Mumbai, Oct 24: As the much-lauded animation co-production between Walt Disney Pictures and Yash Raj Films - ‘Roadside Romeo’ hits screens, it’s time to gear up and watch B-town’s most celebrated couple Saif and his Bebo set off the romantic sparks in their doggie avatars.
With Saif playing the much-sophisticated dog and Kareena the sassy street item female dog, ‘Roadside Romeo’ is one recommended watch this weekend.
However, if you are the typical masala flick buff, who wards off animation flicks as mere kids’ affair, let us enlighten you with the story line of the flick that seems to have every element that goes into the making of a Bollywood blockbuster.
The film has lovers, a villain and great humour - the ultimate essentials for a Bollywood caper.
The movie is the story of Romeo (Saif Ali Khan) the quintessential lover dog, who has everything going for him. A palatial mansion to stay in, hot chicks to party with, money to splurge and etc. But one bad day in the dog’s life and everything goes wrong with Romeo as the family that he is staying with decides to abandon him after they move to a new house. Romeo is left alone in the big bad mean street world.
It’s there that he encounters real life problems. The street dogs show their mean streak to him. But he has the knack of smooth talking and he soon makes friends with them. Soon enough he bumps into the love of his life, Laila (Kareena) who happens to be a nightclub performer. Besides falling in love, the biggest mistake Romeo commits is having rubbed Charlie Anna (the Don) the wrong way. With a villain to combat and love to win over, the film is all Romeo and tons of heart.
