Misunderstood movies

I feel very strongly about two movies which people keep criticizing about but I feel for the wrong reasons. I would not mind if people don't like the story or acting or direction in particular but most of the people comment about a certain fact in the story line which they think ruined the movie. Here is a defense.

1. Dilli 6: I loved the movie. It has good songs, decent delhi-ism and good looking people as well. Also, for some reason, the kala bandar reminded me of the monkey man incident. It reminded me of college days when  for a week, we had discussed about the monkey man scare in Delhi. This brought back those memories.

However, the thing people comment about Abhishek coming back from death. Comeon, it's not a big issue at all. It is symbolic. People should not see any logic to it. And if Harry Potter can, so can Abhishek.

2. Rab ne baba di Jodi: This is  another wonderful movie with a simple story, decent songs, an excellently pictured song and of course THE superstar. But people say how come Anushka cannot differentiate between the 2 Shahrukhs. The answer is simple: If you see the movie carefully, you will see that it has been answered. Because Rab wanted it that way. See, it is a simple explanation. If you accept this fact, the movie is actually very nice especially the love story between Suri and Anushka.

So, don't be picky about little things in the movie. Look at the big picture.
