Lele (Lobo's sidekick) says this, no? Loved his performance. And Shiv Subrahmanyam was just about perfect.Quote:

I suppose many of you would have already read this. A lone voice of dissent is always welcome, but I'm puzzled by some of his criticisms. For instance, this excerpt. I wonder if he even got the joke, or is it that he didn't think it was funny?

There are several problems with Kaminey. First, it is made in the format of a commercial film with all its stereotypical elements -- hero, heroine, villains, songs, romance and fights. The curiosity was how Bhardwaj would use the clichés of the regular film and infuse new meaning into them.
The fact is that Bhardwaj makes a mess of it. The hero and heroine dance and sing in an AIDS-awareness promotion procession. In the next scene they decide on their marriage based on an impending pregnancy.
Attention deficit. Her entry(& the newsbreak) was meant to be ironic. Didn't think much of the choreography (by Raju Sundaram?), I thought the song was a nice way to introduce Guddu, and AIDS awareness is clever way to infuse commercial values.Quote:

Yeah that was the baffling part. That's the line that convinces you not to take this guy seriously.
That was instantly funny. And the next scene when he struggles and finally says:
Home Science :rotfl:
I agree, kid-glove, that the wordplay was quite overdrawn at times (like the "you two" line which was very cheesy), a bit underwhelming coming from Vishal Bhardwaj who's such a crackling dialogue-writer. But overall, I thought the dialogue was indeed one of the strong points of the film.Quote:
