Ae Dil Hai Mushkil

The basic plot of Ae Dil Hai Mushkil looks like a collage of a few Ranbir Kapoor films like YJHD, Tamasha and the recent Nikhil Adwani film Katti Batti.

You just cant deny the technical brilliance or awesomeness the latest Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra film Mirzya has.

With all the clichés in the world about a… Continue reading A Flying Jatt

Mohenjo Daro

When you look at the extensive production design and the kind of blending of the one liner history of Mohenjo Daro, there is something in this film that asks for a little bit of an appreciation. But still the latest Ashutosh Gowariker film’s main drawback is its lack of a surprising story. From Gladiator to… Continue reading Mohenjo Daro
