Dum Maaro Dum – Review

By Anurag.
Directed by: Rohan Sippy
Produced by: Ramesh Sippy
Starring: Abhishek Bachchan, Bipasha Basu, Rana Daggubati, Prateik Babbar, Aditya Pancholi, Monty Munford.
Music by: Pritam Chakraborty
Cinematography: Amit Roy
Editing by: Aarif Shaik
Distributed by: Fox Star Studios, Ramesh Sippy Entertainment
Grade: C: Ek Baar Chalta Hai
Rohan Sippy’s Dum Maaro Dum is a slick action-crime thriller, that revolves around six Indians who meet in Goa and how their lives change forever, once they find themselves caught up with the drug menace.
ACP Vishnu Kamath (Abhishek Bachchan) is assigned by the Chief Minister of Goa to exterminate the drug mafia, which was spreading like a plague. Mercy (Muzammil S. Qureshi) and Rane (Govind Namdeo), his two assistants, assist him in carrying out his assignments of catching Lorsa Biscuita aka Biscuit (Aditya Pancholi), who is the main drug dealer in that area.
Laurie (Prateik Babbar) is a young simpleton, who falls prey into the drug web, after getting caught red handed, smuggling cocaine from the country. Joki (Rana Daggubati), Laurie’s well wisher, pleads of Laurie’s innocence to the ACP, trying to make him realize that Laurie was a mere pawn.
Zoe (Bipasha Basu), Joki’s chick, was caught in the same drug web five years ago, that Laurie was in now. It was Biscuita who came to her rescue by using his influence to get her out. But, in return, he made Zoe his girlfriend despite being married. Hence, Joki’s concern for Laurie.
The story further unfurls itself with the ACP realizing that the drug racket was actually not carried out by Biscuita but by an invisible man named Michael Barbusa, who uses various aliases to operate from different cities.
The story comes to its climax with ACP completing the given task of busting the drug racket along with Joki and Laurie.
The narration and the dialogues, make the flick worth watching. The director did a splendid job by keeping the suspense alive till the end. The unexpected twists thrown in the end worked wonders for the production. While the first half showed some movement in the theater, the second made sure the audiences were glued to their seats.
Abhishek Bachchan did an amazing job as a tough cop. The only thing that played against his cop stature was his pot belly and double chin. :(
Rana Daggubati was dull initially, but played the climax spectacularly. Prateik Babbar portrayed his innocence, brilliantly.
Bipasha Basu was naturally good.
Pritam Chakraborty did an awesome job on the music, Amit Roy’s cinematography was appealing, Aarif Shaik’s editing is the biggest plus point. Deepika Padukone’s raunchy item number adds glamour to the entire movie.
Final word: An adrenaline pumped thriller, not best suited for the romantic ones.

Ajay v/s Akki or SRK v/s Farah: It is payback time

Ajay v/s Akki or SRK v/s Farah: It is payback timeThe real reason why Ajay Devgn is pitting his Toonpur Ka Superhero against Akshay Kumar's Tees Maar Khan

Ajay Devgn's sudden decision to release his film Toonpur Ka Superhero with Farah Khan's Tees Maar Khan on December 24 is being attributed to the doings of Shah Rukh Khan. But the real reason has lots to do with TMK's hero Akshay Kumar!

B-Town's latest war (which will get even bigger in the coming weeks) is between Devgn and the Khiladi. Insiders say the two stars, of late, have been running each other down due to the recent box-office clashes of their projects.

Guzaarish : Movie Review



Story: They called him Merlin and anointed him the best magician. But Ethan Mascarenhas (Hrithik Roshan) has very little magic left in his life after a near-fatal accident that leaves him paralysed and confined to bed for life. Can the life-loving Ethan live out the rest of his life as a quadriplegic or has he a right to end the pain and opt for euthanasia (mercy killing)? While his best friend and lawyer Devyani (Shernaz Patel) is ready to fight his case, his devoted nurse Sophie (Aishwarya Rai) can't foresee a life without her beloved patient and is in a dilemma. Will she let go?

Movie Review: Guzaarish is an unusual film in many respects. Firstly, because it follows a film craft that is akin to pure art. Film maker, Sanjay Leela Bhansali and his cinematographer (Sudeep Chatterjee) have created a collage of riveting paintings on screen, where both the interiors of a crumbling mansion and the outsides of an incandescent Goa landscape literally transport you to an art gallery. The exquisite detailing of Aishwarya's daily chores as she brushes her patient's teeth, shampoos his hair, scratches his nose, cleans his bed sores or simply draws the blinds to keep the sunlight out is mesmerising to watch, even as their rare outdoor soirees blind you with their exuberance. Catch Hrithik and Aishwarya enjoying a drive down the uninhibited Goan countryside and you can actually feel the breeze rustle through your hair....



But more unusual is the spirit of the film which supposedly articulates a plea for death but ends up serenading life and love with tenderness and restraint. Ethan may be plagued by his immobility and languishing body, but his eyes dance like a dervish. Despite his desire to die with dignity, there is a liveliness that surrounds him as he interacts with the few people around him: his student, the wanabe magician Omar (Aditya Roy Kapur), his lawyer friend, Devyani (Shernaz Patel), his die hard doctor (Suhel Seth), his mother (Nafisa Ali) and most importantly, his nurse, Sophie (Aishwarya Rai). Even the few flashbacks that the film features showcase him as an ardent lover and an adorable kid, who performs his first magic trick before his mother. Yes, death does hang around like a shroud, but life bristles and bursts through every frame of Guzaarish.

Then again, the film is one of the most unusual love stories of recent times. The relationship between Ethan and Sophie is much more than a patient-nurse bond and brims over with a passion that threatens to burst any moment. So what if almost everything is left unsaid between the two. The eyes -- and expressions -- say it all. Kudos to Hrithik and Aishwarya to create some of the most romantic moments on screen without resorting to cliche and stereotype.

The performances are uniformly good, with the ensemble cast, specially Shernaz Patel, providing great support to the lead actors. But in the end, it is Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai who leave an indelible impression with their interpretation of two extremely difficult and unconventional characters who do not have the usual props to express grief, joy, pain and passion. If Hrithik uses his eyes as his be-all and end-all, then Aishwarya is a stunning picture of fire and grace, walking away with certain scenes by her sheer vitality. Catch her outburst in the courtroom and her impromptu jig in the restaurant to understand how underutilised she has been in run-of-the-mill cinema. Equally noteworthy is the music score where Sanjay Leela Bhansali debuts as a music director.

A film like Guzaarish isn't made for the box office. It's made for the gratification of the senses. And that it does, in ample measure.

Deepika Padukone gets proposed

It wasn't the perfect setting for a romantic proposal, but a young Delhi boy dared to pop the question to actress Deepika Padukone when she came to a mall here Tuesday to promote her film Lafangey Parindey.
The youth went down on his knees, looked at the B-town's beauty and asked: "Will you marry me?"
Deepika, who was accompanied by her co-star Neil Nitin Mukesh, seemed baffled by the sudden, unexpected proposal. But she was quick to respond.
"I am not ready for marriage yet," replied Deepika, who looked lovely in a sari.
But the youth wasn't willing to give up so easily.
"But I am ready for you," he said.
Deepika, who is rumoured to be dating liquor baron Vijay Mallya's son Siddharth, brushed the whole incident with a laugh

Kangna asked to flaunt Paris Hilton's fashion...

Stars seem to be aligning exceptionally favourably for Bollywood actress Kangna Ranaut these days, as one hears she's been approached to play the Asian brand ambassador for hotel heiress Paris Hilton's fashion line.

Still riding the success of her latest movie ONCE UPON A TIME IN MUMBAAI and soon to star opposite Salman Khan for his first home production, Kangna has reportedly been offered a 'staggering' amount to endorse Paris's clothing line.

Paris launched her own fashion lineup in 2007 at a boutique in Los Angeles and was an instant hit among those who admire her taste.

Back then, she said the line, which included shoes, T-shirts and jeans, was "just from my closet to their closets" but apparently it has done so well it is seeking international markets

Dev Anand to remake ‘Hare Rama Hare Krishna’

devanand
Bollywood’s evergreen actor Dev Anand said that he was going to remake his 1971 hit ‘Hare Rama Hare Krishna’ very soon.
“I will make another version of ‘Hare Rama Hare Krishna’ in Nepal very soon. The script is ready. People want another ‘Hare Rama Hare Krishna’ I know that,” Dev Anand told reporters at the first look of his directorial venture ‘Chargesheet’ at the JW Marriott hotel in Mumbai.

“If people can make remakes, make biopics, why can’t there be a remake of this film… The film will be made keeping in perspective the present generation,” the actor said, adding that his film was about drugs and hippies and the former was still a factor.
The legendary filmmaker was not disheartened in spite of his last few directorial ventures ‘Censor’ (2001), ‘Love at Times Square’ (2003) and ‘Mr Prime Minister’ (2005) sank at the box office without a trace.
Dev Anand also spoke of his classic ‘Hum Dono’, which is being released in a colour version.
“The film ‘Hum Dono’ has been coloured and it will be out very soon. It looks fantastic, as if it has been shot in colour.”
Man! This 86 years young actor is full of life!!!

How Sonam saved herself from a wardrobe malfunction?

sonammalfunction1
Sonam Kapoor makes a style statement everywhere she goes. She is known to dress in outfits from elite brands. But this time, this suave damsel picked up wrong pants for the promotion of her movie Aisha.

The entire gang of Aisha, including Sonam, Cyrus Sahukar, Ira Dubey and Amrita Puri were present at the radio station 98.3 FM Radio Mirchi having fun while interacting with their fans. They even got up to dance. That’s when what Sonam had a wardrobe malfunction.
Her pants kept slipping down and poor Sonam had to use her hands to keep the pants in place. May be the trousers were loose or perhaps the top button came off. Sonam then stepped back and her assistant quickly did the needful with the trousers.
Apparently, a safety pin was used to tighten the pants and Sonam heaved a sigh of relief at being saved from a wardrobe malfunction.
Thank God!!! :)

Dabangg shows Salman with stylish new moves

salman_dance
Not everyone swears by Salman Khan’s dancing skills, and Shabina Khan Ansari, the choreographer for Salman in the upcoming movie Dabangg, indeed had a task cut out for herself while filming the songs composed by Sajid-Wajid.

According to Shabina Khan, “Salman surrenders to the vision of a choreographer, but also gives a lot of his own inputs. Not just that, Salman always does the dance steps in his own unique style.”
“This is not the first time I am working with Salman. I’ve worked with him even earlier when I used to be an assistant with Ganesh Acharya. But now he has changed; today he is technically stronger. He also gives his inputs for steps,” Shabina Khan Ansari said.
Ansari has choreographed two songs in the film, a romantic track and a hardcore dance number. She gave Salman steps suiting his character.
“I created steps for Salman keeping in mind his character and image. He is playing a cop in the film, so I didn’t want his moves to be professional like a dancer’s. He plays a straightforward person in the film; we kept all that in mind,” said the choreographer.
Directed by Abhinav Kashyap, ‘Dabangg’ introduces Sonakshi Sinha opposite Salman. The movie has been produced by Arbaaz Khan.

sharukh_aamir
Bollywood’s two leading Khans were spotted at the Japanese restaurant Hakkasan, in London, dining together on Friday night. Aamir Khan, Shahrukh Khan, Karan Johar and Gauri Khan were seen laughing and joking over sushi and sashimi. Aamir Khan had invited Karan, SRK and Gauri for dinner and that’s how the Khan’s ended up on the same table.
Shahrukh was in London busy shooting for his sci-fi thriller Ra.One, while Aamir was there to promote his upcoming home production Peepli [Live]. Amir had reportedly invited SRK and Karan Johar for a special screening of his flick. Unfortunately, only Karan could make it, as Srk was busy shoot.
Well, i’m sure they had a great time. :)
