  Movie Review: Mehbooba

  A film like MEHBOOBA makes you nostalgic. It takes you back to the cinema of 1990s, when an altogether new breed of film-makers took over Bollywood. Multiple heroes, lavish sets, scenic locations… money was being pumped in from all corners in Hindi movies.

  Subhash K Jha talks about Love Story 2050

  A star is most certainly born here. No two ways about it. After watching Harman Baweja sing, dance, emote, entertain, engage and adlib in this Adlabs presentation for a full three hours, one wonders if there is anything that this Baweja boy from Bollywood can't do!

  Subhash K Jha talks about Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na

  A blessed week at the movies. If this week we get Harman Baweja as the full filmy package of an all-rounder, we also get Imran Khan…Fresh - faced original and possessing a natural screen presence that immediately connects him with the audience.

  Movie Review: JAANE TU… YA JAANE NA

  Two decades ago, the Mansoor Khan-helmed QAYAMAT SE QAYAMAT TAK, starring two newcomers [Aamir Khan, Juhi Chawla], focused on teenage love, with parental opposition acting as an obstacle.

  Movie Review: Via Darjeeling

  Some ideas translate into interesting, 2-hour films. But some ideas, though translated on screen, make you feel that they're best suited for television. That's what you experience when you watch VIA DARJEELING.

  Movie Review: Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic

  A film like THODA PYAAR THODA MAGIC makes you nostalgic. It takes you back to the light-hearted, feel-good cinema made by directors of calibre like Hrishikesh Mukherjee and Basu Chatterjee. The focus was on narrating a simple story. A movie that put a smile on your face even if you walked in with a frown.

  Movie Review: Khushboo

  Love stories can never go out of fashion, at least in Bollywood. KHUSHBOO, directed by Rajesh Ram Singh, tells the story of a Sikh girl and a Tamil boy, the ups and downs in their relationship, but before you draw parallels with the classic EK DUUJE KE LIYE, let's clarify that the two movies are as diverse as chalk and cheese. In terms of content as also execution.

  Movie Review: Haal-e-dil

  This common question is addressed to the producer [Kumar Mangat], director [Anil Devgan] and lead actors [Amita Pathak, Nakuul Mehta, Adhyayan Suman] of HAAL-E-DIL: What actually did you see in the script of this film?

• 

  Movie Review: De Taali

  If you've watched the promos of DE TAALI, you'd expect a film with tremendous youth power. You'd expect gags, gimmicks, laughter-n-sunshine and lots and lots of fun. But DE TAALI is anything but this!

  Movie Review: Summer 2007

  Quite often, a burning issue that hits front-page news makes it on the Hindi screen as well. SUMMER 2007, directed by Suhail Tatari, also projects a disturbing issue: Farmers committing suicides. The intentions of the film-makers should be lauded. But there's a hitch…

  Review: Mere Baap Pehle Aap

  The name Priyadarshan is synonymous with comic fares. It instantaneously conjures up images of several entertaining films he has attempted over the years. Naturally, you expect his new outing MERE BAAP PEHLE AAP to be a joyride as well.

• 

  'Sarkar Raj'- a chaotic, dissapointing sequel

  Dark, sinister, sinewy and rugged - "Sarkar Raj" is Shakespeare on cocaine. Or the lacerated life of a Thackeray-like family with the concept of spatial harmony becoming meaningless because of the disembodied camera movements.

• 

  Movie Review: Hastey Hastey - Follow your Heart

  The reason why a majority of films go unnoticed is courtesy the weak storyline first. The other factors come later. HASTEY HASTEY - FOLLOW YOUR HEART also suffers for this reason.

• 

  Movie Review: Woodstock Villa

  Hindi cinema is slowly waking up to hardcore thrillers. Earlier this year, Abbas-Mustan's RACE chartered a totally novel path. The twists-n-turns in the plot moved in a serpentine manner, with the viewer finding it difficult to guess what the outcome would be.

  Movie Review Dhoom Dadakka

  Comedies are the flavor of the season and more and more film-makers are following the formula re-invented by David Dhawan and Priyadarshan. Entertainment is the key word, while a logical story goes out of the window.

• 

  Movie Preview: Haal-e-dil

  When love is not madness, it is not love…Haal-e-Dil is about the same neurotic madness that one suffers from when stuck in the maze called love. It's a young love story of people who'd go any lengths to loose themselves as smoke loses itself to the sky. They'd go any lengths to fuse that they'd not know where one ended and another began.
