RGV Ke Chak De India

SRK has the look and the attitude of a larger than life movie star. He defines “Star Wattage”. That is why only he could have done the Don remake. Most people agree that the reason why the old Don lent itself to a remake (in the first place) is that the “Star Wattage” was missing in the old one. A Doodhwalah Bhaiya cannot be a Don (just not possible, hell has to freeze over first). In the old Don, someone with star wattage was missing and hence when that was added, a sort of average movie (i.e. the old Don) turned into a much appreciated super hit blockbuster (a fact confirmed by approx INR 500 Mil box-office in India).

One can make an argument that SRK via Don and KBC 3 in essence has made it clear that whatever Big B can do well, he can do better. These two events are a major set back for the Bachchanista who are hell bent to re-write history and make Big B look legendary or atleast relevant. For the Bachchanistas, Don and KBC 3 is a tight slap across Big B’s worn down face. Consequently Big B now wants to get even. He has teamed up with RGV and has announced a re-make of SRK’s CDI with himself as Kabir Khan. The re-make will be called RGV Ke Chak De India.

Since no RGV and Big B combo can be without weird make over, Big B in RGV Ke CDI will be dressed like a street urchin recovering from cancer (RGV’s way to double up on the sympathy factor). Not just any cancer, but bum cancer (similar to breast cancer, but mainly suffered by Bachchalan men). So imagine if you will, Big B in street urchins clothes, a bandanna saying Kabir Khan on his head, a tattered kurta, and a hole ridden lungi , with one butt cheek unusually swollen and convex and the other butt cheek eroded by cancer (and therefore concave), singing Maula Mere Lele Meri Jaan. Imagine him doing those delicate hip movements that he did in JBJ (the yeast infection dance) but this time imagine him doing that in a hole ridden lungi with one convex butt cheek and one concave butt cheek. RGV is praying that the Bachchanistas will watch with tears in their eyes, sobbing loudly and pulling their hair out every time Big B yells out Maula Mere Lele Meri Jaan.

But just like SRK brought his own personality to Don & KBC 3, Big B will also bring his own personality to RGV Ke CDI. Allow me to explain, for a moment consider that Zip Down/ Zip Up scene with Bindya Naik . SRK in CDI had the right amount of “You must be fuc..ng kidding” look on his face in that scene. With his firm expressions SRK says, “You insult me but you insult yourself more”. Now in RGV Ke CDI the expression on a distracted Big B’s face, given his background, would scream, Malaeewalah Doodh (Milk with Cream). Although some have argued that such a modification would be totally inappropriate for the scene or the character or the movie, RGV claims that by injecting a lecherous spark into Big B’s eyes, he is hoping to prove to the Bachchanistas that even at 75 years age, Big B has got it in him. In fact RGV is so sure of his vision that he has altered the lyrics to Maula Mere Lele Meri Jaan too. In RGV’Ke CDI, after the Zip Down/Zip Up scene, every time Big B and Bindya Naik are in the same frame, Big B will bite his lips, and in the background will play, Maula Mere Lele Meri Jaan Par Dede Mujhe Bindya Naik Ke Doodoo.

So Ladies and Gentlemen, be on an alert, RGV Ke CDI is coming soon to a theater near you.

  4. now wll people say that BIG B IS AFRAID OF SRK

    Y HE IS ACTING IN MOVIE WHICH IS ALREADY A BLOCKBUSTER OF SRK

    BIG B IS THE MOST SELFISH , ARROGANT , MEAN ETC……PERSON OF THIS WORLD

  5. this is wrong to say BIG B is a superstar.The correct one would be BIG B was a superstar.

  6. Big B was a superstar 25 years ago. In his 40 years career, he remain superstar for maximum 15 years, infact for 10 years. And in the remaining 25-30 years, he gave the biggest flops of the history of bollywood. As for his acting abilities, he is just an average actor at maximum, and thats the real truth.

    great thoughts..atleast its sensible
    but Big B madea remake of one of its own film. He played gabbar but not even at a single point he tried to imitate amjad and before the release and after the release he maintained that whateveramjad did in sholey was legendary and he could not match that………this modesty makes a difference
    let me tell u something….when SRK entered bollywodd many and almost all big B fans were his supporter but within few years especially when SRK started maligning others…started buying juries his fans got divided and till then AB was also back…..so its not that i don’t respect SRK…i do….as an actor he is good but not legendary….he is crowd puller..thats true…but then i have also seen the acting skills and crowd pulling strenghths of AB….thats why i hate comparisons when i know SRK is number two….
    and i don’t start anything from my side…..i only write when i see someone talking crap or maligning AB for no reasons….
    RGV ki aag was flop but still Ab was gud in that if not his usual best. but stillhe is very versatile and energetic….moreover flops and hits are not going to affect his career so he is not bothered…but for SRK its important bcoz he has not yet eneterd his second innings……so keep ur fingers crossed

  10. i just logged to get the review of om shanti om but saw u people in action as srk v/s bachchan battle so thought to drop in a word. no actor can be better than other the all perceive a character in their own way give it their own touch. till date i hav never seen an actor who is able to leave his own personality aside just performes the character. srk is younger and definitely as a man works gets more polished so ab is more polished. but truly speaking amitabh is also not good enough he carries himself into each act just like srk. the flexibility of getting mould into the character is seen in very few actors like johnny depp (watch pirates , secret window , chocolat, charlie), naseeruddin shah (aaakrosh, iqbal,raju ban gaya gentleman), pankaj kapur (blue umbrella, maqbool, dharm),matteiu kassovitz (amelie).
    ab and srk are stars the result to peoples love aand media love and definitely power relations.

  11. Agree PArtly Falcon

    Bt IN India Stars use to Act differently - Bt now its different

  12. sorry falcon
    when everything is good around an actor then even decent actor looks great and that is the case with many hollywood actors. In indian context actors carry the burden to play their chararcter effieciently and compensate for the shortcomings in other departments……..its not that they cannot get in to character but its like people don’t want them that way…….most of the good and sensible movies are rejected by indian audience. we can’t blame indian actors….even they are bound by these limitations
