Ila! You sound very cheeful being ill! I too liked Jodha Akbar. I actually watched it in a zilion parts, so its length didn’t bother me. It felt like watching a soap. They looked like a very cute though unlikely king and queen together and yes, good chemistry.

Why did the office gang beat you up for Oye Lucky? It was funny enough dialogue.

Not sure if I’ve seen Mausam. it sounds jolly familiar… In fact up until a few weeks ago, I didn’t see ANY movies. Then I decided to see a bunch as an experiment.

Hey Mala,

Even though painfully long, I also enjoyed Jodha Akbar. Sigh! Methinks Ash has more chemistry with him than Junior B.

Oye Lucky was Banti & Babli revisited (only it was Banti & Banti). No one knows how he gets away with anything and everything, why Paresh Rawal played 100 diff roles n his insipid love affair on the side. I’ve seen Abhay Deol do better. And guess what??? Me n Ajit took big office gang for it … and they almost beat us to pulp!

Sorry Bhai was refreshing. Loved Chitrangada.

Next, do an old flick. My all-time fav is Mausam. Can lend it to you. It’s elegant and shot beautifully. Nothing Bollywood about it. And you will cry with Sanjeev Kumar in one scene. Somewhere mid-way in the film.

Enjoy!

Oh Jyoti, don’t write of those films because of my rude reviews. For Dostana you do have to be in a silly mood. Dasvidanya is a bit juvenile and simplistic, but it’s also harmless. Doesn’t give you an outright headache or anything. Fashion is watchable in patches, just to see how they’re portraying the dahling fashion world in Mumbai.

Loved the reviews. I’d Fashion/Dostana/Dasvidaniya on my list and now I’m not sure. Oye Lucky was fun for its Tilak Nagar atmosphere and Abhay Deol. Was looking forward to Dasvidaniya for Vinay Pathak now don’t know if I should bother.

Interesting you should have chosen the old Meera. There’s a new one out called Meerabai Not Out!

Look forward to the review of Mississipi Burning

Enjoyed reading! Also got a few ideas on how to write. Where did you watch the movies if not in the hall. Even I want to watch a few out of these.

Thanks.
