New Trailer & Poster For RA.ONE And More!

It kinda feels like Shah Rukh Khan and the guys over at Red Chillies are going to shoot their promotional wad a bit early, but oh well.  Another new trailer has arrived for the event film of 2011 from Bollywood, Shah Rukh Khan and Anubhav Sinha's Ra.One.  This time around, the trailer gives us a LOT of new footage highlighting the special effects on the film, which look like some next level stuff for Indian films.  One area where Indian film falls short even with the best of intentions is the look of their CGI, it always looks fake, even in their big budget productions, and so the look of this film so far gives me hope that perhaps they've found a way to conquer it.

Another bit of video, significantly less encouraging, surfaced yesterday.  The video trailer for the romantic song Dildaara showcases the relationship between SRK's Shekar and his lady love Sonia, played by Kareena Kapoor.  There are several problems with this.  The song is absolutely beautiful and I have no problem with it at all, however the imagery that they've put along with it is horrifying.  There is SRK in a ridiculous perm wig acting like a dork and nearly killing the woman to whom he is proposing marriage.  The clip is just filled with hokey Bollywood dramatics that undercut a lot of the impressive visuals I've seen in other footage.  I just sincerely hope that there is very little of the second clip and a lot of the first.

Ra.One is set to have its big audio launch on Monday, September 12th, so perhaps we can look forward to even more promotional pummeling next week.  Ra.One opens worldwide October 26th.
