Waqt: The Race Against Time

Usually I am very hesitant to watch old Bollywood movies cause they are generally hyped up solely by nostalgia so once I was recommended I was very sceptical and it didn't started good typical cheesy stuff but man as the movie goes on apart from the songs everything kept on improving brilliant cast especially Amitabh he proves why he is the star that he is. This movie is damn emotional really it almost made me cry at the end despite you knowing what's coming all along credit really goes to the actors (Priyanka Chopra did overact a bit) and the writting it is witty,based on chance but yeah you will feel emotions that's for sure. Not everything is good you have to overlook many things such as sudden character changes,disregard to medical science but i mean it's a Bollywood movie from 2004

FAVOURITE CHARACTER :: Amitabh bachan FAVOURITE MOMENT :: Akshay coming back home and by mistake hugging his father.

Ishwar (Amitabh Bachchan) and his wife Sumitra (Shefali Shah) run a toy factory that is successful enough for Iswar to spoil their son Aditya (Akshay Kumar) in every way. Aditya has no interest in the factory, or in taking responsibility for his life. He is satisfied to live off his parents' hard work and talk about becoming an actor. He elopes with his girlfriend, Pooja (Priyanka Chopra), expecting his father to support them. When illness strikes Ishwar, he makes the hard decision to throw Aditya out of the house to force him to become responsible and dependable.

This drama had the potential to be a moving and emotional film, but fell short. Everything about it, excepting the acting of the four principles, was average or below. Bachchan and Shah were especially good in their roles, while Kumar and Chopra gave their usual level of performance. Solid acting alone cannot improve a mediocre movie, though, so the end result was underwhelming.

Amitabh once again delivers a power-packed performance! He never fails to impress me and just gets better with each film. Akshay, who is also delivering hit after hit, does a terrific job. I liked the combination of Amitabh and Akshay much more in this film than in Ek Rishtaa. The two talented actors created magic on the screen while delivering their dialogues straight from the heart. The story sinks deep into your heart making this film a real tearjerker. On the other hand, the fantastic duo of Boman Irani and Rajpal Yadav create sidesplitting comedy! Shefali Shah also gives a brilliant performance. Despite being so much younger, she did full justice to her role as Amitabh's wife. Priyanka didn't have much of a role, and she doesn't suit the role of the stereotypical Indian housewife. The only thing that bugged me about this movie is how Priyanka was treated. For crying out loud, a pregnant woman shouldn't starve!

This is the first Bollywood film that I rated on IMDb I don't know what to say this is one of the best Bollywood film that I ever saw at the first,I was spectacle when I saw the title I mean what? is this a time travel film science fiction crap.But,this film is nothing to do with that this film is a story about the love of father to his son this film make me cry I really like the main actor he really give us what a superb acting performance I don't want to spoil anything watch this movie yourself I give it 10/10 5 star movie a brilliant family movie.

Simply great movie no doubt about it. Great story and superb performances, be it Amitabh, Akshay, Shefali, Priyanka, Boman or Rajpal. Hindi film industry is going shameless with Mallika and Co, this movie is totally vulgarity free and therefore bound to fail in vulgarity addicted our Indian society. But the message and concept this movie carries are absolutely superb. Anu Malik(boring copy-cat) could have been avoided and Ismail Darbar or Himmesh Reshmmiya could have been used as musician. I think Vipul Shah should have given little bit Gujarati touch particularly in music also. Anu Malik is worst musician around and he thinks himself popstar but this is not the movie where is presence was required-He looks only good with Govinda style songs. I felt some nice serious music with couple of good Ghazals or sad songs could have made this movie more memorable.
