Films, apart from selling dreams - something that we all have heard from Karan Johar essentially - also promote tourism. Now, if by any chance you have applied for a US visa, and the answer is awaited or you dream of going to the place one day is pending, buy Hero Naam Yaad Rakhi’s movie ticket; it promises ample sight-seeing options. Please don’t forget, the film is called Hero-Naam Yaad Rakhi. The sad part is this is the only thing that you come back after watching it, nothing else. Directed by Baljit Singh Deo, a known cinematographer, this time he has gone with Karan Johar meets the Abaas Mastaan way! The opulence, the dress parade of Johar and the mystery, which is finally revealed towards the fag end! We are glad that it was revealed before the film ended. Alright, the film starts on some note, something happens, some songs, some excellent dresses…but, we are still trying to figure this ‘some’. Before you try to get a hang, the screen glares with intermission. Now, after the break, something happens, some new dresses to be seen, new sights, and yes an addition, a mystery! While we still can’t figure this some, we already have detected the mystery (Bournvita se dimaag ka vikas). The last 15 minutes of the movie throw in interesting moments. Forget about dialogues, after all its only Jimmy talking; the actress, Surveen has to laugh most of the time. Baljit Deo could have created an impact had he tried to make sense of some things. Coming to the star cast - Jimmy Sheirgill is sporting a chic wardrobe and he definitely acts well. If only, he would have been given more leg space to act, after all he is a hero - hope you remember the name. Surveen Chawla, once she is out of her puckish grin, her giggles, throaty laughter, coming and going accent, uber cool dresses… brings the curtains down on the plot. C’mon, she did act - repeat the Hate Story vengeance. As for Mukul Dev and Shivendra Mahal, why shroud the characters in mystery when there is nothing to it. The songs of the film are nice, and whatever score the film gets is because of Jimmy Sheirgill and the exotic locales, since the visa approval is awaited. Till then Hero- Naam Yaad Rakhi!
