  • Movie Review: Ek Second Jo Zindagi Badal De (2010)
    There is one proverb which tells that whatever is written in one’s destiny in some way or other the incidents actually happen. But if we fight against it and make the incident happen in a different way - then what will happen? The Movie EK SECOND JO ZINDAGI BADAL DE revolves around a girl named Rashi - played by Manisha Koirala. She has played the parallel roles...

  • Movie Review: Raajneeti (2010)
    I’ve never really followed politics. But I am truly fascinated by ‘Mahabharata’. Lord Krishna, Arjun, Karan, Bheema, Duryodhan… are legendary and the clash between Pandavas and Kauravas is equally unforgettable. Prakash Jha’s RAAJNEETI talks of warring cousins, dynastic rule and electoral politics of the Hindi heartland, besides the vicious...

  • Movie Review: Kites (2010)
    The bigger the budget… the bigger the names… the bigger the hype, hoopla and razzmatazz… the bigger the expectations from the film. KITES has some of the biggest names in the business - Rakesh Roshan, Anurag Basu and Hrithik Roshan, to name a few - and the film, therefore, carries this gargantuan responsibility on its shoulders. It has to soar higher...

  • Movie Review: Bumm Bumm Bole (2010)
    There are children’s films. And there are films about children.Over the years, Iranians filmmakers - and now Iraqis too - have emerged as master storytellers in the latter type.Priyadarshan, our very own filmmaking machine known to stray away from his forte, comedy, now and then to come up with a thought-provoking film that can even lap a National award, interprets Iranian...

  • Movie Review: Badmaash Company (2010)
    Perhaps, like in the one fantastic film he was great in, there really are two Shahid Kapoors. One is a decent actor, the sort of person Imtiaz Ali can coerce into impressive restraint, and Vishal Bhardwaj can work miracles with.The other, more frequently seen brother is a talentless hack, one of those young dancing boys who purses his lips to show emotion and wallows in...

  • Movie Review: Housefull (2010)
    After a long painful drought (thanks to the exam season and IPL matches) of plain boring to irritating films arrives Sajid Khan’s Housefull. While in totality it does fall short of being the big great summer entertainer that it is been claiming to be, it however manages to bring many laughs for you. However, eventually it settles down in familiar territory. Housefull...

  • Movie Review: Apartment (2010)
    Suddenly, schizophrenia and memory loss seem to be the new flavours of the season. First GHAJINI [memory loss], then KARTHIK CALLING KARTHIK [schizophrenia], then PRINCE [memory loss], now APARTMENT talks of a schizophrenic who spells havoc in another woman’s life. Jag Mundhra comes up with a fairly taut thriller, which is absorbing in parts. Inspired by the Hollywood...

  • Movie Review: Paathshaala (2010)
    Teaching is a noble profession. But does it hold true today? Hasn’t education succumbed to modernization as everything else, which is ruled by commercialization and consumerism in this age of rat-race? We read in the newspapers about students being bogged down under study pressures, parents burdened with fees hikes, teachers punishing students inhumanly, some students...
