Ghajini - A Recipe

Ghajini - A Recipe for Masala Movie Dummies

INGREDIENTS

  • Avenging Terminator-like hero who forgets his constipation every fifteen minutes
  • Goody-two shoes heroine who's head is mistaken for a golf ball (could be forgiven had it been the hero)
  • Second female lead - a.k.a. Flash card substitute and part-time diary reviewer
  • Random police inspector - full-time diary reviewer who seemingly had a falling out with the director in the middle of the movie
  • A villain who decided that he would either be menacing or would die trying (Guess what happened)
  • Andro-whatever-the-!@#%-is-it Amnesia
  • Tattoos to distract people from Aamir's ears

METHOD:

  • Add some mediocre songs to taste
  • Attempt in vain to include a tight script
  • Mix vehemently for 3 hours and pray

Serve hot with gratuitous doses of violence.

PS: A snack stretched to a meal can result in people desiring amnesia.

PPS: Aamir's previous work has (unjustifiably) skewed my expectation from whatever he's involved with. The silver lining is that it made me watch Memento again
