Black & White, movie review
The master director Subhash Ghai is back not with a bang, but with a convincing restraint in his latest film Black and White. Pleasingly, even the leading actors, Anil Kapoor and newcomer Anurag Sinha have portrayed splendid restraint all thru Black and White, the film.

Jodhaa Akbar, movie review
Ashutosh Gowariker's film is a magnum opus though the only flaw being its 3 and half hours long! Jodhaa Akbar is a sixteenth century epic romance story, the most ambitious hindi film with heavy doses of electrifying drama and wide canvas battle sequences. It's a dream all throughout whether it is large scale action sequences or the romance, and the beautiful landscapes of Rajasthan and even the torch and candle lit interiors of Agra fort.

Mithya, movie review
Mithya means a lie. Lies and everything else apart, it's an absolute entertainer. Rajat Kapoor has tried a never-before- tried treatment in this film and outcome is as unexpected as its meaning. He manages to weave together both the elements of comedy and a crime thriller and come up with a movie which surprises us by its sheer boldness. Mithya is filled with all the ingredients of a Bollywood hit movie - comedy, drama, action, romance, love, and finally, a good story of a guy who finds himself at the wrong place in the wrong time and how that changes his life. VK (Ranveer Shorey) is a struggling actor, like thousands of film aspirants who reach Bollywood, comes to Mumbai with endless big film dreams. But fate has something in store for him, for it makes him a pawn in a master game plan of the underworld, and then he unknowingly gets drawn into a whirlpool of events that will deter ....

Bombay to Bangkok, movie review
Nagesh Kukunoor in his latest film Bombay to Bangkok portrays that love has no boundaries and even can surpass language barriers. It is a cute romantic story with its heart in the right place. It also has a subplot within the plot, which comes as a surprise towards the end. Flow and treatment in this film is same as Kukunoor's earlier films, eventhough the byline screams 'same-same, but different'! Bombay to Bangkok has simple narration is simple; and some moments between Shreyas Talpade and Lina Christianson are handled very romantically.

Return of Hanuman - movie review
The film begins with a disclaimer stating that Return of Hanuman is not a sequel to any film made before. This animated film is superb and technically dazzling. The story begins with a vibrantly and remarkably picturised narrative about how Rahu and Ketu came into existence. Then it shows why man himself is the biggest evil or the impact of pollution leading to global crisis. There is a battle between Gods and the devils. Lord Hanuman requests Narad Muni to convince Lord Brahma to send him to earth. While Lord Brahma is most apprehensive, he eventually takes a softer line, but Lord Hanuman is made to sign a contract, which has several do's and don'ts Return of Hanuman, movie review...
