ok so i went to watch gangster with high expectations. i had read like awsome reviews for it on indiafm. and bharat also was supposed to be treating me..(though that never happened) so i had all the reasons to expect a great evening. the big question is did i?? truth be told, i did in fact have a great time.

so over to the movie now.
gangster is a movie about simran (the actoress kangana), a girl living alone in seol, south korea. simran is an alcoholic and alone away from her country. she is befriended by another indian, emraan hashmi (can't remember his character's name). emraan is in love with her but simran does not recipocate the feelings. she has a secrect that is holding her back. her secrect is that she is in fact the girlfriend of a dreaded gangster, dayya (shiny ahuja). dayya is on the run and has left simran in seol to keep her safe. so simran spens her days waiting for dayya elusive phone calls and his eventual return. however she ends up falling for emraan and dayys too returns.. what happens next??

gangster is a complicated movie that tells the story in both present and flashback. the two are woven intricatley and as i found out some people got very confused. as for me i liked the movie. it was different, i loved the twists. and of course the acting of shiny ahuja is outstanding. also the fact that he is attractive was a plus point. (there is actually a dude in SMU who looks like him!!!!!) some things that were off was the fact that simran wore boots in many senses to end up eventually changing into sandles magically. and kangana's voice is damm irritating. she sounds like she has her mouth filled with saliva when she spoke. the perfect way to ruin the romantic settings in the movie was to hear her speak!!
but on another note her dressing is very nice except for the scene where she is running around seol in a sweater....and nothing else. her hair was different from the usual (straight, coloured, highlighted). it was nice black and curly. reminded me of my long hair...so back to the movie, i loved shiny ahuja. he's such an emoter!! wonderful!! and i loved the whole bad guy image of his. emraan hashmi's character was such an ass. i mean i really hated his character in the end. so yea gangster is a nice movie to watch. i give it 4 out of 6 stars..
