This was announced by filmmaker Suneel Darshan, who headed the film federation of India jury to select the film in Mumbai on Friday. "It is a film that is extremely close to my heart. It first sensitised me as a parent and as a person and then went on to have the same effect on the audiences in India and across the globe," Aamir, who is shooting in Ladakh for Raj Kumar Hirani's 3 Idiots , said.

Saas Bahu Aur Madness!

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)
Unbelievable, but then that's Bollywood for you as Saas Bahu Aur Sensex -- written and directed by Shona Urvashi -- proves once again that anything is possible in dreamland.

See elastic strap manufacturer website.

The agonising 140-odd minutes of the film is a tale about a Parsi stock broker Firoze Sethna (Farooq Sheikh), who is 'rude and insensitive', oomphy Mrs Binita Sen (Kirron Kher) and a gaggle of women. Speaking of oomph, there seems to be an abundance of it here whether its older ladies like Lillete Dubey (playing the protagonist Ankur's Sindhi mother), Sharon Prabhakar (playing Punjabi-mouthing ribaldrous housewife who urges you not to miss the 'r ' in her last name Brar) or the younger and of course, scantily clad women led by Tanushree Datta and Masumeh Makhija.

"BJP had film stars and television artistes coming to the party but I have realised considerable talent of cricketer, commentator, parliamentarian and above all, anchor Navjot Singh Siddhu had the talent to become such a good actor. He has livened up things in film Mera Pind-My Home by his sheer presence," Advani said, after watching the film.

That was the best film on terrorism. Now, Siddhu ji has done an excellent job with this one," he said. Mera Pind  has been produced with joint title as a large number of audiences live abroad, Siddhu explained to rediff.com in his own unique style. Others present at the event were Rajnath Singh, Sushma Swaraj, Vijay Kumar Malhotra, Vijay Goel and former chief minister of Haryana Om Prakash Chautala.

Between 1988 and 2000, I was into advertising. Then I gave it all up to write a novel,  Local. In 2001, I wrote a film script for a friend, who was a film student in New York and had come to India to make a film. It got shelved due to lack of finance. The script was passed on to another director. He kept it for a year and a half, but he had financial troubles too.

In Thaavalam, he is Sivan, a roadside cobbler and a single parent of a girl child in a nondescript township.

See elastic strap supplier website.

The film begins like any other Suresh Gopi film; that is, with action. Sivan saves a 'damsel in distress' Kanakam (Sindhu Menon) from the clutches of hooligans. He is an orphan who survives on menial jobs like helping the nearby teashop owner Panniker (Nedumudi Venu), (who treats him like a family member) and repairing footwear. Panniker takes the initiative to get Sivan and Kanakam married. But, Sivan's marital bliss ends as Kanakam dies during childbirth. Sivan is further tormented by the fear of the goons returning to take their revenge.

And because it is for a 'special someone' in her brother's life, Saba's putting a lot of thought into it. "I would love to make her something. But the deadline is too soon. I will need time as it has to be a gorgeous piece," she confesses. That may mean that Kareena will not receive Saba's creation on September 21, when she celebrates her birthday. Instead, Saba hopes it will be ready by New Year. The matter of Saba's appointment will come up for acceptance before the Waqf board in mid-September. If she does become naib mutawalli , she will be in line to succeed her father. If and when that happens, she could be the first woman in the country to assume the head of an Auqaf-e-Shahi since the end of the princely era.

With almost a fresh cast, barring Vamsi Krishna (one of the heroes of Happy Days ), Kanmani approaches this subject in a light and to some extent, a humorous way but also brings out the negative side of it and throws in some sermons towards the end. Krishna (Vamsi Krishna) hails from a village but manages to get a job at a call centre in Hyderabad thanks to his friend Srinivas who works there. He joins it along with his dear childhood friend Swati (debutante Priyanka). Krishna lives in an apartment along with his friends and colleagues Srinivas, Mallinka, Munna. Swati lives in a girls' hostel.

I said it is not uncommon for journalists to turn up early for a much discussed film at the film festival -- in this case, the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF). By the time I reached,  there were already more than 100 people in the line. By the time the film started, every seat at the 580-seat theatre was taken, and there were more than 50 reporters waiting outside. They were hoping to grab a seat in case people walked out a few minutes after the film started (not an unusual occurrence at the film festivals that screen half a dozen films simultaneously starting around 9 am). But there were no walkouts, and the film -- about a teenager from the slums, who becomes a champion of the Indian version of Who Wants to be a Millionaire and immaterially arouses the suspicion of a police inspector -- received a rapturous applause. Twice.

Ankith, Pallavi, Sunil, Raja and Gopi are a group of friends just out of college. Rather Ankith (Nikhil Siddarth) has flunked graduation but aspires to be a musician. He is totally steeped in music and hopes to make an album one day. He is a guy who believes in luck and destiny.

Pallavi (Meghha Burman) believes in hard work in achieving success. She works in a software firm. Raja has done his MBA but wants to do social work. Gopi wants to go the USA and lead a good life there. Sunil wants to turn a businessman. Agreed the movie is about happiness (according to the director) and how to find it in life but there are perhaps more interesting ways of doing so.

Who Hijacked the script?

I could stop there, say that debutant filmmaker Kunal Shivdasani (who has shot many ad films) mistook style for substance and gave a roomful of critics several unintentional belly laughs, exhort you to not watch this film and we could move on. But you clicked through to get a review and a review is what you will get even though a movie isn't necessarily what I got.

Hijack opens on a botched attempt to liberate dreaded terrorist Rasheed (a shaven-headed KK Raina dressed in inexplicable Guantanamo Bay orange when we first see him) while he was being transported, presumably from one prison to another. The Home Minister is made aware that Rasheed's people may have failed but they will definitely try again. ), an aircraft maintenance officer, who has a too-cutesy-by-far daughter, and a history. A history that involves the death of his wife, total upheaval in his life and his having reconciled himself to living life as a man who maintains aircrafts in a middle-of-nowhere airport in Chandigarh.

An appreciation of Pixar's Wall-E

mega opening from 2001: A Space Odyssey -- the captain struggles manfully to his feet. As he places his chubby toes on the ground and straightens his back, the moment is one of rejuvenated human hope and strength, of man against the machines, of undying faith.

And, of humour. Because under all that glorious subtext, this is just a fat guy coming to his feet. With a success-streak that drives every other studio in Hollywood up the wall, Pixar has constantly topped itself, and while we all have our favourites among their animated pantheon, Stanton's latest is Pixar's most ambitious project by far -- a sparsely-verbalised sci-fi tale, halfway bleak, significantly satirical, alarmingly real in its view of a flubbed-up future, and a robotic love story -- and by Walt, they pull it off so bloody marvellously.

If that reads like enough talent to outfit a medium budget Bollywood offering, the storyline is straight out of the Hindi film playbook. Not to spill spoiler beans, but Thurman plays a radio talk show host who makes a fetish of being sensible and mature, and is duly in a relationship with the very conventional Firth. Then she finds that she is married to a friendly neighbourhood fireman she doesn't even recall meeting -- and, as her wedding approaches, finds to her horror that said bloke, with his trademark joie de vivre is actually very attractive. How to resolve the tangle? Who to get the girl? Wait and see; also wait and see which Bollywood director is the first to get 'inspired'.

Get in line for Wanted

Wanted has barely anything to do with Mark Millar's fantastic comic book miniseries. While the series -- and a couple of characters -- share the same name, lets just say the comic was about supervillains, while the movie features a self-proclaimed gang of avenging assassins. And that the comic made sense, plotwise.
