Since the lord moves in as ways as mysterious as screenplay writers, Tapasvi has a direct connection to Jagat Janani. His search for the stone brings him in contact with Anushka Sharma’s television reporter Jagat Janani, nursing a broken heart after her Pakistani boyfriend (Sushant Singh Rajput) ditched her at the altar, and Tapasvi, Saurabh Shukla’s white-robed fraud. PK, like ET before him, needs the device to go home. A godman (Saurabh Shukla) is passing off a blue-hued stone as the god Shiva’s holy object, but the glowing bauble is actually an interplanetary travel device that has brought alien PK (Aamir Khan) to earth.
In PK, Hirani and co-writer Abhijat Joshi direct the laughs against both a specific target and a cosmic one. A minor character from Lage Raho Munnabhai, an astrologer with disproportionate influence played by Saurabh Shukla, seems to have inspired Hirani’s latest offering. These servings of palatable rebellion have proven hugely popular with the multiplex herd, making Hirani one of the most successful directors in recent Hindi film history. His movies preach non-conformism and off-the-wall thinking using a package of populist elements (a big-name star cast, songs, bright and happy colours, a boy-meets-girl scenario), commonsensical humour and simplistic solutions. Hirani has previously poked fun at corruption in the medical profession ( Munnabhai MBBS), the abandonment of Mahatma Gandhi’s values in his country ( Lage Raho Munnabhai) and the creativity-crushing rote learning Indian system of education. Hirani’s latest message-oriented comedy giggles at the commercialisation of religion.
