Arya-2

Right this has been a movie in waiting for quite some time now. Speculations were that the director and the producer were at loggerheads and producer was looking to stall the movie were unfounded. One thing that was pretty certain was that the movie would not release in the vicinity of Magadheera

Arya was released in the year 2004 and was a run-away hit. People associated with the movie are not calling it a sequel. Even I buy the argument that it is not a sequel. Director has intelligently woven same kind of a script as Arya but in a different milieu. This movie has a corporate background compared to college background from it's predecessor

Sukumar is like a blessing in disguise for Telugu film industry. Not only was his first movie a cult hit but the second movie, where the directors skills are put to test. Sukumar passed that test with Jagadam. He brings some techinical finesse for sure into this movie

Allu Arjun's performance is worthy and adds to his growing stature and repertoire. He has performed well as an unpredictable person and this role would be remembered after some years. Navadeep, Kajal and others are passe

    Nope!! I found this movie to be absurd.. Da guy ws soo unsure of wt he wanted to show...... n Allu arjun ws gud bt there ws no use of it as the story line ws too vague!! Felt as if he started making the movie n then as the shooting proceeded, he wrote the rest of the story....... like ny other SOAP.

There was a time , when I was a Chiranjeevi fan, to an extent that I even defended his flop movies such as Rickshavodu, Big Boss and others of the same ilk. For me he was was the ultimate star- the superstar. And hearing tales of Amitabh Bachchan from my father did nothing to alter my views on Chiranjeevi's superstardom Towards the end of my graduation, that is circa 2005 in April, two movies released- Mumbai Express and Chandramukhi. I went to Mumbai Express for the first day first show and was not impressed. Rajnikanth, coming off a colossal flop called  Baba  and Chandramukhi was touted to be his comeback vehicle. Since we had nothing to do, we dragged ourselves to Chandramukhi and I was impressed with the fact that as a superstar, he allowed the female protagonist to run away with the credit Well when Sivaji released, I got to see Rajni mania first hand and what a sight it was! I was in Bangalore and there was a serpentine queue to procure the tickets. The sheer magnitude

Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol

BREAKING NEWS: Allu Arjun and Ravi Teja from Telugu movies make a fleeting appearance in Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol. Doesn't matter that they appear in a TV footage in the movie From the time it was announced that Anil Kapoor would be a part of the Mission Impossible franchise, it was marked as an awaited movie in India. It was widely anticipated that he would play a major role in the movie. Though he serves as a major connecting link in the movie or rather the main reason, why the movie moves to India, he is projected as a lusting billionaire One of the very good things about the movie is its humour content. There are a lot of subtle one-liners by the guy who operates the computer and is the technical guru in the movie. The movie is about an evil mind getting his hand on nuclear warhead and the mission is to stop a full blown war between USA and Russia There are a lot of things that are interlinked in the movie. For example, at the beginning of the mission when it’s sa

Jab Harry met Sejal

  I am writing this after Shahrukh Khan came out of the box-office rut with a movie called “Pathaan”. I am writing this about a movie that contributed to the box-office rut; Jab Harry met Sejal.   What can you say about the movie that’s unsaid? It’s an Imtiaz Ali movie. It will showcase travel. It will have the protagonists mouthing philosophical dialogues about love, life and relationships. It will have the protagonists “finding themselves” during the journey.   Shahrukh Khan and Anushka Sharma put in earnest efforts in the movie, but the movie lets them down. While I was watching the movie, the person next to me (who wasn’t even watching) asked if Anushka Sharma was playing a Gujarati in the movie. That in my eyes is Anushka Sharma nailing her bit.   The problem with the movie isn’t the premise but how the director deviates from the premise often. While it may be deliberate, it does seem that the director wants to leave his “signature”. At times, the movie does seem like
