Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Lightdeossk Captivating movie !
Beanbioca As Good As It Gets
Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
Vonia Guzaarish (2010) (Urdu, meaning Request) Director: Sanjay Leela Bhansali Watched: 8/2/18 Rating: 7/10 Ornate costumes/sets, Magical realism aced- Stunning visual treat. Mixed acting merit- Compelling but overdone; Works for song/dance acts. Too long/clashing themes- Drama/laughs/musical? Comedic slant fails. Deft narrative shows Both sides to euthanasia- But "Hinglish" hinders. Less than the sum of its parts, But plus dazzling magic shows! Haiku Sonnets are comprised of 4 3-line haiku plus a couplet of either 5 or 7 syllables, adding up to 14 lines, the same number of lines found in a sonnet. (5-7-5, 5-7-5, 5-7-5, 5-7-5, 7-7/5-5) Notes: Bhansali has been accused of borrowing or even plagiarizing from the unpublished novel "Summer Snow" (by Indian writer Dayanand Rajan) and the films "The Prestige" and "Mar Adentro". I personally agree with this last one; having noticed similarities that are almost eerie, making it difficult to believe that it is coincidental. "Mar Adentro" ("The Sea Inside") is a 2004 Spanish film starring Javier Bardem. A far superior film for a multitude of reasons, I highly recommended it as an alternative. #HaikuSonnet #PoemReview #Controversy #Euthanasia #Indian #MagicalRealism #Magician #Quadriplegic
Takethispunch Ethan Mascarenhas (Hrithik Roshan) is a former magician who is a quadriplegic. He becomes the Radio Jockey of an FM Station called Radio Zindagi. His show spreads magic, hope, and laughter through his irrepressible wit and humor to every listener and caller, making it difficult to imagine that this is a man who has been immobilized with a spinal injury for the last fourteen years of his life. Sofia D'Souza (Aishwarya Rai) is his nurse who has been accompanying him for the past twelve years.
sanjay-sampath I am watching this movie after 5 years. Somehow, th topic of a paraplegic seemed dark and depressing and therefore I avoided watching this movie. But this movie is not about pontificating on paraplegics. It is about the best looking actor in Mumbai coming on his own in a role that celebrates a once great life and now remains a pale shadow of his great past - and suffers immensely while fighting through his day to day challenges, being dependent on someone. I salute Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Aishwariya and most importantly Hrithik for his best role ever. Overall the movie grabs your attention for the entire run and one feels that there could have been a little more definition around the Siddiqui character and his father. Highly recommended.
DeepSarmah When I first watch Guzaarish, I loved it....but recently I came across "The Sea Inside", a Spanish movie and I am so sorry to say that "Guzaarish" looks like a copy from this movie. The Storyline for "The Sea Inside" follows like this and its in IMDb too: "Life story of Spaniard Ramon Sampedro (Hrithik), who fought a 30-year campaign to win the right to end his life with dignity. Film explores Ramon's relationships with two women: Julia (The Lawyer friend), a lawyer who supports his cause, and Rosa (Our "Ash"), a local woman who wants to convince him that life is worth living. Through the gift of his love, these two women are inspired to accomplish things they never previously thought possible. Despite his wish to die, Ramon taught everyone he encountered the meaning, value and preciousness of life. Though he could not move himself, he had an uncanny ability to move others." I know lot of Indian film maker copy (or so called "Inspire") from foreign films, but I was always under the impression that Mr. Bhansali makes original films. Its not true anymore I guess. And we always wonder why lot of beautiful Indian movies never make it to the "Oscars"???
