Paheli review

too many songs, slow movie, with story lacking substance. if ghost cud enter into lacchi's husbands body and make him think /act otherwise why did he do that in the end and not in the beginning or proly thats the riddle. I didn't get the underlying motive of the movie : fairy tale ? story telling of unheard woos of sexual needs of women in a male dominated society ? or just a brightly colored mixture of songs and dance with some supernatural superstar shah rukh with moustache
All in all the expectation from Amol Palekar was more than this. Jesus Mr Shah Rukh even when u are a Ghost u can make people cry with that now-please-be-done-with-it smirk! Cud this "badshah" of bollywood deliver anything but sentimental monsoons?!?!

Pros: Rani looks beautiful, great custome work, valiant effort to depict the culture of Rajasthan in everything including clothes to trivial wall paintings.
