  • Mumbai Meri Jaan: Winner of a film
    Gritty, humane, hard-hitting, touching, despite being on the edge of being preachy in spots towards the end. Quite clearly a winner with superb acting, confident direction and great technical quality. That’s Nishikant ‘Dombivli Fast’ Kamat’s first Hindi film Mumbai Meri Jaan (UTV Motion Pictures) is. The UTV stable, just months after a critically-acclaimed...

    Mumbai Meri Jaan’s (MMJ) latest schedule just started. Ashish Shukla and I were keen on visiting the sets. The shoot was suppose to start at 9:00 am in a studio, but was delayed till 2:00 pm, as the unit had to complete the balance outdoor scenes from yesterday.

Another interesting film but we can’t talk much yet. Wait for it, you’ll know. It seems like a film that wants...

  • Yeh hai Nishikant ki – Mumbai Meri Jaan

While Nishikant was swinging between watching American TV, answering my questions on cinema and dozing off, while Anurag was busy on my computer checking his emails and loudly poking jokes at us from the other room. And as Nishikant was talking about how, what, where and why...
