Ra.One (2011)
SRK still not able to come out from OSO syndrome... i want Aamir khan to do Ra.two
When i went for this movie i dint go with much expectations as i know who is the director of this movie but as SRK invested so much time in re-editing & its his dream project (promotion & expensive movie type of things would not take to theaters).. So i thought the final product should be at least watchable but the movie is total crap. The first 5 mins include Shahrukh, sanjay and priyanka gave me the impression of the whole movie that it is going to be another OSO\TMK and i was quite correct. well there is no overacting in the movie like OSO but comeon Shahrukh you are making a movie,it's not a child's play... do you really think a Sensible person gonna like these type of jokes.Pls stop doing Farha khan kinda jokes & do watch some Aamir khan movies The movie has only 2 good things :: Arjun Rampal :: Did a decent job and looks like a Hollywood actor(though he doesn't have much to do). Chammak challo song -> Akon. even very unlikely but to some extent kareena kapoor doesn't disappointed me much,she was O.K. in the movie and looks good.
Negative points:: SRK south Indian character -> Not good. Child -> Very awful,what kinda hairs he has, i don't know who recommend this kid to SRK. Family drama -> when they came back to India i don't know what the hell they wanna do,just a family drama. Bad jokes -> Not a single joke in the movie was able to made me laugh,i don't understand why SRK comes again and again with those irritating dialogues. Just watch OSO & TMK, i mean same stuff. When serious\Fighting scene is going on, it really hurts when someone inserted a cheap joke unnecessarily. Finally, i would ignore all the above things if i found special effect to be good, but forget about any Hollywood movie even Robot is much better than this one.Ironman,spider man,Avatar etc.. even these movies din't have a very good story but they managed to have some sense and avoided cheap jokes and that's the main prob with Ra.one. See i am not against SRK and i appreciate his contribution in cinema (Kabhi haan kabhi na comes under my Top 5 movies list)but when actors like these made such non-sense movies,we should raise our voice. Just watch Mr.India made in 1987,movie was super hit because it has a script,direction & dialogues not because of Special effects. I hope Aamir will make Ra.two one day and show SRK what is called a real movie making.
Chhoti Si Baat (1976)
you fall in love with this movie... An excellent movie !!
The year was 1975 and Bollywood was enjoying with a lot of masterpices like Deewar,Chupke Chupke,Mili,Sholay,Juli,Aandhi. In the midst of all them a film was released which might not get that much attention but which is equally deserving called "Choti si baat".
I remember watching that movie for the first time on TV when I was in my 10th standard but i din't able to see the complete movie So, recently (after 10 years) i downloaded and watched it again and came with the Conclusion -> "Choti si baat" is perhaps the best Comedy movie of that(70's) decade and What makes it Class apart is it's simplycity. It masterfully tells one of the most important stories of the 70's which is about middle class.
I normally do not write about movies and I do not think movie like this should be critiqued.it should just be appreciated. Choti si baat is the most impressive movie by the director "Basu Chatterjee" his other movies like "Rajnigandha" "Manzil" and "Ek ruka hua Faisla" that also shows his directional sensitivity. But this is a movie which speaks more than it scripts. It tells us more than its characters narrates the story.
Choti si baat is set to give the audience an intimate look at the very soul of Arun's Character.Ashok kumar is fantastic as Col. Julius Nagendranath, You cannot think of any other actor in this role.Asrani is also very impressive and according to me this is his finest performance. Vidya Sinha was better in Rajnigandha but it does not mean she is not Good in this, She Performed the character of Prabha very well.But it's actually Amol palekar who set aside everyone in the acting department,he played the role of Arun exceptionally.
"Choti si baat" tells us how a man decided not to live like a Coward. The music of the movie is its another strongest part. I don't remember how many times I have watched this movie since then but each time is an experience in itself.Choti si baat belongs to the genre of movies which gives you more than what you expect in the 120 minutes.
Gol Maal (1979)
What an outstanding movie !!
A must Recommend movie for all generation of people. The situations of the movie are so comic that it does not matter who is actor,one has to enjoy the movie.Truly Great. A must watch movie. I would suggest every body to go and watch this movie. Every character was so amazingly suits the different characters. I see it as a lifetime achievement for all those who were a part of it,not intending to undermine their other accomplishments.The photography,art direction and production of the movie sets it apart from other movies of its era and at the same time puts it right up there on a different level.undoubtedly, one of the finest examples of film-making.This film is an absolutely original, Indian story, and does not owe anything to the west.Every aspect of the film is top-notch.10/10.
