- Quotes
Mahi Arora: You media people should write film scripts. What stories you make to bring out your personal emnity. "Heroine took a car; a businessman gifted her", "She bought a diamond; she got engaged", "She went to the hospital; she got an abortion", "She went to Elle; she underwent plastic surgery" and if she goes to Dubai, a rate card gets made of hers. You're the best in making stories.

Featured review
So much for all the hype and anticipation surrounding "heroine". The movie is basically a collection of some of the most discussed and hyped "kisse" from our bollywood. in Bhandarkar's pitch to combine all these incidents (which supposedly aim to shock the audience, however fail miserably!), he has completely lost the plot. There is no specific story line which is the biggest drawback.
Some of the incidents, like the one about mahi tries adopting a kid, just feels absolutely disconnected from the movie, it actually made me think wat a waste of such a good actress.
Also the film lacks any major/good actors, actors like sanjay suri, mugdha godse and some other newbies just aren't convincing and fail to make any impact. I longed for some good actors to match up with the amazing kareena but disappointment again.
Randeep Hooda plays his part perfectly however he doesn't have a very important role in the movie. Arjun Rampal! I don't know why does he still get movies, he seems expressionless as usual.
Kareena is great as always with her perfect portrayal of a beautiful, insecure, short tempered actress. But there is an awful lot of crying to her share and after a point it loses its impact. the item song is a treat to the eye, the number is catchy too.
All in all the movie doesn't do justice to the amazing acting prowess of kareena and pathetically fails to unfold any story behind stardom. Watch if you are a kareena fan or if you have a free ticket! anyways, we would see it on the TV soon ;)
