GHAJINI

Movie Review

Director: A.R. Murugadoss
Writers: Piyush Mishra (dialogue), A.R. Murugadoss
Actors: Aamir Khan, Asif Ahmed and Tinnu Anand
Released: December 23, 2008
Running Time: 183min.



A man with anterograde amnesia, meaning that he does not recall anything after a traumatic event which happened to him years ago. He is short term memory loss, yet is able to remember everything that happened to him before his Fiance was killed.
He tries to retain his short term memory by taking Polaroid Pictures and by Tatooing himself with key phrases. He tries to retain some short term memory so that he can plan to avenge his fiance's murder.

This movie is similar to an English Movie, "Memento", in which the lead actor also has anterograde amnesia and tries to piece together his life with the goal of vengeance.
Fast-paced, although not very well acted... the story line holds your interest throughout the movie.
