Lafangey Parindey

When I watched the trailer of Lafangey Parindey, I thought it will be a good movie. I went to cinema yesterday with my friend without any high expectations. I thought it will be good and entertaining.


Surprisingly, the movie was really good. The story-line was awesome although there were some parts little bit unreal but it's Bollywood movie, na? Neil Nitin is such a good actor; he delivered his dialogs brilliantly. I was convinced. My favourite moment was when Nandu (Neil Nitin) taught Pinky (Deepika) how to see although she is blind. He put her head into the water and he said something to her. I couldn't remember exactly what he said but it's awesome dialog. Deepika is improving a lot ... she can show more expression nowadays. Kay Kay Menon is awesome; although it's such a short role for him but his appearance definately gave impact for the whole movie.


My friend and I were expecting that this movie will have sad ending. Because everything is too good to be true. We thought Nandu (Neil Nitin) will die in the end. Luckily, this is still Bollywood movie and don't forget, it's a love story movie produced by Yash Raj. I think it will be a better movie if it has a sad ending; giving unexpected ending to the audience. However, it's allright ... this is really a good movie and I don't mind to watch it again. I don't like the music though.

Khatta Meetha

I went to cinema on Sunday with my friend to watch Khatta Meetha. It has been a long week and I wanted to watch something funny and felt happy. So I decided to watch Khatta Meetha because the trailer looked very funny.

Guess what? It's all WRONG! The trailer totally mislead people's expectations. When you watched the trailer, you will think that this movie is going to be a very funny movie but it's not. The movie was so sad that when I came out from the cinema I felt depressed and unhappy. The movie is about a contractor who wanted to be success but kept failing. The whole family think he is a loser ... nothing but good. Brothers, brother in laws, sisters (except one), sisters in laws hate him (sounds like soap opera, doesn't it?). The youngest sister is forced to get married with a bad guy, just for the sake of marriage and business purpose. At the end, she committed suicide because she was tortured and raped. Jeezzzz this is too much for Sunday afternoon relax movie. The story is an old concept, I felt like watching 20 years old Hindi movie. The story is too depressing and too serious.

The only good thing about this movie, I guess, Akshay Kumar. He is good. He is playing good in this role. Overall, it's ok movie but too depressing (did I mention it before?). I won't never ever watch this movie again.

Milenge Milenge

When I read about this movie few years back, I wasn't interested at all to watch ... because I don't like a movie pairing Kareena Kapoor and Shahid Kapoor. FYI, I don't like Kareena and I love Shahid, now you understand the reason. It's getting worse ... this movie is like 3-4 years old? and now they decided (producer? distributors?) to release it. Obviously, you can see the differences of their faces; they looked so young!!! I couldn't believe it ... Shahid looked like a college student, remind me of Ishq Vishk. And .... it's much worse, the songs are sang by Himesh *faint*. This movie is like a complete package of BIG NO for me.


Can you believe? I actually went to cinema on Sunday and watched this movie. Do you want to know the reason? This movie is copied from my favourite Hollywood movie all the times, Serendipity. I want to see how they make it in Bollywood version (from 1.5 hours movie to 2.5 hours movie).


Milenge Milenge apparently is not a bad movie at all; despite of, it looks old and Himesh's songs. Kareena and Shahid looked good together. If people haven't watched Serendipity (the original movie), people will like the movie because the story is very interesting and romantic. Surprisingly, this is bearable than I hate luv storys.

I hate luv storys

When the trailer came out for the first time, I was really excited and watched it many times almost everyday. I was looking forward to watch 'I hate luv storys' because it looks funny and Sonam Imran were looking great together. I also said to myself and everybody that I am going to watch it on the first day only at cinema.


Finally, my long waiting ended yesterday. I went to watch I hate luv storys with my friends and was looking forward to see a great movie. I read the review; it got 3.5 stars (hmmm must be really good then). I was laughing at few scenes; after a while I felt this movie was very slow and almost no story at all. Things were getting worse when it became more cheesy and cheesy. I told myself "It's ok ... maybe first part is slow and second part will be great". There I was, waiting for some surprises for second part.


During intermission, all my friends started complaining that the movie is very slow, "give us back our money (joking)" and "can we go home now?" I tried to comfort them by saying that the second part will be better according to the review that I read.


Second part started ... after few minutes I felt hmmm still not moving, I started feeling uncomfortable. When I looked at the watch, I was shocked because there was still another one hour to finish. If I started looking at watch and feeling uncomfortable while I was watching Bollywood movie, it's really a big thing. Because I love Bollywood movies a lot; even the most crap movies according to other people will be still good for me. Then suddenly the pictures on the screen were up side down; we were looking at each others. Hey what's going on? Apparently, there was technical problem. Can you believe it? We need to wait for around 15-20 minutes for them to fix it. My friends started complaining again and asking whether we should go home. I said I still want to see the ending; all of them said "We know the ending, Jay and Simran will be together, so now we are going home."


The story of this movie is too simple for 2.5 hours movie. There is nothing new and it's getting slower and slower and slower. There are some scenes which quite funny ... at least made me laugh. Imran and Sonam have a very good chemistry. However, few scenes are too cheesy. Let me tell you, I am one of the cheesiest person whom you can ever meet and I love romantic movies a lot! Even me, I could't bear those scenes.
