Rocket Singh Salesman of the year

Ranbir Kapoor is a supposedly a straightforward sardar who wants to be a salesman. He gets a job in AYS, a computer supplying and servicing company. The first day he meets his boss Nithin, a hard boiled saleas man who has every trick in the book and some that are not in the book or anywhere else for that matter. He shows the trainee the ropes. We are also introduced to Prem Chopra as Ranbir's grandfather who excels in this movie otherwise populated by youngsters. Singh is sent to a client by himself a few days later and the client asks for a bribe. Now this is the most common thing in India and I found it hard to believe how naive  the character was. Apart from refusing outright, he writes a complaint and drops it in the company's complaint box. As is expected he is ostracized in office and asked to cold call till his training period is over, which is kind of wierd because the training period is when you can be fired without a notice. Anyway the siren receptionist feels sorry for him and gives him the number of customer who had sent an enquiry.

During the course of the sale he discovers that the computers can be assembled at a fraction of the cost of the branded ones (something im sure even a 10'th standard kid can tell you) and so sells the client( two pretty girls) the computer he assembles with the help of the office tech support( always on porn sites and never sleeps) Now the story so far was good, from here the scriptwriters who repeatedly paint the hero as a guy with high morals make him run an illegitimate business with stolen clients (The explanation given is that they are clients who are dissatisfied with AYS. But it is a list and its stealing.)The hero has no qualms about using office time, but keeps a list of amenities used so that he can pay his boss back. These idiosyncracies ruin the movie. Your main protagonist never gives bribes but is willing to commit fraud. A half hearted attempt to show him being humiliated and hence his actions are given, but fails to prop the story. If only that had been taken care of, the movie would have not been like reading a horrendous piece of misleading philosophy (eg Ayn Rand).

The hero obviously wins the day, but the message gets diluted. 5/10.
