To the director Mr Advani: 'It does not require talent to be stupid'


This film is basically just stupid. There is no other word to describe it. I think Mr Advani thought by just being really random, he would entertain; stupidity is not entertaining. It is distasteful.

We do not want to see retarded heroes. Something Akshay Kumar is doing far too much lately, seriously putting me off watching any of his new flms. Playing a retard requires no talent.

Decide what film you want to make - serious, dramatic, comic, romantic. Stick to the theme. This film goes from incredibly slapstick comedy, to romantic, to dramatic, to incredibly slapstick comedy again, to dramatic. I could not believe that after Siddhu's father is killed in the film, that Siddhu was still doing comedy after it.

Kal Ho No Ho required talent and many of us noticed Advani. CC2C required no talent at all, it is just stupid. Please no more films like this.

And a general note to Bollywood: Stop all the masti, and actually make a serious film. There is no reason why CC2C could not have been a serious film.
I don't know whats wrong with Indians, but they never seem to take anything seriously, it's all a big joke to them.
