Movie Review: Wanted



Most WANTED : Tinsel town is flooded with wanted mania, TV Channels are loaded with wanted trailers, Media is mudded with wanted articles, dialogues are already on the lips of fans.

Advertisements have already associated with wanted promotion, even serials are equipped with wanted mystery (CID). However salman has given some good openers in this decade too but none of them was having such a hype-hoopla before release.

Hype - Hoopla: 1 - After Gadar, we did not get any good and real action thriller. Some Akshay Kumar movies pretend to be back in action genre, but they fail to enthrall miserably, infect all those were not action movies in real sense.

2 - Audience is dying to see action packed bonanza which had not witnessed after Gadar and this movie trailers ignite this fire

3 - Trailers are stylish packed with all those punches of action and dialogue which makes their presence on everyone�s lips even before release. Like �Ek baar jo isne commitment kar diya� us ke baad to ye khud ki bhi nahi Sunta�

4 - Salman Khan in new stylish avataar of contract killer, this is avataar which Salman fans were dying to see.

5 - Choreography are really well, however songs are quite well which is choreographed superbly by Prabhu deva which is always desirable.

6 - Wanted is south blockbuster Pokiri remake; previously Ghajini remake has registered record breaking collections. This is really raising the bars. The movie is Salman�s pride as well as Other�s envy.



Storyline : Radhe is a hardcore gangster. A sharpshooter with a sharp brain, he works for Gani Bhai, the dreaded Mafioso, but on his own terms.

Totally fearless, Radhe single handedly eliminates Gani Bhai�s enemies one by one; making more enemies in the process than he bargained for�

He�s astounded when the young and pretty Jhanvi professes her liking for him. Inspector Talpade�s lustful eyes fall on Jhanvi. He doesn�t know that Jhanvi has developed a soft corner for Radhe.

Whether it�s the Golden Gang or Data Pawle�s Gang; everybody wants the biggest piece of the lucrative cake that is Mumbai and the only way to get it is to eliminate whoever gets in the way.

As Mumbai reels under bloody gang wars, Commissioner Ashraf Khan vows to make the city crime free and starts his campaign by arresting 200 criminals in a single day.

It�s free for all with gangsters from rival gangs out to get each other and the police out to get the whole lot of them. And in a surprising twist, Radhe becomes the most wanted man in Mumbai.

He was dead by the gangsters because he knows too much. He is alive by the police because they�re desperate to know what he knows.

Narration � high points : The biggest asset of the film is the music by Sajid - Wajid which is definitely bound to rule the charts. Four songs of the film look very pleasing to the eye.

Two more songs remain to be filmed at that time and they shall be shot in Greece once Salman is back from London. The action scene just before the interval is totally out of this world and will see the public going wild in the theatres.

Also the handsome actor has never looked more dashing than in this movie as well which will ensure his legions of fans making sure they watch the film.

Box Office : Wanted is a remake of Prabhu Deva�s Tamil film �Pokkiri�, which again was a remake of Mahesh Babu - lleana�s movie.

The movie starring Salman Khan and Ayesha Takia had faced numerous delays but now the movie is all set to hit the screens on September 18th 2009.

Movie Review: Baabarr



Casting : What's the star cast like? Baabarr has a new face, Sohum, and that is its USP. Since he doesn't carry the baggage of an image, it makes the character more believable.

But there's a flipside, too. Baabarr is dark and gruesome, and a few sequences can actually put you off. However, this also speaks of how much impact the film has.

Crew :Baabarr is Ashuu Trikha's best work so far. His handling of the dramatic sequences is commendable. Action scenes (Abbas Ali Moghul) are true to life.

Cinematography (Suhass Gujarathi) deserves full marks. In fact, a film like Baabarr is difficult to shoot and it must've been a challenge for the DoP to give the right texture to the film.

Storyline: A 12 year old boy picks up a country made gun and shoots a man in cold blood! His eyes, devoid of any emotion. His heart exhibits no remorse.

After shooting the person in broad day light, this 12 year old boy walked the streets of Aman Ganj, with a gun in one hand. Everyone present in the market watched this young lad walk with no fear.

The fear in fact had translated, from him into everyone's heart there. He had made a mark!!! The boy who started from the streets of Aman Ganj had trespassed every barrier of crime. For the 10 years that followed he traumatized one and all.

His reign of fear terrorized everyone in the state, right from the common man to the Government. This was � 'Baabarr' (Soham Shah)!!! In May 2004, when this reign of fear knew no bounds, the Government summoned a man to put an end to all of this.

Encounter specialist S. P. Dwivedi (Mithun Chakraborty) was introduced for this act; this time the order was simple, arrest him or kill him!!! On job, S.P. Dwivedi realizes that there is more than what meets the eye.

It is not only Baabarr, but there exists a cartel that is tough to penetrate!! Baabarr in fact, feeds on the very people that want him dead. S.P. Dwivedi realizes that there is no straight strategy around this.

So he along with his associate, Daroga (Om Puri) set out to nab the one man who is untouchable today. These two will do anything under the purview of the law or even over it, to curb this antisocial.

For this they would need to get into their scheme the dreaded adversary of Baabarr called Tabrez (Sushant Singh), but without his knowledge.

Script :Writer Ikram Akhtar's script is power-packed and has several twists and turns. In fact, the final sequence of the film catches you unawares � what makes Baabarr stand out from the crowd. The dialogues deserve special mention.

Performance :Sohum lives the character of Baabarr and delivers a performance that will live in your mind. The film would've fallen flat had it been entrusted to a lesser actor. Mithun Chakraborty is very good. In fact, this is amongst his bett

Om Puri stands out. This film should easily go into the 'Best of Om Puri' catalogue. Tinnu Anand is a revelation. Where was Tinnu all this while? Shakti Kapoor is top notch. Again, he seems to be in form after a long, long time.

Movie Review: Chintuji

Chintuji

ChintujiNext Gen Films and Kaleidoscope Entertainment announced today the release of Chintuji, a humorous take on actors becoming politicians.

Starring veteran actor Rishi Kapoor who plays himself [Chintu Kapoor], the hilarious satire is scheduled to release on 4th September.

After being highly appreciated in the super hit Love Aaj Kal, Rishi Kapoor is all set to captivate audiences with his character driven role in Chintuji where he plays himself Rishi ‘Chintu’ Kapoor.

Set in a small but beautiful village called ‘Hadbahedi’, Chintuji casts Rishi Kapoor in an intriguing role, which has been very special to the actor.

The film has been produced by Bobby Bedi and written & directed by Ranjit Kapoor of cult comedy ‘Jane Bhi Do Yaaron’ fame of which he wrote the dialogues.

In this hilarious satire on actors becoming politicians, the film takes the fun route with Rishi Kapoor playing a ‘reel life brat’ portraying all his ‘real life’ idiosyncrasies.

Speaking of his role in Chintuji, Rishi Kapoor says, “I’m thrilled with this role as this is the first time I have portrayed a character this close to my real personality.

I had a ball playing this role and it occupies a very special place in my heart. Despite being an uproarious comedy, the film still manages to remain meaningful and beautifully brings out the satire and emotions.

It’s a superb blend of fiction and reality. In the words of one of my Father, Shri Raj Kapoor’s favourite songs – it is “Aadhi Haqeeqat, Aadha fasana”.

The film stars Rishi Kapoor as lead protagonist along with Priyanshu Chatterjee, Kulraj Randhawa, Grusha Kapoor and Sourabh Shukla with a special performance by Sophie Choudhary.

Movie Review: Aagey Se Right



Movie setting : A bumbling police inspector is looking for his lost revolver. A terrorist has fallen in love. Chaos follows. That�s the three parts of the movie is all about?

Instead the movie is like a high-speed automobile without controls.

The story keeps taking random turns - not only Aagey Se Right - but left and centre too.

And sometimes, it almost drives itself over the cliff.

That's because director Indrajit Nattoji gets greedy with the gags � he wants one every second and only a few work -- without really caring about a neatly constructed plot.

Performance : Not too good for K K Menon and Shreyash Talpade and Mahi Gill are all fine actors.

Storyline : Freshly - recruited cop Dinkar Waghmare (Shreyas Talpade) would rather play marbles with the kids in his village than lose them chasing terrorist.

But life seems to have other plans for him. Time and again, he becomes an accidental hero.

And, the terrorist who has come by sea would rather blow up the Mumbai police headquarters than fall in love with a singer in the bar.

Ingredients: On the face of it, Aagey Se Right has all the ingredients, including a great cast, to be a side-splitting feast of laughter.
