Ghajni 2008 is a very good film seen on a silver screen after a long time. The Film excells in production values with first rate cinematography. The Film contains quite tense moments with a dose of high octane violence and gore, but it does not repels the cine-goers as these elements form a basis in this revenge flick. The story line is not new but derived from some old films of the west and bollywood has produced many films on similar lines. However, the execution of subject is handled with utmost perfection that leaves a viewer spell-bound during the presentation at the cinema. The Film Ghajni showed Aamir Khans' one of his carriers' best performance with a muscular touch which is a delight to watch. I along with my friends had seen GHAJNI three months after its original release (dec2008) in India. The movie did a good bussiness as my friend owns a cinema hall in Karachi-Pakistan and he was of the of the view that film recovered its import cost in one go and in re-runs made two times did a fairly good turnover. It was breeze of fresh air to see people young and old visited at the four major cinemas where Ghajni was released.
This film could be stated at its best in terms of music, cinematography and sound effects. For us what has promted me / us to see it again was asin only. It is after a long time a bollywood actress touched our hearts. THE FILM IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED FOR ALL WHO WISH SEE A GOOD ACTION THRILLER WITH A DECENT ROMANCE FREE FROM VULGARITY OF ANY SORT. oN A SCALE OF ONE TO 10 IT SHOULD MERIT 9.1/10---eXCELLENT-----sYED tAIMUR ALI AND FRIENDS - kARACHI/PAKISTAN

Gajhini ,a name which symbolizes the Path Breaking Cinematic Achiever of the year and of all times, is a cinematic Genius in it’s own Right. Yet I would beg to differ on certain points which makes it short on making the Most of the Sources. Why? Here is the answer
Story and Screenplay : Well. Mr. Murugadoss didn’t have to do much for this as “Memento “ would have already provided the help Needed. Come on, If you are adopting (Here I mean COPY) the Story and Screenplay then give the original Writers some credit by Displaying their names in the Credits… The Story is Copy of the French Hollywood Flick “Memento”.so One Star for finding such a movie to copy. Screenplay is good and bad Simultaneously coz the Story makes it look good but the Length of the scenes makes it look really awful.
Direction : A.R. Murugadosss must have thought Priyadarshan makes huge money out of making the tamil versions of their movie into hindi and casting Who’s who of Bollywood. But He failed to make an impact as to Originality. Some of the Scenes are masterfully Presented but overall., Direction Looses Strength in terms of the Movie has been Given a Typical South Indian Look which makes it hard to Swallow.
Cast and Performance : Well the Most Pathetic Part of the Movie was It’s Casting Excepting the Case of Aamir Khan.and Jiya Khan And to an extent Asin. Pradip Rawat is Horrible as the central Character of Ghajini..Khalid as Aamir’s manager looks a bit Odd in terms of Reality. Tinu Anad makes a good Impact as Asin’s boss. Who came up with an idea of casting That Inspector as the Inspactor in the Movie?... he is full of typically south masal Acting. He makes the Movie So UN REAL yaar. I wished if I had got a chance I would have killed him if didn’t meet with an accident. :D
But Aamir tells the world at large why he is known as “The Perfectionist”. He delivers Career Best Performance in the Movie. Jiya Khan Looks Authentic as the Medical Student except in the A Song.
Asin is photogenic but she clearly gives the image that she is new to the world of Authentic acting.
Music : Well A R Rahman Disappoints in terms of totality. Only Two of the songs (Behka and Kaise Mujhe) of the entire Album sounds like Composed by the magician Known as Rahman. Gujariush might have become the Chart Toppper but it is Not Rahman’s Music.
Technicals : Well if you look at technicals overall. The Movie Gives a Nice and Easy Hollywood Flick Looks. But some of the Ares could have been Better. Back Ground Music was Too Lousy. Sometimes it goes into ears like Train is passing through your Head. Editing is Superb. Action Sequences Although look a bit over ambitious but are spectacular. Cinematography is Excellent.
Nonw the Best Part of the Movie was…… Guess??? Well it’s not Aamir Khan. It’s Rahul and Himanshu Nanda, for H R Enterprise. Surprised?... wel they were the publicity Designers of the Movie. And lemme tell you no one would have done the marketing like this movie was Promoted in the entire year. Aamir had to come right down on the Streets and Cut Peoples’ Hair. How Much you can Bend yaar?.. And Guess What?.. the strategy Worked. The Movie Got the Biggest Opening anyone could ever imagine. And still doing Business. It has Broken all the Records so far the Box Office returns are concerned. But Personally I didn’t like the movie that Much.
So.. Three Stars For me. One Star Entirely Goes to H R Enterprise for marketing the Movie. One is For Aamir and the Rest Goes to other technical Crew.
Ghajani is a overall good moview and stands out for the perfromances of Aamir Khan and Asin!Though the movie has lot of violence and perhaps could have been shortened to be more effective!
hiiiiiiiiiiii........it's a beautiful movie ! ! ! I like this movie & all songs.I loved this movie so much.............. and i love my fovorite actress asin.......all world to i like asin.i love asin...............i love u soooooooooooo much.

Ghajini...first i thought to let it go...but aftr seeing it...i was amazed...a superb movie...marvelously shot...nd catchy movie...Asin is just fantastic....
i rate it 4 stars..****
Its a mainstream action masala. Aamir is known to make sensible movies such as RDB, TZP an Lagaan. He doesnt need to do what Shahrukh and Akshay always do.
