Kahaani
(2012)

Watch it for sure !!!
"Kahaani" is exactly What it claims to be.... A whole new ball game.....

Kahaani starts slowly... however, In no time it unfolds the layers and gears up the pace.....intermission will leave you puzzled... henceforth ,You will be glued at the edge of your seat in second half and will try to reveal the nail-biting mystery ..

Back to back , well come back enigmatic Vidya Balan ...! She neither has size zero nor the movie has a muscular Hero.... But She elevates entire film on her own...you will certainly love to watch Bidaa Bagchi... Her agony... anxiety and intelligence ! Jhankaar Beats fame Sujoy Gosh gave his best to the film .... be it writing or directing... Music/background score is good.. No excessive songs... Cinematography is excellent..

Casting crew is good.. Specially cold blooded Bob....Besides actors , brilliantly shown temperament of Kolkata throughout the movie is admirable ! climax may not be liked by every1(I liked it)

To conclude : Watch it for sure

Paan Singh Tomar
(2012)

Watch before the film get nominated for Oscars !!!
Tired of watching mediocre movies since beginning of this year?would like to turn your Holi into Diwali ? Here is an answer ! "Paansing Tomar " ! Real life to reel life transition.

The Biopic does not only expose Injustice to the sports people in our country , but also portrays a national champion runner (steeplechase) who becomes more famous as a dacoit ( I m sorry ........ as a rebel :) ........life is not what you plan, design or expect.... But its all about what is planned , designed and expected... By destiny Irfan : What an actor ! , no words for him..... just a big clap ! how magnificently he portrays the character of Paansing Tomar on the screen ..! another (loop of) round of the claps.... He really deserves .... you can't take your eyes off him...

Maahi Gil : Her role doesn't have length but shows her strength .... As an actress.. Bollywood , fill up the vacancy of Smita Patil... She is the appropriate candidate Even supportings have done good !, dialogues, music, everything is adorable How can I forget Tigmanshu Dhulia ! His detailed direction has put this film Into a must watch category ! To conclude : Watch before the film get nominated for Oscars!

London Paris New York
(2012)

A movie for urban youngistan !
About London Paris New York(LPNY) : It's a semi fresh romantic drama and not an absolute romcom...Basic idea is borrowed from a Hollywood movie and British novel "One Day" ....

LPNY is a 100 minute film .... Its all about 3days...3 cities ....two protagonists of contrasting nature...Their angst... Their love ... Break up ... patch up... (and pack up ;) over eight years. Its also about growing up – how we change, how we stay the same.( Time flies, season changes, but essential remains the same )

Director debutant...Anu Menon deserves words of praise not only because she dared to touch distinct subject but also wrote good story and dialogues for her first film. As a director she needs to brush-up..coz she failed to exploit optimum potential of the script. Had Karn Johar or Imtyaz Ali touched the subject... It could have been a block buster ...

Short & slick film has only two protagonists I.e Ali zafar and Aditi Rao Hydari... Rest are one liners .

Versatile Ali Zafar ....!!! He has carried multiple responsibility for the film .... an actor, Lyricists,Musician and singer ... ( acting part can be improved , few plots are overacted ... Seems more like a melodrama sometimes, Music dept. is good)

Aditi justifies her role in different stages... She Can be a hope for Bollywood...

To conclude: As LPNY is carrying a different story... It is for Urban youngistan or People who stay young at heart... If you fall in the category , you may like it

Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance
(2011)

Ghost rider eats your soul and Money too !!!
About  Ghost Rider: spirit of vengeance -- The man on fire is back with his hell bike ... But, looks like he is just serving a barbecue treat  this time ;)

I went to watch the film because of crank fame director duo Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor. But they failed (including script writer) to translate marvel's characters on the screen :( .

Though the length of the film is only 95 mins , you will get shattered on your seats... Haphazard action scenes, poor screenplay and mediocre  acting will defiantly disappoint you.

Nicolas cage as Johnny blaze seems confused to understand his role..However, He is good as Ghost rider (because Ghost rider neither speaks nor expresses ...It's just technical ;) BTW digital makeover of Ghost rider is better than the last1. Idris Elba as Moreau is considerable.... All I can say about Italian beauty violante placido (Nadya) is Miss you Eva Mendes( Roxanne - Ghost rider2007) in this sequel 

To conclude : watch only if you have nothing better to do ...

Ekk Deewana Tha
(2012)

Tollywood remakes can not attract Bollywood audience always... Here is an example !
About Ekk Deewana Tha(EDT): The film is  a remake of Tollywood hit "Vinnaithandi Varuvaayaa" ...but climax plot is inspired by  "Ye Maaya Chesaave".

RHTDM fame Guatam  Menon may be  successful director of Tollywood but for bollywood   you will have to wait Mr. Menon…

A slow pace movie ….. Which has  surfeit of Rahman's song….  Aaaahhhh ! Love at first site .... And romance in the film can not convince you in Toto.. Few plots are nice to watch... And rest of them are dragging the movie...

Prateik  is getting better as an actor but still he needs to improve to carry entire film on his shoulder ! 

Gorgeous Amy Jackson looks magnificent in the saree with her contours ! That is the only best part of hers in the movie !

Maths of Amy Jackson may be good   In EDT  but chemistry and physics with Prateik  is not admirable ! 

Supporting actors have done better than the leads !

To conclude :  fresh bachelors, true Tollywood fan and few others who can correlate ..   May like the film..... Watch once if you really want to...or can be avoided !
