Ram Gopal Varma’s gags should be stopped, period!! His next movie should be “How to make a big B movie with Big B”. Coz thats what he has done, taken 3 national award winning actors and made the biggest B-grade movie ever. (with due apologies to B grade movie makers, dont sue me)
With Mohanlal, Big B, Ajay Devgan, Sushmita Sen, guess who gets maximum screen time – Nisha Kothari as ghunghroo, basanti’s new age avtaar!! I wouldnt have minded much if she stuck to her regular attire, but no, RGV made the cardinal mistake of trying to make her act. Since basanti’s horse cart was replaced by an auto, she had to do both Basanti’s and Dhanno’s roles, and as far as dubbing goes, she succeeded, coz she sounded like a child that they might have had while horsing around!!!
And poor poor Mohanlal, who in my view is the finest actor around, bar none. i wonder how RGV convinced him to wear a beard that must have come out of Anil Kapoor’s waxed remains or something, I am sure RGV didnt pay for it. That, or somewhere, some bear is missing its posterior fur!!
And Chakravarty (Satya), Rajpal Yadav and VJ Gaurav, all in roles which competed with Nisha Kothari’s regular costumes and acting talent in terms of miniscule-ness. To cut a long story short, the only entity that deserves Aag is RGV’s factory, they really should set fire to that place.

I never meant to see it anyway, thanks for strengthening my resolve.

TOI said that Nisha has made a kachumber out of ole Basanti.
Afterthought: RGV also made Nishabdh and Naach 😀
