    What happens when two really good looking actors come together for an action comedy entertainer? Well, expectations accentuate big time and you do look forward to how the entire film would play on the big screen!


    This was exactly my reaction on checking out Sidharth Malhotra and Jacqueline Fernandez in the rip-roaring promo of A Gentleman. The signs were there right from the time the First Look posters and a few stills from the film were out. It was good to see the manner in which the makers [Fox] had started their campaign, what with several nuggets been thrown around the online medium before unleashing the full length promo.

    The good news is - the promo doesn't disappoint at all!


    For starters, I do get a solid impression that there would be a distinct Raj-DK touch to the storytelling. Whether it is critically acclaimed Shor In The City or largely panned Happy Ending, the common factor in the films directed by Raj-DK is that they haven't let go off their unique narrative style. That was in good force in Go Goa Gone as well and with their good hold over modern protagonists based out of urban India (or Indians based abroad), you do expect certain quirks and mannerisms associated with the characters on screen.

    This is what's clearly happening in case of A Gentleman as well which could well have been any other fun crime comedy with a double role angle thrown in. However, the promo does convey loud and strong that the film would be much beyond that. No wonder, with an inherent charming persona that Sidharth comes with, you are sure that the actor would bring in a realistic feel (a la Kapoor & Sons) even in a much more commercial affair like A Gentleman.

    As for Jacqueline, she knows where her strength lies and the manner in which she compares herself to a celebrity with a straight face, you fall in love with her gorgeous self all over again. It is tough to be inherently gorgeous but project your character as someone who possibly isn't really so and still feels somewhere in the corner of her heart that she actually is a great looker. It is this beautiful part of hr internal and external self that makes Jacqueline a super spicy ingredient of A Gentleman.

    Not that the core storyline of the film comes across as something outrageously new or original. There are only two possibilities here after all - either Sidharth is actually in a double role where there is a simple him and a stylish him, or he is actually the same guy impersonating as the other. Time and again there have been films made with such confusion thrown around.


    Of course what would make this double role different from the rest is the treatment. After all, on one side there is a David Dhawan and Anees Bazmee school of comedy for such double roles, and then there is a contemporary world like the one created by Raj and DK where the double role promises to be presented quite differently.


    It is this difference in world that promises to unleash on the big screen that makes A Gentleman exciting. Of course, add to that Suniel Shetty in a brand new look coming back on the big screen and you know that the adage of 'men will be men and boys will be boys' come true.
