Mukhbir
August 31, 2008
The producers of Mukhbir had claimed that if for some strange reason (according to them!) someone doesn’t like the movie, they can always ask for their money back. Well, the moment the makers of the film resorted to such suicidal techniques to attract people to their films, our expectations about the film took a sharp dip. After having watched Mukhbir, we are kind of left in a soup. Mukhbir is definitely not a masterpiece; but it’s a decent try and appears to be an honest effort that’s unfortunately lost in its own world; and the soup we are left in looks tasteless!
Rock On!!
August 30, 2008
Only boxoffice fate will tell whether it’s an audacity or a smart venture by Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar to make a movie on a Rock Band which makes it big in a country where not even a single rock band has made it big till date! With Javed Akhtar writing the lyrics for [...]

Never Go Public!
C Kkompany Movie Review By Raju Shanbhag
After sitting through a grueling two and half hours of this yawn inspiring movie, we felt that this kkompany should never have gone public. Now that it already has gone public, all we can do is to warn the public why they should never buy the shares [...]
Chamku
August 29, 2008
2007 had been a busy year for Bobby Deol with 5 big releases. Now after a rather subdued beginning in 2008, the Deols are back with Chamku, a home production in an attempt to revive the family’s Vijayata banner. Directed by Kabeer Kaushik, the story revolves around the life of a trained Naxalite. He has lived a life of violence and brutality; and when he travels from the interiors of Bihar to Mumbai, he finds himself facing his violent past once more as he falls headlong into a world of crime. The tagline of the movie says, “Will love set him free?”
1920 Songs and Music Review
August 26, 2008
Directed and produced by Vikram Bhatt of Raaz fame, 1920 is a horror film that promises period flavor and a launch pad for two newcomers; Rajneesh Duggal (Mr. India 2003) and Bhatt’s new find, the blue eyed Adah Sharmam. It tells the story of an Indian boy who falls in love with an English [...]

Ram Gopal Varma finishes his note about Phoonk with a warning, Don’t say I didn’t warn you! We just hope that this warning is for the viewers and not to the producers Praveen Nischol & Azam Khan!!! In the past, Varma has made many horror movies, and not all of them were intentional! Except Bhoot, all other Varma horror flicks have created a lot many horrors in box office…
Mumbai Meri Jaan

The spirit of Mumbai just can’t be spoon fed!
Mumbai Meri Jaan Movie Review By Bhushan
The ’spirit’ of Mumbai continues to be elusive, although Nishikant Kamat’s Mumbai Meri Jaan is an admirable attempt to capture the ’spirit’ and seal it in a celluloid bottle.
Nevertheless Kamat does manage to stir you.
This, when a slew of Bollywood films [...]
Maan Gaye Mughall-E-Azam
August 22, 2008
Mallika Sherawat’s stint at comedy hasn’t been particularly successful. Sanjay Chhel’s stint at comedy as a director hasn’t won accolades either. Do two negatives make a positive? Maybe bollywood has taken Mallika’s off-screen behavior little too seriously….
Bachna Ae Haseeno
August 15, 2008
Yash Raj film’s long lasting romance with the box office has gone sour with some of their last films. After the success of Chak De India, all their films such as Laaga Chunari Mein Daag, Aaja Nachle, Tashan and Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic haven’t exactly set the box office on fire. On the other [...]

After making Amitabh Bachchan play Bhooth in Bhoothnath and failing miserably, bollywood is trying its luck by making him play God this time! Original??? Nope, Bollywood relies on Hollywood even for such stories. The story is lifted from….
