Khans VS Bawejas

So , two newcomers on the block,both with a big launch pad - one backed up by his 'maamu' & the other by his dad. One has a refreshingly different style of acting , the other is loosely called 'a sad Hritik clone'. One's film is a youthful film about a group of college friends and their journey (a very succesfull formula considering the successes of Rang De basanti,etc.), & the others film is a sci-fi futuristic film set from 2008-2050 (the scrip was ready in the 1990s but Mr harry baweja though it'll be too early for the indian audiences).Indian audience hugely preferred youthful exuberance to futuristic but agonisingly slow love story . (my tip : the bawejas shouldve expected this considering the lenght n pace of the film n must've placed 'disprin' as an 'in-film placement' advertisement..it would be sellin like hot cakes..."1 strip free per ticket"..)
Maybe im too biased towards the new Khan on the block, but some moments of the film really made me feel as if im on a roller coaster ride...n man! the ride was thrillin...im willin to go again provided i get gud company..this offer is negotiable...but i also feel a lil sympathetic towards Harman cuz i relle found his 2 b skilled considerin the reviews of ppl who've worked on the film (he dances as if he was born on a wave :) ).
But not 2 worry, jes got lodsa offers with Anees basme , n also the backin n support of his family n sm reknowed directors n producers ..who still think hes 'investible' ...but let credit not b taken away from Imran.
Im relle lookin forward to the new entrants of the industry with Ranbir kapoor (bachna ae haseenois gonna rok! ) n Co...
lets hope for the best ...comments alwayz welcome..adios

Sarkar Raj!

Let me b honest , I'm not the biggest fan of the Bachchan family cuz of their strained relations with SRk (of whom im a die-hard fan).This was exactly what was on my mind before n while watching this movie.Little did i know what was in store for me.The power-packed performances relle left me stunned...& for the next few s i was literally talking like a powerful politician (ala BigB)..giving all philosophical answers to seemingly normal questions.
What i liked about the film is what ill focus on :
Big B (after juniorB's death) ..was amazingly powerfull..unlike in the first half where he was like any other old man watching his son take over.
Junior Ab was like any young passionate politician son
Ash was refreshingly gorgeous, & in the end provided a mysteriously wicked twist ( with the way she said " chai lana"..something different for some NRI whose not even remotely used to the cutting chai )
Ramu...what i liked about him was the way he showed the speeches of the bachchans - the one in their bunglow etc etc ..One of the best part was the one wherein BigB comes to know that his old friend (the village oldie) was the one behind everything..& the way that guy was shown laughing with power with the success of his plan ( yeah..like Ramu would sit and let someone make a mockery out of the bachchans)..
i would end by saying that all your comments on my view on the movie are welcome...so feel free 2 express! Adios.

Raced 2 the finish!

Talk about broken promises.....first it was reliance power (u bought it?) .n now most recent movie Race.
The 'wannabe' flm relle got to me....it was a film trying to b a hit but desperately failing at it.
Look at the starcast : Saif , Bips, Katrina, and others...the promos of the title song Race saanson kiii (which was a HUGE letdown when i actually heard it in the theatre) were bang on.Saif with a guitar...Bips with or actually without wearing too much ..got every ones attention.The kids were
dying to get a glimpse of the film.Little did people know that admist all this glitz and glamour, the film would lack the MOST important part of a film : the script.With the two brothers just double crossing each other (the twists and turns were something new to bollywood),and a 'foodie' detective (he literally ate every fruit available..including sugarcane...if u call it a fruit).I got a minor shock when i knew that Akshay was the younger sibling.But inspite all this...a dazzling opening sourted out the films way to BO success.After the star cast, the best thing about the film were its two chart busters : Race saansoo ki and Pehli nazar mein. Actually the best part of the movie (n this is strictly personal ) was the part wherein i bought popcorn n cola for myself.
At the end im happy i didnt watch this blunder in a multiplex and burn a hole in my pocket.
Adios.
