    hi everyone from Turkey :)

    I really like the character of Frangi. Even though he is a trickster, as Azaad say, Frangi is actually on a quest so independence and freedom consist of breathing for him. Is that really so? Katrinan's role as a dancer was a good decision because even if she can dance very nicely but her acting performance is not enough yet. After performance of Fatima in DANGAL, I watched her for the second time with this film and I liked her again(also very similar to katrina). And Amitabh Bachchan, living legend of India has performed well in this film with Aamir. In short, I think the film was beautiful.

    Beautiful film.

    I usually never miss an Aamir Khan movie but this time I did due to health issues and time constraints. But I did manage to watch this movie on DVD and I regret not watching it on big screen. Pay no heed to negative reviews as plenty of them are baseless and they have not watched the movie at all.

    No, its not like Pirates at all. It may look like coz of the look and feel of the set. But thats the only similarity. I had mixed feelings bcoz of so many negative reviews when I started to watch the movie and just 5 minutes into the movie, I was in complete awe of it. Without giving much on the lines of story and screenplay, I would like to end here by giving this masterpiece an 8 out of 10 for such a visual treat.

    Why all the bad reviews?

    Just got through watching it, been waiting avidly for a copy of it, and well worth the wait I thought. Yes it is a bit POTC-ish, but it was still swashbuckling fun in its own way. They seemed to end it as though they may make a sequel, I hope they do, because I really enjoyed this.

    Nice and good movie Amer Khan and Amitab always come with a new idea . This movie is very different from Indian music movies and always the first try must have some mistakes but still very good and nice movie.

    Its all about fabulous performance of mr. Amir khan

    If u want to see an amazing Amir khan again just see the movie. Everything else is just r u bb i s h. And amir seems so powerful and energetic in his 50s same as he was in his 30s. Hats of to u man.
