Drishyam Hindi Review


Whenever Ajay Devgan is given a role where he has to show aggression with restrain (remember Gangajal), he gives his most memorable performance.

Drishyam is one such movie where one star who shines par above any one else is Ajay Devgan.

The movie starts in a very boring way in the first half and you actually feel a bit bored but as it starts in the 2nd half , u could feel the silence in the theatre as people watch every moment with a sense of curiosity what will happen now and also enjoying the tussle between three characters i.e. Tabu, Kamlesh Sawant & Ajay Devgan.

Apart from Ajay , Tabu as a cold blooded policewoman adds to the intensity in the film and the marathi actor 'Kamlesh Sawant' too manages to make his mark inspite of having two high calibre actors.



The movie deals with an individuals way of dealing with a situation which involves his family and his definition of what is wrong and what is right. However the story is written with so much of twists and turns , that it becomes a beautiful watch. It primarily revolves around the tussle between three characters Ajay Devgan, Tabu & Kamlesh Sawant. The high points of the movie is Ajays continues Restraint in the movie and some scenes where Tabu brings alive her angst while knowing what she is doing is not right....Its difficult to think without Tabu & Ajay whether this movie would have been as watchful as its today.....Therefore the real credit goes to Nishikant Kamat for getting the cast that is Bang On.....Nishikant Kamat anyways excels in this kind of storytelling which has lots of layers, keeps the audience on its feet and deals with Human Emotions & Angst....

If there is one weak link in the movie that is Shreya Saran who just does not manage to fit in with ease in her role and constantly looks like a misfit....

Having seen Drishyam in Hindi i am itching to watch in Malyalam as i am sure Mohanlal would have taken the performance to a different level altogether....

If you have not seen Drishyam yet , then you are surely missing out on something....

Do not leave this movie from you watch list....

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...
