Satyagraha - A multi-starrer movie with a bad plot

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. Kareena is a journalist who falls in love with Ajay Devgn eventually. The funny part is, in between all the hush h...

Dhanush – From Kolaveri Di to Raanjhanaa

Raanjhnaa is a sweet love story between a boy and a girl that begins during their childhood and ends when they are 20-something, with the actor’s death. Both the actors Dhanush and Abhay Deol die in the movie sacrificing their lives for a girl named Zoya- played by Sonam. Dhanush clearly steals the show by his amazing acting skills and simplicity. Dhanush cannot be judged on looks at all. However his expressions and dialogue delivery is too good. His Friend Murari – played by Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub was given very good dialogues, which he has proved that he was worth delivering. Bindiya – played by Swara Bhaskar is a girl who is as crazily in love with Dhanush as he is with Zoya. Swara Bhaskar has again proved her acting skills in this movie after Tanu Weds Manu. She has chosen strong supporting roles in both the movies and has performed well. Her dialogue delivery is very crisp and clear.  Abhay Deol has a very brief role in the movie which fades away with his death, although he...

Fukrey (2013)

I don’t understand why would Farhan Akhtar produce such a movie? I would rate the movie 3/ 10. It made no sense. The movie stars Pulkit Sharma, Manjot Singh, Varun Sharma, Ali Faizal, Richa Chadda, Vishakha Singh and Priya Anand. The movie begins with Pulkit Sharma and Varun Sharma talking some non-sense about college girls and their dream of entering college as they have been failures throughout their lives; right from failing in 1 st Std. Next scene is about Manjot Singh praying and wanting the same thing, entering college just because his so-called girlfriend studies in that college, who apparently is cheating on him. The third guy, Ali Faizal is some wandered who keeps on wandering around the college campus like some nomad. By the way nobody is allowed within the college campus but this guy Ali Faizal is allowed, nobody knows why and how. Then there is Bholi Punjaban, Richa Chadda, who is a an amazingly audacious chiq wanting to kill the world for money. Pulkit is a super s...
