Next bollywood offering - One Two Three

The next movie from the Bollywood shop floor is One Two Three, a movie starring Suniel Shetty, Paresh Rawal, Tusshar Kapoor, Sameera Reddy, Esha Deol, Neetu Chandra, Tanisha, Upen Patel and then some more.

The promos are running full steam on the various TV channels and I think the film will release soon. When the promos, trailers and songs are seen in continuous succession that means the movie is progressing well, the shooting is almost complete and the producer has not fled from Bombay!!!! Hehe heheh heh. So the movie will be released a few weeks after they say it will That's who Bollwood works here.

The songs or at least the songs used in the trailers look catchy and the movie has a kind of happening freshness. By freshness I mean one was getting tired of the comedies being churned out. And this one looks a bit well made and has a decent plot for a change. But it also has Tushar Kapoor and when a movie or project has him, I immediately think of Balaji films (Mujhe Kuch Kehna Hai, Kyaa Kool Hai Hum). That means Balaji is involved and thats how he got the role. And that screws up the project to an extent. No issues with him but he seems just too wooden, no charisma and very ordinary looking. And his language control is bad. I mean I heard he can barely speak Hindi in real life. Then why do they come into Bollywood for gods sake? For the easy money? Its disgusting, working in the Hindi Film Industry and not knowing the language. I mean I can understand people like Upen Patel or Katrine Kaif who came in from England, they have an excuse. But a Bombayite? And what about Marathi? Shouldn't the MNS or Shive Sena retards be targetting him?

Anyway, only hope is for Paresh Rawal in the movie. Prob is he is doing the same roles too often. He must start abstaining from such roles and go for a major overhaul. Are you listening Paresh bhai?

Ajay Devgun's Halla Bol is a pretty good flick

I watched Halla Bol yesterday and found it to be a pretty decent movie. Ajay has acted competently as usual and the movie is an accurate portrayal of the Hindi film industry also called Bollywood. It shows Ajay as a small town boy moving from the street theatre group of Pankaj Kapur and trying his luck in Bollywood. He strikes it big and then starts his metamorphis. From a middle class morally upright citizen to a weak, money seeking shallow superstar.

Vidya Balan plays his wife and she has a small role which she does competently. I really wanted to see more of her as would many of her fans. She is a beautiful woman in every sense of the word and is a fine actress. So it was kinda disappointing to see that she had a smallish role in the film.

If fact one can say after Ajay, it is Pankaj Kapur who has the meatiest role. In fact he also has a decent amout of the 'hit' dialogues as one calls it. Hats off to Ajay Devgun for doing such a role where unlike in the earlier era, the stars were insecure if a fellow actor got better lines or scenes. He is following the path taken by Akshay Kumar who is working in multi-starrers or ensemble movies and delivering hits due to a superior product being dished out.

I think this movie may cause a lot of controversy as it has taken a few potshots at the reigning biggies like Shahrukh Khan and Aamir. Watch it and find out!
