DILWALE

DILWALE: is a 2015 Indian romantic musical action comedy film directed by Rohit Shetty starring Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol, Varun Dhawan, Kriti Sanon Johnny Lever ,Mukesh Tiwari ,Sanjay Mishra and Varun Sharma.

PLOT: Ex-don-now-car-re-modeller Raj (Shah Rukh Khan) aka Kali lives a peaceful life with his younger brother Veer (Varun Dhwan) on whom he dotes.Together, they run a garage where they modify and repair cars, giving them a makeover. His two friends, Anwar (Pankaj Tripathi) and Shakti (Mukesh Tiwari) are an intrinsic part of his life and are privy to his dubious past of 15 years ago, which he has buried and about which no one else knows.Veer meets and falls for Ishita (Kriti Sanon) and expectedly gets assistance from Raj in his pursuit.Things become a problematic when Ishika's sister, Meera (Kajol) arrives.Turns out Raj has a history with Ishita's sister Meera (Kajol).

The story moves to 15 years ago, to a distant Bulgaria. Raj here is known as Kali, a dreaded Indian gangster.Two warring dons, Malik (Kabir Bedi) and Randhir Bakshi (Vinod Khanna),father of Kali, share a khandani dushmani in Bulgaria over some gold biscuits.Like a fresh breath of air, enters Kajol (Meera). Meera is Kabir Bedi's daughter and she tries to trap Raj in her love. However, when the two realise their 'real' affecton for each other,they decides to marry.The two families decide to meet and what happens there doesn't stay there by the way. Their fight with each other gets so intense that one fine day the two dons—Vinod Khanna and Kabir Bedi kill each other.Meera thought that Kali is responsible for this & shoot him.The enmity and misundersting between Kajol and SRK after former's daddy gets killed makes them stay off each other for 15 long years

Now,Will Raj manage his differences with Meera?

PERFORMANCES: Kajol dazzles and it's difficult to take your eyes off her when she's on screen.She looks stunning & steals your heart with a performance that stays in your memory.SRK is at his charismatic best in the young avtaar and carries off the angry, middle-aged guy with aplomb.Varun Dhawan is good as he is a good actor.Kriti looks very gorgeous & has a strong screen presence and is natural.This film boasts of a commanding supporting cast, but the ones who sparkle include Sanjay Mishra [exceptional], Johny Lever [super], Mukesh Tiwari [first-rate] and Pankaj Tripathi [competent]. Boman Irani does exceedingly well. Vinod Khannna and Kabir Bedi, the two veterans, are just right.

MUSIC: composed by Pritam is a ten-on-ten and singer Arijit Singh has once again spilled magic with his voice. Gerua's picturisation will want you to jump to Iceland next very moment.Other songs "Janam Janam" , "Manma Emotion Jaage","Tukur Tukur" are also very very good.

Story is very much predictable.The cinematography and scenes of Bulgaria are breathtaking. Goa has been captured well. Yes, cars do play a big part here, as they do in most Shetty films.Rohit Shetty stresses on vintage stuff [love triumphs against all odds], but he along with screenplay writer Yunus Sajawal narrates it smartly, peppering and garnishing the proceedings with sub-plots that keep you completed captivated.

Overall,Dilwale is a completely masala entertainer & can be watched.

N.B: Personally,I feel after a long time SRK has delivered a better performance than his Om Shanti Om,Chennai Express & Happy New Year.

HAR HAR BYOMKESH

HAR HAR BYOMKESH: is a Bengali mystery thriller film directed by Arindam Sil starring Abir Chatterjee ,Ritwick Chakraborty, Sohini Sarkar, Nusrat Jahan, Adil Hussain ,Subrat Dutta, Harsh Chhaya,Deepankar De,Indradeep Dasgupta & Shadab Kamal.Its based on the story "Banhi Patanga".

PLOT: Byomkesh (Abir), who visits Benaras with wife Satyabati (Sohini) and Ajit (Ritwick) at the invitation of inspector Purandhar Pandey (Harsh). ends up investigating the murder of zamindar Dipnarayan Singh (Adil).

PERFORMANCES: Abir is excellent as Byomkesh.His charismatic performance adds a new level to the movie.Ritwik is also very very good.No doubt he is great actor,his comic timing is also awesome.Sohini looks very cute,sweet as Satyabati.She completely justifies her role with her simplicity.The trio have perfect on-screen chemistry that shines through in almost every shot, making it a pleasure to watch them.Nusrat, too, has done a good job as Shakuntala around whom the mystery revolves.Renowned music director Indraadip Dasgupta as the zamindar's debauched nephew raises a few laughs.Harsh Chhaya as Purandhar Pandey is good.

MUSIC: composed by Bickram Ghosh.his north Indian classical tunes go perfectly with the period and the setting.The background score, too, adds to the mystery.

Soumik Halder's cinematography is an attraction of the film.Through his lens,Benaras looks very beautiful.

Last but not the least, the Director Arindam Sil should get all credits.He did a commendable job.The craft has got better, the storytelling is smarter.

Overall,Har Har Byomkesh is a must watch film.

N.B: There is a surprise at the last scene which would pay tribute to a scene from Satyajit Ray's film on detective Feluda.

TAMASHA

TAMASHA: is a 2015 romantic drama film written and directed by Imtiaz Ali stars Ranbir Kapoor,Deepika Padukone,Vivek Mushran & Javed Sheikh.

PLOT: The film starts off with the onstage robotic 'introduction' of Ved Vardhan Sahni (Ranbir Kapoor). The story then gets into a flashback mode wherein the audiences are introduced to the childhood of Ved(Yash Sehgal), who gets mesmerized and enchanted by stories. The 'impact' of these stories told during his childhood is so huge that it starts hampering his 'corporate life'.Present day,It is only on a holiday trip in Corsica where he meets Tara (Deepika Padukone) and his love for fun and theatre comes back to the fore. Ved and Tara have an agreement that they won’t reveal real names or anything that can trace them back to their lives - leaving behind the fun, love and connection they find in each other.When Tara tracks Ved and meets him in Delhi, she finds a different man - a product manager who has been saving his job solely through his ‘well-mannered’ behaviour and the tendency to be a yes-man of his boss(Vivek Mushran). With a broken heart, she decides to leave Ved alone and move on.What will happen to Ved?Do Ved and Tara ever come together is what forms the rest of the story

PERFORMANCES: Both Ranbir and Deepika come across as mature performers in Tamasha. While Deepika re-asserts her acting capabilities despite the script rendering her the second fiddle, Ranbir - who has been facing criticism over his last few outings onscreen - surprises with his brilliant acting prowess.His chemistry with Deepika Padukone is extremely likeable, believable and relatable.Every time Deepika comes on screen, she simply lights it up with her magnetic presence. There is never a dull moment in the film when she is on screen.Vivek Mushran is also good.

MUSIC: composed by A.R.Rahman & songs are the main attraction of the film.All songs are excellent.

This is Imtiaz Ali’s most complex and intriguing journey till date.Almost all of us have been brought up with such robotic mannerisms that we tend to forget our real selves - much like the protagonist Ved. This could have been a much larger connect for the audienceThe film's cinematography (Ravi Varman) is commendable but could have been better, as the exotic locales of Corsica could have been shown.

The sad part is that with TAMASHA, Imtiaz Ali fails to live upto the expectations and falls flat with the film. The movie suffers from a plot that appears confusing and is convoluted for an avid cinegoer.The film's first 20 minutes that aims to setup the tempo and establish the character of Ranbir, might appear as boring & the film's second half seems to drag majorly. This hampers the film and acts as a spoilsport in the progress of the film.

Overall, Tamasha is totally disappointing film of 2015.

HATE STORY 3

HATE STORY 3: is an 2015 Hindi erotic thriller film directed by Vishal Pandya starring Karan Singh Grover, Sharman Joshi, Zarine Khan,Daisy Shah and Priyanshu Chatterjee.

PLOT: Aditya Diwan ( Sharman Joshi) is a successful businessman now married to Sia (Zareen Khan) who was once his late elder brother Vikram’s(Priyanshu) fiancé.Everything is fine until Sourav Singhania(Karan Singh Grover) makes an unchartered entry. Sourav asks Aditya to allow him to spend a night with Sia and in exchange ask for whatever he wants. Naturally, angered by such a proposal, Aditya refuses to co-operate.Hence, starts Sourav’s vicious game. He starts by targeting Aditya’s business and ties him up in legal issues. Frustration grips over Aditya as he cannot decipher Sourav’s motive in doing so.Aditya sends his loyal colleague Kaya (Daisy Shah) to spy over Sourav but things turn ugly when double-crossing gets involved.

What is Sourav’s motive in harming Aditya and Sia is what essentially the movie is about.

PERFORMANCES: Sharman has been miscast. He is unable to bring out the arrogant and flamboyant nature of his character courtesy his ‘boy next door’ looks.Karan is ok.Daisy Shah gets limited scope to showcase her acting.Similarly, Zarine Khan too fails to attract audiences. She looks very hot but delivers an absolutely wooden act. In fact, she wears the same bored expression throughout the film.

MUSIC: composed by Amaal Mallik, Meet Bros and Baman.90's popular song "Tumhe Apna Banane Ka" has been recreated which sounds good."Wajah Tum Ho","Tu Isaq Mera" are also good composition.

There are so many bathing scenes,kisses in the film.Director tries to make a suspense thriller & he was quite successful.Story line is good.Climax is good.

Overall,Hate Story 3 is one time watch film & its better than Hate Story 2

PREM RATAN DHAN PAYO

PREM RATAN DHAN PAYO: is a 2015 Indian Bollywood romantic drama film,written and directed by Sooraj Barjatya starring Salman Khan, Sonam Kapoor, Neil Nitin Mukesh, Armaan Kohli, Anupam Kher, Deepak Dobriyal, Swara Bhaskar.It is loosely based on The Prisoner of Zenda is an adventure novel by Anthony Hope, published in 1894 from which bengali movie "Jhinder Bandi" was made.

PLOT: In Pritampur, an estate in North India, Yuvraj Vijay Singh (Salman Khan) a prince of Pritampur, is soon to be crowned as king and is engaged to princess Maithili (Sonam Kapoor), but due to his stubborn nature Vijay faces many problems with Maithali as well as his brother and sisters. His step sisters Rajkumari Chandrika (Swara Bhaskar) and Rajkumari Radhika (Aashika Bhatia) lives in a separate house outside royal fort, while his step brother Yuvraj Ajay Singh (Neil Nitin Mukesh) wants to kill him and take the Crown with the help of his manager Chirag Singh (Armaan Kohli), who is misguiding Ajay at every step. They plan an attack on Yuvraj Vijay, which Vijay survives but gets badly injured just days before his coronation While the prince recuperates in a secret chamber within the royal fort, his lookalike Prem reaches Pritampur to meet her along with his friend Kanhaiya (Deepak Dobriyal). At the bus stop, The Security head of Pritampur Palace,Sanjay(Deepraj Rana) notices him by chance, and takes him to Diwan sahib (Anupam Kher) a small-time entertainer from a nearby town, is discreetly recruited to take his place so the formalities can go off without a hitch.Can Prem crack the code and infuse happiness all around? Does he succeed in keeping the fort’s age-old traditions alive? Can he find real culprit?

PERFROMANCES: Salman Khan is good in his double role,gives this weightless film an occasional push and a shove in the right direction, but Sonam drags it back with an unconvincing performance.Deepak Dobriyal is also good and contributes to the laugh-out-loud moments None of the other actors in the cast is allowed to be anything more than a glorified extra.

MUSIC: composed by Himesh Reshammiya.There r 10 songs in the film :( .Among them the song "Prem leela","prem ratan dhan payo","Jab tum chaho","Jalte diye" & ünse kehna hai" are good to listen.

It is a predictable, old fashioned,full of emotionally engaging,lenghty film.Usage of unnecessary songs drags the film a lot which makes u feel tired.The director repeats his 80's same formula like men versus women sporting contests, midnight kitchen rendezvous.

The cinematography helps gloss over a lot of flaws in the film. The shot where there's an attack on Vijay's life is captured exceptionally well. V Manikandan's camera deserves much praise for the same.

Overall,Prem Ratan Dhan Payo might not be that bad but recommended for home viewing only for Salman.

SHAANDAAR

SHAANDAAR: is an Indian romantic comedy film, directed by Vikas Bahl stars Alia Bhatt,Shahid Kapoor,Pankaj Kapur,Sushma Seth,Sanah Kapoor and Sanjay Kapoor.

PLOT: The princess is an orphaned child, Alia (Alia Bhatt), who has been adopted by a kind man, Bipin Arora (Pankaj Kapur). He lives in a palace with a beautiful, but bossy, rich queen (Niki Aneja) and an overweight and sweet daughter, Isha (Sanah Kapoor, Pankaj Kapoor’s daughter) whose marriage has been fixed with brother multi-millionaire Mr.Fundwani(Sanjay Kapoor) The adopted princess cannot sleep. The kind father gifts her a box of dreams and hopes she will meet a prince who will put her to sleep.As in all fairy tales, there is a witch. She is a wheelchair-bound powerful naani(Sushma Seth), who lives in a castle in some unknown country.Main story the film takes place during a wedding between two families, which is nothing more than a deal to save both the bankrupt families, each counting on the other's wealth.Jagjinder Joginder(Shahid) is the wedding organiser.Jagjinder & Alia met and fall for each other.incidentally,Jagjinder is also insomniac.Rest of the film is about marriage,alia-jagjinder love story,father-daughter relationship.

PERFORMANCES: Shahid,Alia,Pankaj Kapoor's acting are awesome.Shahid-Alia's chemistry is very good.Sanah Kapoor (who’s Pankaj Kapoor’s real-life daughter and Shahid’s half-sister) brings grace & will literally steal your heart away with her dimpled smile and natural banter in the movie.

MUSIC: composed by Amit Trivedi.The complete album is good specially "Gulaabo" ,"Sham shaandaar","Nazdeekiyaan".

Director Vikas Bahl wanted to make a fairy tale.He became partially successful but he added lots of useless,unnecessary scenes that ruined the charm of the film.Audience will loose interest.Script is poorly written. Length of the film could be 30mins less.Good use of animation can be seen.The film had the potential to be a good film

Overall,Shaandaar is an average film & can be watched once for acting of leading actors & music.

GUDDU KI GUN

GUDDU KI GUN: is a Bollywood Adult comedy film directed Duo Shantanu Ray Chhibber & Sheershak Anand stars Kunal Khemu,Aparna Sharma, Payel Sarkar ,Sumeet Vyas,Shaantilal Mukherjee,Biplab Chatterjee.

PLOT: Guddu (Kunal Khemu) is washing powder salesman in Kolkata. Originally from Bihar, Guddu is popular amongst the housewives of Kolkata with whom he is intimately involved.While Guddu is happy being the pleasure provider for these ladies, he cheats on one of the girls named Bhloi(Aparna Shama) who has fallen in love with him and is forced to pay a price for his act. Bholi's dadu(Biplab Chatterjee) curses him in an unexpected way which leads to Guddu’s genitals turning into gold.To get rid of it,Guddu has to find his true love & marries her.Atlast he finds his true love in an ugly looking girl Kaali(Payel Sarkar) whose marriage already been fixed.Kaali's father demands Rs.10lacs from Guddu to marry her daughter.Helping him in the process is a loyal friend Laddoo(Sumeet Vyas). The duo must dodge the greedy sexologist(Brijedra Kala),his sexy nurse(Flora Saini),her reporter boyfriend,a don(Jameel Khan) and an antique dealer named Antique Moshai(Shantilal) who are after the gold. Does he succeed?

PERFRORMANCES: Kunal Khemu is a complete entertainer in this film. We are reminded of his super funny act in Go Goa Gone and it is great to see him apply his comic timing once again. His Bihari accent is superb.Sumit Vyas may call himself a ‘side hero’ in the film but well, he comes across like the parallel lead. He nails Laddu’s character and will leave you in splits with his act.The supporting cast includes Payal Sarkar, Flora Saini, Brijedra Kala, Jameel Khan & Shaantilal Mukherjee all are good.

MUSIC: composed by Vikram Singh, Soumyajit Banerjee, Raju Sardar.No song is up to the mark & used unnecessarily.

Its a completely brainless adult comedy having very funny dialogues,some hilarious comic situations.

Overall, Guddu ki Gun is not a must-watch or showing any sort of cinematic brilliance but this film will make you laugh for sure.

JAZBAA

JAZBAA: is an Indian thriller-drama film directed by Sanjay Gupta starring Aishwarya Rai Bachchan,Irrfan Khan, Shabana Azmi, Atul Kulkarni and Chandan Roy Sanyal.It is a remake of the 2007 South Korean film Seven Days.

She has to fight the case of a rapist and murderer inside the courtroom to ensure her daughter is safe.Will Anuradha be able to save her daughter in time? Will she win this case ?This is the rest of the story,

PERFORMANCES:It’s Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s comeback film and it is definitely a delight to see her on-screen again. While she looks brilliant as a stern advocate.Irrfan Khan as always gives a terrific performance. He gets the punchlines and he makes gold of it. Shabana Azmi is the true hero of the film. She puts up a brilliant act as an emotional mother of a rape victim who has been murdered.Atul Kulkarni plays the government prosecutor. His role too is limited and hence does not make much impact.Chandan Roy Sanyal is an actor of great potential but is wasted in this film.

MUSIC: is composed by Amjad-Nadeem, Arko Pravo Mukherjee and Badshah."Bandeyaa" is very good composition by Amjad-Nadeem.

"Jazbaa's narrative has pace and power, run time of two hours, allowing you little time to think.The court-room scenes are brilliant.It could be said that the soul of the movie is the style of screenplay.

Overall,Jazbaa is compelling and an ensemble that lived up-to its expectation.This is very much watchable.

TALVAR

TALVAR: is a 2015 Bollywood drama film written by Vishal Bharadwaj and directed by Meghna Gulzar.The film is based on the 2008 Noida double murder case, in which a teenage girl and her family servant were found murdered, and her parents were convicted for the murders. The film stars Irrfan Khan, Konkona Sen Sharma, Neeraj Kabi and Sohum Shah.

PLOT: A 14 year old girl Shruti Tandon(Ayesha Parveen) is brutally murdered inside her bedroom in the house. Next day, the domestic help of the family, Khempal's body is found on the terrace of the house. The parents, Ramesh(Neeraj Kabi) and Nutan Tandon(Konkona Sensharma) don't get the luxury of mourning over her death as soon after, they are embroiled in a situation where the father is suspected of killing her.CDI officer Ashwani Kumar(Irrfan) and Inspector Vedant (Soham Shah) are investigating the case.Ashwani believes the parents to be innocent, and methodically builds a case against the father's resentful assistant.Just as Ashwin Kumar is about to conclude his investigation, his senior officer retires and a new CDI chief takes over. Inspector Vedant, in his greed to get a promotion, starts working against Kumar. This leads to an altercation between the two officers, resulting in Kumar's suspension.Then CDI hands over the case to a new probe team led by Kumar's former boss Paul (Atul Kumar), who concludes that the parents committed the murders.Now conflict between two investigating officers come into front.

Who is correct & who is wrong?Who killed Shruti & Khempal?Has justice been done to the Tandon family?Rest of the film is all about.

PERFORMANCES: Each & every actor did a brilliant job.They are so natural that this can't b treated as acting.They transform themselves into real life character.

MUSIC: composed by Vishal Bharadwaj.Several songs are employed to underpin the Talvar narrative, but the film has no room for any happy musicality.

Vishal Bhardwaj's tight screenplay, great casting and Meghna Gulzar's slick-yet-with-an-emotional-undercurrent handling of the material in hand, makes this an immensely watchable film.

Overall,Talvar is a must watch film

PERFORMANCES: Akshay is good but doing same type of comedy acting as he usually does.Amy Jackson is very impressive.Her looks,action sequences are good.Kay Kay Menon has nothing much to do.Lara Dutta as Emily english translator to Akshay is very good revealing a terrific flair for physical comedy that one had no idea she possessed.

MUSIC: composed by Sneha Khanwalkar, Manj Musik, Sajid-Wajid, Meet Bros."Tung Tung Baje" is very good."Singh And Kaur","Cinema Dekhe Mamma" ,"Mahi Aaja" are also good listen.Overall,this music album is having some foot tapping numbers.

It is enjoyable in parts but as a whole it is not up-to the mark having some funny moments and Lara Dutta brings a certain freshness to the film.

Overall,Singh is bliing is one time watch film as it delivers mindless humour, entertainment and some fairly good performances.

Johnny Lever's daughter Jamie Lever as Champa is worth mentioning.She is also talented like his father.

MUSIC: composed by Javed Mohsin, Amjad-Nadeem, Dr. Zeus, and Tanishk Bagchi.Songs "DJ bajega toh pappu nachega" is good.

This film has some hilarious comedy situations,rib tickling gags & jokes,some hot girls.

HERO

HERO: is an Indian romantic action film directed by Nikhil Advani a remake of Subhash Ghai's directed 1983 film of the same name starring Sooraj Pancholi, Athiya Shetty,Aditya Pancholi ,Tigmanshu Dhulia.

PERFORMANCES: As newcomer,both actors have to learn many thing.Now they are just about okay.Sooraj has pronunciation problem like our Mahanayak Dev.His dialogue delivery is not clear.Only good physique is not enough to be a Hero.Athiya Shetty is so so.Tigmanshu Dhulia looked just plain upset all the time.Only Adiya Pancholi is good & shines.

MUSIC: composed by Amaal Mallik, Meet Bros Anjjan and Sachin-Jigar."Main Hoon Hero Tera","Khoya Khoya" & "Dance Ke Legend" are good.

The problem lies with the script. It just isn't innovative or fresh enough. Nikhil Advani plays safe and doesn't offer anything new.

Overall,Hero fails to live up to the expectations.if u haven't watched Jackie Shroff starrer Hero(1983 film) then can watch one time in your computers/laptops.Otherwise,leave it....

KATTI BATTI

KATTI BATTI: is an Indian romantic comedy film directed by Nikhil Advani starRING Kangana Ranaut and Imran Khan.

PLOT: Madhav "Maddy" Kabra (Imran Khan) is an architect who is in love with Payal (Kangana Ranaut) because of her attitude towards life. They are in a live-in relationship for 5 years until a sudden turn of events makes Payal leave Maddy.Rest of the film describes why Payel left Maddy & how Maddy find Payel.

PERFORMANCES: Kangna was good.Her acting was also good where as Imran Khan was not so impressive but their chemistry was good.Vivan Bhatena is wasted in a bland role as Payal's ex-boyfriend, Ricky Ahuja. And Manasvi Mamgai as Maddy's colleague Devika is passable. But the two characters who really stand out with realistic performances are Maddy's sister Koyal and his friend Vinay.

MUSIC: composed by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy.Some songs like "sarfira","sau ansoo","lip to lip de kissiya","Ove janiya" are very good.

Weak plot,common storyline,poor direction.The storyline was quite to similar to Imran Khan's Gori Tere Pyar Mei.Only music of this film was the positive side.Otherwise whole movie failed to impress.

Overall, the tragedy of Katti Batti lies in the fault of its director.
