Saif Ali Khan is back and how!
One look at the promo of Happy Ending and it is crystal clear that Saif has decided to give back to the audience what they truly expect out of him. That cool urban humor, that nonchalant persona, that expression of exasperation that only he can give, that idea of making fun of himself, that cool-and-relaxed interaction with his duplicate (or is it his alter ego?) which reminds one of the fizzy drink that he endorses – everything just works perfectly. One almost expects him to call for a party and offer a bag of potato chips!
This was pretty much on the cards as well, especially after Cocktail, which had demonstrated all over again that he is the man to go to – if the stage is urbane, the women are hot and the age is no bar.
No wonder, he doesn’t mind admitting he is not ‘that young’, even if he is ‘young at heart’.
Yes Saif, that’s exactly the kind of honesty that has worked for you during last couple of decades. What impresses all the more is even though this is the coming together of Dinesh Vijan and Eros, he hasn’t let the focus be just on himself. Instead, he has allowed Govinda – who seems to be enjoying his time in front of the camera after a really long time – to hog the limelight at more than just a couple of places.
Everyone just seems to be having a lot of fun, whether it is Saif, Govinda or Ileana D’Cruz, who is merrily smiling away to many a joke that are being cracked at her expense.
We like the camaraderie so far. And we do hope that director duo Raj-DK make sure that audience enjoys the entire experience in a major way once the film arrives this November.
We are waiting!
