Kurbaan will hit the screens on Nov.20

Kurbaan is an upcoming Bollywood flick that is directed by Rensil D’Silva. The movie is all set for it's release on 20th November, 2009. The movie is basically based on global terrorism.



The film features Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor in the lead roles, Om Puri, Vivek Oberoi, Rupindra Nagra, Dia Mirza, Kiron Kher and John Schuman.

Hiroo Yash Johar and Karan Johar have produced the film. Kurbaan is also an intense love story poured with thriller. It will have suspense, action and political comment all in one bag.

Kareena Kapoor will be doing a very bold role in Kurbaan. After doing films like Kambakht Ishq and Main Aurr Mrs Khanna Kareena has introduced herself her many new looks to surprise the audiences.

On the other hand, Saif Ali Khan will alos thrill his fans with his very unique and different role. Kurbaan is somehow similar to 2006 release Fanaa that starred Aamir Khan opposite Kajol.

We hope that Kurbaan creates magic on the box office !!!!

STOP

STOP is about four friends, three girls and a guy. The movie revolves around their lives as a unit and then steers off for an individual build-up. It's interesting in the beginning but before you know, it starts dragging. Songs are interspersed without need and plots lengthened, without any cause. The editor could have done with sharper scissors.

The star cast of the film are newcomer Rohit Bhatia, Dia Mirza, Tejaswini Kolhapure, Gauri Karnik, Ishita Arun, Kiran Janjani, Anupam Kher and Om Puri. The film is directed by Ajai Sinha.

The film attempts to be a modern day take on friendships amongst today’s youth. While the friendship chemistry amongst the four friends has come out naturally well and some small sequences and lines shared amongst them have come out very identifiable, the overall impact is missing.

Newcomer Rohit Bhatia makes a confident debut. Tejaswini Kolhapure impresses a lot despite having been badly presented. Ishita Arun and Gauri Karnik barely get scope to showcase their acting talents.

Dia Mirza in a small but important part is good. Harsh Chhaya is getting type cast in a lecherous boss roles. He has done similar type of parts earlier in Laga Chunari Mein Daag and Its Breaking News. Kiran Janjani fits the part. Himani Shivpuri, Om Puri and Anupam Kher lend able support as usual.

While the film may not exactly be worth a visit to the nearest multiplex, it isn’t that bad either and can be caught up on home video on one lazy Sunday afternoon to watch.

Rakeysh Mehra's Ode-Delhi6

Rakeysh Om Prakash Mehra is undoubtedly one of the finest storytellers that we have around. Delhi 6 is created out of a lot of love and a lot of pain, which comes across in the movie. The movie is produced by Ronnie Screwvala and Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra. The movie was released on February 20, 2009. The film casts Abhishek Bachchan as Roshan, Sonam Kapoor as Bittu who played the lead roles.

The movie makes an interesting start as it introduces multiple characters telling multi-track storytelling. After all, the movie is just a short trip, with a bit of sight-seeing thrown in. The middle part of the movie is difficult to understand that what’s the central lead is all about. However, it resolves all above conflicts in a single-stroke climax.

The core theme appears to be similar like Swades. While the screenplay remains cheerful in the first half. The art direction decently recreates the Delhi set in Rajasthan studio but is confined to four lanes at the Chandni Chowk crossroads.

The better performances come from the character-artist cast of Deepak Dobriyal, Atul Kulkarni, Vijay Raaz, Pawan Malhotra and Om Puri. Rishi Kapoor is pleasing but his character is too short-lived.

Rakeysh Mehra has connected very well with the audiences through his mesmerizing storytelling in Rang De Basanti . Sadly, Delhi-6 is quite colourless in that contrast.

Also, the end of the film, somehow does not seem to settle very well. The film, is in short, Rakeysh Mehra's ode to Delhi.
