Delhi 6 (2009)

Image
One thing for sure that I have learnt from the past years of movie watching is don’t manipulate any thing.When I went for Delhi 6 it was the same.I tried manipulating the movie before even watching it.Some times I feel I am getting over aggressive on movies which creates hype.Delhi 6 is a movie from the heart of Rakesh Omprakash Mehra .He had ambitiously made the lives around Delhi in the movie ,which is more of an characters than the story. Roshan ( Abishek Bacchan ) a half Muslim Half Hindu NRI who brings his dying grandmother to Delhi to spend her rest of her life in the place which she left years ago. Roshan quickly finds himself along with new friends and new relatives in Delhi.Director has made numerous characters whom he had been with for years to bring out the culture and heritage of Delhi.The part of Delhi is horrified by rumours of Kala Bandhar ( Black Monkey ) which creates trouble and its invisible also.Hindu Muslim conflict arises due to the Monkey chapter and Rosh...

Rab Ne Bane Di Jodi (2008)

Image
Whats wrong with Aditya Chopra.Its been thirteen years that he gave his first movie the phenomenoly loved movie Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge.Then now he gives his third movie Rab De Bane Di Jodi with lots of expectation .But is such a ridiculous and it’s a pain to watch the movie from the director who has directed DDLJ and Mohabatein . I am sorry to say I struggled to stay till the end but some how managed to watch it. The story is about ordinary couple Surender Sahni and Taani who get married due to destiny and they struggle to find love and show each other .Its about their love and how Surender Sahni a soft spoken working class guy wins Taani’s heart.Taani’s interest in dancing makes Surender disguises himself as Raj a freaky guy to participate in a reality show Jodi No: 1 with her .I am not sure the what the director wanted to tell but it was a third rate movie story which can not be excused at any cause. Sharukh Khan is the king of Bollywood no denials on that .But you can not make ...

Hindi Cinema is now better than Tamil Cinema !!?

Discussing about Cinema is something which every body likes ! My friends used to discuss hours and hours about the new movies and past movies .Our discussion used to dwell on many avenues from Direction,performance and script and so on.Every body nowadays agree that Tamil Cinema is in a huge dearth of stories and good direction.Bollywood has picked up the slot of making highly impressive movies . Nearly two to three movies releases in Bollywood every week and every fortnight there is a very good movie which is releasing.At any given day I love Tamil movie comparing to Bollywood.I can very well understand Hindi Language but its Tamil cinema which had always fascinated me from my childhood ,college and now.But I see this pathetic phase of Tamil cinema getting so thick and in the near future I don’t see a very good revival .But why there is a sudden change in the Hindi Movie ? There was Chak De India,Tare Zameen Par,Johnny Gaddar,Aamir,Rock On,Bheja fry,Jab we met,Rock on ,Wednesday can y...

Kidnap (2008)

Image
After continous good releases there is a speed breaker for Bollywood,Here it is the remake of two year ago movie Zinda in the name of Kidnap.It was publicised so heavily for Sanjay Dutt and Imran Khan but the movie is a big Yawn for its bad screenplay. Kabeer (Imran Khan )a young guy kidnaps Soniya (Minisha Lamba )who is the daughter of Mallika(Vidhya ) and Vikrant.They are a divorced Couple and Soniya lives with her mom.Kabeer wants revenge from Vikrant who has put him into Juvenile court in his childhood.Kabeer makes Vikrant run for her daughter and makes him realise the pain. I am totally convinced that the story line is incomplete and the screenplay.What was in intended to be conveyed was not at all conveyed and it puts up a very show when seen on screen.Every move and every scene is predictable and some very old fashioned chases in the streets of Mumbai and some old flashbacks make this much worse.Cant believe the same director who gave the exciting Dhoom series for us.Kidnap trav...
