Review Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania



Humpty Sharma ki dulhania is 'wohi puraani ghisi piti love story in a new avatar'. So for folks who like to see meaningful cinema, this is definitely a huge waste of money. But for those who are romantic at heart, believe cinema is as much entertainment and meaningful content, and love bollywood, this is a blockbuster.

Its true that its the easiest movie for Dharma Production to make from a content standpoint but whats difficult is to present similar content over and over again with so much freshness so that in those 2.5hrs you actually do not criticise the 'old wine in a new bottle' but actually enjoy it thoroughly. I believe one must give full marks to Karan Johar and team for yet another romantic blockbuster.

I wont reveal the story much bcoz its got so little in any case but what you should look forward to is the amazing chemistry between Varun & Aaliya. The super entertaining first half. The other supporting cast who make the overall movie extremely entertaining and after a long long time you see Ashutosh Rana who still holds a powerful screen presence. The film however belongs to Varun & Aaliya who have definitely made their space in the industry as the most spontaneous actors of recent times and specially Aaliya who should be giving the new breed like Pariniti sleepless nights bcoz she is definitely emerging not just as a spontaneous actress but also very versatile and extremely beautiful on screen. These kids can no more be tagged as 'emerging stars'...they are stars already....

What i liked in the movie is the fact inspite of being so 'gheesa peeta' subject, it treats new age romance as extremely pragmatic rather than just emotional. The movie hardly gets into the old age 'rona dhona aur mushy mushy emotions'...its in that ways very fresh.....i guess that's what making romance a comeback in last one year or so with 2 states, heropanti and now Humpty making people enjoy romance on screen yet again....

Its definite this movie is a blockbuster....So wanna have a great weekend watch Humpty.....

Review of 'Icche' (bengali movie)

Image
Icche is possibly one of the most wonderful movies i have ever seen till date...More so for the wonderful wonderful performance by 'Sohini Sengupta'... The whole story revolves around the mother 'Mamta' and son 'Soumik' played by 'Sohini Sengputa' & 'Samadarshi Dutta'. The mother is a typical bengali mother who is over possessive and protectionist about her son and wants to fullfill all her dreams thru her son....She wants to fullfill all her dreams thru her son and in the process forgets that her son has a life and identity of his own...'Soumik' starts realising this uncomfortable reality when he falls in love witha Girl in Class XIIth and her mother comes to know of it.... The story on hand is simple but on the other hand it deals with various shades of character of 'Mamta' who loves her son like anything, sometimes she is her best buddy, sometimes she is biggest opponent and sometimes she is manipulating... The story ...

Some serious questions on the movie business???

Given the fact that all movies are now on TV within few weeks of release gives us a sense that producers are looking for multiple revenue streams big time...(in fact i have heard some of them plays a role in releasing the pirated CD's as well..when they know it will not do well....)....Looking at the quality of movies being made now a days , big time fall in footfalls in Multiplexes due to much faster spread of 'Word of mouth'unlike a couple of years back (thanks to social networking)...it gives me an indication that somewhere the business model of 'Movies' are not working smoothly, which is forcing producers to release it on TV much sooner than required so that they can at least cash in on the idiot box which at least gives them greater assurance of 'Eyeballs' (as typically people do give all those movie a watch which they haven't seen in theatre's...bcoz for them its free of cost..)...While its good for the producers that they have TV to save them ...

Sardar Udham - Amazon Prime

Image
 I was awaiting Sardar Udham with a lot of eagerness because of two reasons. # 1 - It was Shoojit's latest creation and we all know how good a film maker he is. # 2 - It had Vicky Kaushal who is one of the best actors in Bollywood today. The 2hr 42 min film was made with great intent to dive deep into the mind and motives of Sardar Udham Singh that led to the killing of Michael O' Dwyer 20 years after he had given the orders for Jaliwalan Bagh Executions. The highest point of the film was the last 40 minutes which showcases the Jaliwalan Bagh killings and the diplomatic defense of the incident by the army and bureaucrats of the British. It does shake you, emotionally stirs you and does make you feel angry that till date there is no official apology of the same by the United Kingdom. The film depicts some interesting characterization of Bhagat Singh and his philosophy. The role well depicted by Amol Parashar.  What I found very interesting is the way the narrative handled the d...
