Selfiee

Watching Selfiee on Feb 25, I felt similar vibes I did on June 20, 2012, watching the third movie at the theatre on the same day after Emraan Hashmi's Shanghai and Akshay Kumar's Rowdy Rathore.

Like Ferrari ki Sawaari, the footfalls were weak. However, at times it felt I was watching a newer version of Ferrari ki Sawaari.

Honestly, Selfiee has a lot to teach. It doesn't look like a giant story, the script has issues, but makes sure we get entertained frequently and learn something from it. A message, lot bigger than the advertisement of Akshay Kumar about Lal Bahadur Shastri marg.

Eemran Hashmi was okay, no complaints. Akshay could have done better with the aura and charm he has created in the last few decades. As for Akshay, he did pick a wonderful film to, especially, send out a message to the youngsters about driving. How a moment of unawareness can cost lives. Also, We must drive safely.

Watching the movie, I remember the quote : Better be Mr. Late, than Late Mr...

If you're late, you're already late. Saving 2 to 4 minutes of your time to arrive at a location even though you're already late won't make any difference, however, it might, in case, for someone else.

I have not watched the original first of all.

But treating it as a fresh movie, it delivers quite well. Story, screenplay is good with nice pace of movie.

Akhsay and Emran both are impressive in their roles. Role of Emran was more expressive kind of and role Akshay Sir was not that much expressive and he is doing so well since ages. His walk, eyes, body language says all about what he is feeling like in the scene Background is also fine. Abhimanyu Singh was a surprise, I was not aware that he is also there. That too in a comic role. But I like his expression and comic timing. Vimla tiwari played by Meghana Malik is also brings smile when comes.

For movie name ,better Driving license to Selfiee. I would like share a comment.. It was good scene during public protest and akshay came for help as humanity. But in this scene taught ( Years will change but Human will never change by their warm need a just a shot of pic/ Video). They will do as per day to day, week to week and year to year. That's why it's a kalyug ....I hope the public will realized as a social animal. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty." - Mahatma Gandhi before blaming, to know the matter first then you take a decision.

First half of Selfiee was absolutely fantastic!!! That scene with Akshay comes into the RTO office and gets angry at Emraan and he just stands there with tears in his eyes without saying a single word, that scene was just amazing!!!!

Second half of Selfiee was decent but could have been way better, the screenplay and direction messed it up totally!! But it's Emraan Hashmi that takes the second half on his shoulders, Akshay did well in the first half while in the second half he was just about fine.

Mrunal Thakur in the song Kudiye Ni Teri, ahhhh she looked so sexy, hot and sensuously seductive!!! She should have been the female lead for Akshay instead of Diana Penty!

Nushrratt as the wife of Emraan was decent. She could have had more scenes but she did her best!

Only two songs from the movie are good! The rest are just a part of the film in background.

I think it's high time for Akshay to stop doing remakes and stop doing so many films in a single year! It's just too much.

Surprisingly the film meets your expectations. After a long time, we have a good family entertainer teaching us a few life lessons keeping the entertainment quotient intact.

All actors have done a fantastic job as per their given roles. Special mention to Abhimanyu Singh, Meghna Malik and the actor playing the producers' role. Akshay Kumar plays himself as per the requirement and shines brilliantly in the emotional moments as well. Emran Hashmi has given a subtle performance as a father wanting to be a hero in front of his son.

BGM is decent as well as the songs. Direction has been done in a very efficient way. Screenplay keeps you hooked almost throughout the runtime.

Go and enjoy with your family.
