Kambakkht Ishq (2009)
After a long tedious week, what one desperately needs is mindless entertainment. And this is precisely what Kambakkht Ishq promises and delivers: Bollywood masala coated in glam, tossed with idiotic humour, garnished with scantily clad women, spiced with a brigade of Hollywood superstars, and of course that special condiment a super sexy Kareena Kapoor igniting ...
Aa Dekhen Zara (2009)
Money is power. Power is seduction. It can seduce anyone, even the simplest of men. Can one cheat death? Can fate be fought? These are the questions that Aa Dekhen Zara poses as a film. But make no mistake. This isn’t a moralistic film. It is pure suspense with a dose of fantasy but the ...
Dev D (2009)
Anurag Kashyap (Black Friday, No Smoking fame) is not the first filmmaker to make a movie on Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay’s famous novel Devdas. But he is certainly the only one who has literally turned the book on its head. The basic storyline is driven from original Devdas but the characters are shaped quite differently. Imagine ...
Videsh (2009)
Premiering to much critical acclaim at last year’s Toronto International Film Festival, Videsh/Heaven on Earth has been directed by Deepa Mehta, the woman at the helm of the acclaimed Fire-Earth-Water trilogy of films. It also made Bollywood headlines when Preity won an award at the Festival, and the ensuing tangles with the Indian Censor Board ...
8×10 Tasveer (2009)
Strictly (technically) speaking, 8×10 Tasveer is a milestone for Nagesh Kukunoor. As a storyteller, Kukunoor has tried changing his genre, stepping out of his comfort zone and right into the suspense-thriller genre. For a filmmaker, that stepping out can go either way. Where one was hoping for an intelligent film, one gets a technically brilliant ...
Billu Barber (2009)
Billu Barber easily proves what you already know: Shah Rukh Khan has tremendous star appeal but when it comes to acting, he can easily be upstaged, in this case by the better Khan – Irrfan Khan. Billu is a story set in the picturesque village of Budbuda, where Billu the hajam (Irrfan Khan) struggles to ...
Dhoondte Reh Jaoge (2009)
Just when we begin to praise Bollywood for making alternative films, it throws a film like Dhoondte Reh Jaoge in our path making one feel either nervous for having cast an ill omen on the industry, or worse, feeling like a dimwit to have spoken too soon. For all the Farhan Akhtars and Anurag Basus, ...
New York (2009)
New York, directed by Kabir Khan of Kabul Express fame, has all the makings of a successful film if one just disregards the miniscule fact that the plot is at least five years stale. An endearing story of three friends whose lives meet a tragic fate, New York has it all: romance, humor, drama, heart ...
Luck By Chance (2009)
Luck by Chance, which launches the career of Zoya Akhtar as a director, is one of the most decent films to release in a long time. 2008 has been a comedy of errors for Bollywood with one magnum opus disaster after another. The over-hyped Ghajini and star-studded Yuvvraaj being two prime examples. But if Luck ...
