The theatrical trailers were amazing. The special effects seemed mind boggling and the actor was my favourite. Abhishekh Bachchan.
Me and my brother could hardly wait for its release and the day it released we went to the nearest theatre- Movie World. We took the first day, first show tickets and that too the costliest of the places to seat. We took the snacks worth 400 bucks and the tickets cost another 350. So we sat down to watch the movie- DRONA.
The first ten minutes set the tone of the movie. It was slow, very slow. Very very slow. The plot barely moved.
It seemed it had been taken from Harry Potter's initial parts and combined with a couple of other movies like The Lightning Thief etc, the story seemed obvious.
Finally the movie picked some speed, but so did the stupidity. The villain was more of a buffoon. The plot was shambles. And we were a wreck.
The initial euphoria about the movie was long gone and I wanted to run away. But the 750 bucks I spent held me back.
Plot after plot revealed stupidities.
Raazpur was supposed to be a place in the movie which was so terrible where nobody could ever come back from. And raazpur turned out to be one such place except that it was a complete joke. People, i figured out, could not come back because they would die laughing at the so called disasters.
And finally I could not gulp the fact that drona reached Jodhpur from Amsterdam on a horse in less than an hour and that too landed on a train in the middle of the desert for no apparent reason.
The movie ended and we came out vowing that we will never watch another movie first day first show.
