there is no Veer. Now his heart is broken (I wonder why?) and he tells her that women and visitors are not allowed in the men's chaning room. Okay, I would have said go and win the match yourself. But here is our bharatiya naari who is in tears now. She can see her dream fall apart. Let me ask a question here. How is her dream of being known as a famous cricketer going to be fulfilled if she is going to play guised as a man (which no one can unearth) ? Anyway, so then finally Rohan has no option but to call back his strong player because he is going to lose otherwise. Now put in the melodrama and dialogues such as 'Tumne mera istamaal kiya team mein aane ke liye, ab mein tumhara istamaal karunga jeetne ke liye".
Then the tension of who's going to win, how are they going to pull it through. But then they win, obviously. And then comes a speech which suddenly enlightens people and they accept that she had no other option but to play guised as a man.
The story is ridiculous. But if you hear and watch the songs, you'll agree with me that the story is much better! The direction I will not say was bad but there was no story. Rani's acting skills are wasted. Shahid's charm is wasted too. Sherlyn Chopra was maybe happy with her 'show your skin' even if there is no character etched for you in the film.
All in all a bad bad movie. Please don't bother!
