The Review of Bollywood Movie : Dostana

The one thing that bonds not just the B-town actors but also the humans all over is ‘Friendship’. And this Hindi movie called ‘Dostana’, which incidentally is also Bollywood's Midas Touch Man Karan Johar's new venture.

The movie stars John Abraham and Abhishek Bachchan and the vivacious Priyanka Chopra. The movie is to be directed by his assistant Tarun Mansukhani. The story is set in the gorgeous city of Miami.

No fashion brands : It's out. The look for Dostana, the fun-packed romcom about three friends is out and the three actors in the lead - Abhishek Bachchan, John Abraham and Priyanka Chopra are sporting the Yankee look.

The movie is set in urban America. The look, created by Aki Narula and Manish Malhotra, will be light and summery in keeping with the lighthearted tone of the film.

Unlike ‘Kuch Kuch Hota Hai’, ‘Kal Ho Naa Ho’ and ‘Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna’, wherein designer brands such as Tommy Hilfiger and Louis Vinton made their presence felt but there are no heavyweight fashion brands starring in this movie....

The gay-caution : The promos of ‘Dostana’ makes one believe that it's the story of a gay couple – ‘Jo Bhi’ (John - Abhishek), but the director is going around saying it's only about friendship and nothing else.

There's a lot of curiosity and it is confusing movie goers by showing the twosome as a pair of gays walking hand-in-hand on Miami beaches. It has also been speculated to be India's first film which advertises gay sexuality openly.

The film shot in Miami has a lot of skin show by John (he's developed a super sexy bod), Priyanka Chopra as well as Bobby Deol and Shilpa Shetty. Abhishek claims to be the attitude of the film!

John & Abhishek behaving like proper gays, there's bound to be a lot of confusion. He tries to make the picture clear about the Karan Johar production, but they (Abhi and John) don't behave as gay.

They behave as normal friends. In fact, gays never behave in any particular way. Their behaviour is not different from all of us. It's our own perception about gays that makes us think that they behave in a particular way.
Bollywood has made films on a variety of subjects, but no films have been made on gay sexuality till now. Everyone specially the younger generation jokes about gay, but it’s not about gay sexuality. It's basically about friendship & its ups & downs.

Synopsis :Sameer (Abhishek) and Kunal (John) are turned down for an apartment because the landlady doesn't want two strapping young men to corrupt her young sexy niece Neha (Priyanka Chopra).

They go to plan 'G' - they pretend to be 'Gay' to secure the apartment. All is well till they meet the sexy siren Neha and thus begins a journey of fun frolic and a test of friendship like never before.

When Neha's boss Abhimanyu (Bobby Deol) enters the fray as the third contender for her affections, it gets even hotter under everyone's vests and bikinis and the boys get down and dirty in sunny Miami.

Shilpa was left without clothes: Bollywood’s lanky lass Shilpa Shetty had a horrendous time while she was on her way to Miami to shoot a song for Karan Johar’s production ‘Dostana’.
The actress was flying with her staff from Mumbai to Miami when, to her utter disbelief, all her luggage comprising seven suitcases, went missing at the flight’s stopover at London airport.

All of Shilpa’s belongings, her clothes, including the essential ones, her cosmetics, and fashion accessories were in the bag. So the actress was left with nothing more in her possession than just her handbag.

Since the authorities could not locate the luggage, Shilpa had no other option but to buy herself new clothes and cosmetics for her schedule in Miami.

Luckily, she did not carry her costume for the song (designed by Manish Malhotra ) in her luggage. Shilpa shot the song on Miami beaches in the bikinis by Malhotra.

The song comes at the beginning of the film after which Shilpa introduces the characters played by Abhishek Bachchan, John Abraham and Priyanka Chopra.
