Super hero dressed as a Mughal emperor?

The look Abhishek has been given for his next film Drona is a bit unusal to say the least. It isn't the usual spandex or lyra outfits worn by Hollywood super heroes, but is almost an outfit out of a catwalk of Delhi fashion designers presenting a Pre-independance look show. Not that it looks bad, just that one usually doesn't associate super heroes or even people with mystical powers to be dressed like a prince or Nawab from Lucknow.

But to his credit AB carries it off as he is tall and lanky and the initial promotion has him standing in a very dramatic and decisive pose. But the important thing is if the story is good, entertaining, plausible, the movie is well made, and finally the performances. Many a good movie has crashed due to awful performances by supposedly good actors.

I somehow find the story quite appealing as it combines our beautiful and rich history with the modern era. If this movie does click then it will spawn a hash of movies trying to break "the barriers" so to say.

Also looking forward to see Piggy chops in an action role and also get a well desrved hit under her belt. Poor chick has been facing a lot of flak for her Love story 2050 debacle.

It holiday time with Sunday!!!!

Audiences are waiting to see if Sunday will join the increasing number of films that have hit the bullseye with comedy being the engine that drives them. Sunday has an eclectic starcast ofAyesha Takia, Ajay Devgan, Arshad Warsi, Irfan Khan, Esha Deol and Anjana Sukhani.

Ajay and Arshad have proved thir mettle with comedy earlier with fils like Ishq, Golmaal and Munnabhai series and Dhamaal respectively. It will be interesting to see how Irfan Khan manages comedy, despite him being a great actor. He does have a quirky sense of humor and relies on his tone to make a scene effective as opposed to making silly faces. The ladies are pretty and add to the glamour quotient of the movie. Heres hoping to a fun Sunday with these stars.
