Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece
Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
braddugg A roller coaster fun ride film that has many good moments.I liked it primarily for the treatment. It's a story that has some clues from yesteryear's DON but was treated completely differently and more realistically. Kudos to the director Rajat Kapoor for having the courage to put this up.Ranvir Shorey shows many facets of his acting capabilities here. He is simply brilliant and endearing. As the film moves, his character evolves and thus it grew on me. Of others, Naseeruddin Shah was at ease with his character. Saurabh Shukla plays his role effortlessly. A host of others gather to make this film a watch just for their acting. The best part of the film is the cast in itself. The cast that has tremendous acting abilities. The cinematography was good, if not great. What was shown was adequately done. The editing was superb. Considering this as 1 hour 50 minutes film, all the unnecessary things are chopped off. No uncalled for songs and no heroic fights. It's simply put and well compiled.The writing is terrific. With showing small cultural differences to major mindset exchanges, the film deals with many aspects without any hype and hoopla. The simplicity comes to the foray as a saving grace and it indeed is the big positive of this film.Thanks to writers Rajat Kapoor and Saurabh Shukla for having written it so exceptionally well. Also, thanks to producers for having the courage to bring it on screen. If not for anything, just watch it for Ranvir Shorey. A 4.5 for this brilliant film. http://braddugg.blogspot.in/
Pinto Chaudhari Mithya,a movie directed by Arindam Chaudhuri,who is generally called as a Management Guru and known as the best marketing guru.This is the best movie i have seen.If I talk about the story,The movie is about VK (Ranvir Shorey) is a jugadoo junior artist who lives from day to day. He is working as an extra on a movie which stars Sonam (Neha Dhupia). Not surprisingly, VK likes Sonam from afar. However, his existence is very peripheral and after one really bad day he decides to go to the seaside with his adhia of whiskey and a glass that comes free with it. He finds himself witnessing a shootout between two rival gangs. He goes to the police and finds the gang of Gavde (Naseeruddin Shah) on his tail. He is abducted and finds that he is the spitting image of Raje, the rival Don. Gavde plans to kill Raje and implant VK in his place, to finish the gang from inside.
Rocky gupta I would rate this film as 8 out of 10 and would recommend every cinema lover to go and watch this film. I am sure you will be glad that you watched this film. The movie is about the life of a struggling actor VK (Ranveer), who finds himself in the middle of a gang war just because of his looks. This movie has a lot of twists and it will be unfair on my part to give away those here. In one line, the film is story of a guy who finds himself at the wrong place in the wrong time and how that changes his life.The best part of the movie is Ranvir Shorey, who is superb in double role. He plays the comic sequences and the serious ones with equal conviction. And the next revelation is Neha Dhupia, who also acts this time impressively.
Ronak Soni Mithya is a movie directed by Rajat Kapoor and as a viewer i love the work done by him as a director.The story of the film is very different and its after a very long time that I saw a film like this one. Ranveer Shorey has given a brilliant performance. Mithya is a film that has all ingredients of entertainment and can be called a complete entertainment. Mithya is a story about an unemployed actor VK (playd by Ranvir Shorey) whose life takes a sudden turn when it is discovered that his face resembles that of a powerful don Rajeh (again played by Ranvir Shorey). The movie starts on a wonderful pace with some funny sequences thrown in. A memorable one is where the some henchmen try to take out a snap of VK. It must be watched because there are not many such movies in Hindi cinema.
