And the film ends after the last Action sequence as Suryah stops his Qualis and lets women and little girls cross the road.Įnding is great. Suryah doesnt seem to have a chance in front of the twin Villains. In fact he seemed funny with his bihari or UP accent.Įnding is pretty exciting. The villain doesnt seem to be so menacing except for the last scene. He comes to Chennai to hide for sometime after having killed a social activist's entire family in Calcutta. His equally bad twin brother joins him at the end. Though the Villain is same in both movies, he looks more menacing and sophisticated in the Tamil Version. But she acted well.ĭefinitely Jiah khan is hotter. Though Nayanthara is hottest heroine down south, she was quite chubby in this film. And he has achieved an incredible physique for the movie.Īsin has done equally good in both versions. You really feel for him when he cries lying in the hospital bed when he knows what happened to Asin. But his portrayal of anger and furiousness at what happened to his girl is superb. The short term memory loss thing is totally lost in the Hindi. So didnt have to do anything extra to make action scenes believable. He does great acting of not recognising anyone and seems to be lost. Suryah makes a mark portraying the short term memory loss patient. Hero! This is the big question? Suryah or Aamir. But his physique and fit of rage makes it so believable. Aamir khan doesnt have the image that he can bash up 10-15 people. The Hindi has an upper hand here is whst I feel after seeing it. But yes it makes impact.Īction is superb. The background music when Aamir goes on a rampage is not new for Tamil movie audience.
Though it has been 2.5 years since I saw the film the background music is still on my mind. It has huge impact to portray the characters. There is background music for each character. It is so awesome and used in the end fight. I have the Ghajini Theme music in my MP3 player. The Tamil version really scores in this department. The music was driving factor for me to watch the movie.
I was really let down that the latoo song was cut. Kaise mujhe is great (song as well as picturisation). Hindi version scores here against its Tamil counterpart. X-machi shows an overweight Nayanthara which was a turn off. Picturisation is great for Sutrum Vizhi is good. So following is how I compare the two movies on the basis of relevant points. And the title merely states the theme of the film. In Tamil, the Villain's name was Laxman I suppose. And Hero wants to find Ghajini, hence the title. While dying Asin tells him the name of the Villain. And the hero doesnt know his face but only his name. In Hindi, the Villain's name is Ghajini Dharmatma. Nowhere you feel that the short term memory loss has affected him, except for the end where he doesnt recognise the Villain himself. The Hindi one is totally about how the Hero like a wounded tiger goes all out to bash his girfriend's killers. The Tamil version surely depicts the struggle of a person impaired with short term memory loss, to take revenge of his girlfriend. Personally, I feel the two movies are totally different. I chose the title thinking it may lure more audience ). Alright, I have been waiting to write this for a long time.įirst of all I am just making a comparison between the two versions of the Movie.
