Gazab prem ki gazab kahani  Simple love story, nothing special. Bunch of guys all are member of a local club, do not forget the name of it, Happy Club. Meet the president of Happy club, Mr. Prem (Ranbir Kapoor) the jolly good fellow, works towards making the world a happier place, reunites lovers. In short, he does nothing else apart from being happy and makes people happy. Prem meets Jenny (Katrina) and falls in love with her. Tries to win her heart and helps her all the way wherever she needs. Even helps her to get married to her love. Only at the end she realizes that Prem is her actual love. Sounds similar, right? Nothing to worry. It’s taken care of with the Treatment. Though there is little reminiscence from the Director’s cult classic Andaz apna apna. Like the fight scene towards the end at the Don’s den is a bit lousy but even it had its funny moments. In the movies Statue narrates the story and The Jesus is here at the end to reunite the couple. Sounds illogical, Go, Study physics then. Movie is good largely, though some sequences fail to tickle the funny bone. But there are many when you laugh your guts out. One of the many was when Prem decides to go for a Job and his dance steps where he goes as Jenny’s dance partner. Those are just too good. I can still smiling while writing about those funny steps. No wonder Raj Kumar Santoshi chosen him as Prem Ranbir scores brilliantly as an actor. There are moments when he moves you emotionally too. There is a scene to watch where is standing in the balcony , devastated , drunk and says to his friends ‘ Chhod na yaar, koi aur baat karte hain’. In this movie he comes as a complete package, I mean how many actors we have got who are good at comedy, emotions, drama, and the other stuff. He acts so effortlessly and remains cool. We have seen a confused youngster in Wake Up Sid a month ago and here he is again, doing a great job. Movie Excels in every department. Editing could have a bit better. but thas alright. Good casting supported with music you would love to croon while heading back to home. Prem ki naiyya hai ram ke bharose is a fun song to watch and mixed with some amazing choreography. Ranbir has got amazing moves, a great dancer revealed in this movie. He is fun to watch when he dances. Katrina compliments him perfectly. It’s a treat to watch them together; finally she has a film with the actor of her age and effervescence. Best possible pairing of its time. Katrina looks flawlessly stunning as always and she has got a pretty good comic timing too, had a great outing in this one with Ranbir. They look great together and share a great chemistry. Tu Jaane na is a treat to eyes and ear, wonderful cinematography in that particular song. Tera hone laga hoon is already a chartbuster and youth going crazy about this one. Atif’s yet another hit . Alisha’s voice is mesmerizing in this one. Main tera dhadkan Teri is sung well by KK - Sunidhi and HardKaur has provided enough thumps to the beats. No need to say how many star i would give to this one Par ritual hai, so 4/5 Go for it |

London Dreams I had Got some good vibes about the movie from some friends and media, went for it and was hugely disappointed at the end. Execution was not convincingly done. There was a lot of scope for emotions, as it was the call for the movie. Friendship b/t two protagonists were told in the movie but were not shown effectively. Ajay Devgan was found mostly on a Mogambo type huge couch most of the time with the agonized look in the eyes and with giving details of his dreams, passion, sacrifice and his obsession to make his dream come alive by giving a performance in Wembley stadium, London, Where his grand father failed and eventually fulfilling his London Dreams, But to me, Ajay Devgan never looked as a lead singer or a rocker, never. Though Salman somehow managed effortlessly to deliver the stage performance sort of thing. The both acted well, no questions regarding that. The Chemistry was also good between them. Ajay Devgan perfectly delivered the pain and anguish he was going through, when Salman steals the limelight from him unknowingly, leaves Ajay Devgan fuming with jealousy. Salman was good as an actor, sometimes he went over the board and overacted, But it was a rare and notable performance from him. Asin was looking pretty and that was the part she was supposed to do in the movie, No more space was left for her. Did not get any chance to show her acting prowess. Ranvijay (Roadies fame) wasted his chance completely. He does not impress and looks pretty dull when it comes in terms of acting. The other guy with Ranvijay was so forgettable that i cant even remember his face. Veteran Actor Om Puri was given a petty role. The Worst Part Lousy Music and monotonous singing from all of the singers, many times it’s hard to find if its not sung by Shankar mahadevan himself. The sheer joy of individual playback singing was somehow eluded. all was in Shanker mahadevan's style and most of the songs were in same pitch, Hard to find a difference among the songs. This was a definite drawback of music. And due to this the movie suffered largely. This could have been a great odyssey, but turned out to be mediocre attempt to incorporate music with the progress of the movie. Barson Yaaron was the best piece of work amidst all, Man ko ati bahve wasted in Shankar’s voice. It was a pretty funny romantic song and not a patriotic score for heavens' sake. And the voice had to be more jovial, though he tried a lot to deliver in this and gave a lot of variation but if you don’t have that kind of voice then there is no point left of trying. Just Imagine same song in the voice of Sonu Nigam or Udit narayan, You would find it a lot more hummable. But it’s all done and wasted like a piece of junk. Over All rating : 2.5/5 |

I was kind of convinced by the trailers and promos of the movie that its going to be even worse than Golmal Returns. And i was not even keen to watch it, But had to watch it to kill time, And i am happy that i did. The Director (Rohit Shetty) has regain his 'Golmal' touch to some extent in All the Best. Movie succeeds in its attempt to create laughter. the best part of the movie is that it at least does not irritate you in its attempt to create comedy. Movie drags initially and gives a deja-vu feeling due to its similar Goan background and few of characters. But it really picks after Sanju baba's entry. good to see him doing a fine job here, He was wasted in the movie Blue or i should that the movie was a waste. Anyway, lets get back to All The Best. The story is again on same plot of the usual bollywood type, based on the confusions, but thats not the all part and there are some other characters too who add some spices to the curry. I would like to mention that character of RGV, the Guy from the famous TV show Office-Office (Somebody tell me his name Pls). Sanjay Dutt excels in this movie, His Comic timing was superb in some sequences. Bipasha looks hot. Fardeen has done his best work so far in No Entry and cant go beyond that performance , i guess. But he managed the momentum going. Ajay Devgan is good. Mugdha lacks the timing and Director could have shown a bit more of her Oomph part which she has in plenty . She was almost ignored and no pity for that.Good to see Johny Lever after a long time in a decent role, though we already had enough of him, But this time he did not repelled for a change and was pretty tolerable.(He opens his mouth to speak only at the end of the movie) Music was not worth remembering and i dont even recallr a single song or any piece of melody from it even though i ve seen it only 2 hours before. Over all I would give it 3 and a half star out of five. A good time pass, and feel good comedy. |

Wanted, runaway successes to me.I just wish that would nothave seen ‘Pokiri’, the original version, which was a Telugu flick and ablockbuster. (Because I can’t help myself but get my mind to the comparative analysisB/N both versions) well I m not yet sure if Wanted turns out to be a real moneyspinner, but I don’t doubt if it does. The well timed release and nocompetition will only boost its BO collection. But the biggest reason for thesame is Salman Khan, Who is a sheer joy to watch in an out and out action movie.He seems to enjoy his role in the movie as their no much scope for quality actingwhere he scores pretty less. It’s all about shtyle baazi, catchy one-liners anddishum dishum, and bang-bang. Storylineis very much clear by now so i m not into that area. Salman has some class andthere is no denial about that, and that becomes more eminent when he staysnatural. Debutant director Prabhudevahas made sure to keep the movie away from melodramatic sequences though therewas certain scope for it too. But that was good for the fate of the movie. Itsa total entertainer and i really don’t think that only single screen theatersare going to attract the audience for Wanted. I believe that its going to do thewonders in multiplexes too. The basic concept of the movie here is to providethe core value to the audience which is absolute entertainment. there are somany whistling and clapping moments in the movie. There has been a myth forquite some time that you have to choose ur audience B/W single theaters andmultiplexes, But movies like this proves that a good entertainer sails in all oceans.Performancewiselike I said earlier it boasts completely on salmans’ shoulder and he never letsyou down. He has got some funny moments too in movie, the elevator scene iskinda funny and the platform scene where Takia tries to grab his attentionand he is all busy in munching snacks. The pair looks cute and though there isno hardcore romance but warmth of theirrelationship is quite visible. Ayesha has got nothing much to act but lookgorgeous and she does it with all ease. Looking a bit on a fatty side but that’sokay with a face like she has. Mahesh Manjrekar is good as a wicked cop, butthumbs up to the main villain gani bhai (Prakash Raj), He was there in theoriginal too. But i must admit that he has perfected his villainous art inWanted. After a long time one can talk about a villains act in a bollywoodflick. He has delivered a substantial groove to his character. He manages quitewell the mannerism of a Dan, and his Hindi accent is quite impressive. I guess he can bag somemeatier role from here. Manoj Pahwa (Landlord) has his times in the movie buthe irritates .Vinod Khanna has been wasted, but he had to deliver the powerpacked dialogues before Gani bhai kills him, may be that’s the reason he wasgiven this role, However he was just okay. Govind Namdeo(Commissioner) hasoveracted. Thumbs Up to: Action director (Vijayan),the movie belongs to him, rather then Prabhudeva  Salman khan for hisManly act. He really delivers when it comes to show the raw aggression andpower. Ayesha, she lookspretty. Quick-witted dialoguesand comic scenes (To an extent). Prakash Raj, for hisevil act and dialogue delivery, especially in the scene with seasoned actorVinod Khanna where he takes an edge over him. Boney Kapoor forfinancing this project. Thumbs Down to: The rest of the goons,they fail to look and act deadly. The mean girl MehakChahal, She looks like a cheap flesh. Songs, They arepathetic, there is one okayish soft number(Jaan jaan), Other then that all arenot even hummable. Salman’s costumes insongs and his bandana and sunglasses(Hate that).He looks cool in short hair, noneed to cover ‘em up. The tapori log ofSalman's Gang, They simply lack the attitude to be with a deadly assassin (Salman) My Rating 3.5/5 |

How to praise this Deol., He is too good.I ve seen all of his movies so far,and this one is the best so far.He has acted brilliantly.Though very unconventional but he has prooved himself as a true actor which is so rare to be seen in bollywood.He is not into flashy things like a toned body or designer cloths but he is here to stay and to make a mark and deliever a meaningfull cinema.This movie itself a millestone,in every aspect.Be it a depiction of its characters., Narration,and teh music and background scores.It suits the bill in all categories.Music is completely outstanding.,from imotional Atyachaar to Pardesi. The fusion of classial wid rock and Desi Band baaja wid jazz is totally outstanding.Hats off to first time music director Amit trivedi for his out of the box performance. The story of the movie is the same as it was supposed to be as it is in banglaws etc., Rigfht now i m feeling so sleepy and its hard for me to keep my eyes open So good night friends.I ll Add up more bout the film later on,Bye |

Rock on....Hai ye waqt ka ishara., rock on...Har lamha pukaraa...You ll bee crooning those lines while while you'd be returning way back to home after watching Rock on. Great flick people..Go for it, if u ve not seen it yet. Saw it yesterday., still livin in the persistent hangover of it,and this one likely to stay.This movie takes you on a ride of frienship.,emotions ,Love,Differences,ambitions., a zeal to fulfill one's dreams.and most importantly to tell u "Jaise jee chahe jeene ko dil jee waise tu,Apne dil ke jo armaan hain unko karle poora tu..." Its a story of four friends who breath music and they want to make it big.but dreams crashes after few reality punches(Not in depth) and they their individual life takes them to their separate ways., reunion gets them back on track with a vangeance to proove their salt.and this time they rock big time., Well its just the outline of the story.,pretty normal and predictable but wat makes it simply outstanding is the performances,screenplay and the most amazing music of year so far.The characterization of the movie is so real that after a few reels u u start to see them as they are shown in the movie literally.The lead vocalist(Farhaan),Drummer(Purab),Keyboardplayer(Kenny)and last but not the least the Lead Guitarist(Arjun Rampal).They all ve given the performance with so much intensity like they are living their own lives on celluloid.The songs are fab., Specially Tum ho to..At the climax will completely moves u.,I sarted to get the vibes even before KD hits the drums.,and Aditya starts to croon., amazing vocal abilty., I must admit wat kind of sheer talent this guy has got.simply prodigious,Whatever he does he turns that into gold.Arjun Rampal has got a role of a lifetime and he did well.Purab is a funny mam,i knew but he is a very intense actor., Kenny is good.Prachi comes as surprise packet with simplicity and so relaxed acting. There are too many of scenes in the movie that u ll remember for long.,I think its a cult of its own specially in bollywood.,which has really come out of ages. This movie is directed by Actor Jeetendra's nephew (Abhishek kapoor),i believe., Correct me if i'm mistaken. At the end i would like to humm it yet again. Rock on Rocks.
kaise, bhoolun, saatvan jo din aaya kisi ne, tumse, ik party mein milwaaya kaisa, pal tha, jis pal maine tumko pehli baar dekha tha hum jo mile pehli baar maine jaanaa kya hai pyaar maine hosh bhi khoya dil bhi khoya kabhi khud pe hansa main, aur kabhi khud pe roya maine pichhle saat dino mein ye sab hai, khoya.. Na na na na na na ana na naa

Boy., it was going good till the intermission then it becomes very predictable and slow too and finally recovers before the climax. In fact 5 years back a movie named Tujhe Meri kasam starred Reitesh deshmukh and Genelia(SAme actress) Released with the same storyline,the difference is., that movie concludes at railway station and this ends at an airport with the same happy ending.Moreover Anuradha patel is her mom again in this one too, some coincidence here...or just ease of playing the same character again.? Neways somehow i liked the movie as it's been so long for a movie with college kids and that too are really cute,the music has a fresh feel(And i like this kind og movies generally ). Well story is simple., the boy and the girl are friends for five years and they dont even think beyond each other,They are sooo close to each other .,no hidden secrets b/w'em.And everybody wants 'em to be together.But excuse me they dont love each other and plz.. forget about marriage.Then wat the hell was that,well thats the friendship.any probs.. Moreover girl find a ladylove for boy and when the boy is getting closer to that new girl She realises that something is missin from her life.No probs she satrts dating with a New boy but ultimately they realized(Forced to realize) that they are made for each other.HE he ., how does it sound like u ve seen it for at least ten times.O boy thats it. Imraan is cute., baccha hai yaar., pyaara hoga hi.Genelia is adorable and since she is doing the same character 3rd time(Original Telugu,Then tujhe meri kasam., and now this one,She has perfected.Naseer cameo is good., The other supporting cast is reasonably good.But I like Jignesh The Patel The most. :) Music is a good., as most of the songs i heard for the first time in the movie itself i dont remember those but there is on slow melody which was really cool. Chalo bahut hua...Go home humming.... ...kabhi-2 Aditi Koi 3 ghante mein 300 rs foonkta hai.Kabhi-2 wo samose bhi mahenge khaata hai, par kaise koi counter se jake paise mange ., aur kaise koi soch le ke movie is gonna be hit .,OK. |

Just got out of the theatre and on chakpak right away so i can share with u 2 and half hour of cinamatic magic i ve just eperienced.I was keen to watch but i ve nt read any of the review on TZP as of now in order to not get biased. Alright let me talk about the movie now.Well First of all standing ovation to Amir Khan for his courage and his brilliant direction to make a dream debut., to make a movie so brilliant and enough to prove why this Khan is so special from others.Apart from actimg He has shown a tremendous potential as a director too. Movie evolves around a kid ,Ishaan(Inu)who lives in his own world of imagination and not good at all at studies and usual stuff which is expected.Obviously his parents(Specially father)are not very pleased with hs performances and try to find a solution by sending him to Boarding school during mid term.At Boarding Inu faces a traumatic life like hell since nobody is here to understand his world and nobody helps him to overcome his troubles. He is on the verge of losing his innocense and happiness to such a greater extent that that he even stops paiting which was his only passion and a way to find solace. Art Teacher Amir Khan (Ram) Comes to his rescue and helps him to regain his confidence and self esteem.and takes to the world to tell 'em wat a gifted boy he is.. Well the storyline is simple and predictable though.but wat makes it beyond extra-ordinary is the subject which is very sensitive and the performances ., specially the kid Ishaan. The movie's tagline suggests that everychild is special and this kid is really very special He has given his 200 percent to portray a character which wa very difficult for any actor and he is just 9 years old.He has acted in a way that he will be remembered in time to come. In TZP,there are moments where you'd laugh with ur lungs out or simply smile and then there are moments when you ' shed a tear or two(Specially in the song- Kya itna bura hoon main Maa And Inu runs into Amir's Arm after being called up for the award) TZP connectes u instantly whether u r a kid or a parent one finds bonded very well with the movie.I ve seen TZP at a theatre in Kota City where the locals are notorious to rape the movie if its not a worth or even if it is.But whoa there was a pin drop silence in a packed hall and people were only responding to Inu's magic.That was amazing feeling. Needless to say Amir has acted superbly.I won't sat Its a children movie,I'd rather suggest everybody should go and watch TZP(Specially parents :)) Want to write more but feeling very hungry so catch u later. |

I loved it., may be i sound childish., but i admit it that i 'd love the movie.I was dubious after the movie that whether it should be a telifilm instead of a typical bollywood movie.But i think bollywood is changin., the way Bhansali's has captured the vibrancy of colours(the larger than life sets) and the portarayal of characters is very classy and artistic.Its like a poem.,a beatiful one.Its like a fairytale., sets of small castles or else i should say wat u can relate to city like Vanice. its a story of a Vivacious guy(Ranbir-RAJ) who feels sad in somebody's pain and tries to cheer 'em up.He works as a singer in a local club. One fine night after his show he saw a girl(sonam-SAKEENA) who ,he finds in some king of angst., and he tries to cheer her as well., and in their first meeting he falls in love.,But the Girls does'nt as she loves somebody else(Salman) and waiting eagerly for him to come back.Now after this night they become very good friends and girl seeks his help to get her messages delievered to her love ., But the guy who himself loves her does'nt do it at the first place then realises that he should've helped her .He tries to find that guy and comes to a conclusion that that guy does nt even exists and she loves him instead of that guy only to find at the end that she is not his destiny but somebody else's.well the sory is simple ., its only the narration and the direction that makes it apart from the crowd.The extravagant sets,beautiful costumes which are devoid of teary and melodramatic situations(For a change).The movie is not about the facts and twists and turns and hows and whys., but takes u to a different cinamatic approach which i think should be appreciated. About ranbir.., he is cute and has shown a tremendous quality to be a very promising actor.needless to say he has acted superbly.Sonam was looking bit awkward to me in the beginning but was looking beautiful after few frames(Or may be readjusted my view :)., But boy she was too tall for ranbir., actually it was apparently visible that ranbir was wearing high heel shoes while she was in flat sandals. :) Rani mukherjee was irritating sometimes(Especially in a song),Otherwise few of her dialogues were very good.She has mastered in roles like this (She played a Prostitute..,, Again:)) Salman has just two scenes so nothing too talk about that. Another best part of the movie was music(Again apart from one Rani mukherjee song which was irritating). Go for the movie if u want to experience a different approach to subtle lovestory., its different. |

No smoking.,Smoking Kills . i know,last night i watched the movie ., The moment i came out of the theatre i was euphoric.,or may be exhaust or may be confused., yeah thats right as i was trying to infer the climax/and the whole movie to some extent.but i had a couple of beer before the movie that helped. :) Well the storyline does not describe the the real soul of the movie., its the treatment which is way ahead and different from regular bollywood stuff.but i m confused whether i liked that movie or not, now u see even after 10 hours i m not not able to figure out few things in the movie specially the endind.how the hell John lost his fingers.neways i never felt bored in the movie either., John has acted well along with paresh rawal and ranvir shorrey. Ayesha'Gadda'Takia was reminding me of someone from HENTAI series and was looking hotter than the hottest in her secretary avatar.over all movie can be seen as many times as u can to infer out something and i think every time u ll notice something extra(And plz let me know if u find something regarding the climax) |

I was really keen to watch this movie as I rate Abhay deol as a very promising actor who is always upto experiments and to deliver. And this movie was an addedd sugar to taste of my belief that this guy is really intended to make a mark of his own. The narration is slow in the beginning but as the movie progresses it unfolds a series of underlying truths. The protagonist Satyaveer Singh Randhawa aka SV is a Govt employee who is just scrutinized and suspended while caught red handed for accepting some kind of bribe.He is also a writer with immense desire to proove himself.But his first Novel 'Manorama' sinks without a fizz.and he is obviously frustrated. Sarika(Manorama)comes to seek his help as she has read her novel and appointed him to give her some tip about his husband's affair.,And wat SV discovers later on is nothing a sort of serendipity and he soon find himself in an inextricable situation. Well I dont want to spoil the fun .So not gonna reveal the sequnces, But wat proceeds next is a real thrill and almost unpredictable as Dinrat mentioned "in the desert, nothing is what it seems" U gotta see it to belive it. Performances wise Abhay deol prooves that he is not a Juvenile actor anymore. He completely got into the skin of the character.His Saala(Bro-in-law)Vinay paathak is simply amazing,u'd just adore him. Sarika feels good in a short role.Gul panag has nothing much to do. Raima sen is looking ravishing yet simple.Veteran Kulbhushan kharbanda is impressive in a lewd politiacian's character.The desert of rajasthan is picturised beautifully in the movie as it is in real life,(But thankfully No lavish songs with hundreds of junior artiste and a hero in leather jackets wooing for her ladylove). At the end i'd say this is one thriller i ve not seen in bollywood for ages. Go For it. Feel the Heat. |

I wish i could give it o rating. * This is the most disgusting movie i ve seen in my whole life.,Even Mela(I tolerated Mela till Intermission) was a better movie than this crap.I Could not stay in the theatre more than 45 minutes. * I dont understand a director like RGV who has delievered movies like Satya,Company can do this.,First of all he should not have tried to imitate the movie named Sholay which is a grand movie in every sense.,But he touched it,disected it,raped it,. * A total crap from Amitabh to Ajay devgan,Nisha kothari to sushmita sen. *A sheer failure of Amitabh., His careers' biggest mistake,How the hell he got agreed to do such kind of pathetic role and moreover delievered complete nonsense.(May be RGV posses some secret videotapes of amitabh and Zia,ad he must have blackmailed him to do biggest piece of shit of his life) * Wat to say about Mohanlal,a poor chap who replaced thakur,was so irritating i wish i could've blasted him right there(Unfortunately he was on the screen) *It was painstaking to watch the movie,and we were out of the theatre in 45 minutes. *Please Dont even think to watch this movie,u ll regret like i do. |

Apne proved to be far more what i 'd imagined.The Movie is about shattered dreams of a father who never gives up Played by Dharam paji with such excellence that have yield him his one of the best performances of lifetime.Apne revolves around his shattered dreams of becoming of india's first heavyweight champion,but he was banned for fifteen years for the false doping charges,the hurted and humiliated boxer(Dharam paji) took this as a challenge and determined to produce a new world champion in form of his own son Sunny. But after four years practice in vain ,Sunny decides to quit boxing for the good of his family,But Dad dharam does nt forgive him as his long cherished dream shatters again.Dharam paji live the hope again as he finds a new student(Aryan Vaidya) who is keen to learn boxing,Now Dharam who is living with his broken heart charged himself and trained him.But one more time destiny cheats him as moves to Mumbai for an australian coatch and leaves Dharam in solitude,These happens and Bobby,the younger son who is a singer and disabled with his left arm, finds his arm actually recovering.Bobby decides to put himself in dad's long cherished dreams (needless to say Dad is all set to train him)and gets going with few qualifying games with such an attitude that he impose himself to fight against the worlds champ Luca Gracia 'The Killing Machine'. It happens again,Luca plays dirty in the final and Bobby sought life threatning injurydue to a cheat move by Luca.Bro Sunny despite of his father angst to him turns up to U.S. to meet his brother,and on an events gets challenge from Luca to fight with him to prove heimself,Sunny takes the challange against his father's wish,and trains himself and saves his father grace by serving him with the world champ tital. No,not for a moment but these action packed events does not take the emotional moments away as its just the part of the emotional sequences thats the heart of the story. at the end Dharam Paji decides to end his life as his younger son who was batteling with death due to an liver injury,as doctors refuses to perform operation on dad Dharam due to age factor,and dad finds himself responsible for the accident and wants to save his sons life,Fortunately Doctors finds a donor and the saga ends on happy note. Performancewise i ve mentiones earlier also that movie belongs to Dad Dharam Paji who played the complex character of a father,a husband a disgraced player by destiny and a man of Honour with perfection(new competetion for Big B).The Emotional bond B/w the treo Deols is very well created by the director Anil Sharma.Full credit to him as i've never imagine from the director of 'Tehlka' brand director Other actors were given the grace of acting when its needed.Sunny's acted well as neglected son and as hurted brother and son who decides to hit the bulls eye. Bobby as a younger son has done justice to his role.Mom Kiron Kherr is amazing as always. Gurls had nothing much to do but they have made their presence felt. Victor bainerjee as Dharams friend make u feel that one should have such person for life to support in hard times. Over all the movie revolves u with and at times u feel ur eyes moist with the emotions . A Must Watch for every moviegoer. |

ohmegosh,movie is fundoo.Dont go by the reviews by rediff or indiafm,u gotta see the movie to rate it.the Plot is just amazing,the treatment is just wonderful,The screenplay is great,the dialogues are catchy.u wont feel bored for even a single second, *Performance wise its good to see Abhay Deol,as its very natural.he does not effort to act hard but still looks so obvious,his comic timing is just perfect. *Even Neha Dhupia looks gorgeous, well defined and very sexy. *All the villain gang looks good. *Dialogues are spontaneous and makes u laugh big time. *Movie does not have full time song,However there are few lines in background. *Movie maintains a decent pace,and does nt let u down at any point of time. *Too many of funny sequences keep u engage at your seat. *Wat else folks,go and watch the movie if u really want to have a great time and get ur gang along to enjoy it even more. |
