Jannat

We watched this movie when it was released on  a nearby hall. I get to remember this movie(shit) just because i watched "End of Days" (wo bhi Hindi me) yesternight. 
I always thought Charli's Angels was the worst i had ever seen but End of Days belongs to league of its own. this is once in long while kind of thing. this kind of stuff demands spacial and natural talent. You can't cook this in the kitchen. thankfully hindi Dubbing makes things a little more comical. so i watched it all. 
Jannat is a funny movie. There is a superstitious fellow(who is deliberately characterized somewhat dumb so that guys can identify with it..lol). He breaks a glass in a shopping mall where he get to see his 'queen'. then in one song he buys a Honda Accord, they go to shopping malls and the hell they just keep buying clothes. then they move to republican of SA where he offers paki captain Rolex 'Ghadiyan'(watches). he specially mentions Rolex Ghadiyan just in case if the audience miss what is Rolex. Given the mindset, Rolex could be manufacturers of refrigerators or microwaves. Then his heart changes again and they become poor family. means they have a smaller swimming pool, smaller penthouse, only designer furniture. The 'queen' who sings in strip club(no stripping only club). once she gets angry and breaks all crockery which i guess should be insured..lol.. then our guy gets bored of his small pool and 29" TV, and decides to book again(match fixing). he is dumb so he cann't have moral values. interesting explanation. bure kaam ka bura nateeza.. so he dies as much sarcastically. 
now queen is again poor. she returns to India. Without claiming insurance of our King. Now she is poor so she goes shopping in big baazar only.  
conclusion- a movie becomes a hit if the audience identifies with it. no matter what.
