Aditya Chopra took several audition sessions to get the perfect girl for his film Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi and finalized on a new face Anushka Sharma. Ghajini too has a new heroine Asin making her Bollywood debut opposite Aamir Khan. Asin is a popular actress in the south.Though Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi and Ghajini are spaced out by a couple of weeks, there are still lot of elements that get these films in common contention and can still prove as a potential threat to each other.Lets see which movie goes good and which goes “FLOP”.
The story of Ghajini. Sanjay Singhania (Aamir), is a rich businessman who owns a cellular phone company named Air Voice and the events surrounding his relationship with Kalpana (Asin).
Kalpana, an advertisement model goes around telling her advertisement crew that she is the love interest of Sanjay. She does this in spite of she having never met him and also goes to the extent of giving an interview about her relationship to a popular magazine. Sanjay happens to hear about this through the media and wants to settle scores with her. On his way, he catches a fleeting glimpse of a young woman (who happens to be Kalpana) helping handicapped children to cross a street. It is love at first sight for Sanjay. He moves on to confront Kalpana at her advertisement studio. He is pleasantly surprised to realize that she is the same helpful woman he saw a while ago. He chooses to hide the fact from her that he is Sanjay, calling himself as Manohar. Kalpana eventually falls in love with him.
Once, while on a train to Mumbai, Kalpana saves a group of young girls from abuse by a group of goons led by Lakshman (Pradeep Rawat). After a few days, the same goons come to Kalpana’s house in order to avenge their embarrassment. Incidentally, Sanjay arrives at the scene and fights off the goons, but during the ensuing fight, Kalpana is murdered. The irony showcased is that Kalpana never finds out that he is Sanjay. Lakshman then strikes the downcast Sanjay on his head severely with a metal rod. Sanjay survives the blow, but suffers from a short-term amnesia. At any given time, he does not remember anything that happened more than 15 minutes back, although he frequently has flashbacks of Kalpana’s murder. He determines to take revenge on those responsible for Kalpana’s death. The rest of the story is about how Sanjay, along with a medical college student Chitra (Jiah khan), goes about finding Lakshman and the goons.
Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi is the story of an ‘odd’ couple played by Shahrukh Khan and Anushka Sharma who find true love in the backdrop of a dance competition called “Dancing Jodi”.
Surinder Sahni (Shahrukh khan), a man working for Punjab Power, who falls in love with Taani (Anushka sharma) the flamboyant, fun-loving, vivacious girl for whom the whole world is her canvas and she paints her own life with the colours of rainbow all until unforeseen circumstances changes it all and brings them together. They get married and lead a not-so happy life due to huge age difference between Surinder and Taani. Taani, meanwhile, wants to participate in a reality dance show called “Dancing Jodi,” which is the main backdrop of the movie. The dance contest showcases couples of all races, colours, backgrounds and sexual preferences. Taani wants to take part for the show, but she is not able to due to her husband’s lack of fashion statement. Later on when Surinder finds out about his wife’s wish to participate in the reality dance show, he undergoes a major change. Taani keeps falling in love with her changed husband and the story goes on…
