Only if they had changed one letter in the title...

Yes, It was literally shi of Theseus. Yes, I said it. Now if you have not formed your opinion about me being a Salman or Shahrukh fan, and if you are still reading this, well mate, you've got a really open mind.

Now lets get back to this horrible horrible movie. I can write about this movie's flaws longer than the script it had, but still I will try to contain myself in the following points.

1. Many characters seem to be reading their dialogs in a very irritating monotone. Like that photographer's boyfriend, Charvak guy and God save me from the acting of the protagonist of the third story and his translator friend.

2. BS concept. A blind photographer, seriously?!! I guess we are not far from a deaf musician and a retard genius, are we? That saint, whose conviction crumbles in one death scare, that imaginary sect that he followed, didn't seem to have much point in it. Seemed just like self styled god-man, playing activists.

3. And the BIGGEST FLAW....... ONE DIMENSIONAL CHARACTERS. Totally one dimensional characters, and I think that is the folly of men, we always think that people poorer than us are that one dimensional, don't we? That was quite lack of insight for a director who wanted to make an art movie.

4. Besides that, I could have stayed home, and spared myself from watching in detail a man soiling his bed and cleaning it, and a bed ridden women pissing in a pot.

Guys forgive me, but life is complex, and the questions of existence and reasons are not easy. We can and should ponder on them everyday and form our own opinions. But I guess it is just easier to stay ignorant forever and just be amazed by these kind of substandard pretentious movies.
