The Way Back (2010)
A true survival story & celebration of the Human spirit !!
Inspired by the book - The Long Walk by slavomir rawicz, The Way Back is a true story of 3 men who walk 4000 miles, from Siberia crossing the Himalayas to reach India.
Truly a celebration of the human spirit. The movie is exceptionally real, with each of the actors doing full justice to the respective characters up to each blood cell. The scenes of angry Siberian snow storm, the beauty of the lake Baikal, the gruesome mosquitoes and horseflies of Mongolia, coldness of the Gobi desert, and the mightiness of the Himalayas are absolutely phenomenal. Hair raising are the scenes that show the extent to which these men go for survival while carrying a burden of guilt, good & bad memories, relationships, emotions and culture.
Some may find the movie stomach-churning, but then I guess survival is quite nauseating. Watch it !
Shamitabh (2015)
A tribute to AB's baritone
It is simply phenomenal to see a daily wager/bus conductor/rickshaw puller/bonded labour looking guy pull of Amitabh Bachchan's baritone. Yep ! that is the thing to check out in Samitabh !! Nothing in place yet everything in place, is what is Dhanush ! I am absolutely Dhanushstruck !! A tribute to 'the' voice of Amitabh Bachchan and all the valets of Bollywood....Samitabh clearly shows Balki's fanaticism with AB. Akshara Hassan is a very welcome change from the usual Bollywood glamour actresses. Watch it only if you are another Balki or me....;-)(Meanwhile I am trying to download a new ring tone on my phone....sha sha sha mi mi mi)
