Raasta (2012)
5/10
Beggar vs Beggar
11 February 2016
Rastaa is the story of two boys, both beggars on the streets of Mumbai directed by Digvijay Chauhan. The film narrates the incident of a day in the life of these boys at a traffic signal, where they both struggle for survival. Shot in Canon 550 D, the film was screened at MAMI 2011. The movie is about 3 minutes long. This movie is about 2 young boys. Boys who beg at traffic signals. Its about competition between them and about how their relation develops. Its about humanity. The movie is well shot. The story is good and so is the direction. The movie teaches that there is no age to be human. It shows one can be when they want. The movie has no dialogues or subtitles and purely relies on the acting and expression of the artists and have to say the boys have done a justice to the role.

Gem of a Movie
7 July 2015
Well, this movie did come as a super surprise to me. Before i started I hardly expected anything out of the movie, thinking it must be one of those crappy zombie wanna-be movies, but 15-20 minutes into the movie I was just engrossed into it. Its a well written, directed and acted movie, kudos to the team.

The movie is about a wildlife photographer who gets bitten by an insect while shooting and his transformation into a zombie. It shows the whole process, emotions and fight of a person while turning man to zombie.

I would highly recommend this movie to anyone who is into the Zombie genre and is looking forward to a good zombie movie.

Death Valley (2011)
10/10
Want more more more....
5 May 2014
Zombies, Werewolves, Vampires, cops, Supernatural, comedy, thriller, suspense, romance, action, superb punch lines, blood, gore... what else can you ask for...

I stumbled upon this title accidentally and god am i glad i did.. its one of the best overall series i have ever ever ever scene... i mean who could have thought to give a comic angle on zombies, werewolves and vampires... but someone just did...

the acting is good, the chemistry amazing, dialogues superb...

i really don't wanna give a lot about the plot.. but all i did like to say is that its a buddy cop movie where they don't chase / catch / kill normal criminals but the new "criminals" - vampires, werewolves and zombies....

its just WOW.. if you love comedy and zombies, werewolves and vampires....

I am actually super duper surprised, shocked and sad that this was not followed by a second season.. which it deserved a lot...

Pathetic///

this is by far the most crappiest movie i have ever ever seen... one of the rare times where i was not able to continue a movie after like 15-20 mins.. otherwise i give a movie a shot just in case.. but couldn't take this movie at all...

nothings right in this movie... be it storyline, acting, editing, dialogues, camera-work, direction.. you name it and its bad in this movie... i think i can shoot better with my hand held camera compared to this movie...

this movie is a disgrace to Bollywood... or as a matter of fact to any film industry... they should ban this movie to be telecasted anywhere anytime...

my request to all... don't even try to watch this movie if you love yourself.. its a complete NO NO NO!!!!

Joker (2012)
7/10
Not as bad as everyone is making it look
9 November 2012
i just watched the movie yesterday night and was surprised how the movie was not at all as bad as everyone is reviewing it...

its a simple story of how one person tries to get his village noticed and on the map of India so that there problems can be solved... and the best way they come up is to show that there are extra-territorial activities happening in their area... so that everyone takes notice of their small village..

though the start of the movie does look bad, boring and slow.. it picks up the pace after mins or so and you actually start enjoying the movie..

my advice to all would be at least give it a shot and find out for yourself how the movie is actually...

One of the best movies of Indian Cinema
26 October 2012
Paan Singh was a small town lad who went on to win the steeplechase at the Indian National Games for seven consecutive years. He broke the national record, a feat that was unsurpassed for 10 years! A series of life changing events however forced Paan Singh to give up athletics, pick up the gun and become the scourge of the infamous Chambal Valley in Central India. Filled with deep emotions and fateful twists, Paan Singh Tomar is a gritty, no holds barred action-adventure set in the heart of India's gangland, Chambal.

This is probably one of the best movies of Indian Cinema... tight script, great direction backed up by some fabulous acting by Irfan Khan.. he has to be one of the best actors of realistic cinema... through out the movie there isn't a single frame which looks unnecessary and a single scene which is boring.. it will keep you glued to your seats...

i suggest its a must watch for fans of some good cinema...

Total Recall (I) (2012)
6/10
Good time-pass if you don't compare to the Original
31 August 2012
Finally, the much awaited and hyped remake of the original Total Recall is out. so how does it fare?

its a good watch if you have not seen or don't recall the original (like in my case - no recall ;) ). Movie starts off with a strong scene but i think it pretty much spoils the surprise / twist element. The movie is high on action (plenty of it) but not so high on story and logic, but who goes to watch such movie for logic.

Personal review on acting:-

Colin Farrell - not bad i did say, looked suitable and apt for the role.

Jessica Biel - strong performance, delivered what she had.

Kate Beckinsale - The real BAD-ASS of the movie. she rocked and i think she just stole it.

Overall, a watchable movie only they could have ended it in a better way.

Enjoy.

Sadda Adda (2012)
8/10
Worth a watch.. needs word of mouth...
29 May 2012
well i generally don't write reviews... but after seeing this movie.. i thought that i just have to write one and tell everyone that its a movie worth a watch... it all about wanting something in life... falling.. and then getting up and fulfilling you dreams... like the saying.. the only thing that can stop you from achieving your dreams is YOU....

the story revolves around 6 bachelor buddies, with completely different back grounds and dreams, living in one apartment and their journey to their dreams...

i would suggest its a very good watch when you want to watch a decent movie with good does of laughter...

Ra.One (2011)

Skip it... Run... Far Far Away....
9 January 2012
Warning: Spoilers
i generally don't write reviews but just could help myself in writing for this movie... as i don't want the people to go thru the same pain and torture i went through in watching this movie... I want my 2hrs and 35 mins back....

this movie has nothing to offer... nothing at all.. i really have no idea why did they even make this movie.. if they had lots of money they should have just done some community work with it rather that wasting on this piece of crap...

the whole movie just revolves around Shah Rukh Khan and rest all actors are wasted.. including Kareena Kapoor and Arjun Rampal (the main reason why i went thru the movie and he is in the movie for like barely 20-25 mins)... it looked to me as if the movie was made as an advertising gimmick for Shah Rukh....

all said and done.. my advice to all would be skip this movie.. even if you have free time to kill i am sure you will find something better to do than waste on this movie....

what just hit me????
9 January 2011
damn... dunno where to start from...

its a really really weird kinda good movie.. one which will keep you engrossed till the end... its full of sex, rape, murder, gore and is definitely not for the weak heart-ed ones...

the movie revolves around a semi-retired porn star who has given it all up.. that is until he starts facing cash problems.. just that time one of his ex-colleagues comes to him and offer him a role in one of her associates so called "art" movie.. and seeing the money that is offered to him he is pulled back in.. that is until he realizes what is happening.. and then the real movie starts which u should see for your self...

the only question that you will ask yourself after watching this movies is... do people actually make such kind of movies??? and if yes, what kind of sick people watch it and enjoy it????
