SKR (Suhel Khan Reviews) - Tubelight
That’s probably Salman (Bhai) Khan waving goodbye to his haters and trollers!
Well, let me start with this… This is basically a pre-watch rant
for the movie Tubelight.
A Movie that most of the Salman (and many of SRK) fans have
been waiting for, over two years now! Salman Khan fans of course due to basic
lack of common sense and poor cinematic choice… SRK fans for the mentioned 2
reasons, plus a chance to troll Salman Khan fans!
Now let me be very clear… I DO NOT HATE SALMAN OR SHAHRUKH!
I am a KHAN myself…
Salman Khan fandom was part of my upbringing! Born in 1983,
my childhood was flooded with reruns on VCR for Maine Pyaar kiya and QSQT (If
you do not know what is QSQT, you should probably stop reading this further)
SRK of course came in later, but came in with a bang!
So, as I said, I haven’t watched Tubelight yet. Coz its
Ramzan and we do not go to cinema houses in Ramzan. (Pssst… Mobile screens,
Smart TV’s, Tablets etc. do not count… BIG PICTURE GUYS … PLEASE)
But there is something about Salman Khan that pulls crowds
of all ages, caste, areas etc. You name the categorization and they are there…
There is no denying the fact that the movies of most Khans
(barring Irrfan and Aamir) are driven purely by star power and not by script or
storyline. Some of them do not have these at all…
What is it? Is it the time of release? The marketing? The
created hype? The Good Today-Bad Tomorrow image of Salman Bhai? Thousands of
screens?
The clear answer is: NO ONE KNOWS!
But there is no harm! At the end of the day, they are laughing
their way to the banks, getting more and more offers and there is only an
upward trend showing in their fan following.
Sometimes I just feel that SRK and Salman are just two best
friends, who have successfully managed to con (for the lack of a better word)
the entire nation.
Their fans happily troll each other on social media and in a
quest to prove their star’s power, end up creating the box office returns.
Little do they know what they term as an “accomplishment”, was actually the targeted
number by SKF and Red Chillies entertainment…
So coming back to Tubelight… Kabir Khan and Salman Khan
(Remember Ek Tha Tiger and Bajrangi Bhaijaan??), Add the last performance of
late Om Puri (Who for no reason looks like Colonel Sanders), Music by Pritam,
Eid Release, Cameo by SRK, Patriotism (coz India-China) …
What else do you need?
Salman Khan hold an emotional value in most of Indian
households… Most love him, some hate him! We all have our reasons.
As I said earlier… Salman does not need any of these… Not
even a script, not even a storyline… NOTHING!
His fans like me will ensure 300 Cr at least …
Watch this space for the post watch review as well!
Bye for now…
