Yuvraj Movie Review

Yuvraj Movie ReviewMovie Review: Yuvraj; Starring: Anil Kapoor, Salman Khan, Zayed Khan, Katrina Kaif and Boman Irani; Director:  Subhash Ghai; Rating: 2.5 out of 5*; Yuvvraaj: Is an average entertainer

Yuvvraaj basically begins as the story of Deven Yuvraaj (Salman) who is madly in love with Anushka (Katrina). He is a chorus singer where and she is a cello player in a musical group based in Prague. Her rich dad Mr. Banton (Boman) is completely against marrying her off to Deven given his poor financial condition and tormenting past. Deven is the son of a London based multi billionaire, Yogendra Yuvraaj (Javed Sheikh) who was thrown out of the house by him for beating up his dim-wit older step brother, Gyanesh (Anil) when young. As Banton fixes his daughter’s engagement within a rich family, Deven comes to know about his father’s death and instead of getting sad becomes very happy. He gets under the impression that now he will be inherit a part of his late father’s huge empire. In excitement he enters into a contract with Banton that within 40 days if he does not become a billionaire then he can marry of his daughter to someone else. But as Deven reaches his ancestral home, destiny has other plans. His youngest brother, Danny (Zayed) a spoilt rich brat is busy living life in the fast lane with little care about his older brother Gyanesh. As their dead father’s will is opened by their old trusted lawyer, Sikander Mirza (Mithun Chakravorty) they all get a shock of their life to learn that almost the entire property is given to the autistic Gyanesh with just peanuts left for Danny and Deven and some other relatives who have been hanging around with them with a hope of a bigger pie for themselves. Desperate, both Danny and Deven unwillingly join hands to cheat their innocent older brother. As a part of his plan, Deven overnight takes Gyanesh back to Prague. Gyanesh gets exposed to his only passion in life – Music all thanks to Anushka. What happens after that forms rest of the film.

The basic premise of the film is nice with music well entwined into as a character in itself. But where the film falters is the narrative. Ghai has been a master storyteller in the past but here he somehow fails to hold your attention in the first half. Things move at a snails pace and not entirely convincingly. Anil Kapoor’s character is the most important character of the film but barring the last few reels it has not been handled well. Also what was the need of those 80s style plotting relatives in a film like this? The second half however has a lot of drama in store and some really touching moments like those interactions between Anil and Salman in Prague and also when Zayed joins them. But then again the impact is not as much it could have been because suddenly the film gains too much pace. The cinematography by Kabir Lal is marvelous whereas Omung Kumar’s set designs are absolutely out of this world. Being a musical, much was expected from A.R. Rahman but barring Tu Meri Dost Hain and Mastam Mastam none of the numbers are really great. But one must hand it to Ghai for mind blowing picturisations of them all.

Amongst the actors, Anil Kapoor impresses the most with his innocent act. Salman does well but is badly presented at times with inconsistencies in hair style and clothes. Katrina manages to hold her own in the crowd of actors. She never looked so beautiful before. Zayed suits his part perfectly. Boman does well.

Though the film doesn’t entirely disappoint, it remains an average entertainer. Watch it for some vintage Ghai moments if you want to.

  8. bahut hi bakbas movie hai insab ne paise khyae hain
    sar dard kar jayega

  9. YUVRAAJ……BIGGEST FLOP OF THE YEAR …NO AWARDS…SALMAN WAS GOOD INGOD TUSSI GR8 HO”…BUT THIS MOVIE TOOOOO PATHETIC….WORTH A MISS…PEOPLE LEFT IN INTERMISSION

  10. BIGGEST FLOP EVER…..MOVIE SUCKS…SALMAN SUCKS…NO STORY NOTHIN SPECIAL….WILL SURELY BREAK RGVS “AAG” MOVIES RECORD OF BEING THE BIG FLOP.

  11. yuvraaj total dispointed movie but in terms of crafting and cinemetography movie is gud. we can support only three charachter mithun, anil, boman

  12. Disgusting!!! All d k-serials combined in a movie. Kuvraaj could have been a better name. Lol. Only saving grace is d music & the picturization of the songs.

  13. i havent seen this movie yet.but i think this movie will be a good one coz i love kareena

  14. Yuvraj ……..who tell that yuvraj film is flop they are sick bcoz they have no sence about film.they like govinda type film, raaz type film..they like those film which show ***, action, etc.
    ….i agree that speed of this film is slow but message of film is good and ghai shab is success to convey the megs…. i like this film….i give three star..

    thanx

  15. PATHETIC MOVIE…………….. Hw in d World One Can Like This Stuff………God Help……….

  16. nothing to say abt sallu bhai

  17. not bad it was just average movie, picturization was well but film story was worst. Anil kapoor performed well, Salman just ok, and zeyad khan can you please leave film industry, you can’t act properly you r completely overacted. You are a king of flops. As a whole this movie could not get box office success and flop chances are too high.

  18. i didnt watch this movie but i hope …it will b good …..

  19. nice salamn khan

  20. NOT BAD.ANIL KAPOOR IS ROCKING. KAIT IS MOVING ANGEL.ANOTHER BAD LUCK FOR GHAI

  21. itz a an amazin movie kasam lved the songs i just came back from da cinema but must admit its a great movie wid nice songs made me cry!!!! hmmmmmmmmmmmm

  22. The movie was a Flop, Ghai must have been high on drugs to make this kind of multistar flop. total waste of time, why didn’t he just make a musical album instead of putting the audience thru a 3 hour drag

  23. The biggest flop of the year … I think subash guy has lost it …he should no longer direct movies …he has not directed a good movie after Taal… he thinks after making some good movies in his early part fo the career he has become some kinda great director and comes up with ****** movies. He thinks ppl still watch those green scenes which looks beautiful …but somebody remind him that ppl now want some story and a copy of the some previous ones… i Think this movie was a copy of Taxi No. 9211.

  24. Good points ::

    Good Cinematography,

    katrina looking good as a damsel

    Sober, clean, family film,

    no fijool actions, no comedy (?) or no dble meaning dialects

    pleasant foreign land shooting

    A way better than dostana, drona, Chamku, emi, or other recent garbage movie

    Bad parts::

    Somehow the film ended so quickly and suddenly , n’ unexpectadly, and movie seems uncomplete.

    Not ANY better at all than other Ghai movies like
    Ram lakhan, hero, saudaagar, taal, pardesh.. etc

    there is no substance in the story at all.

    Could had added little comedy in it, if wished.

    Could had added more turning points in story.

    Could have made it a little better if Ghai had watched,
    Kal ho na a ho, Kuchh kuchh hota hai, Kabhi Khushi,,, etc movies and had studied those.

    Anil has acted little better than salmaan n’ zayed.
    Boman has failed in comedy.

    Movie is average - Ok. - Just a pleasant- family film in today’s time.

  25. biggest flop of the year
    paisa barbaad gaya
    kahani boring hai
    sallu ne acting achchiu nahi ki

  26. sallu ki ek aur flop

  27. hey guys,

  46. its goooood movie

  47. “YUVRAJ” ITS A BEAUTIFUL FLAWLESS MOVIE. MADE IN A OLD ENGLISH CLASSICAL WAY, THE MOVIE IS WORTH WATCHING. A VERY NEAT AND CLEAN MOVIE. THE MORAL OF THE STORY IS SO VERY TRUE. K. KAIF LOOKS BEAUTIFUL AS A VIOLINIST. THE TROOP OF MUSICIANS SHOWN IS SO VERY PROFFESSIONAL AND REAL. KEEP IT UP MR. GHAI.

  48. I think the people who hav written it as a flop aur bakwash r fund of *** movies of Imraan Hashmi & others .

    When u guys will woke up ……..

    The time has come

  49. very dumb movie.. ghai must be high or ill… katrina looked not as nice as usual.. salman is old and needs to come to terms with that… zayed was hot.. anil was fab.. boman was irritating.. the rest were ok
