Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!
Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
Yash Wade Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
braddugg A roller coaster fun ride film that has many good moments.I liked it primarily for the treatment. It's a story that has some clues from yesteryear's DON but was treated completely differently and more realistically. Kudos to the director Rajat Kapoor for having the courage to put this up.Ranvir Shorey shows many facets of his acting capabilities here. He is simply brilliant and endearing. As the film moves, his character evolves and thus it grew on me. Of others, Naseeruddin Shah was at ease with his character. Saurabh Shukla plays his role effortlessly. A host of others gather to make this film a watch just for their acting. The best part of the film is the cast in itself. The cast that has tremendous acting abilities. The cinematography was good, if not great. What was shown was adequately done. The editing was superb. Considering this as 1 hour 50 minutes film, all the unnecessary things are chopped off. No uncalled for songs and no heroic fights. It's simply put and well compiled.The writing is terrific. With showing small cultural differences to major mindset exchanges, the film deals with many aspects without any hype and hoopla. The simplicity comes to the foray as a saving grace and it indeed is the big positive of this film.Thanks to writers Rajat Kapoor and Saurabh Shukla for having written it so exceptionally well. Also, thanks to producers for having the courage to bring it on screen. If not for anything, just watch it for Ranvir Shorey. A 4.5 for this brilliant film. http://braddugg.blogspot.in/
Pinto Chaudhari Mithya,a movie directed by Arindam Chaudhuri,who is generally called as a Management Guru and known as the best marketing guru.This is the best movie i have seen.If I talk about the story,The movie is about VK (Ranvir Shorey) is a jugadoo junior artist who lives from day to day. He is working as an extra on a movie which stars Sonam (Neha Dhupia). Not surprisingly, VK likes Sonam from afar. However, his existence is very peripheral and after one really bad day he decides to go to the seaside with his adhia of whiskey and a glass that comes free with it. He finds himself witnessing a shootout between two rival gangs. He goes to the police and finds the gang of Gavde (Naseeruddin Shah) on his tail. He is abducted and finds that he is the spitting image of Raje, the rival Don. Gavde plans to kill Raje and implant VK in his place, to finish the gang from inside.
Ronak Soni Mithya is a movie directed by Rajat Kapoor and as a viewer i love the work done by him as a director.The story of the film is very different and its after a very long time that I saw a film like this one. Ranveer Shorey has given a brilliant performance. Mithya is a film that has all ingredients of entertainment and can be called a complete entertainment. Mithya is a story about an unemployed actor VK (playd by Ranvir Shorey) whose life takes a sudden turn when it is discovered that his face resembles that of a powerful don Rajeh (again played by Ranvir Shorey). The movie starts on a wonderful pace with some funny sequences thrown in. A memorable one is where the some henchmen try to take out a snap of VK. It must be watched because there are not many such movies in Hindi cinema.
Piyas Banerjee We've had a lot of movies of late that signify a promising future, and this one carries forward the future of Bollywood. Directed beautifully by Rajat Kapoor (who was also involved with Bheja Fry), this movie is all you want a movie to be- Crisp storyline, brilliant acting, entertaining dialogues, and riveting as a whole. Ranvir Shorey revels in the lead role, very smoothly fitting into the roles of V.K. the actor and Raje the Don, and he gets even better when he's playing both the roles in the same body! He is truly a great actor, and if this is the direction Bollywood chooses to take, then he will be at the helm of it. Vinay Pathak as usual gives a dedicated performance, funny with the tinge of darkness. His buddy is also fantastic, and his dialogue delivery and accent are hilarious. All in all, an excellent experience, and the last line of the movie makes you realise, that its not just a dark comedy.
