Love Aaj Kal -2 Long

The movie has lessons- for the film maker and the lead characters.

1. If you make a long movie (defined as anything over 2 hours today), please watch Sholay before you make it. Learn the tricks. Even Amar Akbar Anthony will do, but Sholay is better.

2. If all that the hero and heroine are going to do is vacillate, show them playing "Will she, will she not?" or its equivalent, "Will he, will he not?" More entertaining, any day.

3. Make sure the lead characters enrol for an MBA and learn decision-making skills. If not an MBA, at least a short term training program- an MDP.

4. There is a reason why Randeep Hooda does not get meaty roles. Respect that.

5. Don't copy tunes from Nagin starring Vyjayanthimala. (This is for Preetam)

Verdict? Go watch Life in a Metro. It also had music by Preetam. Much better music, and a better story too.
