Film Review – Review of film ‘ROY’

This film begins with a unexciting note. There is the film director Kabir Grewal (Arjun Rampal) suffereing from writers block and unable to even start off with the opening line of his story. He has his typewriter before him to start off with some writing. But, then he moves to Malaysia to start shooting for his film. There meets another Indie lady film maker Ayesha Aamir (Jaqueline Fernandez) from London and falls in love with her. The lady is never seen shooting any scenes and this makes one feel what in the hell she is doing in Malaysia, really shooting or just in the role to become the lover of the protagonist in the film.
