Jai Ho (2014)

I'll tell you why so serious

A waste of 90 minutes of my life

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

This movie is nothing but a big ''B'' and a ''S'' all the way.B...s..t all the way.Bad direction and acting all the way.The reason there is 1 star is because of the message and a bit Salman's acting,say 50/50 and 9 stars has to go down for crap.Tabu and supporting characters were crap over acting everywhere.Salman should be more responsible and make good movies that would be looked up by the world,cut this crap,please,I thought we have moved on from the past.It's a really painful watch especially being a huge cinema fan,got bad headaches all the way through.Story wise,it was not bad,execution was utter terrible,music was bad.This movie is an insult to Bollywood and Indian cinema on the whole.

Please watch Jai Ho (जय हो) only if you are a die-hard fan of Salman Khan. Otherwise, this movie is a great disappointment as far as the plot of the movie, direction, story, screenplay are concerned. It is a fact that Salman has been a great mass puller with his Dabbang / Bodyguard / Wanted moves, but he may probably not be able to repeat his success. Salman Khan is playing the role of an ex-army officer, Jai Agnihotri. He wants to create a better nation. The effort was to convey that even an ordinary single human being can be a change catalyst and create a national stir for positive change. But the whole message gets diluted with the way it has been handled. I wish, at least a particular social issue could have been focused upon. There were lot of instances of Salman being a good Samaritan, but it seemed too superficial, it is tough to identify with the character. It lacked the flavor of country's present political scenario. We have seen enough of Salman's one-man action sequences which are there in this as well, added with Salman's bites or roars. Riya Agnihotri (Salman's Sister played by Tabu) is unconditional in her love towards her brother and has got good amount of screen time. It is always a pleasure to watch Tabu perform, but she doesn't have to do much. Daisy Shah has definitely given some good dance moments, and also, she has screen presence, but her role has not been sketched out properly. And there are a list of actors (get breathless): Nadira Babbar, Danny Denzongpa, Daisy Shah, Sana Khan, Mahesh Manjrekar, Aditya Pancholi, Mohnish Behl, Mukul Dev, Ashmit Patel, Yash Tonk, Nauheed Cyrusi, Bruna Abdullah, Genelia, Vikas Bhalla, Sunil Shetty, Santosh Shukla, Pulkit Samrat and many more They come and go without actually being able to make a remarkable impact upon the audience. Too many characters are introduced. Background score by Sandeep Shirodkar is good. 'Tere Naina maar hi daalenge' is also good. Other songs by Sajid-Wajid are average. Sets during the dance sequences are huge and presentable.Is this going to be a 'Jai Ho' at box office ?

Watch this movie for the comedy only or to be watched strictly by Salman Khan's fan only.Plot is too simple and the message projected by the movie is too trivial.This movie tries to unleash social problem but founders due to extra family drama,melodrama and excessive action sequence where Salman is so so.First part of movie is very boring except some comedy by Naman Jain.I desperately had to wait for next half to have something to watch but trust me the MLM social helping hand chain projected without any solid background.The concept though was good but did not convinced by the movie properly.It will be wrong to compare it with Ghatak but better to watch Ghatak again then to watch this movie.This is not even one time watch movie.

I was not impressed with movies of SK, but this was genuinely made from heart- its a typical SK movie... but with an heart at its place... these movies should be encouraged because we are getting away from society... to see Khopadi from Nukaad was a pleasure... The movie thought me that life is not about entertainment.. its about sharing good things.. Watch the movie for some real good performances. the direction is mediocre but the message is clear. Human touch in India is important. A must watch movie. Movie which makes sense. it has writers mark on itwatch it to believe it
