Rock
On!! is a pretty tribute to all those inconsequential bands, that ALMOST quite made it. This is the story of not just most bands that face the hurdles of ego-hassles, time commitments, artistic credit or rivalry, but the the larger picture. How this little inconsequential band affects the lives of the 4 young rockstars, how it affects the lives of their girlfriends, their rival bands, and most importantly their self-development. With cute guys, a GREAT soundtrack and an excellently, and effortlessly done screenplay, this movie shall boast of not just great profits made, but of a new era of Bollywood films that can speak for themselves without flaunting a danceable song & dance routine, a uniquely impressive star cast and inflated egos. It is a classic because it shows that Bollywood has come of age. It is extremely touching to see the poor Luke Kenny sickened by his thirst for Magic. It is simulating to see a fabulously wealthy Farhan Akthar find his way back home, away from all the dough and into the religion called Music. It is sad to see the bad-luck ridden Arjun Rampal with quite the talent and looks, but little else. Purab is heart warming throughout. Rock On!! is a stunner, a 4 starrer for sure.
