Movie Report:

Veer is a film directed by Anil Sharma and the story of the film is written by actor Salman Khan. The film is about Pindaris, a group of tribals, who prefer death to betrayal. At the same time Veer is a love story too. Inspired from Taras Bulbula, Veer reminds of films like Kranti, Mard, Dharam Veer and even Gladiator.

Set in pre independence era, Veer narrates the tale of the valiant Pindari tribe that fought against the British. It is circa 1862 when the Raja of Madhavgarh aligning with the British, treacherously kills 4,500 Pindhri soldiers despite them helping him defeating his enemies.

Pindhari warrior Prithvi Singh (Mithun) vows to slaughter the Raja (Jackie Shroff) and every British soldier that comes his way. His son grows up to be a dare devil fighter, Veer (Salman Khan). Prithvi sends his sons Veer and Punya (Sohail Khan) to London for an education so they can figure out how the British mind works.

But matters become complicated when Veer falls in love with the princess of Madhavgarh, Yashodhara (Zarine Khan). Now while vowing to get back his father's honour, he also has to balance his love for her. How Veer valiantly battles the wicked king and the British and even manages to kick-start the Indian independence movement forms the rest of the film.

Acting wise, Salman Khan is the soul of the film. He looks dashing and dynamic playing as Veer. Zarine Khan looks beautiful on-screen but she carries the same expression through out the film. Mithun Chakraborty is as solid as ever. Jackie Shroff is okay. Sohail Khan is repetitive. Puru Rajkumar and Aryan Vaid impress in their small parts.

On the whole, Veer is more a Love story than a warriors film. The film does not have anything special or different. It's a simple film. Good to watch Salman Khan as dashing and dynamic soldier.

Salman and Aamir's arty dosti

Over the past two days, the atmosphere at Salman Khan’s house has been festive, thanks to Katrina Kaif’s birthday yesterday. Salman Khan and his family started celebrating Kat’s birthday at the stroke of midnight on Tuesday.

And it wasn’t just the Khan family that was excited about Kat’s birthday but also Aamir Khan. Katrina got a surprise visit from Aamir Khan who wished her on Tuesday night. Salman was so happy over Aamir’s visit that he gifted him a painting.

Our source says, “Aamir Khan had no clue that a private party was going on at Salman’s house to bring in Katrina’s birthday. It was a private ceremony and only Salman’s family members had got together for a little celebration at Salman’s residence in Galaxy Apartment at Band Stand in Mumbai.

Arbaaz Khan as well as Salman’s sister Alvira had brought a cake. Apart from them, Sohail Khan, Atul Agnihotri and designer Rocky S were also present at the dinner party. Salman called Aamir at around 1.30 am and asked him to come over.

Aamir immediately obliged. When he reached Salman’s house he was surprised to see that a party was on in full swing. Aamir wished Katrina and spent some time with all of them. Salman then showed him some of his recent paintings, and Aamir loved them. In fact, only Salman and Aamir went to the former’s room and had a long chat.

Aamir was impressed with Salman’s creativity. Sallu immediately took a pen and paper and made a sketch of Aamir in his Ghajini look. Aamir was present there for about four hours and was seen leaving the Khan residence at 5.30 am on Wednesday morning.”

The Salman-Aamir friendship certainly seems to be going from strength to strength.
