Firstly I like to congratulate Shekhar Kammula for making such a wonderful movie, and bringing out the sheer pleasure of rewinding back to your memories.

Coming to the movie, the colors were great . The screenplay, photography is awesome and the ideas good. Taking CBIT as the central theme is great , It is Shekhar's Giveback and he gave it back so good. The colege has life and the place has been shown so well by the director, that it is surely an Advertisement for the college.

"Dil Khush ho gaya, Month end ki closing ke baad aisi picture dekhne mein mazaa aata hain. Closing ke barey mein bhul jate ho" This is what i overheard from a couple of guys who had come to the movie. They had just been through the rigours of the month end closing for their sales job (presumably) and guess the closing dint go well. They came to watch this movie for the same purpose as any other movie goer, to forget their worries and feel good ...Lagey Raho made them feel great!!

Action: None

Movie Name: Bommairillu
Cast: Siddharth, Genelia, Prakash raj, Jayasudha ..
My Rating: 4.75

Yesterday after a great hunt for tickets (using one of my girl classmates) I got the tickets in Satyam . The tickets were sold at 150-200Rs in black (For the movie its worth spending that much). The movie started and frankly speaking this movie reminded me of TholiPrema.

Movie story is nice. Its about a overpossessive father and a loving son who cannot even speak against his father (because he loves him). He gets frustrated when his father makes decisions in every part of his life (From buying shirts to selecting his career and of-course his life partner).

• Cast: Aftaab Shivdasani, Chunkey Pandey, Zakhir Hussain, Snehal Dabhi, Isha Sharvani, Gulshan Grover, Kota Srinivas Rao and many more…
  Action: Has a few fight sequences but then the film promo call it and edge of the seat comedy so don’t expect too much on action front.
  Music: Now that I recollect, there are no songs in the movie
  Comedy: Out and out comedy film but quality of humor not that great
  Tragedy: Zilch

  J.D Chekravarthy (another name change...Formerly J.D Chakravarthy) of Satya fame comes up with a well woven plot and has picked up good actors for the different roles. The story and incidents about how things keep going bad for a motley gang of four when they kidnap a millionaire builder Raheja’s daughter and choose a bankrupt gujju'stock broker's house is entertaining. The comical thread is very good and some of the jokes and dialogues are sure to have the audience in splits.
  The problem with the movie is that though the train of incidents, the jokes and the performances are pretty good nothing stands out as exceptional. Telugu audience would find Kota Srinivas Rao’s performance hilarious. On a different note, the door bell does stand out in the movie as it is heard in alternation with every dialogue throughout in the movie.
  The sequence in which the number of hostages held captive by the gang to avoid the kidnapping from coming to light is one of the attractions of the movie. Chakry does not go overboard with the comical element and there is nothing that would classify as slapstick but if compared with the recently released Golmaal then the movie does look a bit pale.
  What lets the movie down is the hype in the initial promos of it being an “Edge of the seat” comedy. There is good comedy in the film but not really an edge of the seat laugh riot.
  The good thing is that the movie is short so is light on your mental bandwidth and does serve the purpose of giving you a relived and fresh mind once you are done watching it.

Aditya Pratap

Cast: Sanjay Dutt, Arshad Warsi, Minisha Lamba, Anusha Dandekar
Action: Very Little action, a few gunshots and couple of punches
Music: Good foot tapping numbers with the usual Himesh Reshamiyya zing
Comedy: Bearable and decent amount of humor
Tragedy: None in the end, it has a few sad set of events though
Attractions: Anusha Dandekar’s skin show, Himesh Reshammiya's music and a Red Ferrari.

Anthony Kaun Hain? Doesn’t quite live up to the expectations associated with a Sanjay Dutt-Arshad Warsi starrer. For starters, he movie revolves completely around Champ (Champak Chowdhry), played by Arshad Warsi with Sanjay Dutt having a supporting role to play. The comical standards set by Arshad in his recent movies such as Golmaal and that set by the duo in Munnabhai are found missing in AKH?.
Raj Kaushal has made decent strides from his earlier attempts at film making. He also ensures that he makes the viewer aware of him being the director by casting wife Mandira Bedi in a totally pointless, out of context, 10 second-5 word dialogue cameo. Her appearance is utterly pointless that it leaves you thinking why on earth she comes and then the connection strikes!
The screenplay by Soumik Sen wherein he carefully merges the flashback and background story and connecting the same to the present events is pretty good. Although there is comical relief in the movie it is not really funny enough. Minisha (name changed from Minisha) Lamba plays the romantic lead opposite Warsi but there is only so much that the script offers and hence has a minor role.
The key point of the movie is Arshad Warsi around whose performance and character the whole story revolves. Arshad Warsi after this year’s successes can finally say that he has arrived and the transition he has made from his first role in ACL’s debut venture Tere Mere Sapne to being a well acclaimed commercial actor is commendable. However there seems to be a stereotypical element in his characters of late and he would do good if he were to look for the superb roles such as those is Seher and Waisa Bhi Hota Hain – II.
Overall the viewers can afford to stay away from the film and wait for it to be broadcast on one of the TV Channels. Ardent Sanjay Dutt fans may want to hit the theatres but then all they can do is look forward to September 1st when Lagey Raho Munnabhai releases.

Cast: Ajay Devgan, Arshad Warsi, Tusshar Kapoor, Sharman Joshi, Rimi Sen, Paresh Rawal
Action: Decent bit of fights although they are all laced with humor
Music: Decent
Comedy: Outstanding, a movie which promises laughs all the way through right on till the end.
Tragedy: NONE WHATSOEVER!! This is an out and out fun movie

Rohit Shetty’s remake of a Telugu movie is a clear cut winner. It is sure to have the viewers laughing out wild all through the movie. Golmaal is a fun filled hilarious movie. Arshad Warsi stands out with a superb performance. TussharKapoor'ss portrayal of a dumb person is also worth mentioning. The plot is about 4 misguided youth who indulge in some or the other nefarious activity to live their lives. They end up living in the house of an elderly blind couple pretending to be their grand son. The movie with its dialogues and hilarious antics kept the entire audience in splits.
The movie is a must watch especially after a tiring week as it helps you have a great hearty laugh and feel relieved.

Cast: Ajay Devgan, Saif, Viveik Oberoi, Konkana Sen, Kareena Kapoor, Naseerudin Shah, Bipasha
Action: Good amount of action and tends to be violent at times
Music: No jing bang dance numbers but very good background score complementing the plot
Comedy: Good humor and excellent delivery of sarcastic dialogues
Tragedy: People who have read Othello would know better. Let me put it this way, it is not exactly a happy ending.

Vishal Bharadwaj’s adaptation of Othello with a very powerful cast and strong script despite indianizing the plot is a must watch. The movie is set in Uttar Pradesh with elements of the rifle raj, student politics and caste based politics mixed very well to throw up a good engrossing but predictable storyline. The story is about the henchman of a strong politician and other powerful members of his gang involved in a struggle for power. The story is based on the age old concept of a disgruntled member of a gang spewing venom and bringing about a rift in the gang. The pawn used in this battle for power is Dolly (Kareena) who is Omkara’s (Ajay Devgan) fiancé.
Vishal Bharadwaj has got a lot of things right but most commendable would be the cast. Saif Ali Khans portrayal of Langda Tyagi is outstanding and his performance is certainly one that will be talked about a lot. Konkana Sen’s performance also deserves a lot of credit. Her portrayal of a bubbly housewife with a mature head is very good.
The essence of the movie and its plot lie more in the dialogues and the dialogue delivery as well. Every character in the movie is powerful not just because of a strong portrayal by the actor but mainly because of the dialogues. The music and rural U.P setting add to the charm. Naseeruddin Shah plays the strong politician and does not disappoint the viewers with his performance.
The movie is a must watch for Saif Ali Khan fans. Ajay Devgan takes a back set to the more critical and better enacted role of Langda Tyagi. Viviek Oberoi is just lucky that he figures in the movie. He has nothing much to do in the film except for driving around in an Enfield Bullet flashing a smile and looking macho.
The surprise package of movie for me was Kareena Kapoor. Kareena's performance in the movie is really good; for once Kareena actually has the look of a good actress and is great with the portrayal of emotions.

The movie has a rather generous dose of abusive language which have passed the censor board's scissors but that’s what makes the movie much more realistic and effective.
