I had the most unfortunate opportunity to go watch RGV's with a couple of friends(got dragged in for the movie due to peer pressure, so its technically not my fault I wasted money on that dimwitted movie) Big B's face was screwed up the entire movie as if someone was actually using a tweezer to pluck out hair by hair from his leg..or ahem elsewhere..Urmila seriously needs to consider retirement if she going to continue dancing with her beer belly glaring into the camera..and why did they make Lal's beard look so artificial beats me. I wonder if Nisha Kothari's parents are still alive after all that she has done in the film.
And as for the metaphorical representation of the movie's rating- As painful as a rectal abscess. I atleast had a laugh through Godzilla dubbed in malayalam. Now Im considering dying my hair..the movie caused me premature greying.
Thanks for posting regularly:)

This 'Aag' faded without a flame like a fart in the wind... It had its share of stink for a while and then... peace be with the victims...

It is pathetic and utter rubbish all the way. And had to see another couple of movies to get over the effect... but that sick feeling is still there. I am shocked at what a powerful pack of actors like AB and Mohanlal with a serious actor like Ajay Devgan have delivered. And don't even ask why everyone always keeps referring to America, Iraq... dialogues are pathetic... and the sequences.. only good part is the mehbooba song with Abhishek Bachhan.. and Urmila Matondkar. but no saving graces for this Ram Gopal Verma ki Aag aka Ramu ke Sholay. No wonder they were not allowed to use anything of the original sholay.. name, charcaters, songs (except for Amitabh and Sachin in different roles). Amitabh Bacchan should soon do something really good so that public can get over Babban.. yikkes

It was as painful as - the tooth extraction where the dentist has forgotten to refill his barrell of nitrous - the clumsy tango partner's pointy heels - the slap that you got when you proposed for the first time in life

Howdy Blogrolled here from sreejith's blog. My friends threatened to pull out all the hair from my head one by one when I suggested we go see the movie. What do I say? I love my hair.

It was as painful as - watching all the below-100 movies of IMDB back-to-back - Monday morning blues, except that they are not blues, but like rainbow colors, added with the after-effects of the next-table-neighbor's last night's dinner that had "rajma" and mooli-k-parathe(got the first clue in the stuffed elevator!!) and exponentiated by the bad mood of the half bald, middle aged boss whose wife definitely denied him some naughty favors the last night !!!
ps:The movie would have been better of named as "RGV ke aaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

Aag is as bad as "one finding out 10 yrs into his marriage that, the woman whom you married is a male".
the abstraction being: you got lured into it with a lot of promises, 10 yrs: --> interval woman->man : the movie promised so much, but turned out to be a damp squib, that left u hanging at your wits end.
maan... was that movie boring, or is my life so interesting? thatz the question!

take your pick...
as bad as a one-legged man in an ass-kicking contest (ok, I filched that from Stephen King!)
or
as bad as Aleem Dar's decision-making skills
or
as bad as Aaj-Tak's coverage of any "news-worthy" event
or
as bad as "Nishabd"

I would not even bother wasting my time to think and list out metaphors - of the many wtf moments, there were quite a few quintessential wtf moments which were pukeable to say the least...we just took mercy on the theater owner!!!

It should have been called "Bhaag" instead of "Aag"!!! If the original sholay took hindi cinema to new heights, then this one too it to new depths!!!

Hey Sidin macha!
Nice set of issues.
By the way, Chartered accountants arent that 'uncool' these days, yours truly belonging to this genre.
The Gulf kaaaran marriage search was superb! Thank God that you didnt have to go through the same rigmarole to find your missus!
