I wonder how the movie ratings are done. I delayed watching Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi seeing the lukeworm   response from the critics. I was wrong. I find RNBDJ to be one of the best films of 2008.

Cast: Shahrukh Khan, Anushka Sharma, Vinay Pathak

This third directorial venture of Aditya Chopra reveals extraordinary love in every ordinary couple. Shahrukh as both Suri and Raj is awesome, at times was wondering if Shahrukh would come out of the screen and ask me “so, how was it?” He could involve the audience.The scene where he beats the Japanese sumo wrestler by getting him off the balance reminded me of the oft repeated study of corporate strategy: David Vs Goliath or how a new entrant into the market place can compete against the most established ones. Sharukh used his small body and agility against the weight and power of the sumo wrestler to topple him.

Good humour, comedy,songs made it a really entertaining one. But I felt the movie is a bit stretched one making it slow at times. Vinay Pathak is always interesting. However Anushka Sharma was a big  let down . Perhaps that  could be the  reason for  the lower rating .

There are a few take aways from the film. Rab ne bana di Jodi – our relationships are determined , you can always find your dream girl or man in your partner once you are awakened to it. Of course you need to make efforts!

My rating is 3.5 out of 5
