the actress definitely got a lot criticism for her weak acting , which quite standed out , as she is the main lead
Yes...but it's not really her fault...she was a model,she even refused for the role,but I think the filmmakers insisted
The essential arc of the story is going from Janardhan seeking heartbreak & pain to get recognition to Jordan at his lowest, with all the recognition in the world, begging that "Whatever happens...My heart shouldn't break"
In the beginning, he will go to any length for that pain. By the end he is willing to go to any length to save himself from it. Remember, he doesn't drink and only does so with Heer - after the hospital scene he is showing up drunk to numb the pain.
The look the old veteran musician ( Ranbir's great uncle and legendary actor Shammi Kapoor) gives is of concern - he knows the sheer talent of Jordan but sees that he is self-destructing.
The movie is highly symbolic and poetic - the cruel joke is even after losing Heer Jordan keeps on becoming more famous. He is at a point where he doesn't care at all about it - but has it in abundance.
It's like the western concept of "selling your soul" - Jordan "trades his heart." Almost like a deal with the Devil, unlimited fame & adulation for unlimited pain and heartbreak.
(guys ye mera khudka comment nhi ha btw)
Who/where did you get this insight from? It is so profound.
@@arunavdas it was someone's comment in cinedesi's reaction of rock star... It isn't my own
@@mahima_queen My god, what a piece of writing. Thanks for sharing Queen Mahima.
30:57 he is actually Ranbir’s grand uncle in real life. Which means he is brother of Ranbir’s grandfather. He is a very legendary actor from old Bollywood. His name is shami Kapoor :)
Oh this should be a top comment. Also to note the scene they were doing on the boat was an adaptation of the classic scene from "Kashmir ki Kali" done by Ranbir's grand uncle Shami Kapoor himself!!! And he passed away before the release of this movie 💔💔
RK was great here. as was the music...
Nargis was underwhelming but not that bad, given it was her debut in a Hindi movie as a non-native speaker. better than some other modern debutants lately
She’s the only flaw in this otherwise perfect movie.
Yes she was the only bad part
@@ezerei2911well said.
Ya she can't act that well tbh but it was fine
@Pratanu9its a comment section, ppl can comment their opinions...hope that helps :)
3 Reason why I go and rewatch this movie from time to time:
1. Music Album and their inclusion in the storyline and screenplay
2. Ranbir Kapoor and his closeup scene with amazing acting skills
3. Seeing my college and getting nostalgia of those lawns
🥰
Which college is thsi
@@abhilashasharma5334 in movie Ranbir Kapoor is from Hindu College and Nargis from St. Stephen's College
the reason that the actress’s performance is not the best is because she’s not an actress she’s a model and she did some modeling for a jewelry company and her pictures were all over India and the director of the movie saw some of the pictures and he wanted her to be in the movie and he contacted her agents and she told them she’s never been in movie before but the director insisted and wanted her in so she agreed.
These behind the scenes reason doesn’t help in getting the feeling of the chemistry. Her acting completely ruined the movie for me.
I believe she's a blank canvas so that you can reimagine her to be whoever you were in love with
@@mastaadmi05 you still need acting for that. Otherwise a great movie can be spoiled!
Am I the only one who thought nargis did a fine job in the movie??
Just for the INFORMATION : All the heavy metal guitar played in this movie is by Orianthi Australian guitarist and singer and songwriter, yes She is the Lead Guitarist of Micheal Jackson - This is it Tour.. Here Imtiyaz Ali the Director and Rehman the music magician only wants a perfect chords for each and every situation and songs like Sadda Haq and Nadan Parindey too, so they Joined her in there project and make This Movie a blast.
A week Ago, I was in Mumbai (INDIA), in a Mohit Chauhan Concert. And he sings each & every song of Rockstar Movie and that was Phenomenal. And one of the Best Moment of my Life.
What I think the biggest irony is that thoughout the film it's seen that he's love heals her keeps her alive but ultimately it's his love that kills her too because you know she gets pregnant and her body can't handle it. What was supposedly the most beautiful moment of them is what eventually ended everything
47:00 They blurred "Free Tibet", and the flag, that you see waving, is the flag of the Kingdom of Tibet, before accession of China.
Yes, Aditi Rao Hydari who plays the journalist is a good actress. The little sister did go on to star in a leading role in the Hindi adaptation of The Fault in Our Stars.
His sister or hers?

Guys Veer Zara next. Love from India❤
Sanam Teri Kasam underrated but worth to watch it 💛 i believe Waleska will enjoy it a lot. Efra after DDLJ also. I love the storyline and the music is great. Thats my opinion 🤗
YES THAT IS A TOTALLY, DELIBERATELY IGNORED GEM. !!👌
she is a better dancer than she is an actress, is the nicest way to describe her performance, this movie is all about ranbir, makers wanted just a beautiful looking actress who could dance ig
had the opportunity to see mohit chauhan live, what an artist, heavenly voice.
the censored banners in the movie says 'FREE TIBET'
& the instrument played by ustad ji is called 'shehnai'
Yes that song was censored because it shows Tibetan flag and Tibetan people holding board against China, so Chinese brand filed a case. This song was shot in Dharamshala (HP) India where many ot Tibetan resides. Nice review🎉🎉🎉
There is a great theory that after Heer's death, music becomes a portal for Jordan to connect to Heer. Thats why he devotes his life making music life this so that he keeps on feeling the essence of Heer. Thats just a Fan theory
Rockstar is the movie which made me a fan of Ranbir Kapoor. He is a phenomenal actor. I’ve watched every movie of his since then. This man outperforms everyone he’s in a movie with. Animal is the latest one, where his performance was just extraordinary! I love this man! Can’t wait for y’all to explore more of his movies!!
Animal is crap compared to Rockstar
@@Satyam2105 nah he killed it in Animal
@@Satyam2105no it isn't
Alpha male aa gaye bhai.. Sorry guys Animal ko bura bol diya AK-47 leke mat aana mere ghar
@@garou09his performance was of course amazing but the movie itself..
That eating from hand thing, it’s really upto one’s comfort. May also vary from class to class, your community etc., but at the end of the day, it reaches down to comfort.
I love how ur guys reactions are natural and aren’t forced, it’s like I’m watching this with my close friends:) ( p.s if you’re looking for more suggestions I recommend english vinglish )
Heard mohit chauhan sing live yesterday it was magical!!!!!
Watch Sanju..it's played by Ranbir and it's comical,emotional, motivational at the same time.. really good movie with really good songs
When it comes to indian music - This was one of the finest music album from India .PERIOD
THE finest
@@ritu8985 correct
Man this movie .. apart from nargis cast everything was absolutely perfect.
Best album hands off.
I think you guys are ready for Tamasha now.
Next please Veer Zaara❤
when jordan had everything he ever dreamed of, he didnt want it anymore
Waiting for Veer Zara watchalong please have mercy on us do it asap
Laila Majnu 2018) should be next,great movie,great songs!!!
The best movie ever made
Never thought i would wish to like a comment 1000000 times more..
yes pleasee
that is soo underrated
@@rutanshgandhi6459 💯💯
The next movie should definitely be Tamasha... It also has A.R. Rehman in it and better concept & storytelling than Rockstar... A masterpiece which was very ahead of Its Time (2015), Ranbir & Deepika's acting was also top notch in that.. Waiting for that... ❤
No. Tamasha was the biggest flop !
Hit or flop informs if it has made money or not. It has nothing to do with the quality of a film. Tamasha is a masterpiece. The only issue is that it was way ahead of its time.
Yessss Tamasha is a masterpiece! 💛
Jagga Jasoos?
YES!! Tamasha should be next.
WHY Mohit's name is not on the title, He has played a vital role in making this movie a musical classic.
Veer Zara for srk or original Aashiqi, Hum Aapke hai kaun for music. Music made those 2 movies Superhits.
Funny how no matter where are you from, everyone thinks Nargis is a bad pick for the role of Heer
Aditi Rao Hydri role would play the role far better. And Nargis Should have had gotten the role of Reporter
Exactly!!!!
Strangely, she was nominated for Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut.
Diana panty was the first choice but due to some reasons...
You should definitely have a look on "Katyar Kaljat Ghusali" , a "Marathi" movie. The story is based on an Indian classical vocalist, Khansaheb.
You will definitely love that movie as there are too well classically trained singers singing in that movie such as Shankar Mahadevan, Mahesh Kale , Arjit and many more . 😊
Yes, a great recommendation! You missed "the" Rahul Deshpande, the voice of Khansaheb.
One of my fav ranbir roles by far, what an actor. Music and ranbir carried
You guys have to watch Main Parwaana! 🤩 Such a brilliant song and performance 💛
Veer Zaara next please. You all gonna love it
I loved ranbir before this film too but this film made me fall in love with him again nd so much more!! He is sooo brilliant in this movie! 👏 ❤❤
26:43 & 28:58 those expressions of Ranbir kapoor...his eyes said many things in those scenes 😢❣️
48:20 u can clearly see tibet's flag on ranbirs jacket.....that blurred word was "free tibet"
Mohit Chauhan, AR Rahman and RK made this movie legendary.
45:15 The poster/banner they censored said "FREE TIBET" but they didn't censor the Tibetan flag visible in the next second. The one with the yellow border with the white mountain in the middle and blue skies which you can see at 45:25
Veer Zara 💯
I have watched this movie 3 times in movie theatre and it is the best musical movie. The lyrics, the feel & Ranbeer Kapoor ❤❤❤
Finally 🎉🎉❤😅
This movie is underrated masterpiece of Imtiaz Ali
Ending of this movie is one of the best and very touching
I already start liking ranbir in 2010 after APKGK but this movie made me permanent fan of him ❤
Watching This movie is indeed a beautiful musical journey
Always love watching this again and again
Kudos to Ranbir Mohit AR Rahman and imtiaz Ali
I think that is TIBET revolutionary flag in “sada Haq” song for Tibet independence movement. That flag is called “the snow lion flag “ as well. Don’t know how many notice that in the song .
u guys are rockstars in ur movie choices.. keep it up.
Some facts about this incredible album by AR:
1. There are two songs in the end fused together viz. 'Tum Ko' and 'Tum Ho'. Former is the song from the actress' point of view while latter from actor's. Hence, Tum Ko is sung by Kavitha Krishnamurthy and Tum Ho sung by Mohit Chauhan with those angelic hummings and soprano-esque voices by Suzanne D'mello
2. AR featured some international musicians in the album. The groovy Sadda Haq featured drummer Oscar Seaton and guitarist Orianthi. The gypsy type song, Hawa Hawa featured violinist Ann Marie. The song right after it, Aur Ho features Alma Fevoric who regularly collaborates with AR.
3. Multiple genres of music displays AR's versatility as a composer, you have Sufi music in Kun Faya Kun, the Indian classical-western fusion in Dichotomy of fame, the gypsy-flamenco-european music inspired Hawa Hawa, the Punjabi folk music inspired Katiya Karun, the disco transitioning Phir Se ud chala, the Spanish Tango inspired 'Tango for Taj' and of course everything centered around rock music with AR bringing his signature string arrangements and amazing chord progressions in different songs like Aur Ho, Tum Ho/Tum Ko and some places in the background score.
nargis fakri is the only weak point abt this movie
And the biggest one
Yeah i think katrina or deepeka would have been better choice
She did alright you guys are pushing it
We watched this movie in theater and walked out so confused about our emotions. And loved the movie more and more as time went on. 😂 Ranbir really proved himself with this one as an actor.
"Phir se ud chala" is one of my all time favourite song. "Meri bebasi" (Aur Ho), the toughest song of this movie in my opinion. Mohit Chauhan is such an incredible singer. Truly a rockstar.
Agree, Aur Ho is a masterpiece, reflecting the depth of his fierce angst and loss-unbelievably edgy with raging pain and pathos. Nobody in the world can interpret abstraction like ARR😍
@@sumanthnagabushan1063 Absolutely
To witness even a better masterpiece, watch Guzaarish of hritik roshan and Aishwarya. One of the greatest acting and musical masterpieces. One of the most underrated movies of him by the magician Sanjay Leela bhansaali himself
You should watch Sanam Teri Kasam ❤ Its a really heart whelming movie 🎥🥹
Loved loved your reactions, guys! Now I know you guys will really appreciate movies like Veer Zaara, Mohabbatein, Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna, etc.
Love this list!
Next Movie Tamasha Please!!!
AR Rahman, Ranbir Kapoor, and Director Imtiaz Ali.
Same Combination and that movie is another Masterpiece.
Also Musically Excellent ❤❤❤❤
Devdas Devdas Devdas ❤❤❤
Yes yes yes
The way he almost breaks down at "Bahar reh nhi paaunga main". Will never not break me.
Still the best Indian musical masterpiece till date... Ranbir become my favourite after rockstar 😊😊
Mohit Chauhan is very underrated singer! My all time favourite. His voice is unique!
I was hoping veer zara will win the competition but maybe next time
Just attended a Mohit Chauhan concert and listened to the rockstar album live
Most favourite movie. Love the music, love the story and Ranbir's acting chef's kiss 😘
That lake scene is a actual bollywood ionic song and video. It's ranbir grandfather movie
Kashmir ki Kali was Shammi Kapoor's movie who is also here in Rockstar and he is Ranbir's grand uncle not grandfather 🥰.
Katyar Kalijat Ghusli next please, It is a Marathi drama musical - set in a kingdom in early British occupied India. The music album is amazing, and will be a great way for y'all to experience Indian classical music and also be unique as it is in Marathi not Hindi (i.e, not Bollywood).
Veer Zaara should be next please!
Next movie please... Sanam teri kasam❤
After years finally
Great performance by Ranbir and awesome music. Movie drags a bit but the aforementioned two keep it going.
Also watch Tamasha and Sanju
He didn't die but he faded away from the limelight and forgotten like many other stars who fade away and we only here about them when they die after long time
After watching your reaction I'm sad you guys didn't go for Veer Zaara. Rockstar is musically AMAZING but Veer-Zaara is a beautiful film with beautiful music. Please make it your next watch🙏🏻
If music & good film is what you're looking for then
watch Namastey london(starring Akshay kumar & katrina kaif) with Himesh reshamiya music (one of his best)
Guzaarish of Hrithik and Aishwarya plss❤❤
CHAK DE INDIA
that's the one you should checkout NXT...
Sport based....nice music.... And ofcourse
SRK is in there
Please Veer Zaara or K3G next🙏🏼🙏🏼
10:06 to clear your doubts
We use Handwash
Wash it throughly and then eat
Its pretty normal
Some restaurants bave both options
But idk how you'll eat Samosas or parathas or nans with spoon hehe
Next movie should be sanam teri kasam it literally underrated movie ❤
The man on wheel chair is his actual grand father and the lake song was performed and acted by him in his early prime days of being q lead man.
I want to suggest you "VeerZara"... trust me you're not ready for this movie... absolutely heart touching music my Lata Mangeshkar and Udit Narayan
Please watch Veer zara guys very good music
you get a movie like rockstar when you have:
1. mediocre diretion
2. bad actress
3. extraordinary actor
4. legendary music
5. good editing
6. good cinematography
7. Mediocre story
This movie was carried by AR and Ranbir Kapoor. I still love it.
I just finished watching and loved this film again after years guys you should promote this musical masterpiece in your friend circle so that more people should know about this film and about Mohit's talent as a singer. The world needs more exposure to Indian films as there are many musical masterpieces waiting to get limelight in the international Market.❤
The legendary Mohit Chauhan & AR Rahman
Every word of this movie songs .. is legendary..
One of the greatest actors India have ever produced Ranbir
I wish they casted a better actress in the movie cos Nargis sucked!!
I love this movie so soo much but Nargis was the one thing that spoiled it for me! Ik it was her debut film nd everything.. the fact that she never wanted to become an actor but hit a jackpot with an Imtiaz Ali film as her debut is something! Apart from her everything else about this movie is 🤌🤌🤌
Imtiaz Ali X ARR can never go wrong! ❤
Also Mohit Chauhan ❤❤
Indian rock started with the movie Rock On. Must listen, still favourite. That is pure Indian Rock.
In the song Sadda Haq, He mentions the birds left the forest, I am searching them.
In Naadan Parinde, He sings, Oh birds, please come back.
I loved this movie , yeah Nurgis was a bit blah in her acting but this was her debut, but Ranbir was brilliant and Nadan Parinday masterpiece
Apart from barfi, roja, bombay, rockstar, tamasha.. there is also Dil Bechara.. the last movie of SSR.. its a musical treat for you to explore as no other channel has done that yet i think.. and by the way the actress in Dil Bechara is same girl who played Heer's lil sister in Rockstar..
Both have a such crazy Enthusiasm ❤
yeeesssss finallyyy🤩!!! Ranbir is just GREAT in this movie! Oh and the MUSIC😭!!!
waiting forever for this
*SCREAMING* thanks for the weekend surprise ❤️
More movies for you:
Tamasha
Veer Zaara
Ek Villian
Kaabil
Kites
SANAM TERI KASAM next 🥰😭
Irfan sir's madaari is heart wrenching ❤❤if you wanna cry and want to see impeccable acting.. that's a good choice
Ranbir Kapoor is the best actor💥💯❤
VEER ZAARA NEXT PLS
And finally he got what he
wanted knowingly or unknowingly - the PAIN n the music comes out !
