Salman Khan and Ajay Devgan complemented each other in London Dreams

After ten years, we see two talented actors- Salman Khan and Ajay Devgan once again on the big screen and this time they do not disappoint their fans. London Dreams is about how two friends- one possessing passion and the other talent, who turn against each other and reunites at the end. The main theme of the story is inspired from Amadeus, the Hollywood movie that won eight Oscars. The story starts from the village of India. Mannu (Salman Khan) and Arjun (Ajay Devgan) were childhood friends but they had nothing in common except their family’s musical background. Arjun then goes to London and forms a band but things do not change until he brings Mannu from Punjab.

The London Dreams is an enjoyable but it has some flaws and the biggest of all is its music. Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy’s music does not complement the movie.

Bollywood Hungama said:

LONDON DREAMS is about a rock band, about music, about concerts and the music had to be the soul of the film. Unfortunately, it's not! The songs have been filmed in the most energetic fashion, but how one wishes the music was one of the strengths of the film.

Also, the film could've concluded when the two friends re-unite at the station. Adding one more song thereafter only dilutes the impact of the emotionally correct sequence that has just been witnessed. Besides, the song in question hasn't been promoted either, so it only comes across as an aberration.

Salman Khan is a talented actor and when it comes to play characters that have intense emotions, he can play it with great ease and spontaneity. Ajay Devgan’s performance was also very well. The two actors just complemented each other in the movie. Asin, who played Priya and looks great with Salman Khan on the screen. Overall, London Dreams is worth your money al the way.
