Krrish vs Superman - 1 !!

Welcome to the war of the month. :) With news channels sucking all they can from Krrish vs Superman, the 'aam aadmi' wonders what the hell is going on.

Because many of them even don't know Superman. It is kind of roti vs Pizza. Now how many Indians know or have tasted Pizza ?? ( Plz remember there is a lot of India other than Bangalore or Delhi :P )

Nevertheless this makes an interesting discussion and I was really entertained by a fight between 2 ladies on a news channel, with one hailing Krrish and the other defending Superman, though I am sure that none of them really gives a damn about either. :D

But whomever you prefer, one thing is clear, Indians have declared Krrish as the winner. And this movie is creating record box-office history. So, as far as money-makers are concerned Krrish is the king now.

But lets move to a logical comparison between them. First both are different. Lets not forget that one is an Indian and the other, an American Superhero. Their cultural heritage and environment is different. Their powers are different. Their styles are different. So, as such the comparison might be futile.

But ofcourse Superman is technically better. Little doubt about that. But then I gotta say that the stunts in Krrish are great enough to excite the audience and even make them jump. I myself have witnessed people getting really excited (especially children) while watching Krrish taking those long strides. More importantly, Hrithik Roshan makes Krrish appear very real when compared to Brandon Routh performing Superman.

And I gotta say Superman costume is at most funny. I mean, u got a gown hanging from your neck, S printed on your chest and a red underwear over your pant !! Seems Superman, has dressed up in hurry. ;-P

And lets not forget that Krrish is an Indian movie with Indian budget, so its gotta be technically lagging.

Well, there are so many other things to be discussed. Lets see guys what you have to say,

To be continued ...

one major view i liked in the blog was the roti vs pizza comparison...it was gr8..though krrish was gud than superman..but conceptually both were same ..that is both r super heroes rescuing ppl..superman is technically better..but krrish also stood up to the standards of hollywood graphics..and its going to rattle the box office..gud one...
