Ishq (1997)

Ishq (”Romance”) is all over the place - even for a masala film. It is part slapstick comedy, part socio-political diatribe, part violent melodrama.The story is time-honored - a rich boy and a rich girl fall in love with a poor boy and a poor girl (respectively); the rich family disapproves, and plots and schemes to separate them.The first half of the film is full of slapstick silliness as the romances develop.

Cast: Aamir Khan, Ajay Devgan, Juhi Chawla, Kajol

EMI (2008) *HQ*

Bhai log. Better save your sweat money for this month’s actual EMI, than to waste it on this boring film.EMI is loosely inspired from the films of Munnabhai series.The only difference is that here the protagonist Sattarbhai ( Sanjay Dutt ) is not the focus of the story.The story rather revolves around five different characters.It draws its inspiration from real life incidents of goons posing as loan recovery agents and harassing defaulters till they either pay up or end their lives.

Cast: Sanjay Dutt, Arjun Rampal, Urmila
