Fan is a must watch for SRK and his brilliant performance. The film traces an obsessive fan who goes to meet his super star hero. He couldn’t meet his star but comes across another actor who abuses his hero. The fan kidnaps the actor and forces an apology out of him. He expects his super star to acknowledge his effort but what he gets in return is a stern warning with some police brutality. The fan turns into an enemy and tries to teach his super star a lesson. The film has one of the finest performances of SRK in a dual role. He excels as the fan. The arrogant super star with an attitude is a cakewalk role as he just needs to be his natural self ;). The film has some thrilling moments and some silly ones. The film lacks basic logic in many places and the director could have addressed this with some extra thought…perhaps all the thinking was spent in product placement such as western union or Hyundai. There are three chasing sequences to just increase the thrill and we could have been content with one less. No songs is a good decision as the run time makes the film interesting. A Foodie like me can’t tolerate one scene. The fan takes Sohan halwa to give to his hero but when the box falls down and opens you see Karachi/Bombay halwa in it! The last 20 min is a bit dragging and you wait endlessly for the end.
