Sirsa godman’s MSG – the Messenger movie doesn’t deserve any rating-DNA

Chandigarh 14 Feb 2014:The minute I learnt that I will be reviewing MSG: The Messenger, a part of me dreaded it but at the same time was intrigued on what this film had to offer. I guessed that MSG would be mindless and the same is in fact, true. The songs ‘never ever’ and “Desh ke liye” are running through my mind as I pen down my opinion. Might I add, it’s not helpful! But I’ll try so here we go:What it’s about.

MSG is about nothing yet everything. Let’s just say that Dera Saccha Sauda is an organisation/product which needs to be advertised and Sirsa godman’s Gurmeet Ram Rahim has taken the responsibility to do the same. Where commercials run for two minutes, MSG is an ad that runs for three hours and is painful. Meet Rahim Singh Insan, who claims to be a “fakir,” a “messenger of God.” Well the same would have made sense had he not had the ability to fly, or bless every Tom, Dick or Harry by emitting blue rays through his palms. “Messenger” of God or God himself? That’s the big question. Coming to the story, that can be summed up in one line. There are a bunch of goons who wish to kill Gurmeet aka Guruji but the latter defeats them each time and with the way he does makes me ask, Rajinikanth who? There are three ladies in his Aashram; Alice who is a Ukranian with a purpose to produce a documentary on Guruji, Kasam a former prostitute who was rescued by Guruji and Muskan, a devotee. One of them has been placed as a suicide bomber to kill him. Haww! Which one is it? Pucker up all the guts you have to watch this movie and find out for yourself! Coming back to Guruji, not only does he preach the idea of love, but also wears clothes that would give Lady Gaga something to cry about. Did I mention that he is a photographer and footballer too? Ah don’t underestimate the power of our ROCKSTAR saint folks. After all you are his “love charger!”

Verdict: This is probably the first time where I am compelled to give a film a rating as this. 0 star it is for MSG: The Messenger.
