Tashan movie review
Right at the start, a blood red convertible Mercedes races merrily through Ladakh's dusty terrain. This is what Tashan is about - The car swivels so does the radio nervously shuffle between AC/DC's Highway to Hell and Mukesh's rendition of Kabhi Kabhie. Huge canvas, beautiful landscape and then the car loses it control, breaks thru and goes down a lake…. Very impressive till now and one would expect that it will be the most thrilling 2 and half hours in the recent times of mediocre bollywood films. But it was disappointing. Debutant director Vijay Krishna Acharya is brilliant in a few scenes, has been supported by absolutely unbelievable stunts by Akshay Kumar and some truly exotic locales, but through the remaining parts of Tashan, it appears that Yash Raj Banner is experimenting with the Indian audience. They have done a quality job in the promos of this movie, so as in the ini ....

Sirf, movie review
Like a lone highway at night, in life, we never know what awaits us next. Yet we keep living in the hope of a better tomorrow. Sirf, movie review... We base all our happiness on one thing that is missing in our life, which we see in other's lives. We feel that the possession of this one missing thing would mean the end of all our problems. We'll never know if this missing thing lives up to our expectations. But one thing is for sure. In pursuit of this "one" missing thins, we often go to any extent to achieve it, thus complicating what could be a simple and blissful life.

U me aur Hum movie review
Ajay Devgan makes an impressive debut as a Director with this touching tale of love. The film U Me aur Hum is based on most profound of human emotions in a story that is both tender and extremely moving. The film sets in a bizarre ambience for a charming journey right from the opening credits which are imaginatively designed inscribed with worldly love definitions. Ajay initiates his love story on a cruise-liner with his narrative which literally takes over to narrate a compelling story in the flashback mode. Ajay is a happy-go-lucky, fun loving man, till he comes across Pia and falls head over heels in love. She does not immediately reciprocate, although later on she falls for his charm. They get married and lead a happy life, but destiny has something else for them. U Me aur Hum begins with some forgetful moments, which occur often and then get finally diagnosed as Alzheimer's di ....

26th July at Barista movie review
26th July at Barista, 2005 As usual, the day started as any normal Mumbai monsoon day. Children enjoying the rain, and people traveling towards their office or other places unknown to what was in store for them. The usual grumbling going around that our Mumbai Municipal Corporation has done nothing to withstand heavy downpour if it occurs, etc. Barista is one of the coffee shops in Bandra, a suburb in Mumbai that's known for its cordial atmosphere and great coffee. Many of them had come to enjoy a cup of coffee and some who wanted to spend their time with friends on a pleasant rainy evening. 26th July at Barista, the movie is a salute to the spirit of Mumbai and World Humanity. The Natural catastrophe which destructed many lives of People and Property and laid the bare fact that nobody is above the nature. But the human spirit moves ahead to fight & make his & other live ....

The master director Subhash Ghai is back not with a bang, but with a convincing restraint in his latest film Black and White.
