Wow! Such a good movie.

From my favorite movies..

Charming and brutal

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

ACTOR is exceptional as a young PUNJABI guy. The movie is as great as its script, story and dialog. The movie captures the ethical dilemma of a young entrant entering the corrupt world of selling. The protagonist takes the lead out of the compromise of values and creates his own organization with ethics and values. He shows that for your long term sustainability one must be honest with his work and people he is working with. The dialog were well written by Mr. Sahni. One of my favorites is "do business but don't become businessman". Some might not like it not being like a typical Bollywood movie melodrama but still it has something for everyone - a great lesson - don't be hypocrite. I HAVE STARTED FINDING OUT GREAT ULTIMATE MOVIES THROUGH FLICKSTREE.COM AND IT ALSO HELPS TO FIND OUT WHERE TO WATCH THESE GREAT MOVIES. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Ranbir Kapoor's effort to move out of his stereotypes and believe in a smooth low glamour script has produced a movie which would be watched by you again and again. The screenplay is simple yet something which one could romanticize in our own office space. The young aspiring India, wants to engage in entrepreneurship and has ideas. One such aspirant is Ranbir. Movie is about his move to open a start up in an age where start-ups were believed to be suicidal. And the moment you would open one up, it would be annexed by a bigger firm. The screenplay treads their journey amidst suspicion, logistics of opening up a new firm and trying to avoid being annexed by the big fish. The casting is fresh and grounded to the roles demanded of them. Mukseh Bhatt(the peon and the partner), Naveen Kaushik (the marketing head aka Nitin Rathore) have all essayed their roles neatly. And this film deserves an audience. It clings on to an easy aspiring Indian middle class and is fit for family as well as friends. I give it an 8 out of 10.Its worth the effort to sit back and watch Rocket Singh in action!

Just like Shimmit Amin's past 2 ventures, Rocket Singh starts as a colorless, bland film. However, once one starts to go deep into the narrative, the viewer sees different colors. Rocket Singh is unconventional, yet very conventional and that's what works about it! Harpreet Singh Bedi, just graduated from college with barely passing grades, is applying for a job as a salesman at AYS. He gets the job, but his naive nature gets him into trouble and fired from the company. This leads him to venture into his own company as a competitor of the same company that fired him. A section of viewers not aware of the business/sales world may not relate to the idea of the movie. Still, it's a very gripping screenplay. Some scenes to look out for:Harpreet's first interview scene - Harpreet's confrontation scenes with Puri - Harpreet's plan to compete with AYS - ClimaxMusic is disappointing and songs weren't needed. Writing is top notch and Jaideep Sahni's dialogues are intelligent and brilliant.Shimit Amin's direction is excellent of course.Ranbir Kapoor is brilliant as the naive Harpreet Bedi. The film belongs to him.Overall, a great experience and inspirational movie.

"Rocket Singh: Salesman of the Year" is a very enjoyable film--and one that has some great lessons for the business world...if they cared to learn them. The film begins with Harpreet Singh Bedi (Ranbir Kapoor) graduating from college and realizing that with poor grades, he isn't qualified for being an executive. So, he gets a job in sales--but he's like a lion among the wolves. The computer company where he works is cold and cut-throat-- and he needs to learn the art of bribes and half-truths to make it there. But he's basically a good guy at heart and it's soon apparent he'll soon get fired--as he's too good. Then he comes up with an idea--to beat his own company by forming a NEW company, Rocket Sales. Rocket Sales is dedicated to being honest, providing a product with far less markup and providing 24-hour service. Not surprisingly, clients LOVE getting what they pay for and Singh's such a nice guy, the company soon takes off. However, here's the kicker--now Singh has several employees--most of which STILL work for the old company and work for Rocket Sales on the side.There's much more to the film than this, but what I liked was the film's heart and the many lessons it COULD use to their own betterment. However, bribes (especially in certain parts of the world--where it's routine), lying to customers and providing crappy service are just EASIER and probably will continue to be the norm. However, I can think of a couple huge computer companies that are now MUCH smaller--as a result of their standards. We can only hope they watch this film. In the meantime, however, it's great fun and is well worth your time.Also, just to let you know--the usual song and dance numbers you'll find in modern Indian films are not in this one. There are some musical interludes but the characters themselves neither sing nor dance during these.
