My Thoughts on Ek Tha Tiger- Tiger Tiger Tiger… Kahani BLOCKBUSTER Hai… !!!!

5467 poster iphone Salman Khans Ek Tha Tiger is the most watched video on mobiles





Story- Story of the film is not a path breaking instead its very simple and straight forward. The best agent of a secret service falls in love with a girl and wants to run away from his spy life.
Execution- All praise should go to Kabir Khan for this. Story like ETT, though looks simple on a paper, is harder to execute in front of camera. The key part in a screenplay is always going to be the love story part and success of the screenplay going to be hinged upon the way Kabir blends love story in an action film. (And to be honest I was little skeptical about this part) But oh boy! Kabir has handled this key part extremely well.  Agent-meets-a girl-falls-in-love part is handled in an entertaining fashion and quite briefly without compromising the pace of the story.
Action Scenes- Mindblowing!!! Never seen before in a Hindi film. And on par with Hollywood films.  Pure treat for action lovers.
Music- Well, everybody knows about this as music is out for a month now. Film has 3 songs in a running time and mashallah song is shown with end credits. All 3 songs are quite well placed. On special note- Julies Packiam’s superb tiger theme plays in a background throughout the movie.
Performances- Supporting actors especially Ranvir, does a commendable job.
Katrina Kaif- She is a Beauty Goddess, divine beauty, sent on earth to kill men like us by her look. But this was expected since the mashallah song  teaser. But what surprised me is how much screen presence she’s got in an action scenes and how well she has performed the action sequences.
Salman Khan- What can I say about salman. I went to theater just to watch him. And he did not disappoint me. He is truly a tiger, THE TIGER.
Negatives- ummm.. It Ends? But on a serious note, if I dig up deep then I think Climax kinda ends abruptly. Make no mistake, Climax is awesome but end of it kinda seems abrupt.(at least to me.)
Box Office - Huge by any means. And if majority of audience is like me then Sky is the Limit...

The Legend Of THE WALL

This day I would never forget. Rahul Dravid is going to retire is what I was hearing, reading, seeing since yesterday. But I did not want to believe it. My mind was saying ‘yes! This is probably right’ but my heart just could not bear the possibility of not having Dravid around playing, fighting, winning and saving test matches for India. So I was eagerly waiting for today’s press conference, hoping against hope that this conference might be for some different reasons (though my brain couldn’t think of any). But that was not to be the case and Dravid indeed announced his retirement today. Retirement of Rahul Dravid has left a big, very big void in, not only team india but also in every cricket lovers life. I started following Cricket since 1996. And it is no surprise that Dravid made his debut in that year. I still remember that day, I, 7 years old then, watching a live match with all my friends on TV. The match was India Vs Pakistan at Sharjah. That day I first saw ...

My Thoughts on AGNEEPATH (2012)…

****Spoilers**** (Read only if you are the one who have watched the movie or you are the one who don’t mind if someone spoils your party. :D  ) If say, somehow I did not happen to know that this AGNEEPATH movie is actually a remake of old movie of 1980s, I would have guessed it perfectly right after the end of climax fight sequence. Such are the scenes in this movie that follow exact same path of old 1980s movies. Movie starts in a village ‘Mandawa’ showing Vijay’s (Hrithik Roshan) childhood life and his relation with his father and how main villain Kaancha (Sanjay Dutt) murders his father. This part is actually well executed and builds the platform for revenge perfectly. Then movie follows the regular path of how Vijay creates his presence in Mumbai mafia world with the help of Rauf Lala (Rishi Kapoor), who is apparently the arch enemy of Kaancha, and rise to the power with the only motive of seeking revenge against Kaancha. And blah blah blah…. Now fighting sequenc...

My Thoughts on THE AVENGERS

It is difficult to handle 2 lead characters in a movie,( just have a look at bollywood multi-starrers for example) so how can someone manage to assemble not two, not three, total six lead characters and that too Superheroes in a single movie and hope for success??? Director Joss Whedon not only manages but does it so brilliantly. ‘The Avengers’ starts with very unconventional way- at least for a superhero movie- with slow pace, building a plot brick by brick,  introducing all characters simplistic way. There is not much over-the-top action in first half(that’s being more than compensated in last half). What keeps audiences interested in first half is strong performance of leads (especially Robert D Junior), lots of humor, and anticipation of forthcoming events. ‘The Avengers’ starts justifying its superhero genre in last half, and till the end it becomes an-example-to-imitate for all future superhero movies. The biggest plus point of a movie is that it allots equal scree...
