Passion is a thing which makes you feel alive and makes you realise that this is the thing I want to do my entire life whereas love is a strong feeling which makes you feel better with a person whom you want to spend your entire life with, But what if your path reaches to a point with they both intersect and unfortunately you lose something most precious to your heart and get shattered. Here I'm talking about the 2011 movie Rockstar directed by Imtiaz Ali.

Rockstar here deals with both these aspects of life. A simple, stupid, Delhi boy belonging to a middle class family, studying in the usual engineering college, plays guitar , wants to look cool and is very passionate to become a singer. But neither his cool'ness' nor his singing talent is appreciated. Janardhan (Ranbir Kapoor), a 5.9 feet boy with tight blue jeans and shirt with sweater and his most fluent accent of English goes to propose 'Heer' (Nargis Fakhri) the most beautiful and classy girl of the college because of an advice given by his wise friend Khatana Bhai (Kumud Mishra) that, "Toote hue dil se hi sur nikalta h!".

Clearly depicting the traits of eccentric he acts like his heart has been broken, without any knowledge of being in love, or if love fades aways, its anger, its pain its hollowness, as he was rejected by Heer.The character of Ranbir kapoor is clearly brought in picture within 20mins of the movie being a clearly senseless and stupid yet some traits of trivial Delhi boy. and what happens later in this movie is a great writing and musical experience.

The character done by Ranbir Kapoor is so intriguing which makes you completely fall for the journey between Janardhan aka Jordan and Heer. The chemistry shown between the two characters is done so amazingly by the writers Imtiaz Ali and Muazzam Beg as they limelighted every aspect of this Janardhan becoming Jordan to Jordan meeting Heer and later what demise Jordan faces. The Cinematography done by Anil Mehta is such a visual treat which makes this film completely compatible with the storyline point of view. The music composed by A.R Rahman and penned by Irshad Kamil experess many ways of a character in this film. As Jordan moves ahead in his life every particular song describes what he is feeling and what he is trying to find. The songs sung by Mohit Chauhan are completely astounding and soothing which makes Jordan's character more powerful along with the writing part. Every cast member of this film has gave his best performance even Piyush Mishra's character is designed as an ugly and rude boss whereas Aditi Rao Hydari shown as a fierce and subjective one. The film recieved an amazing response from the viewers as well as critics which made them bagged Filmfare Awards along with People's Choice Awards.

Don't live like a robot who don't have feelings or don't know the importance of happiness, who follows each rules and regulations. Become an animal who lives life in their own style. Be writer of your life, not an audience to just watch what's happening in life. The movie is fully focuses on importance of dreams/passion and what happens if you are forced to do that you don't want. Movie is motivational as well as inspirational. What a powerful acting done by Ranbir Kapoor, seriously it leaves you speechless. And I have no words for Imtiaz Ali's great direction, it's just a great work.

We’ve all been there: watching a big Bollywood blockbuster where the "hero" is basically a cardboard cutout, while his best friend is the one actually making us laugh and feel something. It’s frustrating when the most relatable person on screen is treated like an afterthought. If you’re tired of the same old "superstar" formula, you’re not alone.

I’ve spent way too much time watching actors like Abhishek Banerjee and Varun Sharma carry entire scenes on their backs while the lead actor gets all the slow-motion shots. It feels like the industry is finally waking up to the fact that we care more about the "sidekick" than the guy on the poster.

The upcoming film Side Heroes is basically a middle finger to that old-school trope. Here is why this project is actually worth your time:

The Casting is a Masterstroke: Bringing together Abhishek Banerjee, Aparshakti Khurana, and Varun Sharma is like assembling the Avengers of comedic timing. These guys have redefined what it means to be a supporting actor.

The Friendship Day Hook: The side Hero movie release is officially set for July 31, 2026. It’s timed perfectly for the Friendship Day weekend, which makes total sense for a story about platonic bonds.

A Different Side of Imtiaz Ali: We usually expect Ali to give us deep, soul-searching romance. Seeing him present a quirky, meta-comedy about the "best friend" archetype is a wild but welcome pivot.

The "Meta" Narrative: This isn't just a slapstick comedy. It’s a tribute to the people who are always the "safety net" but never the main protagonist.

I’ve noticed that audiences are moving away from the untouchable "hero" and gravitating toward characters that actually look and talk like us. Letting these three lead a film together feels like a massive win for anyone who values actual performance over star power.

ज़िंदगी में फेलियर को कैसे डील करना है यह आप इम्तियाज़ अली से सीख सकते हैं

जेएलएफ का हर दिन अपने आप में ख़ास और बहुत सीख समेटे होता है। 3 फरवरी का दिन भी कुछ ऐसा ही था जब राइटर और डायरेक्टर इम्तियाज़ अली ने जब वी मेट सेशन में अपनी ज़िंदगी और अपनी फ़िल्मों के सफर को साझा किया। सेशन में उन्हें सुनने के लिए भीड़ बेताब थी। उन्होंने कहा कि जनता का शुक्रिया जो उन्हें इतनी मोहब्बत करती है। "मेरा काम है काम करना, जब आप लोग एप्रिशिएट करते हैं तो बहुत अच्छा लगता है।"

आप सिर्फ़ कामयाब नहीं हो सकते

इम्तियाज़ अली वो डायरेक्टर हैं जिनके बारे में कहा जाता है कि वो वक़्त से काफी आगे चल रहे हैं। शायद उन्होंने अपनी ज़िंदगी को किसी स्टारडम की चादर से नहीं लपेट रखा है। वो बेबाकी से वो कहते और करते हैं जो उन्हें पसंद होता है। उन्होंने कहा कि जब हम स्कूल में होते हैं, उस वक्त हर बच्चा चाहता है कि उसकी इमेज टीचर के सामने अच्छी बनी रहे और कम से कम अगर वह टॉप ना कर पाए तो फेल भी ना हो। लेकिन ज़िंदगी तो साहब ज़िंदगी है। यहां अगर पास हो रहे हो तभी फेल भी होते हो। "मैंने इस नाकामयाबी का मज़ा बहुत जल्द चख लिया था। मैं भी फेल हुआ था 9वीं क्लास में।" इस वक़्त जितना आसान लग रहा है बताना...
