(more…)

1. Rang De Basanti : Youthful, down-to-earth movie which packages so called boring ideas interestingly with dialogues that give a lump in your throat.

2. Omkara : Honesty is reflected everywhere. A wonderful movie with superb acting by Saif Ali Khan, Kareena Kapoor and Kokanana Sensharma.

3. Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna : Path breaking yet traditional, emotional yet entertaining movie laced with perfect performances from all. Rani is spectacular.

4. Water : Sensible Indo-English Film by Deepa Mehta, about hard lives of widow.

5. Krrish: Awesome special effects, and Hrithik’s acting was amazing.

6. Gangster : Striking well made movie with such emotional undercurrents which maybe unnoticed by an ordinary viewer.

7. Taxi No.9211 : Fresh, contemporary and bring light to artificiality in modern relationships.

8. Malaamal Weekly : Rib-tickling mass movies. You will be rolling on your seats which is great for a starless movie.

9. Chup Chup Ke : Priyadarshan packages content in an entertainment mode. It doesnot mock physically challenged anyways. Shaih and Rajpal Yadav are hilarious.

10. Corporate : A slick movie on an alien theme. We say a different Bipasha Basu and she was not anything less than other heroines of Madhur Bhandarkar’s films.

11. Ankahee : Disturbingly honest movie with lots of questions raced to the society. The girls, Esha and Amisha are great.

12. Fanaa: Not at all impressive, but Kajol !

13. Phir Hera Pheri: Silly, yet funny. Good to see team of Baburao, Raju And Shyam.

14. Aksar: Intresting plot, good acting.
