Pyaar Impossible- Not even 3 on 10 – Movie Review

I am still trying to figure out, why exactly did I go to watch a movie which had Uday Chopra in a lead role and Jugal Hansraj as the director? May be because of Priyanka Chopra, who I thought would have chosen the movie after carefully reading the script. Little did I know that the sensible girl would let me down like this. But to be frank, I didn’t have many hopes with the movie, in the first place.

The movie starts with a Geek lover boy, Abhay (Uday) who is madly in love with the hottest girl in college, Alisha (Priyanka) who has not even noticed that he exists. Seven years pass by and fate makes them come together again in Singapore where Uday is searching for a thief who stole his software and Priyanka is working with the same thief, Varun (Dino Morea)

The story has been written very badly by Uday Chopra himself and what really surprised me was, it’s a straight lift from a Sophie Kinsella’s novel, ‘The Undomestic Goddess’. In the novel, the main protagonist works as a housemaid, despite being a hot shot lawyer and in the movie Uday works as a nanny for Priyanka’s daughter, although he is software engineer. She outsources her work to other workers and so does Uday. Finally, in the end Priyanka realizes that the loser working in her house has loved her madly all the years and she helps him get his software back.

The movie definitely lacks a sensible direction. Uday Chopra has made no efforts to act in the movie. Even Priyanka, who has impressed in her last movies, irritates in few scenes. All the efforts were only made to make her look as sexy as possible, which doesn’t help a lot to pull the crowd to theatres.

Dino Morea has done well as the bad guy and Priyanka’s daughter Tania is cute.

The music of the movie is composed by Salim-Sulaiman which is not great either. Only song that impressed me was 10 on 10. But I stil can’t give 10 to this song.

Overall, Uday please join acting and script-writing classes before you think of another movie, you may get Jugal enrolled in the same school for direction classes. And miss Priyanka, please choose the movies wisely. You are currently the best in the industry, do not lose the position.

I wouldn’t recommend it a theatre-watch. Wait, till it broadcasts on Television. You may spend a Sunday evening on it.

Rating: 1.5/5

Dil To Bachcha Hai Lyrics – Ishqiya

Music Director: Vishal Bhardwaj
Director: Abhishek Chaubhey
Lyricist: Gulzar
Starring: Naseeruddin Shah, Arshad Warsi, Vidya Balan

Aisi ulji nazar unse hatthi nahin

Danth se reshmi dor katthi nahin
Umar kab ki baras ke sufaid ho gayi
Kaari badri jawani ki chatthi nahin
Varna yeh dhadkan baadne lagi hai
Chehre ki rangat udne lagi hai
Dar lagtha hai tanha sone mein ji
Dil to bachcha hai ji
Dil to bachcha hai ji
Thoda kachha hai ji
Haann Dil to bachcha hai ji

Aisi ulji nazar unse hatthi nahin
Danth se reshmi dor katthi nahin
Umar kab ki baras ke sufaid ho gayi
Kaari badri jawani ki chatthi nahin

Ra ra raaaa… ra ra raaa….
Ra ra raaaa… ra ra raaa….
Ra ra raaaa… ra ra raaa….

Kisko ptaa tha pehlu mein rakha
Dil aisa baaji bhi hoga
Hum to hamesha samajhte the koi
Hum jaisa haaji hi hoga
Haan yeh zor karein, kitna shor karein
Bewaja baatein pe ainwe gaur karein
Dilsa koi kameena nahin
Koi to rokey, koi to tokey
Iss umar mein ab khaogey dhokhe
Dar lagta hai ishq karne mein ji
Dil to bachcha hai ji
Dil to bachcha hai ji
Thoda kachha hai ji
Haann Dil to bachcha hai ji

Aisi udhaasi baithi hai dil pe
Hassne se ghabra rahe hain
Saari jawani katra ke kaati
Piri mein takra gaye hain
Dil dhadakta hai to aise lagta hai woh
Aa raha hai yahin dekhta hi na woh
Prem ki maarein kataar re
Tauba ye lamhe katthe nahi kyun
Aankhein se meri hatthe nahi kyun
Dar lagta hai tujhse kehne mein ji

Dil to bachcha hai ji
Dil to bachcha hai ji
Thoda kachha hai ji

Sajda (lyrics)- My Name Is Khan

Rom rom tera naam pukaare
Ek hue din reain hamare
Hum se hum hi chiin gaye hai
Jab se dekhe hai nainn deewane
Sajda ..

Teri kaali ankhiyon se jind meri jaage
Dhadkan se tej daudu, sapno se aagey
Ab jaan lutt jaaye, ye jahaan chhut jaaye
Sang pyaar rahe, main rahun na rahun
Sajda tera sajda,
Din reain karoon na hi chain karoon
Sajda tera sajda
Rak vaar karoon meri jaan lut doon

Ab jaan lutt jaaye, ye jahaan chhut jaaye
Sang pyaar rahe, main rahun na rahun
Sajda tera sajda,
(karun mein tera sajda)
Din reain karoon na hi chain karoon
Sajda tera sajda
(karun mein tera sajda)
Rak vaar karoon meri jaan lut doon

Ranjhna… naino ke teer chal gaye
Sajna… saanson se dil sil gaye
Palkon mein chupa loon, oh tera sajda karoon
Seenay mein samaa loon, oh din reain karoon
Palkon mein chupa loon, seenay mein samaa loon
Tere ang ang rang mera bole

Ab jaan lutt jaaye, ye jahaan chhut jaaye
Sang pyaar rahe, main rahun na rahun
Sajda tera sajda,
(karun mein tera sajda)
Din reain karoon na hi chain karoon
Sajda tera sajda
(karun mein tera sajda)
Rak vaar karoon meri jaan lut doon

Veliya kya hua jo dil kho gaya
Mahiya ishq mein khuda mil gaya
Zara aakh se pila de, oh tera sajda karoon
Zara khwaab sajaa de, oh din reain karoon
Zara aakh se pila de, zara khwaab sajaa de
Mere hontoon pe mann tera bole

Ab jaan lutt jaaye, ye jahaan chhut jaaye
Sang pyaar rahe, main rahun na rahun
Sajda tera sajda,
(karun mein tera sajda)
Din reain karoon na hi chain karoon
Sajda tera sajda
(karun mein tera sajda)
Rak vaar karoon meri jaan lut doon

Ohhh… Teri kaali ankhiyon se jind meri jaage
Dhadkan se tej daudu, sapno se aagey
Ab jaan lutt jaaye, ye jahaan chhut jaaye
Sang pyaar rahe, main rahun na rahun
Sajda tera sajda,
Din reain karoon na hi chain karoon
Sajda tera sajda
Rak vaar karoon meri jaan lut doon

3 Idiots – Almost all izz well with the movie (Review)

The day I heard about the movie 3 Idiots, I wanted to watch it. firstly because it is the movie adaptation of one of my favourite novels, Five Point Someone. Secondly, Raju Hirani and Vidhu Vinod Chopra were coming back with a great star cast. The excitement to watch the movie increased by manifolds after watching the trailer itself. And finally, I couldn’t wait to watch it when most people in India were going gaga about it. Almost all of them wanting to watch it again. So finally, a day off from office led me to the theatre where 3 idiots was running.

The movie talks about the story of three friends who not just share a room but also concerns, good, bad, funny and awful times while in an engineering college. Farhaan and Raju (Madhavan and Sharman) are normal students running behind ‘just’ a college degree, Rancho (Aamir Khan) wants to enjoy the education and take the knowledge from wherever he gets. Like TZP, Aamir once again questions the current Indian education system, which puts a lot of pressure on young minds, even forcing few of them to commit suicide.

The movie thrives on the message: pursue excellence and success will follow, which is amazing. Direction of the movie is splendid and the emotional and comedy scenes really stand out. Though I realised it was only very loosely based on the novel. Raju has changed the script to a great extent, and it does go well with showcasing the movie on the screen. The story ofcourse has its own flaws like: Very good friends’ don’t have to wait six years to find the address of their dear friend. You can always refer to college records, and reach the address mentioned there.

As usual, Aamir leaves you awe-struck with his performance. I was surprised to see that he actually looked and acted like a college student even at the age of 43. While Aamir Khan is the USP of the film, Sharman was the one who really impressed me a lot with his perfect expressions and good acting skills. Madhavan proved once again, he is more than welcome in Bollywood. Boman Irani does justice to the character of an old man who is hated by everyone for being a cold-hearted college director. Kareena and Mona Singh did well in their small roles. And there shoulda be special mention of the surprise package of the movie, Omi Vaidya who plays Chatur Ramalingam, had some of the best one-liners and the funniest comic scenes.

Shantanu Moitra comes again with great soundtracks. My favourite were the “All izz well” and “zoobi zoobi”. All the songs are worth listeningagain and again for a long time to come. Overall, 3 Idiots is an awesome one time watchable movie. I learned, laughed and cried with the characters , but don’t think I would like to re-enter the class once again.

BTW, did Raju take a dig at Chetan Bhagat by declaring on-screen that why should people study Engineering when all they want is a MBA degree and a bank job abroad? (Chetan Bhagat is an IITian and MBA from IIM-A and has worked in Deutsche bank in Singapore).

‘All izz well’ lyrics – 3 Idiots

Nananana re re ree..

Jab life ho out of control
Honthon ko kar ke gol

Honthon ki kar ke gol
Seeti bajaa ke bol

Jab life ho out of control
Honthon ko kar ke gol

Honthon ki kar ke gol
Seeti bajaa ke bol

Aal izzz well!!!!

Murgi kya jaane aande ka kya hoga
Aree life milegi ya tawee pe fry hoga
Koi na jaane apna future kya hoga?

Honth ghuma seeti bajaa
Seeti bajaa ke bol
Bhaiyaa aal izz well

Aree bhaiyaa aal izz well
Aree chachu aal izz well
Aree bhaiyaa aal izz well

Confusuin hi confusion hai
Solution kuch pata nahin

Solution jo mile to saala
Question kya tha pata nahin

Dil jo tera baat baat pe ghabraaye
Dil pe rakhke haath usae tu fuslaa le
Dil idiot hai pyaar se usko samjha le

Honth ghuma seeti bajaa
Seeti bajaa ke bol
Bhaiyaa all is well

Aree bhaiyaa aal izz well
Aree chachu aal izz well
Aree bhaiyaa aal izz well

Scholarship ki pi gayaa daaru
Ghum to phir bhi mitaa nahin
Agarbattiyan raakh ho gayi
God to phir bhi dikha nahi

Bakra kya jaan uski jaan ka kya hoga?
Seekh ghusegi ya saala kheema hoga
Koi na jaane apna future kya hoga

To Honth ghuma seeti bajaa
Seeti bajaa ke bol
Bhaiyaa aal izz well

Aree bhaiyaa all izz well
Aree chachu all izz well
Aree bhaiyaa aal izz well

Jab life ho out of control
Honthon ko kar ke gol

Honthon ko kar ke gol
Seeti bajaa ke bol

Aal izzz well!!!

Murgi kya jaane aande ka kya hoga
Aree life milegi ya tawee pe fry hoga
Koi na jaane apna future kya hoga?

Honth ghuma seeti bajaa
Seeti bajaa ke bol
Bhaiyaa aal izz well

Aree murgi aal izz well
Aree bakri aal izz well
Aree bhaiyaa all izz well

Na na an na nananana na!

Aree bhaiyaa all izz well

Mamma Mia – Movie Review

The devil comes out of her Prada as a shabbily dressed single mother who has raised her daughter all alone on a beautiful island of Greece. The story of a young bride-to-be searching for her father has been nicely woven around all of the ABBA’s hit songs.

Donna (Meryl Streep) runs a tourist villa, Donna Villa, along with her daughter Sophie (Amanda Seyfried) who is getting married soon to Sky (Dominic Cooper).

Sophie desperately wants to walk down the aisle on her father’s arm. In her quest to find out who he might be, she stumbles upon her mom’s old diary and ends up inviting three possible men to the wedding- Sam (Pierce Brosnan), Bill (Stellan Skarsgard) and Harry (Colin Firth) from out of her mother’s past!! And then starts the fun-frolic-some musical fantasy trip down the aisle, which will be cherished by all age groups.

Meryl Streep gets better with age, as she injects a powerful performance in the movie and looks fabulous too. She is the ‘Dancing Queen’, who steals the show.

Supporting her are her two crazy best friends, Tanya (Christine Baranski) and Rosie (Julie Walters), who have come to join in the wedding fun but have to act as Donna’s support too, as she is quite taken aback after seeing her three ex-boyfriends at the wedding.

It is always a delight to watch Pierce Brosnan on screen, and he does full justice to his character, though he doesn’t impress much with his singing.

Overall, Mamma Mia is bound to dance its way to the box-offices. If ABBA is the music for your ears, you should not miss this one.

Singh Is Kinng movie review

First things first, if you are looking out for some intelligent cinema, please stay out of it. Singh is Kinng for hardcore entertainers. The ‘Welcome’ gang (Anees Bazmi, Akshay Kumar, Katrina Kaif and Vipul Shah) are back with a bang to give us a complete entertainer.

Happy Singh (Akshay Kumar) is a happy go lucky guy (he feeds popcorns to his goat), who loves to help out people in his village, but ends up creating serious troubles for them. To get rid of him the villagers send him to Australia in search of Lakhan (Sonu Sood) who is the king of the underworld in Australia. And as the twist in the tale happens, Happy becomes the king and converts all the king’s (lakhan) bad men to good men and gets all of them back to Punjab. During this entire journey, he also stumbles on his lady love Sonia (Katrina Kaif).

A straightforward story, with the perfect comic timing. The little dosages of emotions and action make the movie a perfect Indian masala movie. The beautiful locations of Egypt and Australia are awe-inspiring.

Though I wouldn’t give any marks for originality. Want to know which movie ‘Singh Is Kinng’ has been copied from? Search for the Jackie Chan’s movie miracle.

Katrina looks ultra-gorgeous in the movie. She should stick to the bl

ack hair colour.

Akshay is the soul of the movie. The movie will fall apart if it’s Akshay-less. So let’s stand up and make way for the newest king of Bollywood.

Maine sirf sach kaha. Achee apne aap lag jaayegi.

Taare Zameen Par- Songs and lyrics

Aishwarya Rai

Aishwarya Rai was born on 1st November 1973 in Mangalore, Karnataka.

Aishwarya Rai comes from a family of sailors. Her father Krishnaraj Rai and brother Aditya Rai, both belong to the Merchant Navy.

If not an actress, Aishwarya Rai would’ve been an architect. She enrolled for the architecture course in LS Raheja College in Mumbai.

Aishwarya Rai speaks six languages. She is fluent in English, Hindi, Tamil, Tulu, Kannada and Marathi.

Aishwarya Rai was crowned Miss World in the year 1994. Her question to glory asked by Katherine Kelly Lange was, “What qualities should Miss World 1994 embody?” Aishwarya’s answer to her questions was, “The Miss World’s that you’ve had up to date are proof enough, that they had compassion, compassion for the underprivileged… Not only for those who had status and stature, but who can look beyond barriers that man has set up for ourselves of nationality, color, we have to look beyond that, and that will make a true Miss World, a true person, a real person.”

Contrary to popular belief, Aishwarya Rai did not make her film debut in the Hindi film Aur Pyar Ho Gaya. She debuted in Mani Ratnam’s Tamil film Iruvar.

If I had done Baazigar then there would be no Mannat standing in the bandstand today: Salman Khan

Oops! After Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan has now got one more foe in tinsel town. The latest is none other than one-time good friend Salman Khan.
 
In fact, a Clash seemed to be imminent immediately after it came to be known that both Saawariya and Om Shanti Om were to be released at the same time. King Khan had even gone ahead and announced that if there was any competition, he would be sure to come out on top. That he was successful is evident from the fact that Om Shanti Om won the ‘Diwali’ battle, grossing double of what Saawariya managed to.
 
Last year too, during Diwali, these two Bollywood powerhouses had clashed at the Box office, with the release of Shah Rukh Khan’s Don and and Salman Khan’s Jaan e man, and Mr. Khan had won out at that time as well.
 
It seems that Bollywood’s Badhshah has now got Salman fuming, with the latter digging up some old graves, saying that Baazigar had first been offered to him, but he had rejected it as he had not been willing to take on the role of a negative character at that stage of his career. So, eventually, the role had fallen in Shah Rukh’s lap and had allowed him to prove his mettle. And the rest is history.
 
Our Sallu bhai adds, “If I had done Baazigar then there would be no Mannat standing in the bandstand today.” (‘Mannat’ is the name of SRK’s bungalow).
 
And he just doesn’t stop there. He also says that Shah Rukh’s role in the blockbuster Chak De India had first been offered to him. But he had rejected it since he had a problem with the movie’s title as it contained the name ‘India’ and he had not wanted to offend any of his fans in neighbouring countries.
