Details

 
  

Nikhil Advani has given some really big disappointments in last 10 years or so i.e. 'Salaam E Ishq', 'Chandani Chowk To China', 'Patiala House'. And now for some strange reasons he has got responsibility of re - launching career of his own and Imran Khan with best actress of current time Kangana Ranaut.

Rishi Kapoor plays a Mr Bhalla, who runs a bakery in a hill station called Kasol. He is never seen to be baking anything. All he does is to yell and shout at his wife, and sonny boy Inder (played by Supriya Pathak and Abhishek Bachchan, respectively). Why? That’s a mystery.

Ms Pathak is to be found in an ‘ashram’, looking vacantly about. Abhishek switches locations from a Bangkok poolside with bikinied babes to the winding roads of Kasol, where he encounters college-mate Nimmi (Asin, colourless) who has feelings for him. Why anyone would have a tender spot for someone as indifferent as Inder is an even bigger mystery.

Up pops a long-haired goon called Cheema who’s only job is to twirl a gun, and threaten people. Why the talented Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub took on this thankless part is a … yes, you got that. It’s a puzzle.

Plot? Non-existent. The jokes? Screamingly unfunny. Rishi Kapoor doing ‘su-su’, singing ‘aiyi-aiyi-aiyi’? Groan. When will grown men wanting to urinate stop becoming an acceptable gag in Bollywood? Can someone solve this? It’s always good to see Supriya Pathak, but when will someone come up with a substantial part for her?

Film has nothing new to offer. It is heavily inspired form '500 Days Of Summer' (few shots are photocopy) and then story takes some twists in last 30 minutes. Film takes off with shots of Maddy (Imran Khan) madly searching for his lady love Payal (Kangana Ranaut) and then few flashbacks, fall in love, rom -com and a couple of quirky dialogues and then there is a classic twist of romantic genre in the end - that's  the new Nikhil Advani film for you. One should not expect great or different things in this genre but having Kangana Ranaut as lead but focusing so much on Imran might be Aamir's choice but no one else is interested in this scenario. 

Performance

 Kangana Ranaut is simply outstanding as she looks funny in 1st half and intense in 2nd with equal ease. Imran Khan is still in 'Break Ke Baad' mode and fails to recover from few disasters in last couple of years. Vivan Bhatena and Nicole Faria make no headway in acting t. 

Film has decent screenplay but overall story is cliche plus ineffective dialogues are big minus . Film has sharp editing by Maahir Zaveri, a guy to watch out for. Music is average except one hit song 'Lip To Lip'. Cinematography is average and production design is perfect. 

 Director Nikhil Advani again falters and falters big time with such a poor and direction. He fails to extract performances from Imran Khan and continues to deliver half hearted shallow films. 

Final verdict

 This movie is overall below average 
and doesn't even deserve to be called as "one time watch".

Movie review : Bajrangi Bhaijan

Movie Review : Bajrangi Bhaijan 

Director: 

Kabir Khan 

Starcast 

 Salman Khan , Kareena Kapoor Khan , Nawazuddin sidduqui, Harshaali, Om puri 

Critic rating : 4/5 **** 

Business rating :4/5 **** 

Pluses : 

For getting a bumper opening its enough to be a Salman Khan movie. Outstanding performance of Nawazuddin siddiqui . And the trump card for the movie is the charm of Harshali in the extreme 

Minuses : 

Movie is slow in first half . Some unnecessary dialogues. And long stretched chicken song. 

Plot

 Bajrangi Bhaijan is a story of six year old pakistani girl who is lost in India . She finds a kind hearted man Pawan who is devotee of Bajrangbali. By the various acts and efforts , he discovers that the girl is from Pakistan . He goes ro a visa agent who ensures to send her back. But when he chases the agent to gift bangles to her little friend, he gets shocked to see him selling the girl in a slut area. And that is the scene where Salman's eyes are full of tears and so will be the your to these kind of monsters in our society on screen. Then our hero decides to go Pakistan and find her home at any cost.

 Details : This time after a long , Salman Khan is not playing a larger than life role where he smashes crowd of hundreds . His character is of a common man with a super strong will power and honesty. Everytime the girl smiles , the whole audience will smile and they will cry when she cries. There are a lot of scenes where you can get emotional and tears will be running down on the cheeks. The chemistry of Salman and Harshali Is amazing and makes you feel good. 

Performances:

 Little Harshali is the main flamboyance of the movie. Her excessive cuteness and charismatic expressions makes this movie a complete Harshali's show. Her character is dumb and doesn't have dialogues but still she is the gem of the movie.

 Salman Khan looks a bit tired and shows low energy in some of the starting scenes. But some scenes where he is in his signature style are praiseworthy. This time it seems that Salman has worked hard for a perfect emotional This movie may be considerd as one of his lifetime best but his acting can't. 

Nawazuddin is a surprise package , he appears on the screen later in the 2nd half but once he is on the screen, you can't stop yourself clapping for his performance. If we only talk about the 2nd half, his role is stronger than that of Salman. 

Kareena Kapoor has nothing special to do . Her role doesn't add much to the script , but being a Bollywood movie her role is important to give a romantic touch to movie. Music: Kawallis are the backbone of the music of Bajrangi Bhaijan. Background score is excellent and perfect in every situation. 

Final verdict : 

This movie is much more better than the recent Salman khan movies Kick, Ek tha tiger , Dabbang 2 and jai ho etc. And you will definitely like it. This movie can also be tagged as a must watch .

Movie review : Bahubali the beginning

Movie review : Bahubali the beginning

Director :

 SS Rajamouli

Starcast : 

 Prabhas , Rana Daggubati , Tamannah Bhatia , Anushka Shetty , Sathyaraj , Sudeep (cameo)

Critic rating : 4.5/5 ****'

 

 Business rating : 4.5/5 ****'

 

 Pluses :

 Big names in starcast and their terrific performances , amazing special effects strong storyline and massive dialogues.

Minuses :

 The only mistake I found was in the scene where Prabhas is pulling the rope but rope is not tight

Story :

 Better you watch it rather than searching for the movie plot. 

Details. 

The film is a perfectly bundled masterpiece of melodies numbers , power packed action sequences, romantic and emotional moments . Each and every scene is worthy and creditable. A scene where Tamannah tries to kill Prabhas but he efficiently seduces her. The strip tease scene will kill the sensitive viewer inside you and you'll find yourself whistling like a overexcited flake. 
The war techniques shown in the movie will force You to scream like the winner of ICC world cup.
 Director Rajamouli has proved that he is really a creative monster. After his flicks Magadheera and Makhi this is something really exceptional concerning to current india film industry's scenario .

 

Performances:

 Prabhas has proved trustingness to the belief of Rajamouli on him. Rana Daggubati's powered performance makes him the perfect choice for villain. Tamannah has delivered the best of her career and Anushka impresses even in a non glamorous role. Sathyaraj will win your heart with his praiseworthy act in role of katappa. Rest of the starcast is also applaudable.

 Final verdict : 

This movie is a must watch show. Don't miss it and go to a theatre nearby and enjoy this yet to be complete evangelistic journey of thrills and spills and then start waiting for its next part Bahubali: The conclusion .

 Thanks for reading

10 effective ways to turn strangers into your friends

It happens several times that we are travelling in a bus and suddenly an attractive person sits with us. We want to have a conversation with them  but feel too much shy to do that.
so friends here i am going to share with u 10 effective ways to turn the strangers into your friends .

1. Don't be shy , say hii                                                               

It sounds so obvious, but it’s the first big barrier. You have to be willing to put yourself out there to start a conversation.

I noticed that people are welcoming after you break the ice. It’s not something that everyone wants to do because it takes some courage to go up to someone you’ve never met before and start a conversation. However, more people are welcoming than we generally expect. When you encounter someone who isn’t, remember that someone else will be.

2. Smile Please                                                                     

Smiling gives a good first impression. Practice in the mirror. Then smile to the world.

I noticed that people relaxed themselves when I smiled first. When I continued smiling throughout the conversation, they smiled back and really opened themselves up to deeper conversation.

3. Don't think about their thinking                                               

This is your life, and you have the right to talk to whomever you want to talk to. Not everyone is that open. Allow them to be how they and think how they do, without letting it challenge your courage.

4. Don't take rejection personally                                            

If they reject you, it isn’t about you. It’s about where they are at mentally, so don’t take it personally. If they passed up on the opportunity to connect with you, then they missed out on something great.

5. Do the dare                                                                           

One of the best ways to combat the fear is to do it repeatedly. Push through the fear and it will start to feel more natural.

The fear may never fully subside, but if you continue to battle through it, the momentum you create will be more powerful than the remaining fear. For example, when I feel terrified of approaching someone, I think back to a calming moment or a moment that made me laugh. Then, the fear didn’t feel so daunting anymore.

6. Practice makes a man perfect 

Don’t worry if you seem a little awkward  at first. If your intentions are authentic, you will come across that way more and more each time you try.

It’s just like any other skill where it gets easier with practice. A few of my first conversations with strangers felt scary and awkward, but they didn’t do any harm. It made me learn what I needed to work on.

7. Treat them as they are your friends

This way you’ll treat them that way instead of seeming awkward—and being comfortable around someone is the best way to start a new friendship.

8. Make them laugh.

Laughter makes the conversation fun and joyful. People enjoy talking with others who make them laugh. So get out of your head and don’t take anything too seriously—just have fun with it!

9. Ask about them

Talk about their interests, opinions, and ideas. Then respond to what they share.

The best way to keep someone interested in a conversation is to show an interest in their life. Everyone likes to talk about themselves. Even if you don’t know a lot about a particular subject, keep asking questions to understand them.

10. Find out about their  passion.

If you see their eyes light up when they talk about something, ask more questions about that.

If you find a keyword that helps you figure out their interest, try to talk about that. For example, if I asked “How’s the weather?” They say, “It’s nice that it’s foggy since. It’s better to run in it.” Then you can go ahead and talk about running.

So what are you waiting for guys . Follow these steps and go out for a practice today& make some new friends.  best of luck.

Secret Of Success

                                     Being Bachelor 

It is very often to hear that behind every successful man there is a woman .Here I am not going  to say anything regarding the relation of mother /sister/daughter etc. If you think that the proverb refers to ‘a wife’ then this article is specially for you.

I don’t know what success exactly means but I think success is the stage when we are satisfied with our work, and  other people consider our work appreciable . Success gives name , fame and even love game .

So here I am going to share a tip for achieving success.  The tip is …..stay single … . this thought may seem stupid to you but this is the  factor that I found  common in the persons who exactly define the term success.  

Now I would like to give the examples of some of the successful persons... oh sorry .....successful bachelors.

Starting from the top most person in  India, The President. Whenever we have a comparison between our all former and current presidents, almost 95%Indians think about Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam . Have u ever heard about his wife !!! obviously no , because he is a bachelor. He didn’t get married. And see how successful he is! Not only as a president but also as a scientist he has achieved great heights . I hope there is no need to talk about his achievements as a scientist, it is obviously well known to everyone. His success made him the deserving candidate, and he got the biggest pride of india Bharat Ratna award.

After president , if we talk about our former prime ministers  who is considered the best. Obviously  the name is Atal Bihari Bajpayee  . Same like Dr. Kalam , he is also bachelor .  Recently he was also given the pride of Bharat Ratna.

Hope now my statement is no more stupid for you . But it is just beginning . I have a lot of such examples.

Now from entertainment world, The industry is ruled by 3 Khans. Among three Khans, Mr. perfectionist , Khing khan and the one and only Sallu bhai. Amir and Sharukh are superb but Bhai has become the god of silver screen in India. No  other actor has such a crazy fan following . And if we talk in terms of box office collections, salman has given the most 100 cr club movies. I know, there is no need to talk about his relationship status .

Now I”ll take you to the corporate world of India . whenever we talk about the industrialists we use the term ‘Tata  - Birla’. let’s talk about Tata the most reputed brand of India. And who is the most reputed industrialist ??………99% of Indians will say Rattan Tata. Recently when Obama visited our country , top of our industrialists met him . They stood in a queue waiting for their meeting . Do u know who was leading the queue…. Bachelor  Rattan Tata 

After these examples if we will talk about our current prime minister  Mr. Narendra Modi . He got married to Jashodhaben at the age of 18 years(He was engaged at the age of 13). His married life lasted just for 3 months . Then he left house and looked forward toward success.  Now he is the one of the most famous youth icon of India.

 Now I think most of the readers are thinking about being bachelor throughout the life  .

Yuvraj Singh The hero of world cup winning India team,is also bachelor .he is a successful cricketer  and is also a great example of determination. He defeated cancer and made himself fit for playing internationals again.

Now one moe example from B’town . One of the biggest name of industry the director producer fashion designer karamn Johar He is still bachelor, and also successful.

Now a few examples from the history ; Swami Vivekanand who who represented Indi on international level. You must have heard a lot of motivating incidents of his life. He was also bachelor.

  

Bal Brahamchari Swami Dayanand ,Founder of Arya Smaj ; Beside his social life he was owner of a great physique. He was a freedom fighter a social worker and religious leader.

Whenever we are doing some physically tough task , what we say to raise our morale……Jai Bajrang Bali ……The God of power,the body builder Hanuman Ji. He was also a bachelor .

So I think these examples are quite enough to motivate You for being single 

No No No ..plz don’t get motivated otherwise who will increase the population 

These were my point of views, but even I Don’t  want to be bachelor throughout my life 

But on the other hand we can not ignore these facts 

It may be a just a coincidence … so ,all the readers are requested to take any kind of decision using their own brain……

***** In future if Yuvraj ,Salman and Karan Johar will get married , then their failure will not be my responsibility
