India In A Day!!


“India in a day”Attended the screening of the film and realised there is so much happening in this country in just a day from emotions soaring high to falling low to realising it happens only in India,Where the lawmakers too don’t follow the law.

To realising each day is  a struggle.

To concluded that only the small things matter the most in India.

Bringing a smile on someone’s face to making one happy.

The concept of crowdfunding telling India’s to send a day in India and compiling them in a form of story was apt to get to showcase how really India is.

India as a country is so diverse from religion,Spirituality, Politics,Cinema to cricket and the cultural that’s it’s hard to believe this one country and not many other countries.

Kapoor & Sons  Since 1921

Kapoor and sons the melodramatic movie by Dharma production released on the 18th March.

A typical dharma movie dramatising a simple idea by showing each character to the fullest.A predictable story as it starts from the two sons coming back home to be with their grandfather who is terribly sick and who’s only wish is to have a family photo with the title kapoor and sons since 1921 before he dies.

The movie is character driven , showing the relationship of two brothers.Their conflicts,their similarities and their jealous attitude in sibling of the same gender.

The story was dragged after the interval with not much to show and tell.Shakun Batra’s second flick after ek main aur ek tu.Had high expectations from a cast like Rishi kapoor,Alia Bhatt,Siddharth Malhotra and debutant Fawad Khan ,had all the hype . Rishi kapoors performance and theatre artist like Rajat Kapoor and Ratna pathak’s  chemistry and  expression were well timed.But as far as the juniors go they overacted mostly.

The 140 minutes could be sliced to 120 minutes by making it less about the family photo.

The relationship between the mothers and sons were flawless.

Kapoor and sons since 1921 is like the comeback of the  dharma productions after a long while .

Room -Movie Review 


Room -Can anyone imagine staying in a room without having any access to the outside world or any human contact ,and the only source of entertainment is a television .

For 7 long years ? A story of about the lead actress played by briel Larson who has been kidnapped and kept in a single room with kitchen appliances,single bed ,pot,bath tub giving you a disgusting feeling of the torturous lifestyle she had to go through and how her son jack ,who is oblivious to the outside world and always question whether the people on television are real ?

On his 5th birthday,the lead actress believes jack has grown up and so starts planning to escape so first she tries telling the kidnapper he is sick ,but since he isn’t bothered and ignores her by saying he will try doing something tomorrow ,next day she plans to escape by convincing the kidnapper he is dead ,but he alone takes him away and the movie is all about how the kid manages to escape and tells the police what happens ,they manage to escape and the kid finds it hard to manage in the real world .

A very intense ,movie wrapped in less than 2hours with the lead doing an excellent job acting a role which was challenging and the kid too played the supporting very well .

A serious contender for the best academy film .

Wazir -Movie Review !! 

Wazir- A brave ATS officer (Farhan Akhtar) and a disabled grandmaster (Amitabh Bachchan) face a mysterious and dangerous opponent (Neil Nitin Mukesh).
The film Opens with Danish (Farhan Akthar)and Ruhi (Aditi Rao hydari) driving to the market in Delhi with their only child busy playing on the phone ,when Danish spots a car with a terror group and calls his co-team member and follows the terrorist while chasing the car and once they reach in site and start firing each other,Danish (Farhan Akthar ) realises his child is quite and bleeding,but as they reach the hospital she is declared dead Now the movie actually begins.The story begins moving in the first 15 minutes itself,and using the incident described earlier as a prologue for the story.Amitab Bachan the protagonist of the story is introduced just when you think about where is the game of chess coming? The Movie about just 103 minutes (1Hr43Min)moves fast enough for you to wonder what will happen next ? a thriller based on an Original Story by Vidhu Vinod Chopra,also the Producer of the movie gave an opportunity to Bejoy Nambiar the Director,who many thought debuted with Wazir,but in fact has made two movies earlier (Shaitan 2011) With kalki koechlin ,Rajit kapur and RajumarRao and (David 2013) both the movies which don’t really ring a bell in your mind .But Wazir making it difficult to predict the end was a thrilling movie ,based on a story of game of chess.

The background score builds the tension when needed in the movie ,most noticeable during the moments of argument between Neil Nitin Mukesh and Farhan Akthar and the moment when Farhan Akthar is chasing Amitab Bachan and trying to stop him going to the airport .

A lot of the movies these days are working on the background music and mostly working on a track that might become more popluar then the rest and “Atrangi Yaari” is one such song .This movie had to release 6 months ago ,but finally released in January this year and it was worth the wait .Wazir – Go ahead and watch this one.

The Girl on the train -Personal book review 


“The girl on the train “by Paula Hawkins is , what S J Watson terms as ‘gripping ,enthralling -A top notch thriller and a compulsive read ,no wonder dream works is in talks to adapt the book into a movie .

The sub head -You don’t know her .But she knows you .You immediately want to grab the book to know the story .The story about Rachel who catches the same commuter train every Morning.She know it will wait at the same signal each time ,overlooking a row of back gardens .She even started to feel like she knows the people who live in one of the houses .Jess Jason she calls them the characters on who the story revolves .Their life according to her is perfect.

And then one day she sees something shocking .Its only a minute until the train moves on .But it’s enough .

Now everything has changed .Now Rachel has a chance to become a part of their lives she’s only watched from far

Now they’ll see : her much more than just the girl on the train ….

The author Paula Hawkins who has worked as a journalist for fifteen years before turning her hand to fiction ,uses her journalism experience to continue the story and keep the interest of readers with some twist and turns ,there are moments you believe he might have done it ,no she has done it this continues till you haven’t read the complete story .the dairy format and narration format of giving each character his thought of the story to move forward is very interesting way of writing the book and to keep the interest going ,what the other characters think at that moment .

Grab and read the book ,before everybody has read it .
