Student Of The Year- Movie Review

By Shoby

3 stars out of 5

Direction: Karan Johar

Starring: Siddharth Malhotra, Varun Dhawan and Aliya Bhaat

Music: Vishal-Shekar

Lyrics: Anvita Dut

Watching a KJo movie has always been a very exciting event. Expect nothing but a lot of crackers and fireworks in the form of music, masty, dance, emotions, melodrama, tears, smiles and on top of all this, a bag full of celebrities and biggies of b town. Same is what U can find in his latest directorial venture Student of the year, except a lot of big names. Well one big QUESTION, can U expect a KJo movie without Shahrukh Khan. Honestly speaking I can NOT. And it came to me as a big surprise, when SOTY was launched earlier without having the name of SRK attached to it as an actor, although produced by SRK's Red Chilies Entertainment and Dharma Productions.

If it’s a KJo movie, it bounds to be one of the hottest selling item of the year. Off course it was among the most anticipated and much awaited flick of the year and box office results have depicted the same. Honestly, to me, My Name is Khan was his best attempt till date and yes, even after watching SOTY, I still reckon MNIK is his best directorial venture. But what about the SOTY? Let’s check, does Karan chose the right path and made a right move after so convincing MNIK.

My honest advice, do NOT expect something out of this world or path breaking cinema here. It is an out and out entertainer. Two best friends converting into foes and then battling out to claim the title of Student of the year. A rivalry to get one girl, the love of their life. And a lot of dance, masty, music and colors blended somewhere in between.

On the whole, SOTY is a very calculated risk. Risk, as it is the launching pad for not one or two but three brand new people and that too as a lead. Sidharth, Varun and Aliya. New generation of some of already set bollywood's biggies. And I called it a "calculated" one, as Karan has put up a tremendous effort to bring the kind of cinema, that people love to watch now a days. SOTY depends all on the shoulders of Karan and only Karan.

This movie is a treat for all those who love movies based on high schools/colleges and those who likes to see coming of age cinema. It has a a reasonable sound track, comprising of a couple of chartbusters. Radha and Disco Deewane have all the energy to make your feet groove, while Ishq Wala Love (although no great lyrics) can find someone as a fan in the audience. Special appearances are must in a KJo movie and SOTY is no different. you will get to see super talented Kajol and Boman Irani along with ace choreographers Farah Khan and Vaibhavi Merchant in some very short cameos.

Although to me, it was a rather forgettable script, with nothing so exceptional but what really put the mode on high is the treatment. Karan is the master of the art and he has proved it yet again. want to have another flavor in this Eid, go and watch Student of the year. Recommended for all the youngsters out there.
