I am not a K-Pop fan but this film amazed me with its songs especially the final song by Saja boys. Watched it just because my 4 year old daughter wanted to watch this but it hooked me right away. Groovy songs, great voice acting, beautiful characters. I think the sequels will be more polished in terms of visuals. You don't really mind if the story and songs are nice. Sony created a gem with combination of Japanese anime and Korean pop. Solid 8 out of 10 for me. Loved it.

Paid Rs 100, watched it on YouTube. Fair pricing I give this to Aamir Khan he is not a loot but I read it in Indian express that the film costed $ 14-15 million i.e Rs 122 to 133 Crores my question is who took the money ? I know Aamir doesn't take upfront fees and recent hit Saiyaara was made on a budget of Rs 50 Cr so where did the money go ? You can only justify the budget if they spent like Rs 100 crores on marketing which is absurd.

Ok moving on to the review frankly speaking the movie felt like a lazy attempt considering Aamir Khans standards. It's clear Aamir is not good at comedy he is very good at serious and emotional scenes but comedy is not his forte he is always the same old Ranchoddas chanchad of 3 idiots. I felt this movie is a missed opportunity. It could have been the feel good version of Dangal. I know sports was not the main theme but considering how important it was to the plot a little effort on show casing good sport was important. There was absolutely no effort in that field at all. The specially abled kids were amazing each having unique character and charisma. The subplots i.e Genelia and Aamir story didn't have any charm or fun element it felt like a drag. This movie could have been shorter by 30 minutes easily. The script is not tight and crisp. Comedy scenes were not well written there were hits and misses. I think the climax was wonderful which gave a very good message. It was emotionally satisfying. They nailed the ending which rarely happens in Bollywood. Overall it's a one time watch. Even with less expectations this film fails to keep you engaged. 7/10 for me.

To all the haters yes it's a bit long, yes it has few extra one liners that are just ok, yes the pace dips for few seconds here and there but boy oh boy what a ride it was. It was such an breathtaking ride that even the cliffhanger ending did not spoil my mood. When the ending happened it just felt right it needed to stop to take a breath to reflect.

How did you plan for this I mean you have to give it to the creators such an incredible talent they are such imagination and then bringing it on to the screen marvellous. How do you beat this, I am worried now whether the next part can match up. They just elevened up in every department. The music always kept me in its verse, The animation was top notch I just can't stop raving about it.

I just watched it on Netflix in a 55 inch TV, I can't imagine the experience in theatres must be out of this world. Truly a marvel of a movie. Must get an Oscar highly recommended.
