“Individually, we are one drop. Together, we are an ocean.”

I wanted to watch this movie called ‘Halla Bol’ the meaning literal would be to barge in kind of ;) ! The reason to watch because my friend said he is writing this movie and another reason to watch is for Ajay Devgan the actor, as I find him a versatile actor who has proven himself in all characters whether it’s a action hero, romantic or even a negative role he has excelled well.

"Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving" ~ Albert Einstein

‘Halla Bol’ is kind of street play that one do to take the message to the mass and make bring awareness among the masses about the social aspects or any other matter which will benefit the people. Mostly these are volunteered by non-profit organizations.

“Grab your coat, and get your hat, Leave your worry on the doorstep Just direct your feet, To the sunny side of the street.” ~ Dorothy Fields
The beginning of the movie was kind of okay and I was happy to see my friend playing a small role in it which was a surprise.. lol!
But as the movie progresses, it takes all your attention and I would say worth watching it.
It speaks about telling truth, standing for justice no matter whether its for you or your neighbor and above all the fundamental aspect that people bring in specially the political parties who try to benefit by bringing religion into it …I was totally amazed that they tried to attach multiple aspects and brought justice to though it was tough in the beginning as we all know straight path never takes you to the destination right away but yes, it will some day some time … lol!

“The whole history of the world is summed up in the fact that, when nations are strong, they are not always just, and when they wish to be just, they are no longer strong.” ~ Winston Churchill

At places the heroine Vidya Balan brings the strong stand of herself being in the movie which I liked it very much!
The entire movie is of Ajay Devgan who has done a good job and not to disregard the great actor and father of Shahid Kapoor – Pankaj Kapoor. He is too good.
I didn’t like the character that plays the political leader as Gaikwad – felt he was trying his best to act like Nana Patekar and yet he was not successful in doing so …this is what I felt it could be wrong.

“Life's like a play; it's not the length but the excellence of the acting that matters”

At the end it’s for the people of the country to make the decision and do justice. One should not be mere a spectator of any crime as you also become a part of that sin.

“When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight.” ~ Khalil Gibran
