About Fan<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Fan is a Shah Rukh Khan VS Shah Rukh Khan thriller which has the Badshah Khan stepping out of his comfort zone of portraying the character of a die-hard romantic. Fan will take you back to the days of Darr and Anjaan when SRK played the obsessive lover\/stalker, we couldn\u2019t resist praising. The movie is about the imaginary relationship between a star and his fan wherein the latter is street smart and cynical and expects way too much from the former. Fan is Maneesh Sharma\u2019s directorial thriller drama which has the Bollywood Superstar Shah Rukh Khan portraying two very different roles in a flawless way.<\/p>\n

Plot<\/strong><\/p>\n

The movie \u201cFan\u201d has SRK playing the role of a superstar Aryan Khanna and also of a creepy obsessed fan named Gaurav who has great prosthetics and sparkling white teeth. On getting a chance to meet Aryan Khanna, Gaurav heads straight to Mumbai to meet his favourite actor and wish him on his birthday. Bearing a striking resemblance to the\u00a0 superstar, Gaurav\u2019s love and passion for his God turns into a dangerous obsession that crosses every boundary. Gaurav, then, travels around the world, following on Aryan\u2019s footsteps and stages crimes whose blame are being pinned on the reputed movie actor.<\/p>\n

Fan is an edge-of-the-seat thriller that peels away the personalities and characters of both, Gaurav and Aryan in a fantastic way. The deficiency of songs definitely doesn\u2019t make Fan an easy-to-miss flick.<\/p>\n

Performances<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Shah Rukh Khan is undoubtedly a must-see for his brilliant acting skills in the movie \u2018Fan\u2019. Having rarely revealed such an acting talent in his prior movies including Happy New Year and Chennai Express, the actor has balanced both the characters (Aryan Khanna and Gaurav) outstandingly. His performance is beyond excellence and the superstar has yet again proved his worth in Bollywood. It is noteworthy that a particular type of 3D technique was being utilized for making Shah Rukh Khan look like a 17-year-old boy.<\/p>\n

Next are Deepika Amin and Yogendra Tiku, who have portrayed the roles of Gaurav\u2019s mother and father in the movie. Both have fitted well into their characters and their on-screen portrayal of parents of a die-hard movie actor’s fan is laudable.<\/p>\n

Making her debut with \u2018Fan\u2019 is famous comedian-cum-actor Sachin Pilgaonkar\u2019s daughter, Shriya.\u00a0 In addition, actors, including Sayani Gupta and Waluscha De Sousa, can also be seen in pivotal roles doing complete justice to their characters in the flick.<\/p>\n

Fan Music<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fan has an elevating music by the duo Vishal-Shekhar with Andrea Guerra handling the background score and lyrics written by Varun Grover. The song \u201cJabra Fan\u2019 is the only USP of Fan with its eight different versions (in prominent Indian languages) been sung by popular regional singers.<\/p>\n

Details of songs in the movie<\/h3>\n

1. \u201cJabra Fan (Hindi)\u201d<\/p>\n

Singer(s): Nakash Aziz<\/p>\n

Duration: 03:45<\/p>\n

What\u2019s Good?<\/h3>\n

Best things about Fan include Shah Rukh Khan (both as Aryan and Gaurav), superb screenplay, dialogues, direction, VFX effects, music and cinematography. Whether it\u2019s about flaunting a giant-size star ego or occupying the silver screen as a young, star-struck fan; Shah Rukh Khan has put in his best efforts to make both the characters believable.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s Bad?<\/h3>\n

Well, minor dips throughout the narration and some easily noticeable flaws in the second half are the only two downsides of Fan.<\/p>\n

Verdict<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you have watched all Maneesh Sharma-directed movies, then Fan is definitely the one you can\u2019t afford to miss. As a flick with an unusual plot, Fan will allow you to view the madness of a fan and the heavy persona of a superstar. Go and watch Fan if you want to get a good glimpse of the never-seen-before side of SRK\u2019s personality.<\/p>\n

Fan Movie Rating **** (4\/5)<\/strong><\/p>\n
