Inspite of good performances Bombay Velvet flopped.


Ranbir Kapoor’s Bombay Velvet stands out as the most stylish film of 2015. Anurag Basu the director recreated Mumbai of the 1950s. Vikas Bahl and Vikramaditya Motwane produced the film. Music was composed by Amit Trivedi. The film was shot partly in Mumbai and partly in Sri Lanka. Ranbir Kapoor played the character of Johnny Balraj a street fighter of the 1950s. He was ambitious and was in affair with Anushka Sharma playing the role of a jazz singer Rosy Noronha. It was shown that Anushka Sharma’s parents sold her to Portuguese singer
Fernandez at an early age. He used to beat her up and abuse her. One day she assaulted him and escaped from Goa to Mumbai. She sang jazz songs in the Hotel Bombay Velvet in the Geeta Dutt style. Ranbir Kapoor and Satyadeep Misra were spotted by Karan Johar playing the role of Kaizad Khambhata, wealthy parsee in Mumbai. Ranbir Kapoor went into deal with Karan Johar to be the owner of Bombay Velvet. Whoever came in the way of prosperity Ranbir killed one after the other. There were a lot of character who were powermongering and wanted control including Manish Choudhury playing the role of newspaper editor Jimmy Mistry, Siddharth Basu playing the role of Mayor of Mumbai. They used Ranbir Kapoor in all the evil acts including kidnapping comrade leader in land acquisition case. Ranbir Kapoor brought a prostitute and made her sleep in the house of Anushka Sharma and did fit a time bomb. The operation was to save Anushka Sharma. He took Anushka Sharma and jumped from 1st floor and made the world believe she was dead. At the end of the film Karan Johar kidnapped Anushka Sharma and brought Ranbir Kapoor to Bombay Velvet which was sealed by police officer KK Menon. Karan Johar made Ranbir Kapoor fight against the street fighter. He fired at Anushka. She survived. Ranbir killed Karan Johar. At the end the police officer who was agent of the Mayor Siddharth Basu killed Ranbir Kapoor. The film was based on real life story. Anurag Kashyap recreated Mumbai of 1950s. It was very stylish andaz. Ranbir Kapoor acted very well and showed glimpses of Raj Kapoor. Anushka Sharma did well. Karan Johar amazed everyone with his acting skills. The music of Amit Trivedi mesmerized the audience. The song “fifi” sung by Suman Sridhar and “behroopia” sung by Mohit Chauhan and Neeti Mohan became smash hits.
