Happy New Year review: This SRK starrer is like Ocean’s 11 re-written by baboons

Masala entertainment movie making lesson number 1: if you cast Shah Rukh Khan in your movie, it will eventually make money, no matter how stupid, tiresome and humorless it is. Case number 157: Happy New Year, aka the new Farah Khan Vanity Project for the lowest of the lowest common denominator audience.

There are hundreds of ways in which a movie could disinterest you, although few films come as close to scaling the peak of boredom as Happy New Year does. This is a film that exists for no other reason but to parade the astonishing star power of its hero to the aam janta. Intelligence and quality don’t matter. Sure, there have been worse desi films this year, but none have treated its audience in such a casually dismissive fashion. The movie looks and feels like a home video project that was intended for appreciation by precisely two people in the entire universe - Farah and Shah Rukh Khan.

I was about an hour into Happy New Year before I started wondering what the heck it was about. It seemed to be about Charlie (SRK) planning a heist against a magnate (Jackie Shroff) with his friends to avenge his dead dad. But then, for some reason, they participate in a dance competition that’s supposed to be a front for the heist. This ridiculous contrivance could only be present because Farah Khan wanted some closure on her career before she became a filmmaker.

Diamonds, a safe, an underground tunnel, a hacker, a getaway plan – it sounds like the right ingredients, but all of it is so incredibly idiotic and illogical that Happy New Year feels like Ocean’s 11 re-written by baboons. There are a couple of fascinating things: Anupam Kher, who plays Charlie’s father is credited not as a special appearance, but as an “Emotional Appearance”. Charlie is named Charlie only because he can call his henchmen ‘Angels’. Even the iconic water fountain shot in Oceans 11 is reused here, probably to rub it in our faces.

That’s pretty much it. Set aside the astonishingly stupid plot, and all we're left with is an unending series of self-referential jokes on SRK’s earlier movies. When Charlie is about to lose a boxing match he says, “Badi badi matches mein choti choti cheez hoti rehti hai.” When Charlie has to instill confidence into someone, he says, “Main hoon na.” It’s so blatant and lazy it feels like you’re listening to a microphone planted under the bar stool of one of the stars on an off night.

There are other people in the cast, but this movie is only about SRK. The others don’t even get a chance to get a word in edgeways. One feels for Abhishek Bachchan, who’s given two roles and yet less screen time than Sonu Sood and his chest. Speaking of which, the male torso is displayed to a fetishist level here, beginning from SRK’s unintentionally hilarious intro: the man rises from the ground topless, dripping with wet mud. A hose pipe fires water on his body in slow-mo, and we zoom in on his left nipple, zoom out and zoom in on the right, then zoom out again. Kind of like in Batman and Robin.

How Farah Khan, who gave us hints of good satire in Om Shanti Om got sucked down into this vortex of ineptitude is anyone's guess, but Happy New Year is uncommonly stupid and tacky enough to make Sallu’s heist film Kick look as complex as Memento. Deepika Padukone once again has a weird accent, but is the least unlikable aspect of the movie, even though her character is an affront to depiction of women in cinema.

There are only a few things worse than Happy New Year, like

A) Vivaan Shah wasting his skills on fluff like this,

B) An Anurag Kashyap-Vishal Dadlani sex tape.

The latter actually exists in the movie. Kashyap also later appears in the film applauding the heroic heroes in the movie – it’s an unsubtle attempt by Farah Khan to proclaim once and for all that commercial cinema will always enslave indie. My reaction to this echoes Bachchan’s character quirk in the movie – violent, non-stop vomiting.

Movie review: Happy New Year a below average film

Farah Khan's masala flick Happy New Year has everything going well businesswise but it's extremely low on content. It's grand, beautiful, shot in exotic locations across Dubai, has all the SRK moves which fans love, a hit Jodi (Shah Rukh Khan - Deepika Padukone), it's visually appealing but there is nothing else apart from that!

Happy New Year is a heist thriller with a lot of naach gaana. Charlie (Shah Rukh Khan) wants to take revenge from Charan Grover (Jackie Shroff) because he betrayed Charlie's father (Anupam Kher), which landed him in jail and led to his death.

Grover runs a safety lockers' business and now that he will be shielding an expensive diamond at the Atlantis Hotel in Dubai, Charlie will steal it. Coincidently the day the diamond is going to arrive there is a dance competition at the same hotel. Charlie forms a group of people who are good enough to steal but not good dancers. The team (Abhishek Bachchan, Sonu Sood, Boman Irani and Vivaan Shah) now will take the help of a bar dancer Mohini (Deepika Padukone) to learn dancing and will eventually make their way to the vault.

The film is predictable and yes sometimes that's fine. You know the hero will make his way to the locker eventually but the journey to that locker should be gripping and entertaining and sadly this one is full of cliches. There are very few portions which are actually funny. Most of it is just illogical drama making no sense. It's not that I walked into the cinema to watch Happy New Year and find logic but in the film things don't fall into place and there are petty jokes. For instance, the Korean Dance Team is called Chicken Chilly and some dance moves make fun of Boman Irani while he gets recurring fits, now that's just bizarre!

Shah Rukh Khan has worked hard on his body for this film and he does a fine job of flaunting it. Extremely full of energy most of the times, he entertains. Deepika puts in sincere efforts but is limited because of the writing. Boman Irani plays a Parsi and is the funniest of the lot. Sonu Sood is brilliant. Abhishek Bachchan performs well too and so does Vivaan Shah.

Vishal Shekhar's music is good for the film, some songs set the mood since dance performances are a part of the plot.

Visually Happy New Year looks great but why wouldn't a film with a big banner, a talented filmmaker like Farah Khan, a good cast and great locations? That's never the challenge. The challenge is to entertain and Happy New Year falls short in entertaining, it's long length of over three hours being the weakest point.

There is no doubt that Farah Khan knows the craft well but she is yet to give an entertainer like Om Shanti Om.

If you go and watch Happy New Year, you will surely sit through it but will you walk out smiling? I can't take that guarantee.

What Made Deepika Padukone Cry

TOO MUCH HAPPINESS SEEMS TO HAVE MADE ACTRESS DEEPIKA PADUKONE TEARY-EYED

Too much happiness seems to have made actress Deepika Padukone teary-eyed. Team Happy New Year had some emotional confessions to make when they visited the NDTV studio on October 21.

Actors Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, Abhishek Bachchan, Boman Irani, Vivaan Shah and the film's director Farah Khan have been shooting for the film for almost 200 days followed by a series of concerts to promote the film. All this has created a strong bond among the team.

Boman, who got nostalgic at the show said, "We've been breaking-up, getting teary eyed now and then. People have been hiding behind little corners doing their little sniffles. And I feel it's a beautiful thing to feel like that for someone whom you may not be able to see for some time."

Deepika, by this time, was in tears, even as Farah asked shakily, "Why are you making us cry, Boman?" Boman continued, "This is the purity of staying together for more than 200 days and not wanting to let go."

He said, "Today we were watching Main Hoon Na in Shah Rukh's room, and we were recalling every moment of the film. I can tell you 25 years from now, we will be sitting in some hotel room, in some corner of the world, watching Happy New Year and feel the same."

This emotional anecdote brought forth more tears from Deepika. Both Deepika and Farah looked emotional, trying to fight back their tears. Shah Rukh later called Deepika and Farah "lovable emotional fools" 

On a Happy-er note, Deepika shared some bizarre secrets of her co-stars. She revealed, after much persuasion and coaxing, that Shah Rukh Khan feels awkward showing his feet. She said, "Shah Rukh has an issue with showing his feet to people. So he'll never take his shoes off and you'll never see him bare feet." "Or even in sandals," Farah chipped in.

SRK declined to explain, just saying that he feels awkward to which Farah humorously added, "Just the eight-pack abs he'll show, no feet."

Deepika also revealed that Boman is obsessed with good breath as he keeps on asking her for mouth-freshener and mints. Farah added that the her Shirin Aur Farhad Ki Nikal Padi co-star was obsessed with his looks and asks at least 10 times a day, "Am I looking good?"

In Vivaan's case, Deepika said that the son of veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah, has a peculiar style of dance. Vivaan, without wasting a minute, demonstrated his dance 'skills' to the tune of the film's song Lovely, and was soon joined by Shah Rukh, Deepika and Boman.

Deepika also revealed a not so dirty secret about herself, saying she is obsessed with cleanliness. The actress says she has borderline OCD and need to have everything perfect and clean, to which Farah said, "I have a dustbin in my car" and Shah Rukh explained, "Even the distance between the diya has to be uniform."

Happy New Year is slated to release a day after Diwali on October 24.

Happy New Year cast comes to Dubai

The cast of the much-awaited Diwali blockbuster Happy New Year -- Deepika Padukone, Shah Rukh Khan, Abhishek Bachchan, Sonu Sood, Boman Irani, Vivaan Shah and director Farah Khan -- walked into the Silk Ballroom at the Atlantis, The Palm Dubai, yesterday to talk up the movie ahead of the grand exclusive invite-only premiere at the same venue. But for the gathered media and sponsors it was a sombre sight as the team displayed little or none of the camaraderie that was so evident in the months leading up to the film’s release.

They appeared disconnected from each other, and though the normally genial Shah Rukh Khan turned out to be his trademark eloquent self while answering questions, he did not smile often and seemed preoccupied. A major portion of the heist comedy was shot in Dubai, with Atlantis the Palm figuring prominently in the proceedings.

Farah said: “Dubai is one of my most favourite cities, especially since we’re so emotionally connected to it, having shot Happy New Year over here. When we wrote the script there were six characters and the seventh character was definitely Dubai… and Atlantis the Palm. The film wouldn’t have been possible if we hadn’t been allowed to use this iconic place in the climax.”

Shah Rukh was also all praise for the city. “It’s not even a second home, it’s home. Dubai presents itself in the most beautiful way. It’s the new hub of the world. I feel a lot of love here. I’m so glad that Farah made this film.”

Deepika evidently enjoyed being the only girl in the ensemble cast. “Look at these men. I don’t think I’ve ever felt so special. It’s an amazing group, so protective, so caring. I’m going to miss all the attention that was given to me. They have involved me in everything that they’ve done -- even a guy thing like playing videogames. This film has been one of my most special experiences.”

On what drives him, Shah Rukh said: “The only thing that drives all of us is to be able to present to people some kind of happiness, satisfaction, and entertainment. Every film that you make, you always feel you can do a better job, and that’s what drives me. I want to be able to make more people happy the next time.”

Abhishek said he preferred a multi-starrer to a solo role. “You have a group of like-minded actors who get along; no one is trying to outshine the other, everyone respects each other’s space. You work collectively towards making a great film. That is always going to be more fun.”

An obvious display of emotion from Boman Irani broke the ice a bit, which left us wondering if it was the prospect of parting from each other post the film release that had put a dampener on the mood of the team.

“This is for all of you. I will love you and miss you,” he said, adding that Happy New Year was “not a cinematic but a human experience”.

Welcome Charlie: Shah Rukh Khan is Mr Mary Kom in Latest Happy New Year Teaser

HERE'S MORE OF THE BARE-CHESTED KING KHAN, PLAYING STREETFIGHTER CHARLIE, IN THE LATEST DROOLWORTHY TEASER FROM THE FILM.

For those who couldn't get enough of Shah Rukh Khan's chiseled body in the first look of Happy New Year, here's more of bare-chested King Khan - on a platter - playing streetfighter Charlie in the latest droolworthy teaser from the film.

In the video, Charlie makes mincemeat of his enemy in the fighter's ring and manages to look (and fight) like a Greek God through the entire nerve-racking, action packed sequences - amid dust, grime and drenching downpour. He reminds us of Priyanka Chopra's boxing sequences in Mary Kom.

Charlie believes in seizing opportunities and becoming a winner from a loser. "Duniya mein do tarah ke log hote hain - winners and losers, lekin zindagi har loser ko ek mauka zaroor deti hai jisme woh winner ban sakta hai," he reminds us at the end of it all.

A doting father and Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan wants his children to be whatever they wish to be in life without making any compromises to their health and happiness. He calls them 'good kids' and is happy that they are 'better human beings' than him.



Shah Rukh and his wife Gauri have three children - Aryan (17), Suhana (14) and AbRam (soon to turn one) born via surrogacy.

They can be whatever they wish to be," the 48-year-old actor told reporters here during Fathers' Day celebration at Kidzania Sunday.




The actor is happy that his children are growing up into better human beings.

Shah Rukh Khan vs Salman Khan: Happy New Year and Prem Ratan Dhan Payo this Diwali

Looks like two of the biggest superstars of Bollywood Salman and Shah Rukh have once again decided to lock horns for the release dates of their flicks. Their fans were relieved after the two decided to lock different dates for their biggies Kick and Happy New Year. But this time they will once again have to puzzle to pick our their favorite actor’s flick coming on date.

Initially there were no clashes in dates since Shah Rukh Khan much anticipated ‘Happy New Year’ was going to be celebrated alongside Diwali festival while Salman Khan’s ‘Kick’ was ready to hit on Eid. Now keeping these dates intact, if the latest developments are to be believed then Salman Khan’s third outing this year ‘Prem Ratan Dhan Payo’ will hinder SRK’s Diwali plans.

Cannes Loves the Khans, Maybe Even More Than Aishwarya

Kick, Happy New Year and Peekay were the top picks for Indian film buyers at Cannes 

Aishwarya Rai may be the star attraction at the red carpet, but it was three top notch Bollywood Khans -- Shah Rukh, Aamir and Salman - who dominated the film market at the ongoing 67th Cannes International Film Festival with buyers queuing up for their forthcoming films. 

SRK's Happy New Year, directed by Farah Khan and co-produced by Gauri Khan and Karim Morani, presented by Yash Raj Films; director Rajkumar Hirani's Peekay, which stars Aamir Khan in the lead and Sajid Nadiadwala's Salman-starrer directorial debut Kick, presented by Disney India-UTV and a few biopics were favourites with buyers and sales agents at the Cannes Film Market. 

These 'Khan' films are being readied for release in the last quarter of the year. 

Having said that, it is India's lone entry Titli, directed by Kanu Behl and produced by Dibabkar Banerjee, in the official Un Certain Regard Section, which is the talking point and also a top contender for the Palme d'Or this year. (Also Read: Titli Stems from Personal Experiences of Makers)

Anurag Kashyap, a festival favourite, did not make it to the festival, but his new film Bombay Velvet, which has Ranbir Kapoor, Anushka Sharma and Karan Johar in the lead roles, received a positive response for Fox Star Studios India. 

Besides the biggies, small production companies from India too managed to get a tight grip on the Cannes Film Market with the launch of a dozen new completed films and a few fresh production announcements. 

"It is a different India now than what I saw six to seven years back," said Hollywood-based Indian producer Ashok Amritraj, chairman, Hyde Park Entertainment. 

"The new Indian filmmakers have changed the face of Indian cinema and its global footprint," he added. 

The endeavours of Indian filmmakers also grabbed the attention of Bobby Bedi, managing director, Kaleidoscope Entertainment, a regular at the festival for over a decade, and he couldn't stop himself from saying a few good words for the new brigade of filmmakers. 

"This year the Indian producers and directors were very focused and matured than ever before," said Bedi, who announced his debut project as a director, Lajo, a big screen adaptation of Ismat Chugtai's short story, which was extremely controversial for its time. 

Lajo will be produced by T P Aggarwal of Star Entertainment Worldwide. Earlier, Mani Ratnam was supposed to helm Lajo with Aamir Khan in the lead role but it did not take off. 

Interestingly, biopics from India were also one of the attractions at the Cannes gala, the world's biggest gathering of film professionals from over 100 countries, in South of France.

Nanak Shah Fakir, a film produced by Harinder Sikka on the life and teachings of Guru Nanak, drew attention for its special effects and songs. 

"We have completed the film and we are confident that it will have a global impact because of the subject," said Sikka, who is corporate affairs director at Piramal Group, adding that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will launch the film in the US in July.

Initially, Oscar winner Resul Pookutty got involved with the project as a sound designer, but later he associated himself with Nanak Shah Fakir as a co-producer. For four days he pitched the film at the fest and made it a talking point. 

Mumbai-based Kriya Films launched their finished feature film The Answer, which tells the story of James Donald Walters, who became Swami Kriyananda, a disciple of Paramhamsa Yogananda who penned Autobiography of a Yogi.

"It is an epic motion picture that presents for the first time on the cinematic screen one of the most widely known and revered spiritual masters of our times - Paramhamsa Yogananda - in his own words through his direct disciple Swami Kriyananda," said producer Kaveeta Oberoi Kaul.

The Answer and Nanak Shah Fakir have aggressively positioned a new era of filmmaking from India at Cannes. European producer Pierre Assouline, who had produced and scripted Shaji Karun's Vanaprastham (1999), pitched his new biopic on Sant Tukaram.

From the commercial section, Viacom18 Motion Pictures aggressively pitched for Omung Kumar directed biopic Mary Kom and Shonali Bose's Margarita, With a Straw. While Priyanka Chopra plays the Olympic medallist in the former, the latter will see Kalki Koechlin as a girl suffering from cerebral palsy.

Yash Raj Films too presented its entire slate of films for international sales and distribution.

Overall, a good year for Indian films, at least at the Cannes Film Market.

Akshay, Rekha best dressed in showbiz: Deepika

Deepika Padukone is a style icon herself, but according to her actor Akshay Kumar is the best dressed man in the Hindi film industry while veteran actress Rekha is her favourite from among women.

Deepika has shared screen space with Akshay in "Chandni Chowk To China", "Housefull" and "Desi Boyz."

"The best dressed man (in the industry) is Akshay Kumar. It`s purely his effortlessness that makes him look the way he does. I think the fact that he has always been so athletic that really adds to the way he carries off clothes," the actress told reporters here Thursday.

Among women, Deepika named veteran actress Rekha as her top choice when it comes to dressing.

"She is someone who has always dressed the way she wants to. Trends have come and gone, but she stands by something she believes in and she has stood by that and I appreciate that," said the actress on the sidelines of the launch of a limited collection of Van Heusen designed by her, Thursday.

Deepika is currently busy shooting for Farah Khan`s "Happy New Year".

Shah Rukh Khan associates illness with truth of life

A recent injury on the sets of Happy New Year has left Shah Rukh Khan "strapped around the joints". The superstar has compared his condition to his philosophy of life.

"Been strapped around the joints last few days. Realised the truth of life through bandages. Not too tight not too loose...keeps it comfortable," Shah Rukh posted on the microblogging site Twitter on Wednesday.

However, for the actor, the "Not too tight not too loose" philosophy doesn't apply to hugs from his children.

"The not too loose or tight philosophy of life doesn't apply to these hugs. These ones tighter the better," he posted with a picture of him hugging his son Aryan and daughter Suhana.

Happy New Year is being directed by Farah Khan and will release this Diwali. The film also features Deepika Padukone, Abhishek Bachchan, Sonu Sood, Boman Irani and Vivaan Shah among others.
