Rock On!!!

After uncountable no-brainers shelled out like peanuts, ROCK ON!! comes as a pleasant surprise. The story is good, screenplay is tight, dialogs spot on, and translated on screen to perfection by the cast.


Farhan Akhtar acts like he has been doing this for years. Arjun Rampal is a rockstar. Purab and Prachi have done a pretty decent job in the limited screentime they got. There are times in the second half where the story seems to be losing it's grip, but it is overshadowed by the background score. The music is excellent. Lyrics have succeeded to hit the spot. Sung extraordinarily by Farhan Akhtar, the score is the best I have heard in a long time. I do like to add though that Purab jumps a lot while playing drums. Looks like somebody is playing him.

If you think you are too cool for Bollywood, think again.
