We never found a hollywood production so bollywoodish. A typical masala story with some genius work on Screenplay,editing and direction. A simple scene like two children escaping and jumping on a train, would have just felt like a ususal scene in any bollywood movie but it felt different in this one. Going by my wife's words, it actually showed what the world wants to see about india, not a dreamworld created by Karan Johar :)
Another hint of genius was music and background score. A.R.Rahman is setting standards to scary heights now :). Dilli 6 is going to prove it again!!
Reuse of tracks like paper planes and aaj ki raat have been thoughtful. Aaj ki raat finally got its due i would say :)
I won't be surprised if this scores big on Oscars too!!
