DON (2006) (2006)

Amitabh Bachchan starrer Don's remake is a tough job and more so if a few changes are also made to the script. SRK simply wanted to give the new generation a chance to see the classic in a new avatar. Don [Shah Rukh Khan] is the head of a mafia and is involved in drug trafficking between Asia and Europe, having headquarters in Kuala Lumpur. The cartel is headed by Singhania [Rajesh Khattar], and all the business is managed by Don. An Indian officer, D'Silva [Boman Irani] swears to put an end to them both! D'Silva accidentally meets a lookalike of Don, named Vijay in the streets of Mumbai. D'Silva trains him to infiltrate the cartel and a great opportunity lands in D'Silva's lap when he captures a wounded Don. D'Silva puts his plan into action and Vijay takes over as Don unknown even in his own department. He gives D'Silva loads of information to bring the organization down. But fate has other plans as D'Silva is killed during a raid and now no one knows that Vijay is not Don. In an attempt to prove his innocence he tells the cops in front of the other mafia members that he is an imposter but no one believes him. Vijay manages to escape and now is looking for evidence. Roma [Priyanka Chopra] who had joined the gang to kill Don helps him as she knows he is Vijay and so does the software expert Jasjit [Arjun Rampal] who's kids Vijay had saved. The film is stylish, exciting and thrilling but only 'till interval. Then it is very slow. The songs seem forced and the characters are not given enough depth so the film comes across as glossy, visually appealing but with no soul. One keeps thinking of the original version. Director Farhan Akhtar even changes the end giving it a twist the film didn't need. Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy's music is strictly functional. The action scenes are superb. Shah Rukh Khan delivers very well, enacting the evil character and the innocent one with flourish. Priyanka Chopra looks pretty but hardly has much to do role wise. Arjun Rampal's character could've been better and he is okay in the small role. Kareena Kapoor's cameo is cool. Isha Koppikar is alright. Boman Irani is incredible but Om Puri is wasted. Don is a bit disappointing but the masses just might like it.
