Ugly Aur Pagli

how can they ruin such a beautiful loving and my all time favorite romantic comedy.Luckily i watched my sassy girl before the ugly ..."ugly and pagli" what a horrible movie they have made, this Indian film industry cant even copy properly horrible ....i watched this movie for 30 mins and i couldn't bear the insult of on e\e of my favourite movies so i had to stop[.....gyus if you really want to watch a great real life true romantic story go and watch "my sassy girl" the original Korean version with English subtitles ... not the Hollywood remake which is not as bad as bollywood ..

but still if you want to watch a masterpiece go and watch my sassy girl you will find in btjunkie torrent

At the cost of being called stupid let me confess, I had Hopes!!!.

Not very high hopes but I expected a movie along the lines of Pyaar Ke Side Effects, I even went prepared with the right company (girls), in fact i even hoped a bit more considering that Ranvir should be able to pull of the hen pecked boyfriend better than Rahul.

But alas it was not to be.

What i got was more of a confused film that went neither here nor there and left me with that Ugly feeling of being let down.

Clearly the weakest part of the movie is the script, Even if we are to believe that a bunch of 30 somethings are in college (better than the 70s i know but...), its hard to believe the madness thats being pushed across as real, THE MOVIE FAILS AT BOTH TRYING TO BE REAL AND LARGER THAN LIFE WITH BOTH TYPES OF SCENES HAVING THE HANGOVER OF THE OTHER.

THE MUSIC SAVE FOR "Mein Talli.." IS SO BAD THAT YOU ALMOST FORGET THE EVEN WORST PLACEMENT AND EDITING OF THE SONGS.

And whats with the sati savitri Mallika in her own words, we don't come to see her fully clothed, hell besides one song where she looked quite sexy (which was ruined because the songs were just so pathetic), she didn't even expose in goa for gods sake.

The only saving grace of the movie was the acting which was decent given the weak script, both Ranvir and Mallika did a decent job but thanks to the badly written script, many scenes looked like they were being hammed. And lets be frank Ranvir cant dance sala, so why is he doing it so much.

I suspect the movie has been copied from some movie because of the scenes were not the kind you normally see in Indian movies. In fact i would like to go on a limb and say it is some Asian movie, who are more atuned to obsessive love and such themes.

In all we have a poor movie that is best avoided, not suitable for any audience, in any mood.

-s script, songs, jokes, editing, songs, songs, editing, script.

+/-s acting or script which is to blamed??!!No exposure.

+s decent acting, A FEW FUNNY SCENES.

total 4/10 (i have factored in the fact that it fell below my expectations but don't want to exclude that and give it a five which makes it an OK movie which it definitely is not, i went with people who expected bad and the got it and those who had no idea they were seeing this and still found it bad so....)

What were the makers of this movie thinking. They thought they could give an Indian touch to the Korean original "Yeopgijeogin Geunyeo" which is a masterpiece by itself. Though I do not understand Korean, I watched the Korean version (with English subtitles) and was touched by every moment in it. A friend of mine suggested this movie and I thought it must be some kind of Korean comedy (with animated expressions). But the end result was totally different. It turned out to be a heart rendering, natural comedy with touching moments and a warm ending. Haven't seen the Hollywood version "My Sassy Girl" but the original is special and probably no remake could recreate the magic of the movie. Ugly aur Pagli is an utter failure in an attempt to do so. Instead the comedy is slapstick and makes no sense in the Indian context. Ranvir has been wasted here and Malika should stick to what she does best (which is not acting). Music has nothing to it, except for probably "Main Talli Ho Gayi". Overall the movie makes a mockery of the original and has nothing much to take back from it.

UnP ran high on anticipation levels since it comes from the same house who gave us Pyar Ke Side Effects. Honestly UnP borrows concepts/ ideas heavily from PKSE and in lots of respects it overkills – which is why the movie fails to work. The story/ screenplay/ script lack the punch.

Ranvir Shorey:: Gives his usual best.

Mallika Sherwat:: Was a misfit IMO. Or probably her character should have been toned down.

Zeenat Aman:: Good to see her after a long time.

Songs are catchy and good.

The climax is straight out of Mills & Boons (read that "cheesy").

'Ugly Aur Pagli' shamelessly rips off one of my favourite romantic comedies 'Yeopgijeogin Geunyeo' a.k.a. 'My Sassy Girl'. Not only is the plot hackneyed (and severely underdeveloped), the beauty, subtlety, poetry, sincerity and heart is replaced by toilet humour, non-funny jokes (yes, even the translated dialogues sound ridiculous), loudness, and mild vulgarity. These pathetic makers obviously have no respect for the original. The songs are visualized like those sleazy MTV music videos popping out of nowhere. Music director Anu Malik makes a come back when he was better off in 'exile'. His ghastly score is much worse than his pathetic voice. Ranvir Shorey hams his way through the film. I don't understand why a talented actor like him, who delivered one of the year's finest performances in 'Mithya' chose to be a part of this piece of trash. Mallika Sherawat does not convince at all. Nor does anyone else in the movie. Zeenat Aman's cameo is laughable which is quite a pity as one would have expected something better since we don't get to see her enough these days. This is one movie that should and deserves to be avoided at all costs. Trust me, you're better off watching almost anything else.
