Ram Jaane

I missed this film when it first came out and just saw it on DVD. The story line is very depressing though not really removed from reality.There is a great deal of violence and the usual overblown underworld but all that fades with the presence of Shahrukh Khan. In fact the great strength of the movie is the remarkable performance of Shahrukh Khan as the main protagonist. He is believable as a victim of circumstances who retains great moral strength and ability to fight back but also has pathos. He retains audience sympathy throughout. The heroine Juhi Chawla is rather weak. We can understand the obsession and love of the 'hero' for her but cannot make her out at all. We have to take her at her word that she loves Murli the good character and is just pretending love or affection for the hero. But there is no conflict in her emotions or evidence of what she really feels for the Shahrukh character. Is he able to get through to her at all? The ending is unsatisfactory in this regard. A film well worth seeing for the performance of Shahrukh Khan.

Ram Jaane is a Bollywood attemp in the gangster genre. A copy of James Cagneys Angels with dirty souls. Does it succeed in entertainment and is it worth the watch. The answer is YES, and this is only because of Shah Rukh Khans performance. Ram Jaane (Shah rukh khan) is about a orphan who is dumped in the bin and grows up to be a street wise smart gangster. Shah rukh Khan delivers a Great Performance, full of energy and a lovable confident character, his style, his fast talking, personality throughout. Why doesn't he make more of this kind of role. The movie also stars the very sexy Juhi Chawla in a decent role and looks great in the songs. Vivek Mushram who is long gone and forgotten acts will. Pankaj Kapoor is amusing as the Funny Gangster. Songs are decent. This movie is entertaining. If you like action movies and Shah Rukh Khan, It is worth the watch.

This film is the epitome of LOVE, DEATH and PASSION. It successfully captures themes of each aspect, into a breathtaking acting peformnce from the main protagonist Ram Jaane (Shah Rukh Khan), alongside other actors/actresses. The acting reflected the situations in every scene. Lastly, and how can i forget, the songs, catchy and powerful.

I just came here to say that despite everything, this is actually quite a profound movie. And I'm no Shah Rukh Khan expert but I've seen him in movies where he was good, as well as in movies where he was bad. In this one he's good. I started watching this movie not knowing what to expect but I definitely enjoyed the experience. You just have to keep an open mind and let the movie unfold in it's own style.

OK. Apparently you have to write at least 600 characters so here goes. If you're not used to Bollywood movies, you may be taken aback by the overacting. I've come to learn that it's actually an artistic choice in this genre and once you get used to it you realize that it really contributes to the escapism these movies provide.

I remember how excited I was to see Ram Jaane, I was thinking to myself "This movie is definitely going to rock like all of Shahrukh and Juhi's other films; I can't wait to see it!" But I was WRONG... Ram Jaane ended up falling way below my expectations. The story itself isn't really that exciting or on the other hand that boring, you could say it's about average.

Also, Shahrukh and Juhi weren't even together at all in this film! I know that SRK was in love with Juhi in Ram Jaane, but she was interested in some other guy which practically took out all the fun of the film itself! As for the acting, I'd have to say that Shahrukh had done a fabulous job playing his role and Juhi did a fairly good job at playing the role of Bela.

I, myself as a fan of Shahrukh-Juhi was really disappointed after watching Ram Jaane and I know that many of the other SRK-Juhi fans were let down as well.

All in all, Ram Jaane deserved a 4/10!
