Pocket this rocket
The most difficult thing to do after making a successful cult movie, here, Chak De India - is to follow it up with an equally good movie. Does Rocket Singh - Salesman of the year (RSOTY) live up to the gigantic expectations it generated?
Rocket Singh - Salesman of the Year (RSOTY) is the story of fresh out-of-college guy, Harpreet Singh (Ranbir Kapoor) who has just scraped through. He does what millions of Indians with such grades do – join a sales team. Directorially, Shimit Amin is in top form; except towards the latter part of first-half when the pace of the film drops. The sequences where Harpreet goes about building Rocket Sales Corporation’s core team are well handled. The flaw in the film is in writing, partially, at times the screenplay seems to be too contrived. The climax too is rather lame. A stronger climax would have only culminated into a grand finale. Finally, the film belongs to Ranbir Kapoor. He is the heart and Soul of the film. Shazahn Padamsee, though cast in the romantic lead, has nothing to do; in fact, Gauhar Khan’s part is more developed. Production design is in sync with the film.
What rocks the movie:
Ranbir Kapoor. After Wake up Sid and APKGK, Ranbir once again proves that he is an actor to watch out for.Shimit Amin’s direction.Performances by the ensemble cast. What chucks the movie:
Writing. As already mentioned, apart from the climax, the romantic track between Ranbir and Shazahn Padamsee too is half-baked.
VERDICT:
RSOTY is a film that audiences will enjoy, only if they put Chak De India behind
