MOVIE REVIEW: ROCKY THE REBEL (2006)

Cast: Zayed Khan, Isha Sharvani and Minnisha Lamba
Director: Suresh Krrishna
Producer: Shyam Bajaj

Zayed Khan was one of the men in the Hindi blockbuster Dus which premiered a couple of years ago. Zayed has had the fortune to work with Shah Rukh Khan too in a movie called Main Hoon Na. Shah Rukh was the man whose film Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna, weirdly abbreviated as KANK rocked the UK box office recently.

And now Zayed gets to play big hero himself. The man is a rebel and wants to change the world like many of his more brawny Bollywood stars like Salman Khan. He finds love in his muse’s midriff (Isha Sharvani - the girl who swayed on a rope in Subash Ghai’s Kisna). But the girl is handed the short end of the rope as the rope as well as her role is cut short when she is killed.

The hero goes ballistic and wants to end everyone in sight including the big bad men who wrought havoc in his life in an effort to silence him.

He finds another girl – Bollywood needs its men to have one woman at least, unlike big bad Bond who sleeps with dozens.

He soon gets revenge as he sets about his mission of changing the world. Zayed Khan needs to eat well and gym well before trying to be superhero. He doesn’t have muscles like the Indian superman Krrish and needs to get more muscles. Agreed that the Indian subcontinent is now looking for change as was seen in earlier movies like the violently ending Rang De Basanti or the non violent Gandhian Lage Raho Munnabhai. This kid looks more like a munna or a boy. Even the villain ahs more muscles than him.

The women are wasted and like in other movies, they are soft girls and don’t sex up the screen too.

The film’s box office prospects thus look very rocky.
