Sohail Khan

A formerly decorated Army officer Jai Agnihotri (Salman Khan) is now leading the life of a common man. Employed as a mechanic in a garage, he still cannot withstand the social evils which are going viral around us. Raising his voice against the wrong doers lands him and his family in stick troubles.

Despite repeated attempts to stay off trouble for the sake of his lady love (Daisy Shah), he cannot ignore the chain of things and ends up pitted opposite the evil Home Minister Dasharath Singh (Danny).

Whether Jai manages to get his noble hearted intentions to trigger further or loses to Singh is what the story tracks down.

Most of the times Salman movies talks less about the script. But this one being an exception. The credits of Jai Ho goes to its story itself. The execution lacks a bit. The film’s story comes without excessive baggage of intelligence and is kept simplistic in its vein. No one watches Salman’s films for exhilarating acting or story. We understand the limitations of the genre he has established but definitely the scripts he chooses have an intrinsic element of relatability. The screenplay of the movie is poor in the first half. But the movie really makes a great mark in its second half. The first half screenplay of the movie could have been made more interesting but Sohail Khan and his team failed to generate some good remarks in first half. Post interval movie stands good. 

Dialogues of the movie are fantastic. Especially :" AAM AADMI SOTA HUA SHER HAI UNGLI MAT KAR, WARNA CHEER FAAD DEGA" , "Thank You mat bolo instead teen logon ki madat karna aur unse kehna ki wo teen logo ki madat kare". Dialogues are good for the movie.

JAI HO is a Salman show through and through and the actor rises above the script to deliver a bravura performance. The actor fires on all cylinders, standing tall and dwarfing everything and everyone in sight. You cannot take your eyes off him, he's simply incredible. Tabu returns to the masala zone after a hiatus and the choice of film couldn't be more appropriate. For, there's ample meat in her character to stand out. Daisy Shah doesn't really get much scope, but you cannot ignore the fact that she's a terrific and graceful dancer. Danny Denzongpa enacts the evil politician with gusto. Sana Khan leaves a mark in a role that has negative shades. Genelia Deshmukh is wonderful in a brief but significant role. Nadira Babbar is first-rate. Pulkit Samrat is efficient. Naman Jain, who enacts the role of Salman's nephew, is super. Suniel Shetty appears in a cameo. 

The film has a strong supporting cast, which includes Mahesh Manjrekar, Aditya Pancholi, Mohnish Bahl, Sharad Kapoor, Mahesh Thakur, Mukul Dev, Ashmit Patel, Yash Tonk, Varun Badola, Vatsal Sheth, Tulip Joshi, Haroon Qazi and Sudesh Lehri. They enact their respective characters well. Santosh Shukla makes a confident big screen debut. Also, the actor who enacts the part of the drunkard stands out. 

Sohail Khan attempts to create a positive jingoism of warmth and goodness. But the director fails to fabricate the genuineness as it doesn’t emerge out the required intensity due to the over enthusiasm of its screenplay The preaching is overdone and had it not been for Salman Khan the film would have been entirely unwatchable. The romance scenes were half baked and did not have the expected fluff. Often the film’s screenplay inflicts severe wounds on the intelligence of the audiences but when there is such unbelievable thunderous action to get mesmerized by, why waste time picking out logic lapses in the film. If you were looking for logic, Dedh Ishqiya would have been a super-hit. Especially, in the climax scene, when an army tanker guns down people who come to kill Jai, if you manage to find logic then hats off to you!

The brisk editing works fine as the film remains fast paced and doesn’t fall slack too much. The music is unbearable.

Jai Ho is not a masala entertainer. It is a movie with a script but could not stand for good execution. Salman is the key factor of the movie which will for sure make it a All time Blockbuster. 

My Rating for the movie is 3 on 5

The Jai Ho‘s trailer is out and saying that it gets you excited is an understatement. 

Though Jai Ho isn’t releasing till 24th January, 2014, the film’s trailer will be enough to gear up the actor’s teeming zillions of fans across the globe for the movie. What goes without saying is that people are waiting with bated breaths to watch another Salman Khan film.

Watch out trailer here

Bollywood’s superstar Salman Khan is having a release almost after a year, which is probably the longest gap the actor has ever had. Jai Ho would be Khan’s next release after Dabangg 2, which released in Dec 2012.

Salman Khan and Sohail Khan have come up with a unique idea for the first trailer launch of Jai Ho as the Khan brothers were keen to have something special.

Salman will unveil the look of the movie in the presence of his fans at the Chandan single screen theatre on the 5th of December. This will be the first time the trailer would be presented at a public platform and his fans will be able to witness and give him first hand reaction on the same.

Rather than only showing it to the media, Salman will also get a chance to interact with his fans. Says an insider, “Salman has a huge fan base who have been eagerly waiting to his film to launch. This way, the makers will reach directly to a common man and will receive a feedback straight from the audience.”

Salman’s Jai Ho is a story of an upright common man who is fighting a solitary war against corruption and injustice.

Much has been spoken about Salman Khan’s upcoming film Jai Ho. With the latest pictures from the sets of the film going viral, the reason why the film was renamed Jai Ho is evident now.

The film was earlier named Mental but on insistence of Salman Khan the name was changed to Jai Ho. Previously it was assumed that since the film was targeting the 26th January holiday with its release, the name would have been more appropriate. But the reason seems to be entirely different.

In the new picture from the sets of the film, actor Salman Khan is seen in the role of an army man with his uniform reading the name Jai Agnihotri. Though the film is a remake of Southern film Stalin, Salman Khan will surely add his own charm to make it distinct. Directed by Sohail Khan, the film will release on 24th January.
