Director Shashant Shah’s movie Dasvidaniya is a slow but heart-wrenching tale of a 37-year-old man who has few months left to live and sets out to live it to the fullest before he says his final goodbye.The movie, though not based on a novel premise, works because of actor Vinay Pathak ’s emphatic performance as a dying man with an ironic name Amar, and because of the finely etched-out characters in the story.
Cast: Vinay Pathak, Neha Dhupia, Rajat Kapoor
Anamika (1973) is a Hindi movie made in India and directed by Raghunath Jalani.It is a romantic, suspense film with memorable songs by composer R.D. Burman and lyricist Majrooh Sultanpuri, such as “Meri Bheegi Bheegi Si” sung by Kishore Kumar and “Bahon Mein Chale Aao” sung by Lata Mangeshkar.This film is unrelated to the 2008 film Anamika starring Dino Morea.
New talent ought to be encouraged. I genuinely believe — have written this time and again — that [generally] new talent is ready to take on risks and challenges, a quality I admire most.And it’s important that new talent makes inroads into the industry.Almost every production house/studio is producing films with new talent. Viacom18’s Tipping Point Films has released SHAITAN, Yash Raj’s Y-Films has released LUV KA THE END and has a slew of projects on floors, Balaji’s ALT Entertainment has produced LOVE SEX AUR DHOKHA and RAGINI MMS successfully, UTV’s UTV Spotboy has a number of films to its credit… 
Shot in Mauritius, the film shows Sanjay Suri and Sharman Joshi vying for Chitrangada Singh’s attention with a laid back stay-calm stay-cool kind of urbane chic that often masquerades as a mirror of contemporary mores in today’s cinema.Happily, “Sorry Bhai” has plenty of genuine moments of emotional ‘ouch’-burst.This isn’t a film about confrontational relationships.The characters prefer to keep it nice and peaceful on the surface, no matter what the turmoil inside, just like the blue oceans and white sands of Mauritius
This is one of the minor examples of Bollywood’s ability to cross genres.For better ones, turn to “Humraaz” or, well, probably anything you can find on the market.Why is “Yeh Kaisi Mohabbat” this bad? It starts and ends with Johnny Lever.
Years ago, a popular TV series MALGUDI DAYS left an indelible impression on the minds of viewers.Now Shyam Benegal’s WELCOME TO SAJJANPUR takes you back to a hamlet that has its share of assorted characters: a letter writer, a power-hungry goon, a eunuch, a short tempered army man and his widowed daughter-in-law, a compounder, a house wife who’s husband, working in Mumbai, hasn’t showed up for four Diwalis…These are characters you’ve seen, witnessed, might even relate to.
Sorry to disappoint all the young girls, but unfortunately Ranbir doesn’t drop the towel in this one but to make it up to you, he looks super hot throughout the film, appearing shirtless in a few scenes. Bachna Ae Haseeno may have flaws as a film, yet it succeeds in entertaining and does so many things right, that you are willing to overlook the mistakes. The best part about the film is that in spite of being slightly over two hours twenty minutes, the film’s pace is very crisp and you in fact may walk out of the theatre planning to see the film again. 
So it turns out for the crazy comedy by Anees Bazmee , the man who directed Welcome and No Entry.Bazmee’s over-the-top comedies are known to have a blatant disregard for sense, style and subtlety.‘Singh Is Kinng’ is no different.With its many contrived twists and turns – and not to forget its outlandish characters – the movie doesn’t ask you to use your brain, nor does it proclaim to have one itself.It is a film that doesn’t take itself seriously and it tries every recipe in the book of entertainment to give you laughs worth your money spent.
