Mela



The much expected "Mela" in which the thinking star Aamir Khan and thinking whizkid director Dharmesh Darshan have combined to deliver, another hit. It is no match for "Raja Hindusthani" which had derived inspiration from the sweet melodies of sixties like "Jab Jab Phool Khile". "Mela" has shades of "Caravan" and "Sholay" in it, and by any standards the originals were much better and more appealing than this highly hyped film. "Mela" was touted as Aamir Khan's Millennium film which would bring back the viewers into theatres and give some solace to the troubled Hindi film Industry which is reeling under big flops. But "Mela" ends up as another rank, badly made commercial film and certainly is not a tonic for the ailing Hindi film Industry


Agreed, Aamir Khan has come out with a spirited performance, but this factor does not take the film to any great heights. There is Twinkle Khanna, whose dialogue delivery is atrocious and whose trendy looks despite in a village girl's role looks mismatched. Even the Director has faltered in giving lengthy monologue dialogues to Twinkle fully knowing that she is yet to prove, while a good actor Aamir Khan comes out good in his one liners. Aamir's timing in the comic sequences are the saving grace. New find Faisal Khan (Aamir Khan's brother) is a total failure.

He looks like being totally out of place. Tinu Verma as the threatening terrorist is passable. There is nothing much to add about others. Johnny Lever is becoming too repetitive. Anu Malik's music is good and the two racy numbers 'Dhadkan mein tum' and Tujhe rab ne banaya' are the


saving grace of the entire film.

Dharmesh Dharshan who proved his credentials in "Raja Hindusthani" utterly fails in his latest attempt, at least to make a film worth-watching. Aamir Khan should realise that however best he acts, a film can sustain only if it has a good story.
