Product Description

Harpreet Singh Bedi (Ranbir Kapoor) has just graduated, and his marks are, well, let s say a little embarrassing. But marks never stopped him from dreaming of an exciting and adventurous career, and they never will.

He takes a deep, positive breath and dives into the world of sales, rumoured to be an ultra cool career for all smart people blocked from entering medical, engineering or business schools by brainless entrance exams. It is everything he dreamt of, with its smooth dressing, smoother talking men and women who can sell ice to an Eskimo, dreams to an insomniac, and a lifetime mobile connection to a dying man.

But soon, his idea of success begins clashing with the strange ways of these professionals and bosses he looked up to.

Rocket Singh - Salesman of the Year is the sometimes thoughtless, sometimes thoughtful story of a fresh graduate trying to find a balance between the maddening demands of the professional way, and the way of his heart and stumbling upon a crazy way which turned his world upside down, and his career right side up.

Welcome to the world of sales boss!

5.0 out of 5 stars People Buy From People!! 4 Oct 2011
By Darcy
Format:DVD
Not being a great fan of modern day Bollywood, we thoroughly enjoyed this film. A brilliant performance by the lead actor Ranbir Kapoor, aka Rocket Singh!! The film just goes to show that one can be honest, professional and ethical to get ahead in the field of sales.

When Harpreet, completes his college education, he is lured to the field of sales with the thoughts of instant riches. Yet, he soon finds out that his honest personality is a stumbling block to the road to success, but instead of joining his unethical colleagues, he decides to set up his own company! Through sheer hard work, ingenuity and an honest attitude, he starts to build a profitable empire of his own and that's when the real trouble starts.

A great film for the whole family (12+, as contains swearing) to enjoy, especially if you wish to teach your children, that one can become successful in today's profit obsessed society and that through using sound principles such as integrity, honesty and team work, that it is still possible to get to the top.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not your average fare 25 Jan 2010
By Amit Talpade - Published on Amazon.com
Rocket Singh is a simple story and has been told well in parts. This is a story of a struggling salesman who takes up the job because his grades are not good enough to pursue a MBA. The direction is good but falters in the last hour.Harpreet Singh Bedi is Ranbir Kapoor who lives with is grandfather Prem Chopra and plays the struggling guy at work. The movie gives sort of gives you an insight in the life of the salesman and the things that they have to do to get the job done.
Shimit Amin is the director and his narrative does not touch the heights of Chake De or that matter Ab Tak Chappan.
The scenes with the boss both the conversation on the phone and the meeting at the end are the highlights of this movie.
The relationship between the other salesmen is underdeveloped.
Dialogue writing is funny and some clever one liners make you smile.
The minuses
Direction could have been a bit tighter as well as the editing
The last hour could have changed the course, like it did in Chak De and made this movie a must watch
But watch it for Ranbir Kapoor , Manish Chaudhari who plays his boss. Their acting is simply superb. Ranbir Kapor is getting better with each movie. I gave it three stars 1/24/10
5.0 out of 5 stars Honor vs. Money 3 Jun 2012
By TxAzLizzie - Published on Amazon.com

Rocket Singh is a little different than most Bollywood films that I've seen. There is virtually no singing and dancing. The comedy is good, but there's also quite a bit of drama. Singh is just out of college and enters the workforce as a tech salesman. He quickly learns that honesty is not the policy in sales and struggles to find a way of remaining honest while making money in his job. Ultimately, Singh finds a way to do both. Ranbir Kapoor was very good in the role of 'Rocket' Singh, though I don't recall seeing him in other films before.
A very enjoyable film about the realities of forging a career in today's world of incredible competition.
4.0 out of 5 stars Honesty is the best policy 4 Jun 2010

As Rocket, Ranbir Kapoor gives a good performance showing a bit more maturity than Wake Up, Sid. Overall, I liked the premise and the development of the story. However, this is not a normal, Bollywood story - the main character is as honest as the day is long. In this respect, this movie was very refreshing. I liked the way the characters were developed as well as the pace of the movie. I would definitely recommend seeing this one!
