Hey People...
Here Is My Review On The Film Soundtrack!!!!!
Finally Last Night @ Imax, I Was Able To Catch The Movie 'Soundtrack'.
A Movie For Which I Was Waiting, Very Eagerly For The Past Two
Weeks...Yes The Movie Released Two Weeks Late In Hyderabad, Par Koi
Baat Nahii 'Dher Aaye Durust Aaye'...I Wanted To Watch The Movie On
The 7th Of October, But I Watched It On The 21st Of October & Now
The Date 21st October Will Be In My Memory Forever, For Two Reasons,
One, I Saw A Very Awesome, Inspiring, Different Unique Movie On This
Date & Secondly, Rajeev Khandelwal, The Actor Has Yet Again Left A
Deep Impact On My Heart & I Could See Rajeev In Every Single Frame
Of The Movie...& These Memories Are Something Which I Would
Cherish Always... 'Soundtrack', A Movie Whose Title It Self Says It
Has Something To Do With The Sound...& True To It's Title, The
Movie Movie's Main Element Is Only Sound...Yes There Are Actors In The
Movie, But It Is The Sound What We Hear, Which Creates All The Flavors
In The Movie...The Title Is Very Apt...Generally When A Person Hears
The Name 'Soundtrack', The First Thought Which Crosses That Person's
Mind Would Be, 'Soundtrack', Yeh Kaisa Naam Hai...Because The Title
Indicates A Track, A Music, Or Even A Piece Of Sound, But Once After
Seeing The Movie, Everyone Would Feel That 'Soundtrack', The Title Of
The Film Gels So Well With The Movie..It Is A Perfect Title For The
Perfect Movie...A Track Of Music, A Track Of Life, A Track Of Ups
& Downs In Life, A Track Of Moving Away From Your Path, A Track Of
Going Into A Wee Bit Of Depression, A Track Of Starting Life From The
Scratch Again, A Track Of Being Able To Feel Alive Again, A Track Of
Killing Your Inner Demons, A Track Of Triumph Over The Evilness In
Life, A Track Of Being Able To Make Anything Possible, A Track Of
Making Your Disability Your Biggest Strength, A Track Of Seeing Life In
A
New Light, This Is What The Film 'Soundtrack' Is All
About.. 'Soundtrack' Is A Movie Which Teaches People... It Has A
Teaching,
A Moral Value Attached To It...& The Moral One Takes Back After
Watching The Film Is That, 'It Is Never Too Late, If You Want To Come
Back From The Dead'...The Movie Is A Very Different One...It Is Not
For Those People Who Like Clinched Bollywood Movies, Where You Can See
Nothing But The Hero, Heroine Behaving Sissy & Running Around The
Trees..It Is Just Not For Those People...'Soundtrack' Is A Movie,
Which Is Out Of The Box, Unique, For People Who Like Good Cinema, For
People Who Crave To Wach Meaningful Films...Sound Is So Important In
One's Life, Without Being Able To Hear The Sound, Sometimes I Wonder
What Would A Persons Life Be Like...I Wonder, When A Person Is Hearing
Impaired, Then How Would Their Life Be...I Suppose It Would Be Like A
Lull Of Silence, But Even With This Lull Of Silence People Manage To
Live Their Life, Take 'Beethoven' For Example, He Is The Person Who Has
Inspired The Movie, Though Going Through A Journey Of Being Able To
Hear, To Hearing Impaired That Still Did Not Stop Him...& This Is
What Is The Story Of DJ Raunak Kaul, Who Comes From Being A Nobody, To
The Hottest Property Of The Night Club Tango Charlie, Making Him The
Indispensible, King Of DJ & Then Life Rattles Him Yet Again &
From Being The 'In Guy' Now Becomes Hearing Impaired & Goes To
Being A Guy Who Is Just Remembered & Then Life Again Takes A New
Turn & People Are Aware Of This New, Reformed, Raunak Kaul Who Can
Feel The Music...Who
Has Started Living & Learnt To Live With His Disability & Is
Making
His Disability His Strongest Will...This Is What 'Soundtrack' Is All
About...Journey Of Raunak Kaul, From A Nobody To A Hot Property, From
Failures To Disasters To Triumph In Life...It Is Said That Success Is
The Sweetest Only After Facing Failures & This Seems To Be True In
This Movie...The Happiness Of Triumph The Movie Gives In The End, After
The Failures In Life, Is Something Which Will Remain With Me As A
Audience Forever...According To Me 'Soundtrack' Is A Awesome,
Inspiring Movie..A Movie Which Will Make People Have Goose-Bumps In
Certain Scenes, A Movie Which Will Make People Laugh, Cry With The
Character Of Raunak Kaul, A Movie Which Will Leave The Audience In A
Thought That, It Is Never Too Late...Loved It To The Core..DJ Raunak
Kaul, Ne Zindagi Jeena Ka Ek Naya Salika Seekha Diya...Truly A Very
Nice Movie...A Wonderful Experience...Yes In Life One Has To Surely Go
Through Umpteen Number Of Ups & Downs, There Are Many Phases In
Life, But What 'Soundtrack' Teaches You Is That, We Should Never Let
Any Phase Of Our Life Effect Us So Much, That We Forget The Essence,
Meaning & Way Of Living A Happy Life...Soundtrack Proves That
Where There Is A Will There Is A Way. Soundtrack Via The Medium Of
Raunak Kaul, Humein Yeh Sikhatha Hai Kii Zindagi Dubara Jeene Ke Liye,
Bas Humein Kuch Band Darwaaze Kholne Chahiye..We Just Have To Come Out
Of Our Boundaries, Set New Parameters, Then Nothing Is
Impossible..Impossible Itself Becomes I'am possible...Making Things
Possible, With Any Disability Is What 'Soundtrack' Is About...The
Movies Music Is Very Good, It Goes With The Scenes, It Is Something
Like The Music Of The Movie Is Embedded & Embossed In The Movie In
A Very Beautiful Way... Sometimes It Is Because Of The Songs That Play
In The Background That You Relate More To The Particular
Scene...Midival Punditz & Karsh Kale, Have Done A Very Good Job
In The Aspect Of The Muic Of The Film...The Cinematography Of The
Movie Is Very Neat... Director Neerav Ghosh Has Done A Very Good Job,
For A First Time Director...He Has Taken Care Of All The Small
Nuisances In The Movie...Yes The Movie Has It's Own Share Of Wee Bit Of
Glitches, But I Will Come To That Later...Now I Will Talk About The
Actors In The Movie...First Of All, Let Me Talk About Charlie, Tango
Charlie's Owner & Ex-Owner, Yes He Is A Selfish Character But Still
He Is A Very Good Friend...Such Friends Are Very Important In
Life...Mohan Kapoor Was Very Good In The Role Of A Money Minded, But A
Very Good Friend...& He Has Given A Perfect Name For 'Shonali In
The Movie Asking Raunak 'Tum Is Musibath Ke Saath Kyun Ho, Koi Majboori
Hai'...Haha...Next Talking About Raunak's Chacha, Played By Yatin
Karyekar, He Played His Part Well...Though It Was A Small Role But He
Did Well...Next Talking About Ankur Tewari The Guitarist &
Siddharath Coutto The Drummer, Never Knew Musicians Could Act...As
They Were Playing Musicians In The Movie, They Fit The Role
Well... Next Let Me Talk About, The Character Playing Raunak's Mother,
Well I Seriously Have No Comments To Give About Her...Finally Coming
To The Main Cast Of The Movie, Mrinilini Sharma, Playing The Character
Of Shonali, She Was Very Weird, I Was Not Able To Understand Her
Character, You Know All She Was Bothered About Was Her Sun Tan, Her
Manicure, Pedicure, I Know People Like Shonali Exist In Real Too, But
It Was Just That Her Character Was Weird...For Example, Their Is A
Scene In The Movie, Where Raunak Throws The DJ Equipment In The
Night Club, The Next Day Shonali Instead Of Sitting With Raunak, Like A
Dutiful Girlfriend Ask Him His Woes, She In-Turn Continues Her
Cribbing...All She Does In The Movie Is To Complain & Crib...So
In Short Her Character Was That Of A Weirdo...& Anyway Mrinalini
Was Fine In That Role..Next Talking About, Soha Ali Khan, Who Plays The
Hearing Impaired Girl Gauri, A Girl Who Though Cannot Hear Sounds But
Still Smiles, Still Lives Her Life To The Fullest...She Knows That
Life Is Very Precious & She Cannot Be Brooding Over Her Disability
& Stop Living It..Her Character In The Movie Is Very Nice.. She Is
Sweet...Though Soha's Role In The Movie Comes Majorly Only After The
Intermission, Still One Can Relate To Her Character...Soha After 'Rang
De Basanti' I Think Is Apt For The Role Of Gauri...& She Has Done
Full Justice To Her Role..& Yes Seeing Gauri & Raunak Together
One Can Feel The Chemistry & Love Blossoming Between The Two Of
Them... While With Raunak
& Shonali, The Chemistry Was Missing...Soha Ali Khan, Reminded Me
Of Her Mother Sharmila
Tagore, In Many Scenes...The Scene Where She Tells Raunak 'Hamesha
Doosra Raastha Hotha Hai', The Scenes Where She Spells Names Such As
Gauri, Raunak As Aurii, Aunak, Are Very Beautifully Written...&
The Scenes Where Gauri Pronounces The Words Wrong, Are Not Because It
Is A Blooper Or Something But It Is Because Gauri Has Never Heard Sound
& One Cannot Know The Correct Pronounciation, Without Being Able To
Hear The Sound...I'am Glad The Directors Have Kept This In
Mind...Gauri's Character Is Well Shaped In The Movie & Soha Has
Done A Good Job...Last But Not The Least, Let Me Talk About The
Protagonist Of The Movie, On Whom The Movie Is Centric, Jiske Liye Main
Yeh Film Dekhne Gayi Thi, Rajeev Khandelwal, Yaani Kii 'Soundtrack'
Film Ke Unconventional Hero, Joh Sab Ke Dilon Mein Chaap Chod Jaathe
Hai, 'Raunak Kaul'...Raunak Kaul, Ek Aisa Ladka Jiski Zindagi Mein
Sabse Zyada Uski Music Mayine Rakhthi Hai...In The First Scene, When
Raunak Lands In Mumbai, His Love For Music Can Be Seen, The Way He
Seems To Hear Music In Everything From A Cars Honk, To A Trains Sound,
It Just Goes Onto Show Music Is His Life...There Is Some Sort Of Fire,
Passion In Him, Which Audience Can Relate With, Fire To Achieve, The
Passion To Become Big, This Can Be Clearly Seen...Raunak's Scene With
The Beggar, Has A Lot Of Meaning, The Blind Beggar Telling Raunak Yes
He Can't See, But His Ears Can, That One Sentence Has A Whole Lot Of
Meaning...Raunak Telling Charlie That, He Made That Jhoom Fakira Jhoom
Song With A Second Hand Computer & A First Class Artist, This Shows
How Much Raunak Respects Music & Musicians, Though The Singer Is A
Beggar He Is A Artist...Bravo...Raunak Becoming The Hottest Property
Of Tango Charlie, But By Being Successful Comes The Bad Side Of It Too,
Money, Women, Drugs, Alcohol & Raunak's Life Looses It's Path...The
Jhonny Joker Bit Was So Damn Scary...You Know When A Persons Inner
Demons, His Own Hallucinations Starts Over-Shadowing Him Every Single
Second, A Person Will Go Mad... Mannn...Jhonny Joker, Being Around
Raunak Day In & Day Out Was Giving Me Goose-Bumps...I Felt That
Those Scenes Were Justified, They Were Not At All Abrupt...The Jhonny
Joker Scenes Just Depicted Raunak's Life, Which Was Going Towards The
Downside...Raunak Kaul, I Mean Rajeev Khandelwal, Was Brilliant In His
Interactions With Jhonny Joker...There Are Some Scenes Which Have
Left A Deep Impact On Me, The Scene Where Raunak Meets The Doctor, The
Scene Where He Tells Charlie, Yaar Charlie Soch Raha Hoon Doctor Ke
Pass Chala Jaaun, The Scene Where He Reacts After Getting To Know Only
30% Of His Hearing Ability Is Left That Too In The Left Ear, The Scene
Where Raunak Goes Completely Deaf, Because Of The Drummer, I Hated The
Drummer In
That Scene...The Scene Just Before The Interval When Raunak's Ear
Starts
Bleeding, The Scene After The Interval With Yeh Jeevan Hai & Naina
Laagey Re, All Were Wonderfully Performed By Rajeev...It Is Surely The
Mark Of A Class Actor...Very Beautifully Written...I Cried When I Saw
Blood Oozing Out Of Raunak's
Ears, I Cried When After The Interval, Yeh Jeevan Hai Plays, I Cried
When Raunak Chases Jhonny Joker Removes His Mask & Sees Himself, At
That Moment A Single Tear Flows Down His Eyes & The Tears From My
Eyes Just Don't Seem To Stop...Then Comes The Phase Of Raunak Redeeming
Himself, The Hug He Gives His Mother, When He Says Bas Behra Hua Hoon,
The Way He Learns Lip Reading, The Way To Starts Feeling Music, The Way
He Gives A New Way To Life, All Are Too Commendable...Rajeev
Khandelwal, Has Given His Best...& There Is No One, Mark My Words
No One Who Could Have Done The Role Of Raunak Kaul, Better Then Rajeev
Khandelwal Himself...I'am Not Saying This As A Rajeevian Or Being A
Rajeev Khandelwal Admirer, But I'am Saying This From A Audience Point
Of View...The Scene Where Raunak Tells Charlie Kaisa Hai Maine Kabhi
Suna Nahii, Makes My Heart Go Out For Him, But 'Soundtrack' Being A
Happy Movie Does Not Make Me Feel Any Sympathy Towards 'Raunak'..&
I
Feel That Is The Way It Should Be...Because Disable People Hate
Sympathy, They Want To Be Treated As Equal, One Among The
Crowd...Raunak's
Love For Music Proves To Be Greater Than His Disability...& His
Disability Becomes A Ability...& I Simply Love That...In The Movie
It Is Said That Raunak
Kaul, Is A Role Model For Many, Yes Raunak Kaul Played By Rajeev
Khandelwal Is A Role Model In My Life & Once Again He Has Inspired
Me & Shown The Way That A Disability Is Never A Curse ,
Bas Nazariye Ka Farq Hotha Hai...Post Interval, The Reformed Raunak, Is
Too Adorable...Raunak Ne Tho Sach Mein Mere Dil Mein Raunak Kar Diya
Hai...After The Interval, The Movie Becomes Sober But At The Same Time
Has A Hard Hitting Impact On The Heart...The Name Raunak Gives To His
CD 'Raunak Was Hear' Says A Lot, The Press Conference, His Hesitation,
Shows That Life Has Changed For The Better For Him...Loved Rajeev &
Soha's Chemistry...Raunak Proposes To Her In Such A Off Beat Way,
Simple Way, This Shows Expressing Emotions Do Not Need Extravaganza
Prefixed Or Suffixed To It...I Cried During Ek Manzil, They Were Happy
Tears, Victory Tears...& The Last Scene Where Raunak Teaches The
Kids To Feel Music, I Felt Contended, Satisfied...& It Made Me Feel
Happy From The Heart..& All I Was Doing Was Singing As Loudly As I
Could 'Le Chalo Mujhe Jannat Jahaan'...Jannat Need Not Be A Place Where
There Is Money, Fame, Popularity, But There Is Always Heaven On This
Earth Where One Can Find Their True Path, True Destiny & True
Happiness...Rajeev Khandelwal, Was Super Duper In The Movie, He Played
The Role To The 'T' Of Perfect...After Seeing 'Soundtrack' I Can
Clearly See That Rajeev Has Grown As An Actor, From 'Aamir' To
'Shaitan'
To 'Soundtrack', He Has Made His Way To The Hearts Of The Audience...
Will Watch It Again For Sure It Is A Beautifully Made Movie...Rajeev
Khandelwal Yet Again Leaves A Mark In My Heart..A Top Class Performance
By Him..Raunak Kaul, Name Is Now Engraved In My Heart & It Will
Always Be So...Soundtrack, For Me Is Music From The Soul & The
Movie Surely Has Touched My Soul...Rajeev Totally
Rocks...Love Him To The Core...In The Starting Kailash Kher Says,
'Kitne Aathe Hai Yahaan Taqdeer Aazmaane, Par Kuch Gine-Chune Hii
Naseeb Waale Hothe Hai Joh Chaap Chod Jaathe Hai', By The End Of The
Movie This Turned Out To Be True...Movie Ke Aakhir Thak Raunak Kaul,
Ne Mere Dil Par Ghehri Chaap Chod Hii Dii...Aur Yeh Chaap Bhoole Se
Bhi Bhulaaya Nahii Jaa Saktha...Rajeev Has Done A Superb, Fanastic
Job In The Movie...The Movie In Short Is A Very Good Watch, For
People Who Want Too See Movies Which Are Away From The Usual.. The
First
& The Second Half Is Equally Balanced...While The 1st Half Before
The Interval Shows, Raunak From Being Nothing, To A DJ, To A Man Who
Gets Lost With The Fame, To A Man Who Slowly Starts Loosing His Hearing
Ability, To Going Deaf Completely, While The 2nd Half Shows Raunak's
Life From Going Through Depression, To Trying To Kill Himself, To
Understanding The Meaning Of Life, To Meeting Gauri, To Being Able To
Lip Read, To Being Able To Feel The Music Again, To Finding True Love,
To Being Able To Alive
Again...The Movie Is Perfectly Well Balanced...I Do Not Feel The
Movie Is Being Dragged Anywhere...It Was Wonderful Movie To Watch..A
Experience Which Will Remain With Me For Many, Many Years To Come...My
Elder Sisters Feel, It Is A Sweet, Simple, Sensitive, Happy & A
Good Movie... & They Also Feel It Is Rajeev's Best Movie Till
Date...& I Feel The Same Too...It Is Just A Happy Movie
Which Paves Way For A New Way Of Life...The Movie Has Glitches In
The Sense That, The Lady Who Plays Raunak's Mother Is A Complete Misfit
So Minus 0.25 Stars For This From My Side, Then Shonali's Character Is
Completely Weird, I Feel She Is A Irritating Blabber Mouth, So Again
Another Minus 0.25 For Her Character & Finally The One Main Glitch
I Have With The Movie Is That, The Movie Is A Music Oriented Film, But
In The Film, No Song Was Played Fully, For Example, Yeh Jeevan Hai's
Only First Para Was Played, Rukh Jaa Na Nahii's Only First Para Was
Played Again...Though The Songs Gelled Well With The Movie, I Felt That
Because It Is Movie About Films & The Songs Are So Good, The Whole
Songs Should Have Been Played In The Background...So Minus 0.75 For
This From My Side...These Are Just The Negative Things I Found In The
Movie.. Anyway Considering That The Movie Is So Good, These Can Be
Ignored. Special Mention To The Picturization Of Naina Laagey Re &
Ek Manzil In The End...& Yes I Loved Rajeev's Look Throughout The
Movie, But In The Last Scene Of The Movie, It Was Wowww...&
One More Scene Which I Would Like To Mention Is The Scene Where Raunak,
Lights The Dynamite On His Forehead, I Was So Scared...Bravo To Rajeev
Khandelwal For Doing It...Hat's Off To Him... The Scene Where The Lull
Of Silence Dooms Raunak's Life, Is So Touching, My Heart Goes Out To
Him...Rajeev Simply Out-Performed Himself In This Scene...All In All A
Very Good
Movie...Loved It Immensely...A Power Packed Performance By
Rajeev...Sizzling Chemistry Between Rajeev & Soha...A Brave
Attempt...Liked The Fact That 'Beethoven's' Quotes Were Used &
Credit Was Given To 'It's All Gone Pete Tong'...A Commendable Movie
Recommended To Movie Lovers Craving For A Different Kind Of Cinema...A
Effort Truly Worth A Round Of
Deafening Applause...👏
I Would Give The Movie 3.75 Stars Out Of 5...😊
P.S: Going To The Movie Soundtrack, Was A Surprise For Me..My Elder
Sisters Arranged For It...They Booked The Tickets On Wednesday
Itself...Hehehe..😉😉
P.P.S: For The Past Three Days, I Have Been Changing My Caller Tone,
Hello Tune, Day Before Yesterday It Was 'Le Chalo Mujhe Jannat Jahaan',
Yesterday it Was 'Ruk Jaanaa Nahii' & Today It Is 'Torey Aankhiyon
Se Naina Lagey Re'...😃😃
