Satyagraha is a Bollywood flick directed by Prakash Jha, starring Amitabh Bachchan, Ajay Devgn, Kareena Kapoor, Amrita Rao, Arjun Rampal and Manoj Bajpai. The movie revolves around two friends – Ajay Devgn and Indraneil Sengupta, who are very different from each other in terms of personalities. Indraneil is like his father who believes in working for the country and bringing in change in the political system of the nation where as Ajay Devgn is business minded and believes in making quick money. Amitabh Bachchan plays the role of Indraneil father and is a teacher who is very depressed with the indian political system & wants to do something for everyone in his gaon (village). Amrita Rao is Amitabh Bachchan’s daughter-in-law and Ajay Devgans sister-in-law. Arjun Rampal is just there for appearance, just like Amrita Rao and doesn’t have any major role to play.

The Bucket List is one of the very few movies that have an actual meaning in it. This movie is about two complete strangers who meet at a hospital. These two people are from two completely different backgrounds. Their names are Edward (Anthony Hopkins) and Ray (Morgan Freeman). Edward is very rich man and owns the hospital in which the two of them meet and Ray is a car mechanic. Both the men suffer from cancer; however Edward doesn’t have a family, who would visit him often. Whereas Ray, had a wife, three children and a grandchild as well. Rays wife Virginia often came to meet Ray and was upset with the news of him suffering from cancer. As the movie continues the duo i.e. Ray & Edward become friends and then very good friends. They prepare a list of things they want to do before they die. And they go ahead and do those things. The list includes1. Witness the most majestic thing in the world – The Himalayas
2. Help a total stranger for good
3. Kiss the most beautiful girl in the world
4. Roam around the world and lots of other things
Throughout the movie Edward is accompanied by his assistant who he calls Thomas or Tommy even though his name is Mathew. Thomas being the loyal assistant books tickets and does all arrangements for the duos to complete every task mentioned on the list. During their task completion process, it is unveiled that Edward has a daughter and he loves her a lot. However because she was upset with him, he never had the courage to talk to her. Ray tries to sort things out between the two but Edward gets furious and gives upon the things-to-do list and walks out. However, at the end of the movie its shown that Ray is on his death bed and three things are still left out, he asks Edward to do that and convinces him into talking to his daughter. He does that and finds out that he has a granddaughter, whom he kisses and cancels out the task which said “Kiss the most beautiful girl in the world”. And then the second last scene we see is that Edward cancels task no 2 in the list, which said “helping out a total stranger – Ray”. And then the last scene is of a man climbing the Himalaya, he is tommy who buries Edwards and ray ashes in a small container (different containers of course) with the list in between them. That’s again a wonderful scene in the movie. This movie surely inspires people to live every moment & enjoy every bit of it
