Raavan – Mani Saar, welcome to Club R(gv/aavan), its your Aag!

Sigh! Never felt so bad, sad, sleepy and my (single) head spinning at the same time! Blame it on Raavan’s ten heads! But where were they ? Remained all inside Ratnam’s head only. First a confession – Its not a review. As usual, just some ramblings. Because a movie so bad and that too coming [...]

Raajneeti – Not a great film, not a Jha film, but what are we cribbing about ?

Thats what Fatema Kagalwala is wondering. I saw the film recently and came out of the theatre with mixed feelings. Happy, that its doing good at the box office.

Dear PJ, stop playing dirty & petty politics!

PJ – As a reviewer wrote, ” Perhaps Prakash Jha is just punning on his initials, and laughing at us all”. We thought its priceless and deserves to be QOTD!

BumChum (Short film script) – Give your feedback & help us decide!

Bollywood – its still a strange place. We still dont have any concept of “script readers” and giving feedback to a filmmaker means “you are supposed to say only good things” about his film.
