It’s Bollywood time again, and I am once again thankful that
I am stepping on familiar ground with this one. This time around, it’s with one
of the most recognisable Indian actors out there: Shah Rukh Khan. Now, that
term doesn’t have as much worth to me as it probably should, but that’s only
because I’m still on the learning path when it comes to understanding Bollywood
cinema. It took me two decades to understand Hollywood’s antics; chances are I
have a while to go yet. I’ve already covered two of Khan’s more recent films on
this blog before, with the decent if insubstantial Happy New Year and the
phenomenally misguided Dilwale, and I’m far from an aficionado for his work but
I definitely give the man credit where it’s due; even in Dilwale, the guy still
managed to deliver. So, with that in mind, let’s take a look at his latest
offering.
