Rock On


"Tum ho toh gaata hai dil ..... tum nahin toh geet kahan" - screams my junior's status message on Gtalk !  At first I didnt get what it meant but it didnt take long enough for me to realize that it was the lyrics of "Rock On". Just like him several other friends of mine too had "Rock On" lyrics as their Gtalk status message. Never had I seen any movie finding its way to so many status messages. 

Makes me wonder what was the one thing that made this movie different enough to capture the imagination of so many cool dudes and babes !  Being an guest expert in Behaviourial Sciences it surprising to me that so many people had fallen to the movie's charm though the movie had no Bikini scenes, kissing scenes, item numbers, running around trees, villain, the customary dishum-dishum  or SRK !!

For me it was the mature way in which the story was handled with the kick-ass songs. Unlike other Bolly movies it didnt show Rock stars as badly dressed drug sniffing over-tattoed morons. 

But what was in it that clicked for you ?.....................  Socha nahin toh socho abhi !!
