U, Me Aur Hum Bollywood Movie Reviews

One of Bollywood’s most well liked couple Kajol and Ajay Devgan are back to set the screen on fire in this touching story of love. The film sees Ajay Devgan take on a new avtaar as Director-cum-Actor in his directorial debut. The film is infact being directed and produced by Devgan under his banner Devgan Films’. The script is co-written by Robin Bhatt and Sutanu Gupta, apart from Devgan. Vishal Bharadwaj(of Omkara fame) provides the musical score for this evergreen romance.

The film is being promoted as an inclusive family social. Elements of humour, drama etc intermix freely in the storyline. The movie projects and encourages the institution of marriage and the concept of long-term relationships. In the words of the actor-director-producer, “I would rather call my film a romantic film which has a lot of drama and humor”. Considering some of Ajay Devgan’s most memorable performances have come in action and serious roles, it’s surprising that he chose a story which is primarily a romantic comedy for his maiden directorial venture. Nevertheless the film has attracted a lot of attention as it will be after a long time that cine goers will be able to catch the real life pair of Kajol and Ajay Devgan in action together.

The film is set on a cruise ship, as shown prominently on the promos. Ajay, played by Ajay Devgan, meets Pia, played by Kajol. She serves him drinks in that first encounter. He is a top rated psychiatrist, but this beautiful woman completely muddles his mind up and the toll she takes on him is far greater and taxing than that of the alcohol. This was true love in his book. Pia on her part was a woman of the heart, and could only watch as he made a total mess of the episode, and was pleased when he passed out. It took him two dozen drinks to utter the three magical words, “I love you”. A few lies here and there were thrown in to please the lady. The lady won over, it all seemed so idyllic and heavenly for this couple for the ages, till he confessed. And Pia isn’t amused; she leaves. The story is all about the emotions and times of this couple.

U, Me Aur Hum has attracted a lot of interest as its one of the few times when one sees a top line Bollywood actor don the director’s hat, even when in the prime of his acting career. Despite speculation that the film is based on the 2004 Hollywood romance, ‘Notebook’, the makers have denied any such similarity and have claimed their product is completely different. Kajol’s casting in a role that seems completely up her alley is another facet to look out for.

The film, set for an April 11 release, is one of the most exciting upcoming movies. The catchline of the movie says “The greatest journey covered is the distance between two people”. Let’s wait and watch if the film can successfully make the journey to the audience’s hearts.

Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi Bollywood Movie Reviews

Aditya chopra’s latest venture rab ne bana di Jodi is being eagerly awaited by millions. He is all set to be back in the limelight with this new promising project of his. He is putting on the director’s cap after 8 yrs. His last directorial venture was mohabbatein starring shahrukh khan. Aditya chopra will make his new movie rab ne bana di jodi under the banner of “yash raj films” this time. The viewers are definitely hoping a visual treat. His legendary first movie diwale dulhaniya le jayenge has still not been forgotten by anyone. It created a record breaking history in bollywood. This movie again has shahrukh in it, which surely will be a major publicity factor for it. The combination of aditya chopra and shahrukh khan has proven to be a hit in the past.

As already mentioned shahrukh khan is the main hero of the movie. The female counterpart is yet to be finalized. The leading lady opposite to shahrukh will be a fresh new face. The search has already started for the new face who can fit the role in a perfect manner. It surely will be a dream debut for that lucky girl to be acting with aditya chopra and shahrukh khan together in one film. Aditya chopra will also be writing the script for this movie along with direction. The shooting of the movie will believed to commence from may 2008. aditya chopra is planning to rope in salim-sulaiman for the music of this movie. Salim- sulaiman have created good music in the past.

We can enjoy this movie mostly by the end of 2008, which is when it is expected to release. This is a good time for the release of the movie because of the holiday season for many of us.Aditya chopra had by choice taken this 8 year long break from direction. He was certainly not wasting time or talent doing nothing. He had been engaged in setting up the first studio model in India, which definitely would take “yash raj films” places. Simultaneously he was also busy with a lot of production activities. The movies which were produced under him over the recent past are hum tum, fanaa, salam namaste to name a few. He was the creative director of these movies. Along with all this he also had written many scripts in movies like veer zaara which was yash chopra’s directorial project. We surely are hoping for another record breaking movie just like dilwale dulahaniya le jayenge which still is been shown in theatres in Mumbai. The duo shahrukh khan and aditya chopra are all set to create magic once again.

Chamku Bollywood Movie Review

Maybe sometime back, Deol’s used to be hardly non-existent in the Hindi Film Industry. Now a day, one is sure to encounter them boasting the really bonded family of theirs. A starry line up with the likes of Dharmender and Sunny Deol, the family is sure to catch an eye. The intensions were made clear with ‘Apne’, whereby Deol’s proved it through their hard hitting, no nuisance manner, that they meant business. The flick received satisfactory responses, taking into consideration the degree to which the youth today is being dragged towards Hollywood.

Post-Apne, their first home production ‘Chamku’ is lined up for release this October. With an attractive star caste in the form of Bobby Deol, Arshad warsi as well as Priyanka Chopra, the film has started making some news. Decorated with catchy tag line ‘Kahani kabhie khatam nahin Hoti’, the flick is sure to turn some heads. Directed by kabeer kaushik, one can expect something realistic of some logistic values in the movie.

The film revolves around the central character ‘Chamku’, a Bihari who migrates to Mumbai for reasons of immaterial values. The story then turns into a narrative, dealing primarily with the life of a Bihari in Mahrashtra. The very thought is enough to raise some eyebrows. Well, for those pondering over the issue whether the story is attributed to the tyranny of the non-locals in Mumbai, keep pondering, as Bobby Deol in a recent interview, by leaving questions unanswered, opene doors for one’s imagination to come into play. A very smart marketing move one must say!

Personally for Bobby, past one year has not turned up rich dividends. With the failure of ‘Jhoom Barabar Jhoom’ and average responses to ‘Apne’, the lanky Deol has something to think about. This, however, should not stop him from being optimistic as ‘Chamku’, stars Priyanka Chopra with Bobby for the fthird time, with, ‘Barsat’ and ‘Kismat’ being the former. Accrding to the rumors, the duo are looking refreshingly good. With a diva like Priyanka in the whereabouts, one should not expect anything less. Apart from ‘Chamku’, Bobby would be seen in ‘Ek’ and ‘Roshan’, which are also lined up for release latter this year.

The music for ‘Chamku’ is composed by Monty of ‘Saawariya’ fame, who last year won hearts of millions with music like a breath of fresh air. Lyrics by Sameer, who once again has been noticed as writing for Bobby’s movies, usually complements the great music by Monty.

Sources reveal that, Danny Denzongpa, will also be joining the team to shoot for five days at film city latter this month. He play ‘baba’, a devotee, who in the movie resurrects boby from the shackles of insecurity. With such a power pact script, a brilliant director, refreshing music and gorgeous caste, Vijeta production is all set for a second innings!

Roadside Romeo Bollywood Movie Reviews

How much does it normally take to amuse and absorb viewers across the nation for so long?What makes it possible for them to be acclaimed all across the country and the world as India’s pre- prominent movie mansion with an unmatched box office record and an unrivalled commitment to famous cinema? Firstly, it takes incredible and unconventional stories. For instance, the five eccentric stories which are unique in every sense and that form the very base for YRF’s (Yash raj film) releases this year.

Firstly, it is “Tashan”, all set to hit the screens on 25th of April, which is being directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya, the scriptwriter of the blockbuster movies Dhoom:2” and “Dhoom”. It is also his first movie as a director.If you have ever thought, only western movies could coalesce style with stuff, well then its time for you to think yet again: so can “Tashan” – the good luck, the ishtyle , the pharmoola!. Next on the list will be storyteller Kunal Kohli’s venture starring Saif and Rani Mukerji. Romance, drama, fantasy, and more – all that you would ever want in a movie is there in the script of this movie, which is yet to be titled. Yash Raj production house will also invite the nation to celebrate and rejoice the fresh new tale of “Bachna Ae Haseeno”, the third movie of the director, Siddharth Anand, which is all set to release on august 15th.

People often wonder why is YRF considered to be so prominent and why there movies are so eagerly awaited. One of the reasons would certainly be their uncanny knack to experiment and try out different formulas. This year on 24th October one is likely to witness a new episode in Yash Raj Films’ ever escalating strides. It will by all probabilities mark the release of its first full length animated movies which is a joint venture of the Studio together with Walt Disney, apparently the best in animation.

Roadside Romeo is a forthcoming animated movie that would have Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan lending their voices to animated individuals for the first time. Saif is lending his voice to a blemished brat of a street dog named ‘Romeo’. “Roadside Romeo” twirls the story of a cool, rich, street dog who apparently is abandoned or in other words deserted on the lanes and at the present needs to confront with problems which he has by no means faced previously. It also features the voice of javed akhtar and all the technology work is done exclusively in India. Movie is directed and written by another promising talent Jugal Hansraj. This venture along with Walt Disney Pictures is expected to leave film followers of all ages entertained and animated like never before. “Roadside Romeo” certainly seems set to become a landmark.
