Amazingly, the skilled Chak De team of director Shimit Amin and writer Jaideep Sahni manage to capture this honesty across the entire film, making Rocket Singh a pleasurable experience. Of course, it helps that they have a magician called Ranbir Kapoor by their side.
There seems to be no stopping Ranbir, who is leaping light years ahead of his peers with every new release. Forget the superstar tag, for that is already his to own. More interestingly, Ranbir seems to be a star who is a naturally brilliant actor, willing to break convention to essay different roles, even if they be non hero like. After Wake up Sid and Ajab Prem, Ranbir once again delivers an absolutely flawless performance, this one even more remarkable since he plays a sardar. After years of watching sardars being used as the butt of all jokes in Bollywood, it is great to see a simple, hard working sardar, gently played by Ranbir.
Rocket Singh is the story of Happy Singh Bedi, a middle class sardar boy who stays with his dadaji (Prem Chopra). After barely managing to pass college, Happy gets a job as a trainee salesman at At Your Service (AYS) company, which sells computers. Even as he is learning the tricks of selling, a customer asks for a bribe. The honest Happy not only refuses, but also lodges a complaint. This freaks out the owner Puri (Manish Choudhari), who publicly humiliates him and relegates him to a desk job. The entire sales team is punished for the lost order, so they too start disliking him intensely. Finally, in a trying scene, Puri gleefully calls him a duffer and a gadha, the ultimate zero. From here on Happy decides to start his own company, called Rocket Sales, a reference to the paper rockets the office staff keeps pelting him with. The difference is that he continues to work in AYS office, where he pretends to be a duffer. Slowly he starts getting orders to assemble computers, and he soon involves a few colleagues, making all of them partners. Eventually Rocket Sales become such a threat, that Puri even offers to buy it out. From here on the screenplay gets a bit boring in bits, but Ranbir manages to hold it through.
A lot of Rocket Singh is shot in an office, making it a tough film to handle. Yet, Shimit Amin, who directed Ab tak chhapan and Chak de, displays a sure, steady hand. The dialogues in Rocket Singh are sharp yet easy on the ear, as expected from the talented Jaideep Sahni, and Pocket mai rocket hai is a bouncy track, though it lends a lot to the imagination. The ensemble cast, from the sales team to friends, does a great job, while Prem Chopra, Gauhaar Khan and D Santosh are impressive. In the end, Rocket Singh may not be a ha ha laugh aloud entertainer, but it is certainly a different story, well told. The masses may not take to Rocket Singh, but the classes should.
