Movies.Are you a movie fanatic? Get the first tickets to the first show whenever there’s a new movie in town? You a student? Then you are surely the one waiting to get the tickets on a Sat and Sunday morning show in Jai Nepal. Why? Because they give a student’s discount then, Duh! And most importantly if you are a Nat Col student that is the closest cinema hall to college. Gopi Krishna is Rs 25 cheaper but we have college in the morning so that leaves Jai Nepal, which is closely as the only viable option. Anyways going to watch a movie on a Sat or Sunday morn would mean bunking Public Finance or Conflict Management classes.

Dhoom 2
Dhoom 2 was released last Friday. I wanted to see this movie real badly.But with a shoestring budget which is Rs 0.36 balance on the cell phone, Rs 100 burrowed from Asish and having donated some quarter a million to the college ( damn costly yaar, private colleges are the broad daylight looters for sure!) as Fees imagine my extravagant lifestyle! Don’t even talk of my Converse, which is torn but am so in love with it that I can’t just let go. Conspicuous as it is I saw no way I could materialize Dhoom 2 into reality. Thank heavens was paid Rs 1000 for something I wrote, which revived all my movie instincts! hehehe But hey, a fren bought the ticket, so am still the Heavily Indebted Poor Student !! ohho yo tannam hari jindagi, kahile tanna paisa kamaune yaar, yo bikase karyakarta bhayera ta don’t see the slightest chance too…Je hos I watched the Movie!!
The first time, I ever watched a movie before any of my friends got a chance to zoom off to cinema halls in “definately male” pulsar bikes! Yahoooooo
My reason for wanting to watch the movie were the “Khatra Bikes and Ghatak Men” FOR SURE!! Its once in a blue moon affair when I want to see a Bollywood movie. But am not the kind who watches all Hollywood releases either. I love to watch movies on TV, strictly alone, or with my sister at home. Basically enjoy whatever they show in Star movies, Cinemax and HBO. Hindi movies mostly overdo everything, like it sometimes but mostly enjoy listening to the songs rather. Moreover the “Always love” theme is the biggest disappointment. Maybe relationships make a good storyline but I can no more bear ‘dancing around trees’ and triangular love stories. With over 800 film releases annually I recommend the bollywood filmmakers to take a next step and delve into complexities of relationships rather. Something more closer to life like “Love actually”, interesting like ” Harry Met Sally” ( A dialogue from this movie which is simply awesome: ” When you have found the one you want to spend the rest of your life with, you want the rest of your life to start from now”) or different like “An Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind” ( my favorite movie). I thoroughly enjoy Action movies too but no Sci-fi please, (can’t even bear to hear of Star Wars) . But bollywood and action sequences are a misfit. Hoped it differed in Dhoom 2 but saw no difference.
Now let me talk of the most talked about movie in town these days “Dhoom 2″. The star cast I would say is the magnetic factor, which automatically draws the audience to the theatres: Hritik Roshan, Abhishek Bacchan, Aishwarya Rai, Vipasa Vasu and Uday Chopra. Couldn’t stand Uday Chopra in the Dhoom 1. Felt like he was there just because his father was behind the movie making and all. Most girls find him cute nevertheless. However his entry was great in this one. An yellow bike, zooms out of nowhere to land on a boat, Uday Chopra the rider wears a shirt (the same color as his bike), a scarf tied on his head, and muscular arms. He does it well. But the background music whenever Uday comes across any hot-gal i.e Vips here is just disgusting. Watch the movie and find out.

The No nonsense guy
Abhishek enters, on a motorboat or whatever they are called. Hmmm he lacks style. He looks too tall and seems to be bending lower than necessary. A bearded face, tall physique, Jai Dixit, the officer. He’s fine for the role. Looks like a guy next door and whatever he does the “Abhishek Bachhan the sensitive and sensible” guy image can’t be wiped off. Is there anyone who doesn’t love this guy? I wonder. His interviews are great, he is humorous and just the kind we girls would call ” a guy in touch with his emotional side” too. He is the complete package! I like him as a person, hahah as if I know him.
But its Hritik who is the X-factor of the movie. The eye catcher, the man to look forward too.Check him out girls. That’s Hritik aka Aryan the Man. My favorite look of Hritik is the first time he is shown walking on the streets of Mumbai. A blue eye-gear, light blue shirt, something like “galbandi” around the neck and exposed chest. And Man, what confidence, what attitude, what gait! Simply mind blowing! Under normal circumstances one thing I just hate in guys is them exposing their chesters(I am confused if its called that, whatever), supposed to be a symbol of masculinity but Ugh makes me want to literally throw up! Thankfully its winter now but I just don’t understand guys who wear those extra-neck and chest revealing v-neck Thamel t-shirts in summer. First it’s too flimsy, second men don’t have nice necks! Ek ta khamba jasto thick neck, tesmathi tyo exposure! Gawd! The only person who looks fine with that is Saif Ali in Dil Chahata hai. (Well have watched the movie innumerous times, can even tell you the scene but won’t! hehehe)
Forget the rest, Hritik looks too good to complain. His presence in the screen is imposing. He even overshadows Ash the Heartthrob of men all over the world (not to forget some blogstars in town) hahaha. Hritik is the steals the show with his magic. He acts, he dances and he Rocks. Don’t you find his dance simply unbelievable? I mean how can someone be sooo flexible…. Was left speechless. Every scene flaunts his look. I loved the way he looks on the basketball court with Ash. It was an interesting scene so let me do some detailing here.

Wow! Some Game, Some Look!
Its raining. Ash the hot gal is clad in the shortest shirt ever; Hritik oviously looks overdressed in front of her.

The Game’s Just Begun!
Hritik asks” Hey, are you like checking me out?” Some dialogue I must say.The game starts. H keeps scoring one after another. Darlin Ash should have practiced dribbling at least because her handling the basketball clearly exposes the drawback. What an isult to us women, I mean come on Miss World should be unbeatable. The director’s fault I would say on capitalizing on the general assumption of “gals can’t play” thing…. I expected a more competitive game, so was disappointed. And the raining environemt is again the typical Bollywood style of casting stars. A basketball game on a rainy night. Dejavu??

You surely know her! Ash the Beauty!
Ash, as usual isn’t much of an actress. The only film I feel she has really acted as in real acting is in ” Devdas”. She’s Beautiful though, the world knows that ( kati repeat garnu?) I thought Vips fared better in her role as a police officer. She’s HOT. …. what else?

Hot Gal
Ah..the great kissing scene. Kiss and bollywood films. Interesting combination don’t you think? Hahaha I liked it better as in the old hindi films when the camera would capture the flowers and bees whenever the stars got overwhelmed with desire.lol.I think the bollywood folks should let the Westeners promote their “suffocating kiss” scenes. ( I wonder why I never hear of kiss of death! m sure a lot of diseases get transferred that way!) Garepachi pro lai nai garna dinu ni or else gardai nagarnu. Ash and Hritik break all bollywood boundaries by venturing into that territory. I wasn’t really focusing on the scene as I was teasing a friend of mine ” Ok dear, don’t turn green with jealousy”.

Hritik and Ash..Sizzling pair
In a nutshell: Muzic is good, not good as the first one ( Dhoom 1 though), plenty of skin show( good for guys), Hritik is hot as ever. Its all about Men, Money and Machines!
So you’ll have fun. A great time pass.
What more can I ask for when I still get to see fast bikes and kool dudes amidst a mountain of assignments, hoina ta??
So your reading this very entry reveals the fact that you have more time to have fun than me. What are you waiting for? Go watch the movie. Don’t be late..or else the only tickets you’ll get will be the front stall!! Hurry. N Have Fun!!



The last picture is in contrast with what I saw and read today in Kantipur newspaper. The news said Ash and Abhishek went to Baranashi to worship the god in a famous temple out there and speculations are rife that they will be marrying soon. I think that couple would be more sizzling than the one shown in the picture above. Didn’t you find a photo of Abhi and Ash together? Just curious.
Gre8 review, good (if not quality) movie goer. You sure will put some self-proclaimed Indian movie critics to shame. Keep it up!
PS: But, am not sure whether to watch this movie or not coz I already missed a good company ( not RGV’s company) in you. LOL

Well! I went to watch the movies because of the four star rating in media but have to say found it hard to digest at all. Not a real movie lover of that type, thus I felt like I wasted my time.
For action and flesh and dances, the film may hold some meaning but for other things, it’s not good.
your report scene by scene was as good as watching the movie itself, you might as well ask for money.
hitrik dancing well?…. his gyrating moves remind me of wiggling worm on the parched ground.
since india is going global, it makes sense to take their commodities global as well, thus makes sense to have more gore and skin. moreover the targeted crowd of bollywood movies have now access to other movies– hollywood, inexpensive. so, mumbai, industry feel the heat of the competition, since they are running their movies these days are simultaneously in many continents.
but you are correct in saying, they should let the West do what they do best– sex/action.
hindi movies are not technically as competent as the Western movies, and their false sense of morality won’t let them push the envelop any further in ‘sex and nudity.’
so movies like ‘dhooms’ are just a lame pretense to pander to the mass—going global in dhoti style.
Please do not watch dhoom 2. It is a total waste of time and money. It is actually too depressing.
It seems lots of you didnt like the film. I have not watched it yet but it i guess due to its star cast . its should be watched at least once.
Dhoom’s creating waves in the box office. India seems to be “fidaa” on Hrithik. As per reports (unauthorized ones though star news and aaj tak were the ones in the act) Hrithik is the only thing that rocks. Ash is too thin, junior B seems weird in his role and Uday and Bips (Do they have any roles?)
But what can be expected from a multi starrer Bollywood flick. Opps! King Khan prefers “Indian Film Industry” . Riding fast bikes, ogling at girls and wearing branded clothing do not make “GOOD MOVIES”. Every good movie is not a hit and every hit not a good movie. Still there’s is no harm in enjoying some hours watching beauties and hunks entertaining themselves and you through some baseless plot. Hope you have a great RIDE………….
p.s: I haven’t seen the movie yet.
for ur information i havent watched that movie but have heard a lot of it and feeling like i have watched it 100 of times. ani i think bipasa is this time looking more hot then ash and it might again be something that cannot be easily digested as there r lots of so called fans of ahs. and if u were there to watch with u guy then i dont have any comments s it is obvious to like that movie as u constatly try to compare ur guy with hritik. am i right. ani i u would have watched that movie with ur frens then u would be able to jugde that movie better. dont mind plz
“and if u were there to watch with u guy then i dont have any comments s it is obvious to like that movie as u constatly try to compare ur guy with hritik”
Not something I could make head or tail of for sure.. its a waste of money I agree Janu. but fun to watch the larger than life,( each scene) thing..though the movie is not sequential in the events or anythhing…expectin a great hindi movie is too farfetched a dream for sure..action pani napachnekhalko cha..helicopters chasing a guy on skates.still unable to catch the thief, twake mumbai police commanding the ones in Brazil.( nabhako Indianization)..and all that.. but had fun in the sense that was a damn hectic week so anything for a bit of visual pleasure…
heheh
looking forward for the release of “THe Departed” and Casino Royale in Ktm for sure..anyone want to watch it with me
ALready watched both the departed an casino royal. departed, based on boston, has the usual landmarks, theough the bostonian accent is a little exaggerated but the movie itself is great. casino royal, a down to earth bond movie (if anything like that can exist)
Don’t know what element in ur comment made it a spam…but found it nevertheless just in time.
“Gre8 review, good (if not quality) movie goer”
LOL Movie review??? this is an insult to anything called review I would say. Merely guffin as usual.
“if not quality) movie goer”
you barely know anything of my movie watching habits to jump into that conclusion, that’s the last thing one can say for sure on grounds of this ENTRY !
“not RGV’s company”
I couldn’t get what RGV is though wondering if you meant RDB?
and dear “don’t say anything”, the name resembles but I don’t jump into conclusions. So the IP adress was a HUGE help in this matter.
“as u constatly try to compare ur guy with hritik.am i right”
No you are wrong again.The element of “the guy” in your comment hahaha ( tara tyo bisesh gari timile sochnu obvious nai ho).timro kura le ta malai pheri repeat garna man lagyo ” Majak Cha Jindagi”.. don’t mind your saying that but a word of clarification, have no guy to compare with Hritik for that matter ani bhaye pani ma Michael Vartan sanga compare garthen for sure!
ani maile blog gareko bhar ma malai chinchu bhanne bram ma pattakai naparnu, and if any girl goes out to a movie with a guy ( could be anybody. the entire women race for that matter) doesn’t necessarily mean her ability to judge the movie is lessened. A went out with my fren too!!!
Forgeting and judging the movie on any grounds of a what makes a “good film” I enjoyed watching it. Wanna watch a good movie, then stay back home HBO was airing ” A million dollar baby” one of the best movies ever..repeat garcha hola. And why discuss the ovious Hindi films aren’t the Best in the world ( we all know that)but aba Dhoom 2 discussion overdose bhayo FOR SURE!
thanks Mr Twaaks for telling a bit of The Departed and Casino Royale
that was exactly wht this blog required. Something beyong Dhoom 2.. bekkar ma entry rakhen jasto bhairacha… whtever. am waiting to see what difference Daniel Craig has made.. haha though haven’t seen any Pierce Brosnan Bond Movie for that matter! Matt Damon ra Jack Nicholson kai lagi bhayeni will watch “Departed” chahin.
I’d recommend that you also watch another movie called “The Prestige” with Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale.
About Bond, I suppose you’ll make up your own mind, but here are my two cents worth. With Dan Craig the moviemakers have definately changed the whole Bond franchise. Previously all Bond movies would follow a simple formula, there’d be a maniac set to destroy the world and Bond would be hot on his trails, along the way he’d have a Vodka Martini, shaken not stirred, he’d have these nifty gadgets from the Q branch, a georgous car, and with the help of a “Bond Girl” he’d stop the maniac. Not that ther’s no maniac and “Bond Girl” in this movie, but they are atypical, and that’s freash to watch. Also I loved the answer that Dan Craig gives to Vodka Martini and on top of that he drives a Ford (Bond with a Ford, who’d have thunk? But then again he drives a three wheeler Tempo in Octopussy). Another thing, this guy is more physical, with a well chiseled body to die for. But having said that, Dan Craig seems to me more like a “blue collar” Bond rather than all previous actors who’ve potrayed him as this suave and sophisticated “white collar” guy, who’d stab you in the back with a smile and never bat an eyelid and still go to his Vodka Martini.
Ah! The departed is another story! But I will forgo writing anything about it here, lest that this comment become a tome.
But do enjoy the movies.
yet another entry,
Let me pick up, where Twaaks has left off— the movie Departed. Nothing great about this movie, just another Hollywood flick on usual ‘chor police’ story, on the backdrop of Irish community of Boston.
This may not be Coppola’s classic— Godfather, where being gangsta was almost cool and stylish. Irish community may not be immortalized, or even forgiven as Italians were in Godfather for being calculative and cold blooded, but sure is a good time pass for the span of the movie.
Story flows smoothly, and holds the plot, lots of gore, but not much of sex, though assemblage of beautiful people—Matt Damon, Dicaprio, don’t know the woman’s name and not so pleasant to look at—Jack Nicholson.
But it’s the Jack who holds the onus of marketability of the movie, and delivers it well. Wouldn’t be wrong to say, he is the ‘Dilip Kumar’ of Hollywood.
I wouldn’t want to divulge the plot and spoil your movie, but if you have time and money, worth a watch, better than usually Hollywood.
But, if you really want to see a good quality movies (quality is again arguably a personal taste), I would recommend, you try Independent Movies, which do not have burden of pandering to mass to be economically viable. So, film makers have ample leeway to experiment with the story and the characters, which makes it possible to portray the nuances and subtleties of human relationships—it’s triumphs and it’s failures, and everything in between.
Try these, if you have access—‘Little Miss Sun Shine’ and ‘Half Nelson’
“Little Miss Sun Shine’” have watched the promos a lot in HBO ho ki Star Movies jasto lagcha..euta chasme puchi cha ani the family goes on a trip..is it that one?..will make sure I watch it.. after this sem ends. Thanx for the movie pointers
