Don Seenu

"Inti peru Seenu, vonti peru don-u, abbo Amitabh Bachchan ki chala pedaa fan-uu" These dialogues uttered by Raviteja uttered in the movie Don Seenu pretty much give out the synopsis of the movie

Entertainment is defined as the action of providing amusement or enjoyment and Raviteja's movies have them in abundance and this movie too not disappoint. Right from the time he notched up his first big hit with Idiot he provides high-octane entertainment. With the prefix "Mass-Raja" attached to his name it tells us the kind of audience he endears himself to


This movie is no different from the kind of movies we are used to from Raviteja. Credit to the man that inspite of so many movies, he still manages to elicit laughter from the audience. He is one of the few heroes who can carry the entire movie on his shoulders


Coming back to the movie itself, it's one of the those movies where hero meets the heroine and fights happen and they fall in love. Shot in picturesque locales in Europe, first half is breezy and has a lot of entertaining scenes

After the proceedings shift to Hyderabad, we have some twists in the script that takes us to the climax and all is well that ends well

Scenes to watch:

The entire build-up to the entrance scene of Raviteja

The entire Europe scenes with Shriya and Anjana Sukhani, even though they seem to be contrived are brilliantly executed

The Pre-interval block was well built up

The scene between Raviteja and Brahmanandam brings the house down. Best of the lot

All the ensemble comedian cast that comes along with Raviteja is there in the movie, though a lot of them were under-utilised. For the first time in my memory, Raviteja is pairing up with Ali as his side kick and does pretty well

All in all, a hilarious watch

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

Enthiran

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

Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara

Ten years ago a young man gave the Hindi film industry a breath of fresh air with his ‘cult’ film Dil Chahta Hai . It was, in all senses a coming of the age movie. That young man now acts in a movie directed by his sister. The movie bears uncanny resemblance to the movie made by the man himself Starring Hrithik Roshan, Abhay Deol and Farhan Akhtar (in the same order as they appear in screen credits), the movie has a lot going for it. The star cast is a major plus and the biggest positive for the movie is the location that it has been shot in- Spain What starts off as a fun trip changes into one where the protagonists confront their fears and in the process we peel the layers of their personalities. Though at some places the movie seems dragged, it does the job of taking you along with the proceedings. The only complaint, if there has to be one, is the fact that the comic track that involves the boys scaring others seems a little forced. All the three actors appear in most of the scen
