The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

The casting department has done a wonderful job of selecting the right person for the role. ¤ Sharman Joshi:: The devil's advocate part was crass.¤ Gul Panag, Isha, Amrita Arora:: Apt choice for the role.¤ Sohail Khan:: Restraint is the keyword dude.¤ Sharat Saxena:: Apt choice, however should the role should have been more resilient as in the book.¤ Dalip Tahil:: Apt choice but should have been honest to his character in the book by using more management jargon's.¤ Suresh Menon:: Oh just shut up and go away!¤ Salman Khan & Katrina:: Pass.Conversation with God:: A more powerful voice would have apt. And since it forms the crux of the movie, should have been fleshed out better.The costumes could have been paid more attention. Visually aesthetic in "live" isn't necessarily on-screen as well. It is a rarity to see a book effectively translated to screen and needless to say this attempt tanks. The execution plays truant and and to a certain extent screenplay is to be blamed too. The movie appears to be Cut-and-paste of 15-minute chunks. In addition, there was no need incorporate everything in the book (Bridget Jones Diary should be a good moot point!)?

I wish i can give this film a big zero if IMDb allowed me to and if they had the option. Let me briefly tell you what this film is all about and you tell me if this film is good. Its about Salman Khan who sits down in a lounge after doing a concert and suddenly Katrina comes in. She mysteriously sits next to him and turns her laptop in. As usual Salman will try and flirt with her, and she decides to tell him a story. The story is about these 4 or 5 guys who work at a call centre. They all have some very minor every day problems in their life's. The films starts getting very slow and boring. Next thing you know you closed your eyes and then you open them and its almost 2 hours gone in the film. You see them in a car about to fall. They think they will die, but they receive a phone call that is apparently from god. God tells them that they should be grateful to be living. This is reminding me of a Hollywood film Saw, where Jigsaw killer does a similar thing. Anyway suddenly they start changing their lives all because of the phone call. Next thing a sleepy bored looking Salman Khan tells Katrina, who is she and Katrina does not answer. She disappears and guess what, Salman's bodyguards didn't see any girl. She was probably god, what the hell is this garbage. Anyway Sohail and Sharman are usually funny and try their best but still were poor. All other girls gave a disgraceful performance. Amrita's was playing a humble wife was a bore to watch. Anyway this film is a poor poor poor poor poor show all the way.

Of course. Agree to that fact that, even though you cant judge a book by its movie and movies cant live up to the book at all. (except Godfather and Gone with the Wind). What if you make a movie out of a _________ book (fill in the blanks) that has gained enough popularity un-necessarily. The only good thing about this "one night @ a call Centre" authored by Chetan Bhagat is that i could finish the book straight three hours. No more comments on the book anymore.On top of that you have the author of the book being the scriptwriter, then this got me thinking, why would i purposely spoil my own product?? As the author would be thinking "Dont i love what i am creating, I have already created a book which people have not liked too much, and some people have. Now I will write for the movie too. Make it even worse and look at the box office figures the audience loves it." Clearly, not one of my best movies that i watched, but the experience of watching this movie Hello was good, because I watched for some Rs. 60 /- balcony where people the audience was actually directing Sharman Joshi what exactly to be done in the car with Gul Panag, during a censor board certified sex scene in the movie.Gul Panag is not any more counted as one of my favourite actress. Post Dor, it was her performance that bowled me over. But after this movie, it was just about nothing.

Bummer ! Yes, Bollywood does it yet again, successfully adding one more flop flick to it's "2008 flop-list" and simultaneously increasing the odds in favor of my ever growing thoughts of putting a full stop to viewing their movies whence I'm afraid I must admit, if I don't get a hit and I betcha, I really mean a big hit soon Bollywood won't see my face again with its movies that are no more than a blot of mustard on the shameless faces of the entire crew involved, needless to mention the so called "promisingly huge cast" being used for the greater bad and acceleratingly increasing unrepairable damage being caused, primarily mental, to the blockbuster-expecting viewers inhabiting God's whole green earth who enter the theater happy-face like an expecting mother and come out ruined-face as if the mother just unexpectedly lost her baby whilst causing me no dismay or even a bit of concern as I never enter a theater expecting anything great from Hindi cinema and that is the least I'm asking from you in lieu of this this entire one-sentence review...LOL
