chak de india - Go grab it!




very well done, simple and heartfelt
indian mainstream sentiment.
(sex and)shah rukh khan and patroitism sells. it always did.
but thats a cliched baseless phrase.
A gripping screenplay beautifully executed will woo the audience
hardly a shah rukh khan film, but with shah rukh khan, its sure to be a crowd puller.
otherwise would have fallen in the cult category that would have anyways got a following but with lesser reach.
all said, it will appeal to indian sentiments.The film belongs to the all girls team.
The emotions of every girl is rightly captured.
films like these would surely help us keep faith in bollywood mainstream.

Applause!!!dont miss this one before the next bandwagon of trailers distract you.

Persona




Writing this review after really long time.
But you just can help it.
You are thrilled to let others know what you have experienced only if it affects you in a really special different way unlike the same mundane movies.
One such movie was Persona by Bergman.
I restore back to this blog genuinly because,
to read through the reviews written a year back, brings in me back the excitement if any, that i experienced while watching it for the first time.
Cutting it short, It left in me a strange feeling that no other movie ever did.
it moved you in a strange way. A very powerful movie.
You cant talk about anything techincally, but just the magic of the director and his actors.

a psychedelic experience
