Yuvvraaj Movie Review:
Yuvvraaj starts as the story of Deven (Salman Khan in his anglicized accent), a chorus singer.
in Prague. Love is literally in the air as he starts floating around rainbows (without any flying colours) while dreaming of marrying an eternally cello-playing Anushkha (Katrina Kaif). The age-old aamir-ladki garib-ladka formula is thrown into picture with the girl's father objecting to their marriage. There is a strong Munnbhai MBBS hangover to the plot with Boman Irani posing as the father and moreover playing a doctor in the laughter-therapy mode.
As characteristic to Bollywood heroes, Deven actually happens to be from an affluent family who he left behind long back. His billionaire father is now dead and Deven is only happy about the fact as he approaches his family to seek his share of property. From hereon the story deviates to the 80s jaydaad-ki-ladaai as you are introduced to endless characters who want their share from the ancestral assets. You are familiarized with a Sooraj Barjatya kind of unkind family, prominent amongst which is a blue-lens malicious mamaji and a perpetually cleavage-popping bhabhiji.
The family also comprises of two brothers of Deven. Danny (Zayed Khan) is a spoilt brat. Gyanesh (Anil Kapoor) is mentally challenged. And the father chooses to assign his prime property to the latter. Consequently characterless people take charge as they want less characters in the property share.
The script by antique writers Sachin Bhowmick and Kamlesh Pandey has a dated feel and lacks any sort of innovation in storytelling or intelligence in screenplay structure. Subhash Ghai's worn-out direction only makes the proceedings worse and wearisome. The scenes are jumbled with continuity lapses and the dialogues range from clichéd to preposterous. Only Salman Khan can pass off with such ludicrous lines like, "Abhi toh sirf well-done kiya hai, abhi dun-dun karna baaki hai" or "Tumne bharosa kiya, now trust me". Whatever that is supposed to mean!
