Once Upon A Time in Mumbaai, movie review
Seen through the eyes of a police officer, 'Once Upon A time in Mumbaai' traces the changing face of the Mumbai underworld and how it all started. The film, set primarily in 1970s Mumbai, follows the rise of Sultan and the conflict, when his protégé Shoaib challenges his supremacy, and usurps power to rule the murky underbelly of Mumbai.

With his might and wisdom, and for peace in the city, he divides and allocates Bombay into different zones to the smugglers of that time. ....

Tere Bin Laden, movie review
Tere Bin Laden is a tongue-in-cheek comedy about an ambitious young news reporter from Pakistan who is desperate to migrate to the US in pursuit of the American dream. Ali (Ali Zafar) is the TV journalist with a "never say die" attitude. His repeated attempts to immigrate are shot down as his visa is always rejected.

The news reporter gathers stories together with Gul (Nikhil Ratnaparkhi) who is his friend, apartment mate and a cameraman.

Lamhaa, movie review
Lamhaa is a social-action thriller about the life of people of Kashmir valley, a story about terrorists and the Indian army’s fight against terrorism. An outright bold and frank approach at the multi-layered turmoil in Kashmir, having quite a few real-life references that simply sums up as a genuine film about a real problem. Fortunately, national award winning director Rahul Dholakis does not exploit the political situation for narrating this love story. Cinematographer Jamie Fowlds captures the natural splendor of Kashmir in its beauty and well so in its sinister shades. Lamhaa movie review... An unidentified ‘company’ controlled by local leaders, generating millions of unaccountable dollars for the benefit of politicians and even the bureaucrats in the Indian and Pakistani intelligence is likely to disrupt and possibly paralyze Kashmir. This company’s mission is to brain ....

Udaan, movie review
Udaan is the story of a school student who isn’t so happy going to his family during his vacation. This sensitive topic and its characters are handled with understanding and maturity. Director Vikramaditya Motwane’s film is not preachy as it may seem from its promos. A straightforward tale of a young boy and his relationship with his rigid father and helpless younger step brother told in the most simplistic way. Udaan movie review... Rajat Barmecha plays the role of an adolescent who has stepped into his teens and how he faces a tyrant father, a step brother he never knew existed and how he eventually breaks the shackles and frees himself from a world that's slowly suffocating him. After being abandoned for eight straight years in boarding school, Rohan (Rajat Barmecha) returns to the small industrial town of Jamshedpur and finds himself closeted with an authoritarian father (R ....

Red Alert, movie review
The launch of a worthwhile revolution has to have a foundation of clear-cut objectives. And where the aim itself is not defined, what is the point of just running a parallel government type organization in the name of revolution? Red Alert movie review... This will lead nowhere, as it is deceiving yourself and cheating your followers who have put their faith in you. Director Anant Mahadevan has come up with an outstanding movie Red Alert which is based on a true story. It has a slick narrative and has turned out to be an edge of the seat thriller, which honestly presents both the sides of the conflicting groups - administration and the naxalites. Even the men in uniform stand exposed, exploiting their powers especially when an innocent girl is seen by them as their prey. 'Red Alert: the War Within' is based on the true story of Narasimha (played by Suniel Shetty), a poor farm la ....

Milenge Milenge, movie review
Love happens, if you let it; even if destiny has to step in to lend a hand. But when its about finding that special person you're going to spend the rest of your life with, should you risk tempting fate with a test of that love or should you just embrace your destiny? Milenge Milenge movie review... Finally Milenge Milenge is released and its promos point out that this is Shahid and Kareena’s last film together. The film seems dated as it was shot much earlier and as Shahid and Kareena have separated 3 years ago in real life. Shahid Kapoor is Amit. He is your regular rich guy, who smokes, drinks and flirts with gay abandon. He takes life and affairs of the heart lightly. And by the time he realizes he actually loves Priya, its too late. She's left him and their love to the vagaries of fate. Kareena Kapoor is Priya. She's a die hard romantic, who believes that destiny and only ....

Krantiveer, movie review
The original Krantiveer, released almost a decade ago had Nana Patekar and Dimple Kapadia. Now, this called as Krantiveer - The Revolution, is a sequel to it which is socially and politically relevant today. Krantiveer - the revolution - movie review... Its time to free the country of violence, terrorism and corruption. This story begins where the first Krantiveer ends and this time it’s about the revolution that concerns the younger generation and is all about the power game that power drunk people are interested in. The film dares to blow lid off the issues that are disturbing the society. It is about the young fiery protagonist Roshni (introducing Jahan Bloch), who is the screen daughter of Dimple and Nana. The last time around, we rooted out the devils that came from across the seas. Now the demons are within. And they are more vicious and wicked. We need to fight them wit ....
