Every film has its own villain and Drona is no exception. The villain in this fantasy film directed by Goldie Behl and starring Abhishek Bachchan and Priyanka Chopra is the charismatic Kay Kay Menon. Critically acclaimed for his performances in films like Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi, Honeymoon Travels Pvt Ltd and Corporate, Kay Kay comes from a theatre background. He tells us what we can expect from Drona.
Abhishek Bachchan is playing some sort of mythic superhero and -- while there could definitely be something interesting bubbling under the bright-gold surface -- the actor seems decidedly miscast in the role. Again, we are judging based on pre-release imagery, but even if the role is a great one, I daresay most of us would be surprised. There's just something about Abhishek that doesn't quite lend itself to a simplistic superhero movie.
A subject like Drona, high on make-believe and enchantment, screams for adventure and surreal in its compositions. And while the soundtrack has its moments, in entirety it's too average to achieve any of these elements.
On August 15, in all probability, Ranbir's Bachna Ae Haseeno will clash with Abhishek's much awaited Drona.
