To be frank I was just expecting that this movie would be about a random boy, making it big, battling addictions and finally collapsing. But the movie surprised me. Yep.
I won't discuss the entire story of the movie. But Rockstar is actually a love story and rock n roll is just used as a backdrop. The actual "Rock stars" like Morrison, Cobain were actually fighting a battle with themselves and with their lives overall. However, the movie does not depict anything similar, but manages to tell a tale of love, sprinkled with some good music. Although the movie makers were trying hard to depict Ranbir like the cliche rock star who's a stoner in response to a miserable state of mind.
However, it seems like they were trying to exaggerate his rage just to match his persona with a typical rock star. The overall progression of the story is good, but at times it is too abrupt and fast. Thumbs up to the cinematography, Ranbir, Nargis and the music which blends nicely with the movie.
Overall, Rockstar is a good movie which does not try to be cliche but manages to tell a beautiful story about a beautiful emotion they call "love".
My rating- 3/5
