To me, this movie is perfection.
Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful
An action-packed slog
Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
This movie is basically the Bollywood version of She's the Man with Channing Tatum and Amanda Bynes. Your counterparts in those roles are Shahid Kapoor and Rani Murkherji respectively. The movie is pretty funny - the cheesy slapstick comedy that is trademarked Bollywood. I really enjoyed all the past movie references that occur throughout the film in both the dialogue and background movie choices, it really gave the impression that the movie wasn't a movie but actually a real life situation - which it is - but while never getting too serious. There were some sub plots that felt neglected and incomplete. But since this movie is almost 3 hours long you can get over that and just make your own endings for them. Overall a very enjoyable Bollywood style film.
I, like some others, don't understand the poor ratings the movie has received here on IMDb. I am also a bit frustrated at how it's called a poor copy of American "She's the man". For anyone who's read some Japanese comics, it's obvious that "She's the man" is more copy of manga titles such as "Girl got game" and "Boku ni natta watashi" than Dil Bole Hadippa is a copy of She's the man. I love gender bender stories and have read and watched a lot, but I must say that Dil Bole Hadippa is one of my favorites so far. Most of all I liked the absence of any over the top triangle drama that almost always come with this type of story. I was a bit puzzled by Rohan's extreme reaction when Veera was first exposed to him, but other than that, I thoroughly enjoyed the film. As a loyalist of gender bender plots - I say this is a must see.
Yash & Aditya Chopra are Legends in their own right. They have made some of Bollywood's finest films. But when you see their latest flick 'Dil Bole Hadippa', which has been produced by them... You actually sit and think is this film really produced by these guys? Being a fan of both, I am hugely disappointed.Hollywood flick 'She's The Man' vs 'Dil Bole Hadippa'... who wins? Hadipaa would lose hands down! I would love to ask Anurag Singh one simple question? How did you okay this script, and what did you like about it? Shahid still has a SRK hang-up. 'Kaminey' was a milestone, right? Watch him in 'Dil Bole Hadippa' and you'll be disheartened. Rani tries hard, it's really sad to see a talented actress like being reduced to such roles and films. Anupam Kher and Dalip Tahil have nothing to do.Those 3 stars are only and only for Sherlyn Chopra. She looks hot throughout.
