Dorathen Better Late Then Never

sttsanjay It is one of the better movies of Bollywood. This story of a reckless guy finally realizing his 'Lakshya' is inspiring. There are so many scenes to love in this film. The phone conversation between the Hrithik and his Dad, and the scene where Hrithik tells Pretty Zinta his 'Lakshya' were terrific. I have watched it multiple times but haven't gotten over it yet.

pari Re watched Lakshya after many years, calling it Hrithik most underrated film/Performance would be stating the obvious. No one else could have done justice to the character of Karan ,showcasing different facets of his personality as his character goes on this journey of self discovery, bringing forth smallest nuances in such understated way and not resorting to flashy troupes.Javed Akhtar creates engaging screenplay balancing each phase of Karan life and many dialogues in film deserve applause(Scenes talking of War from Soldier POV).Farhan has done Fantastic job balancing entertainment aspect without compromising on authenticity of Army background of film. It is indeed one of best films made on Indian Army.The Film BGM excellent too.Production design,Cinematography Art department,costumes all deserve praise. Only minor criticism of hair design remains(Preity both hairstyle & Hrithik in flashback portions)

leonardsimpson Lakshya revolves around Karan Shergil,who is a carefree college guy with a girlfriend.The character of Karan is somewhere like all of us, as he does not thinks too much about whats going on around him,does not have a very cordial relationship with his typical Indian father and gets constantly compared to his brother.The film is beautifully shot especially the scenes of kargil.Farhan Akhtar has done a very good job with this film,and for me this is his best work till date. Music of the film is good too but the background score is awesome.It gives you all the kicks and goosebumps in the combat and war scenes.Since the dialogues of the film are written by javed akhtar therefore the film keeps you gripped with the story line.Amitabh Bachchan is perfect,his awesome articulation of the amazing lines written by javed akhtar is unprecedented.Amitabh should have gotten a "best supporting actor"prize for this movie.Priety zinta and all other actors are fine too. Needless to mention about the fine work done by Hrithik Roshan.I know the movie is "defence aspirants' " must watch but i think everybody should watch this at least once. And yea since some part of the movie is shot in the IMA,so those scenes are priceless.

long-ford This film begins well and is interesting enough for the first hour. Unfortunately, the pace slackens as the film focuses on overlong attack sequences in the second half. It still remains watchable but is not as entertaining as Farhan Akhtar's first film 'Dil Chahta Hai'. Hrithik does a good job specially in the first half. He has an impressive dance number "Main Aisa Kyun". Preity doesn't share great chemistry with Hrithik and looks awkward as a reporter. Amitabh Bachchan has a short role and feels wasted. Tighter editing would have made this a much better film.Overall 5/10
