Mumbai, Aug 29: After staying behind the lens and directing some of the industry’s big daddies, Farhan Akhtar, the director par excellence has had a role reversal as he faces the acid test with his acting-singing debut vehicle ‘Rock On’, hitting cinema theatres across the country today.
One of the year’s most anticipated flicks, ‘Rock On’ with it’s western title sans big banner or superstars will serve as the launch pad for not only Farhan who makes his crossover from direction to acting, but also Prachi Desai who shunned thriving TV career to live her Bollywood dreams.
As against the sob stories and real life drama inspired flicks that have been bombing at the BO, ‘Rock On’ with its uber chick look is sure to strike a chord with the youth of the country.
However, if it’s only the big star appeal that can convince you to burn that hole in your pocket, we suggest, take a sneak-peek into what this youth story is all about:
The film revolves around five main characters Aditya Shroff (Farhan Akhtar), Joe Mascarenhas (Arjun Rampal), KD (Purab Kohli), Rob Nancy (Luke Kenny) and Shahana Goswami (Prachi Desai).
Though the characters are distinctively different from one another, it’s their common passion for music that brings them together, forming one of the country’s most successful band.
Aditya Shroff comes from a privileged family and is forced to choose between his dreams and comfortable but spoiled rich life. Aditya sets off to follow his dreams. He meets up with Joe, KD and Rob. The three have their own distinct talents that tell them apart. Joe is a man of few words who lets his guitar do the talking; KD is a killer Drummer and Rob a quite problem solver of the band.
The four come together to form the most popular band in the country only to see it fall apart. Soon, they part ways and settle down in their respective lives. However in an attempt to relive their much cherished dream they reunite again.
Wonder what role does Prachi Deasi play?
Well, she plays Aditya’s wife who stands beside him through thick and thin. The two portray a struggling married couple trying to keep their marriage together.
Hmm… looks like the film is surely to ‘Rock’.
