The trailer of Zero is out and it looks like a love triangle between Shah Rukh Khan, Anushka Sharma and Katrina Kaif.
Netizens were left entirely disappointed after watching Zero trailer as they expected something better from director Aanand L Rai, who has given films like Tanu Weds Manu series and Raanjhanaa.
Some even went to the extent of calling Zero the biggest disaster of 2018. Many also said the filmmakers of Shah Rukh's movie created unnecessary hype on social media.
Shah Rukh Khan
The trailer begins with Bauua Singh (SRK), a 38-year-old vertically challenged man, who is looking for a bride standing in a matrimony office where a photo of Aafia (Anushka) instantly strikes him. However, some sections of audiences liked the trailer and thought it could become one of the blockbusters of the year.
Bauua, who belongs to a rich family in Meerut is quite popular among his people and wants to get married soon.
Shah Rukh is seen delivering some dialogues like, " Teri wajah se meri height reh gayi , gutkha jo khata hai gapagap, sperm chote reh gye tumare aur kya," to his father played by Tigmanshu Dhulia, during a fight. Khan is trying too hard to crack jokes and to play the role of a dwarf. Many loved what he is doing in the three-minute trailer, but many said there is nothing new in his acting. However, in the trailer, we can see a roller coaster ride of his emotions.
Anushka Sharma
Anushka plays Aafia Yusufzai Bhinder, a woman suffering from cerebral palsy. It looks like she is playing a famous scientist, who gives seminars and talks to audiences and students just like Stephen Hawking. She was trying too hard to be a neuromuscular person applying full makeup and saying, "Ganwaar pasand hai mujhe." Her face didn't look convincing at all. Netizens called her a school of overacting...we too agree.
Bauua does some over-the-top acting to impress Aafia and pretends to be falling in love with her.
Katrina Kaif
Later Katrina Kaif comes into the picture. Like always, she is looking hot. In the movie, she plays the role of a superstar struggling with alcoholism, who one day meets Bauua and kisses him on the road. USP of the trailer is Katrina's liplock with Bauua (SRK). And he falls in love with her, but their romance doesn’t pan out as well and one day Katrina throws him out of her house.
Katrina's character will have all the glitz and glamour on one side, and on the other side, it will have shades of darkness.
It was said that Katrina did extensive research on Hollywood actors, who also fought alcoholism, to play the part with exactness. But we can't see that in the trailer. Sorry Kat, you failed to make an impact on the audience.
Here are some reactions:
