    APKGK : Hasna Zaroori hai in this Love Story of Mr. President
    Forget unstoppable media frenzy with the stories of powerful Presidents and details of the secret behind the physical beauty of the few of the first ladies, APKGK is far more interesting story of a far more interesting President and only woman (apart from his mother) in his life, Jenni, his love interest. What if he is the President of “Happy Club”? Unlike political...

    Rishi Kapoor : Mein ab bachcha nahin hoon!
    First part of Mera Naam Joker was heavily dependent on the acting skills of a young boy Rishi Kapoor, who had made his debut with this film. There is a scene in MNJ and any teenager actor has yet to supersede or even match the performance given by Rishi Kapoor in that particular scene. Raju, a young boy is confessing before the statue of Jesus in a church and his teacher,...

    Prasoon Joshi : a ‘Gulzar’ in the making?
    I have been at this post for quite a while now. But yesterday when I chanced upon this news piece that Prasoon Joshi was given the Shailendra award, I was spurred on to complete the post. When I look around at all the lyrical mockery that’s happening and all the poetical gimmickry, I wonder what will be the fate of lyrics in cinema, going ahead. Its not a very happy...

    Yaari Hai Imaan Mera, Yaar Meri Zindagi- Friendship as depicted in Bollywood Films
    On behalf of Ashwin I dedicate this post to Vrushali, who according to Ashwin is the best friend in the world. Friendship is an integral part of our emotions and friends occupy an important part of our lives. In some cases friends often are given the same status as that of family members when it comes to certain crunch situations. For someone who has been brought up over...

    You know what? Shahrukh Khan and Aamir Khan have buried their differences. For the cause of a body called the united forum or something like that.

    Luck By Chance – A Tautology
    Francis Voltaire has this famous quote to his credit: Chance is a word devoid of sense, nothing can exist without a cause. I too believe in it, quite strongly. In fact, the tautology has driven me to write this post. The title of the movie is a tautology and so is the content. Zoya Akhtar has used the word Luck as well as By Chance, both meaning almost the same. Zoya,...

    Aamir Khan supersedes other super stars of commercial hindi cinema in 2008
    Ghazini has similarities with many films like Memento, Jhootha Kahin Ka and Pasand Apni Apni etc, but does it reduce the intensity of hard work Aamir Khan needed to put in the character, he has played?
