st November 2008
The much awaited movie of the year, with Salman and Katrina paired opposite each other, has finally hit the theaters and if you believe us, Salman can surely be termed as the 'Yuvvraaj' (prince). He is one actor that you should really look forward to watching in the movie. He has played the part of a super brat with complete conviction and definitely manages to impress.
Katrina is another actor that you should look forward to. She manages to hold her own in a bevy of established actors, like Anil, Salman and Boman. As for the most important part, the chemistry between Salman and Katrina, we wish we could be witness to more. The couple sizzled on-screen, though for a very short duration. Talking about other performances, Anil Kapoor was excellent in the role of an autistic, while Boman Irani was, as usual, his brilliant self.
We hope Zayed Khan could match up to others, though he is not too bad. Subhash Ghai had a good concept behind the movie and even its execution was very good. However, the movie was not completely faultless. One of the loopholes was the faulty script. Even the end was quite predictable. Still, the cinematography was excellent and the music, by A.R. Rahman, simply superb. All in all, 'Yuvvraaj' is a movie worth the money spent on multiplex tickets!
