Ta Ra Rum Pum

Siddarth Anand is back in the director's seat after giving us Salaam Namaste.This time,Saif Ali Khan plays Rajveer Singh aka RV who is a successful race car driver.He is joined by his wive Radhika aka Shona(played none other by Rani Mukherji) and their two children,Champ and Princess.

The first half we see RV having a rags to riches story from being a tyre changer to a successful race car driver.He is joined by Billy from "Speeding Saddles",a disintegrating race company.He also falls in love with Radhika and we see their courtship to their eventual marriage.Following that they have 2 kids and a wonderful house and a wonderful life.

So that's that right? Apparently not.RV's career takes a turn for the worst when he gets involved in an accident during one of his racing stints.One year later,he attempts to get back into the racing game but memories from his accident still haunt him to this day.He eventually gets fired from Speeding Saddles.Money is now suddenly a big issue and the family of five (of course the would have to include a pet dog wouldn't they?)have to experience to live the hard life.

The first half is filled with racing scenes (surprisingly well done)and as mentioned we see the courtship of Saif and Rani complete with two songs "Ab to Forever" and "Hey Shona".Second half we see the family of five living the hard life but yet ending the day with a positive outlook on life,that tomorrow will be a better day.

The film picks up toward the second half.The family of four (excluding Bruno,the dog) have good chemistry together.Saif and Rani,two strong performers together with the two children entertain us throughout.Its a feel good movie that ought to be watched with the whole family.Siddarth is still clearly missing his "Salaam Namaste" days where Javeed recycles his jokes and the restaurant manager from SN is also back in this film.Is this film hard hitting?No.But nonetheless,you are sure to have a good time.

It has been almost 4 weeks since release of Namstay London and there had been no other major release recently. So, being movie aficionados we were quiet looking forward to this fast track racing action.

It is difficult to describe this film in a regular way. As we say in India; it is just too "Filmy"! It has all regular ingredients of a successful movie - a happy family (with dog), a tragedy, the downfall and then back to success amongst tears and a kid in hospital... It can't get more FILMY than this...

Having said that, I must say that it is an entertaining movie with some nice locations, rocking music, meaningful lyrics and decent acting from Saif & Rani. Saif doesn't quite reach the heights in terms of performances he gave in Omkara or Parineeta, but still he is looking good as family man.

This movie won't surprise you at all, in fact it has all tried and tested bollywood masala (right down to the Indian flags in the final winning sequence).

I generally do not prefer to write long previews as readers (including me) find them boring. In short, don't watch this movie for some extraordinary movie experience, but watch it if you want some decent fun with family & kids.

It was an awesome fun movie that we don't get much in our Indian film industry as the top directors like Karan Johar are making only emotional movies. I liked everything about this movie, and the music was superb. Also the actors played a very great role which includes Saif Ali Khan, Rani Mukherjee, Javed Jaffrey, and all the people who were part of the movie. And it surely matches up to its tag line: Don't worry be happy. Its a very good lesson for people especially Indian people as they get very tensed out really fast and look at the negative side of their lives. This movie teaches us how to tackle these everyday and real-life situations. And behind all that to always be happy as we never know if we will be alive the next day. The overall mood of the movie was not tragic at all, and that's what I liked especially about it. SRK is my favorite actor but he nowadays only appears in emotional movies so he should also appear in these kinds of movies, and I am telling you I seriously hate tragic movies. Because, you know in India people watch those Ekta Kapoor's daily soaps which has nothing but mostly tragedy. I say if TV serials and movies are all going to be tragic then there will be no fun. Hats off to this movie and I hope bollywood produces more of these kinds of movies so that watching movie can be fun again.

Ta Ra Rum Pum" is generally reviewed as a feel-good family entertainer with a mix of romance, drama, and thrilling car races. While some critics found the plot predictable and melodramatic, others appreciated the film's sincerity, uplifting messages, and portrayal of family values. The movie's strengths include its catchy music, strong performances by Saif Ali Khan and Rani Mukerji, and well-executed race sequences

The film's soundtrack, particularly the song "Ab To Forever," received positive feedback, and the visuals, especially the aerial shots of New York, were appreciated..

The movie's focus on family unity, love, and perseverance resonated with many viewers.

This film is such a joy for Hindi cinema goers and non Hindi cinema goers alike.

The songs are fantastic, they really move the story along and occur at just the right time to heighten the emotion. AB to forever is so catchy the audience clapped along! It is not a film for men who are expecting The fast and the Furious, it is a film, for softies - a great and genuinely lovable cast of characters portrayed with dignity and truth by top actors as they face the trials of life - with courage and a smile, according to the tag line. And they really do.

Rani and Saif are a believable and appealing couple, one hopes they will be paired again on screen, the children are adorable. Rani drunk is HI-Larious and Saif is such a thoughtful and witty actor. They both look at their most beautiful in this film. The family unit is totally compelling.

Ta Ra Rum Pum stays true to its Indian heart whilst embracing Western cultures and ideas without envy. A very enjoyable well made film
