He had the works - a mansion to live in, chicks to party with and the cars to be driven around in, until one day, the family he was the favorite pet of, decided to move and left him back, abandoned on the mean streets of Mumbai. Poor Romeo now faces situations he has never been in before. He ends up encountering a gang of four ruffians that comprises of three dogs Guru (Vrajesh Hirjee), Interval (Suresh Menon), Hero English (Kiku Sharda) and cat Mini (Tanaaz Currim). They first scare the living daylights out of him with their bhaigiri but the smart dude Romeo convinces them about how he can be an asset to their team by showcasing his hair cutting skills. They all become friends an open a salon called Romeo s salon. Their business starts running briskly in a short span of time. But hey also end up facing the wrath of the local dreaded don of that area the fat bull dog, Charlie Anna (Jaaved Jaffrey). But Romeo outsmarts him as well. Then one full moon night Romeo encounters Laila (Kareena) practicing her dance steps atop a roof. He falls for her instantly and tries unsuccessfully to woo her. She lays him a condition that to win her love he should and dance and propose to her at the Moonlight Club where she performs every night. Romeo goes on to that only to realize that Charlie Anna has a soft spot for her and has been trying to woo her for long. Charlie captures Romeo and is about to kill him for attempting to get closer to Laila when Romeo manages to convince him that he would manage to win Laila s heart for Charlie. Charlie spares his life. Now Romeo is in a fix. He has to hide this deal of his with Charlie Anna from Laila and at the same time save his life from Charlie Anna. How Romeo manages to come out of this tangle forms rest of the film. Saif Ali Khan manages to bring in the cool dude attitude with his voice for the Romeo s character. Kareena too brings in the perfect elegance required for Laila. But one who towers above them both is Jaaved Jaffrey whose Tamilian don makes the film memorable with his dialogue delivery style. A lot of young children will definitely watch this movie twice over just for Jaaved Jaffrey s Charlie Anna. --www.platform47.comWhat's common between dogs and men apart from their territorial woof woof is that they have hearts. Roadside Romeo takes the men's most loyal pets and places them in the setting of a typical, kitschy Bollywood film with romance, drama, comedy and a bit of action.At the centre of the story is a cultured and smart dog Romeo (voiced by Saif Ali Khan ) who is left to survive on the mean streets after the family that kept him moves to London. As Romeo grapples with the tough life on the streets ruled by goons, he befriends a couple of strays and begins a salon.Springing out as a collaboration between India's elite production house Yashraj Films and the Hollywood's Walt Disney Pictures, Roadside Romeo is an animation film that holds an appeal strictly for kids.The movie's main strength is its impressive animation work. Meticulous attention has been paid to not just the look of the characters, but also the details of the surroundings. --www.platform47.comRoadside Romeo is visually stunning for an Indian animation movie. The storyline is exactly what you'd expect from a Yash Raj banner. The predictable love story, the DDLJ spoof and other nudges towards earlier Yash Raj films. Director Jugal Hansraj makes a nice debut behind the camera, but he could've used a better script to pull in older audience.The voices are provided by the absolute A list of Bollywood. Saif Ali Khan is great as the protagonist. It is obvious that Saif's voice is his weakest link as an actor but he really pulls of a convincing character.Jaaved Jaffery is outstanding as usual --www.platform47.comWhat's common between dogs and men apart from their territorial woof woof is that they have hearts.
