Jai Ho (People's Man) - One small idea that multiplies into a big thought to keep people together, to see them extend help, an aim to claim 'being human', to act on what is right as a Veer/Hero, to go beyond fear (Darr ke aage Jeet hai); is what this movie about. Rest all elements do not matter. The fact that this movie is a remake of not so successful attempt made earlier itself is appreciable, to see that the concept should reach more audience and people should get that strongly and put it in practice. Well, practice makes a person perfect and practicing this thought, makes a Person. This film is not for profits and the commercial elements included in it are to ensure today's viewers are pulled together to get the actual thought in it. Salman surely is a People's Man on this act. Those who cannot act on this thought, least they could appreciate his act by watching it. Possible that it awakens the 'Sota hua Sher/Sleeping Tiger' one day. 'Jai Ho' means 'Be Victorious' and it is only a treat and no retreat for the fans, but with a message.
