Lootera -- Movie Review!



              Love.Pure love.Not just between any two people.Between two characters( inspired by 'The Last Leaf' I presume). Both the characters played seemlessly by two good actors.

     Now place this love in a historical background in 1950s where excavations,artifacts and a zameendar fit in so perfectly .Colour them with good supporting casts.

          As good as it sounds already,it's definetly not enough to make a good movie. If I became a fan of Vikramaditya Motwane after Udaan,then I dont know what Lootera has done to me.I think I respect his art skill even more now.

            The way he has captured the emotions in every scene which is highlighted in every frame by very appropriate music and amazingly wonderful lyrics.That is what makes it a beautiful poem. It always turns me on whenever there is meaningful lyrics/music.The kind that happens ( more often than not) on A.R.R songs. The lyrics were beautiful. By the way,did I tell you the lyrics were amazing! 

         Individual specific aspects like location, cinematograpy, Screen play etc are like the class toppers  who have writtern their exam and are expecting good scores.So,People (of all ages) if u want to watch a movie ,do see Lootera for its brilliant execution.

             I sort of felt the climax was extended for a min or two(for urban audiences who are more exposed to Hollywood). I am pretty sure V.Motwane has his own reasons for the extra min or two. But I am saying this just out of (some sort of)curiosity/ passion. Between,will they talk less about the money/box office/records/numbers if there were more passionate movie followers in India? Lol, I know India is laughing at me right now.” Bachhe,jaa..apna kaam kr le”. Ok Ok..Let me just finish with how I wanted it to end.Here ends my review. Warning!!!Spoiler ahead if u haven’t seen the movie..







Caution: **************Review Over******** Spolier ahead!!!Read only if you have seen the movie!!





















My Climax:
     Ranveer falls from the tree. The leaf sways(in unnatural position) in brezze. Camera zooms out from the top. And you can see(as they zoom out) the cops standing around the house to take him down. Sonakshi is still sleeping or sitting in her chair cheerfully. Through these scene,in the background you hear all those last lines. ” Mujhe ptte bnana nhi aati…mein ek master piece bnana chahta hu..jisse log hmesha yaad krein...... ” . This would have made a classic ending,rather than that shoot scene.nhi?

MOM : BOLLYWOOD MUSIC REVIEW

Image
                            We in India tend to forget that the film music composers are giving us film music albums and not their own music albums.I always hear my friends say ARR hasnt done well in this album when they dont get any melodious love song or a rock/metal rhythm song etc. I thought I will review MOM movie's music (more of a first impression really) and see what happens..  O Sona Tere Liye: A typical ARR adagio melody about a mom's wishes for her daughter that slowly grows on you with an enduring quality. Yes we have heard it before but the way he blows freshness in to every song is amazing: It was the same window; It was the Same season; It was evening again; but today the wind was magically different! Kooke Kawn: An interesting attempt/experiment.  It has the energy of a party song and interesting 'crow calls' but I am not sure why it fell flat to me personally..May be I have to listen more to start to like it but it's not in my 'now

IPL at its best!!Dnt miss this week!

Half way in to the crucial week which decides the 4 semifinalist,tables have turned yet again and the very interesting thing abt this tournament is that every team looks beatable and given the un predictable nature of the T20 it just adds more sheen to it..Sadly some of it was darkened last weekend by even more un predictable power cut :).But it strikes during Punjab's match with remarkable accuracy :(.I had to follow almost entire King's XI chase in my cell(on friday) and also a few overs in the middle during Deccan's innings on sunday.That last over by I.Pathan to R.Sharma in full flow(and had done it the day before) was awesome and to win it by one run was wonderful.It reminded me of T20 WC final! I can only feel for KKR team/staff and srk.Especially for a succesful celebrity like srk,it shd have been really difficult to see his team fail badly after all those profesional set up from CEO to coach.For players,it should be very difficult to motivate themselves for the

[Movie Review]Avatar--a real dream!

After days of viral fever and a marathon exam schedule,I was tired mentally and physically when i lay down on my seat!And soon I was seeing floating mountains,wierd flying creatures,bright neon like glowing structures,exotic flowers u have hardly seen before,a tree of souls through which u can speak to your forefathers and many more...The dream was chimerical.The dream was pleasant and eye catching.The dream was 'Avatar'. But sooner or later though you have to wake up and you just cant ignore the facts . The same old hackneyed story of 'Man Vs Alien' and the same old characters we have read and have seen in many old classics.No price for guessing what Cameron was concentrating on in this million dollar venture.This is not a movie made on just a wild thought.This is cerebral.In this 3 long hours episode he introduces us to a unique/wierd race and as the protagonist learn from the female lead in the story abt their traditions and culture you would too but after abt 70/
