Band Baaja Baaraat (2010)
January 2010: Pyaar Impossible! – aka Uday Chopra’s Face Impossible! Predictable geek-gets-girl rom-com plays like Shrek for the Bollywood-lovin’ junta; fails. May 2010: Badmaash Company – aka Lol, Aditya Chopra, what you smokin’, bro? ‘Honesty is the best policy’ theme stretched thin [all 2.5 hours of it.] The climax: Hero saves the day by marketing ...
Angulimaal (1960)
Director Vijay Bhatt is noted for his period films, like “Ram Rajya,” “Bharat Milap”, “Chaitanya Mahaprabhu” and “Baiju Bawra.” An addition to this impressive record is “Angulimaal,” in which Bharat Bhooshan plays the title role. The story, set in Bhuddhist times, depicts the life of a scholarly youth who is destined to live two lives ...
Break Ke Baad (2010)
We all know Bollywood gives us unrealistic expectations about men and Break Ke Baad makes those expectations rise to the sky. It’s a story about the ideal guy, Abhay (Imran Khan) who technically any girl wouldn’t leave no matter what happens. But here’s an exception; Aaliya (Deepika Padukone). Abhay and Aaliya are childhood friends and ...
Dabangg (2010)
Ladies and gentlemen, it’s official. Salman Khan is the new Rajnikanth. Move over, aged Robot, and take that flimsy toupee with you. If 2009’s superhero action-hero flick Wanted wasn’t enough, Salman Khan’s biceps returned to gravity-defying action avatar in Dabangg. Legions of Salman Khan fans must be sighing in relief as to the rustic Zandu ...
Action Replayy (2010)
Is there more to Vipul Shah’s take on Back To The Futuresque film than just the item number ‘Zor Ka Jhatka’, or is Aishwarya looking attractive in a jumpsuit all that we can look forward to? All these questions and more can and will be answered by watching Action Replayy (AR), the latest work of ...
Guzaarish (2010)
Guzaarish is an ambitious film, no less than we would expect from a director like Sanjay Leela Bhansali who treats cinema as art and whose passion for his art shines through every frame of his films. It deals with the controversial issue of euthanasia or mercy killing. Guzaarish chronicles the petition to be allowed to ...
Teesri Kasam (1966)
This film script is adapted from Phanishwar Nath’s short story, ‘Mare Gaye Gulfam’. Produced by the great lyricist, Shailendra, it became famous as his nemesis, as the financial strains and stresses of making the film over four years, followed by its box-office failure, led to his early death. However, it won the national award, the ...
Sangam (1964)
Sangam is Raj Kapoor’s first colour film and the first one that he shot abroad. Although other film-makers had gone abroad before, this movie created a trend that grew when colour cinema added to the spectacle, until by the 1990s it became almost mandatory to have scenes shot in Switzerland, however irrelevant to the story. ...
Bobby (1973)
Although Raj Kapoor is now best remembered for the films he made with Nargis in the 1940s and 50s, such as Awaara and Shree 420, this late film is justifiably regarded as key to his oeuvre. After the box-office failure of Mera naam joker (MNJ) (1969), it seemed that Raj Kapoor’s long career as star, ...
Awaara (1951)
Awaara was the film that established Raj Kapoor as a major international film star; it also became one of the most popular Hindi films overseas (mainly in Asia and the former USSR) and was remade in many other national cinemas. It was also the first film Raj Kapoor made in his own studios and with ...
