99, not out, movie review
Presented by People Pictures and produced by Anupam Mittal and Aditya Shastri 99 not out the film is a refreshing change. It is an original story inspired by real events. It is as much “what could have been” as it is “what really happened.” In other words, it is historical fiction - being the keyword. It spans a few genres, it is slick, fast-paced, realistic and, importantly, very funny. 99 not out - movie review... In this "smart comedy" set in 1999, all the characters are bound by a common feeling of being stuck at 99 in life - just one short of a ‘century’ - that elusive thing called "making it" in life! 99 the film has betting, gambling and match fixing as a part of this film. Sachin (Kunal Khemu) and Zaramud (Cyrus Broacha) are the two happy-go-lucky friends who make easy cash by duplicating mobile phone SIM cards. One day, while being chased by the cops they ....

Jai Veeru’s narrative has some resemblance to the Hollywood hits - 48 Hours, Lethal Weapon, Rush Hour and even apna Jackie Shroff - Anil Kapoor starrer ‘Andar Bahar’.

Dhoondte Reh Jaoge, movie review
‘The concept is simple, brilliant, failsafe, unique and guaranteed to work,’ says Anand Pawar (Kunal Kemmu) an honest Charted Accountant but looser in life, to Raj Chopra (Paresh Rawal), a veteran film Producer with no money, heavily in debt as all his previous films have been flops in the film Dhoondte Reh Jaoge. Anand and Raj team up and hatch a plan to raise money to produce a feature film and then actually make it for a pittance. They plot to make it so badly that audiences will reject it on the first day of its release, which would give them a foolproof chance to decamp with the remaining invested funds. All they need to do is raise 100 Crore from various financers and produce the film in 5 Crore. They would then make a film that will never work, a film that will be hooted out on the first day itself and run away with 95 Crore. They want to become instant millionaires i ....

Superstar, movie review
Kunal Khemu is the star in the film Superstar that is about an aspiring actor who wants to make it big in Bollywood. Not only a fine actor, he can actually carry a film on his shoulders. Superstar has the backdrop of Bollywood to showcase a story of look-alikes who by chance switch their fortunes in an industry where there is only one God: Money. Superstar, the film has him in a double role where one Kunal is the self-indulgent son of a producer (Darshan Jariwala) who pumps in all the money he has to create a superstar out of his son. The other Kunal is a wannabe actor, who drives his rickety motorbike from Borivili (a distant suburb in Mumbai) to Film City in search of a great role which will make him a mix of Amitabh, Shah Rukh and Salman. We have a doting mother (Reema Lagoo), an anxious father (Sharat Saxena) and a cute girlfriend (Tulip Joshi). The wild son seems to be a no ....
