'Bodyguard' is a rousing example of Bollywood-style pure escapist entertainment.


"Bodyguard" is a rousing example of Bollywood-style pure escapist entertainment. Handsome, muscular Lovely Singh (Salman Khan) -- an unlikely name for a martial arts superhero -- is hired by a business tycoon (Raj Babbar) to guard his beautiful daughter (Kareena Kapoor) from kidnappers. She understandably chafes at Lovely's intense surveillance and mischievously pretends via her cellphone to be another woman who is smitten by him -- only to realize she has fallen in love with him herself.

But the dutiful and humble Lovely, so shrewd and indomitable in the face of danger, is naive and even innocent in the matters of the heart. Director Siddique switches from bravura action to heady romance, with moments of broad comedy relief. The gracefully dynamic style even carries off a soap opera-like tear-jerking finale with aplomb. Lots of fun.

"Bodyguard." Unrated. Standard action/martial arts violence. Running time: 2 hours. In Hindi with English subtitles. At Culver Plaza and selected theaters.



Bodyguard has universal appeal: Siddique


'Bodyguard' has already been made in Malayalam, Tamil and Hindi languages and is now being made in Telugu, Kannada and even Bengali.


Director Siddique remakes his own film (from all the way back in 2010), giving it the full-on Bollywood treatment. Khan plays the titular protector, saddled with the name Lovely Singh; he is charged with looking after the daughter of the rich man who once saved his life. It's not much of a story, but the plot in this type of film is more of a loose frame on which to pin plenty of gags, dancing and romancing – which is what you get here. Plus, there are a few little twists at the end. And perhaps it's something to do with so much post-production work being outsourced, but Bollywood movies have improved dramatically in technical terms over the last few years. Here the fight and stunt sequences are afforded as much care and attention as the song and dance scenes; it's all top-notch stuff.
