फर्ज, फर्जी, वर्दी और मर्जी!! Uri Review!!

It\’s not often that one of your passion is belated by another of your passion. As I had been for a bike ride to Konkan on the weekend this movie released, I watched it a couple of days later. As the name and trailer suggest, this movie is about the manner in which 19 soldiers […]

The \”accidental\” Prime Minister or a \”purposefully\” timed film..?

Let\’s get some things straight. There aren\’t any startling revelations in this movie. Even for those who haven\’t read the book and have very basic knowledge of Indian politics of the times. So when the story is very much familiar, what else can you look for? There\’s barely any screen time for characters other than

महाराष्ट्राचं लाडकं व्यक्तिमत्व.. एकाच व्यक्तीतल्या अनेक वल्ली.. आणि माझा लेखन आदर्श!!

ज्या माणसाच्या लेखनावर माझी आणि आधीच्या बहुतेक २ पिढ्या मोठया झाल्या त्याच्यावरील जीवनपट ही पर्वणीच होती! फक्त थोडीशी धाकधूक पण होती की काही अंशी तरी त्या ताकदीचे सादरीकरण होते का?? तर सुरुवात होते ती पुलं प्रयाग नावाच्या डेक्कन जिमखाना, पुणे येथील इस्पितळात भरती असताना त्यांना भेटायला येणाऱ्या निकटवर्तीयांपासून आणि त्याबरोबर येणाऱ्या त्यांच्या आठवणीं पासून.. आणि

Men are (coming back younger after 15 years) from Mars, Women are (supposedly) from Earth and the story is from altogether a different universe.. The experimental hero… Zero!!

The movie begins with a cowboy SRK rescuing his girlfriend from a group of goons.. or so it seems…. The dialogues seemed like borrowed from a Sallu movie, the typical over the top style types, but the whole setup is just a mirage… The movie goes on a downward spiral from that offbeat introductory punch

Bohemian Rhapsody.. A King with a band named Queen..The story of mercurial Freddie Mercury that will \”Rock You\”!

Some things are just destined to happen! Similarly some movies, you are just destined to watch! This was one of them. There were no other decent movie tickets to be gotten and one of my dear friends was insisting on this one. So the movie starts with a mercurial Mercury ready to take stage for

आणि… डॉ. काशीनाथ घाणेकर!! एकदम कडक!! Aani.. Kashinath Ghanekar! Review!

पाहायचं हे तर नक्की होतंच, प्रश्न फक्त कोणाबरोबर आणि केव्हा हा होता! आणि अनेक वर्षानंतर मातोश्रींबरोबर सिनेमा पाहण्याचा योग आला. हल्ली सिनेमातला मधलाच प्रसंग सुरुवातीला दाखवून अर्ध्याहुन अधिक सिनेमा फ्लॅशबॅकसारखा दाखवण्याची फॅशन झालीये. हा पण त्याला अपवाद नाही… बालगन्धर्व, कट्यार, टिळक मधल्या एकसे एक भूमिकांनंतर सुबोध भावे आपल्याला इथे प्रमुख भूमिकेत दिसतो. एका टीव्ही मुलाखतीत
