Sholay (1975)
10 out of 10 - THE BEST HINDI FILM EVER MADE
Is kahani me romance hai, drama hai, tragedy hai. It's arguably the best hindi film ever made and probably the most ENTERTAINING FILM EVER MADE. I still get glued to the TV screen when I see this playing on any tv channel.
The main plot is so strong, full of a strong storyline, which gets revealed slowly but at the right moments in the movie and seamlessly integrate with the present to tell u the full picture. The storytelling is marvellous. The acting is brilliant. The emotional bond of 2 friends is the best part of the movie. And yes, the antagonist, the VILLIAN of the movie - GABBAR SINGH - he steals the show for me as the best actor of this movie. Not to forget Sanjeev Kumar, a guy who plays twice his age effortlessly. The sub plots are also amazing and provide some comic moments in an otherwise fast moving and tightly knit main plot. Watch it to see how FANTASTIC Indian Hindi Cinema is.
Shakuntala Devi (2020)
Love it. A genius plays the role of a genius.
Today I watched the movie as it premiered on Amazon Prime Video. And this movie has been a great refreshment in the days of the lockdown since the deadly coronavirus took over the world.
I loved the movie immensely and loved the characterisation and performance by both Vidya Balan and Sanya Malhotra.
Of course Vidya is a class in herself but Sanya really surprised me with her acting. She deserves a filmfare for the best supporting actor, at least by far the best I have seen this year.
A full Paisa wasool movie that you can, no you MUST watch with family
Woh Kaun Thi? (1964)
Great suspense
The movie has a great suspense which is only revealed at the end It cannot be guessed easily if you haven't seen similar movies. It also has an element of horror setting. Sadhna's acting is brilliant. Manoj Kumar looks handsome. Watch it for the mystery that the movie carries all throughout. There are a few moments of slow pace but overall a great thriller.
Dhund (1973)
Amazing Suspense
This movie has great performances by Zeenat Aman, Danny and Sanjay Khan. The movie doesn't look like a suspense thriller but wait till the end when you know it is a suspense. Watch this movie to see how being at the wrong place at the wrong time can be a blessing in disguise and trouble, both at the same time.
Kanoon (1960)
The Murder that becomes a mystery at the end of the movie
This is an excellent movie. No songs, so movie is fast faced.
A murder is committed. A lawyer has seen the murderer. Another person is held responsible for the murder. The lawyer must fight for justice to protect this other person but he cannot implicate the real murderer because relationships are at stake.
Eventually he has to reveal the real murderer. But is the person the lawyer saw the real murderer?
Watch till the end to know the truth.
Mera Saaya (1966)
Gripping suspense right till the end and splendid performances by the leads, specially Sadhna
Welcome to the perhaps only exceptional suspense romantic movie that you would love to watch again and again even though you learn of the suspense after watching it for the first time.
Its easier to prove who is who when there are 2 similar people as someone reveals the distinct feature/attributes of the 2 people but what happens when only you (the person who is claiming to be the one she is) knows of that distinct feature/property.
A woman dies in the arms of her husband and her death rituals are performed by the husband himself. How then can another similar looking woman claim and more importantly prove that she is his wife and not the woman that died in his arms?
A fantastic courtroom drama follows where the other woman seems to be winning but her husband has one final proof that she is not his wife. The verdict is announced and the woman is sentenced.
But wait she comes back to reveal the real secret.
Watch it till the end for a mind-boggling suspense.
