  Some of the writing invested into this not-bad comic look at the roller-coaster called marriage is surprisingly sharp.

  Movie Review: Life Partner

  On the whole, LIFE PARTNER may lack the hype, but this one springs a pleasant surprise. It's aimed at the families and that section of movie-going audience should take to it gradually, with a strong word of mouth. The holidays in its opening weekend should help the film grow!

  Movie Review: Chal Chalein

  Making an effective film that makes a social statement is a task which not many are able to master. It either creates ripples like TAARE ZAMEEN PAR or goes horribly wrong. CHAL CHALEIN attempts to tackle a new and interesting topic - parental pressure on children - but doesn't make much of an impact due to reasons.

  Movie Review: Teree Sang

  On the whole, TEREE SANG has a new story tell and that is its biggest USP. At the box-office, the film may be a slow starter, but has the merits to pick up with word of mouth if the youth as also the family audiences take to it.

  Movie Review: Agyaat

  Ramgopal Varma thinks differently. This time too the maverick film-maker defies the stereotype and takes to the dense forests of Sri Lanka to meet an 'unknown' force.

• 

  Subhash Jha on 'Teree Sang'

  This is Raj Kapoor's "Bobby" with furtive sex and a baby thrown in for good measure. Otherwise the boy-meets-girl formula never seemed more homage-bound. Soft to the touch, but underpinned by a strong message on sex and the single parent, "Teree Sang" is a sweet and likable spin on premature parenthood.

  Subhash K Jha speaks about Love Aaj Kal

  The first thing to be said about this incredibly enchanting excursion into the matter of the heart as seen in contemporary times and in times gone-bye-bye , is ... what's wrong with these two people who are so much in love?

  Movie Review 2: Love Aaj Kal' is just another love story

  Yes, one understands where Ali was coming from when he decided to convey that the emotion of love was just the same across different generations. In the end, however, "Love Aaj Kal" turns out to be just another love story.

  Movie Review: Love Aaj Kal

  Come to think of it, if the film carries the 'burden' of humungous expectations, it's imperative that it goes beyond those expectations. The reaction after watching the film has to be similar to a child who has laid his hands on his fav toy. The joyous smile would say it all. The question is, does LOVE AAJ KAL live up to the hype and hoopla surrounding it? Or does it go beyond that?
