The script is forced into being a vehicle for its star, not the story, so what you get is an overlong Akshayrama, which perks up only in fits and starts.

And then you walk into Bad Luck Govind, and wonder if anything’s ever going to change.
The President Is Coming

Saturday , 10 January '09

The President Is Coming kickstarts the year with exactly the sort of lift we’ve been looking for — it’s free-spirited, irreverent, and funny.

This flick about a penniless fellow from Delhi who lands in Mumbai looking for a job, looks like one of Ram Gopal Varma's left-over films.

Jumbo is a lovable bite-sized pachyderm, looking for his lost father.

How do you count eight packs? The question plagues you when you first come at Aamir Khan in his new movie.

The term superstar was coined for Rajesh Khanna. Everyone else, before him, was merely a star.
Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi

Love is a yellow tiffin box stuffed with garma garam khana, balanced between the knees of that scooter-rider going down a small-town road...
Meerabai Not Out

Meera Achrekar, bespectacled Maths teacher, loves cricket. And Anil Kumble. More than numbers.
Maharathi

Saturday , 6 December '08

Based on Paresh Rawal’s play of the same name, Maharathi presents a howdunnit: there’s a body in the deep freeze, and we all know the manner in which it ended up there, but the cops don’t.
Dil Kabaddi

Spanking. Whips. Masks. The only thing missing is handcuffs. Or maybe they got shoved under the jumble of sheets on the bed, during the strenuous activity thereon?

MIRRORS

Always thought there was an evil design behind all those giant mirrors at clothes stores. After all, how many have escaped their magic, whether one thought the view was extremely flattering or deceptively bad?
La Graine et Le Mulet

When a director starts repeating himself, warning bells start ringing. They’ve been tolling for Subhash Ghai for sometime now: his last big-budget historical extravaganza, Kisna tanked; so did his smaller, more intimate, more contemporary making-of-a-terrorist tale Black and White.
