David, hindi film, directed by Bejoy Nambiar, is the tale of three men from different parts of the world, timed in three different eras.
It is often said that everyone arrives and departs with their own destiny, but often the destinies of seemingly un-connected people intertwine to bring a drastic change in their lives.
Way back in 1975 in London, a 30-year-old David is the protégé of a mafia don, his namesake in 1999 in Mumbai is a musician. And the third ‘David’ stays in contemporary Goa, and he is now 40!
The director who gave us Shaitaan, now ties the tales of the three… and several others with crafty grit in this action thriller.
About all the three Davids - Vikram’s story takes place in Goa, while the two other stories are featured as that in Mumbai and London and that they transpire at different periods.
Neil Nitin Mukesh works hard in this one and sports ....

Asha Bhosle plays the role of a mother suffering from Alzheimer's in the Marathi film Mai.
Mai - movie review
Mai is the story of an helpless mother and her ungrateful and insensitive children.. The subject is cliched, but it is Asha Bhosle’s performance which is the highlight of the film.
It is wonderful to see Asha Tai taking personal interest in this touching film where she is in front of the camera. And she has played the role of an ageing mother very naturally. This is the highlight of this film.
In Baghban we had the aged parents whose children weren’t willing to take care of them. In this film it is the 65 year old mother of three daughters and a son. The son is much involved in his personal problems that he is least interested in taking care of his mother.
The eldest daughter Madhu (Padmini Kolhapure) is the only one who cares for her mother, and then she ....

Race 2 is a high-octane, style-heavy sequel to the 2008 hit Race, plunging viewers into a world of betrayal, revenge, and opulence. Set against the backdrop of exotic locales and turbo-charged action, the film follows Ranveer Singh (Saif Ali Khan) as he seeks vengeance for his lover’s death, navigating a maze of deceit involving Armaan Malik (John Abraham), Aleena (Deepika Padukone), and a host of glamorous players.
Saif Ali Khan brings suave intensity to Ranveer, though his character feels more like a fashion model than a man on a mission. John Abraham flexes his muscles as the antagonist, but his villainy lacks nuance. Deepika Padukone and Jacqueline Fernandez serve up style and seduction, though their roles are more ornamental than substantial.
Anil Kapoor, reprising his role as RD, adds comic relief with fruity one-liners, while Ameesha Patel plays his ditzy assistant Cherry ....
