OH, My God!!


After the stupendous success of “Bheja Fry” and "Dasvidaniya" Vinay Pathak returns in a lead role in this feel-good comedy “Oh My God”. Bollywood Movie Oh My God is produced by Amit Kapoor on behalf of Zee Limelight. The Movie is directed by Saurabh Srivastava. He has stepped into direction with this film.

Star cast of OH, My God :

Vinay Pathak - Rajendra Daubey is a simple man with big dreams and ambitions. He comes from a simple middle class family and wants to make it in life through his sheer and hard work. He is a hardcore fan of Dhirubhai Ambani and wants to become as success full as he was. He has a sweet wife Suman. Rajendra is a straightforward and focused and have a plan for everything in life. At times he is eccentric but his innocence and sweetness makes him lovable.

Saurabh Shukla - God is different from the usual God that we know. He is lovable, sweet and funny character. Like a normal person, he also gets bored and irritated of the world that he has created. In spite of being the almighty with special powers, he also gets confused with normal human-beings. but finally, he proves his smartness and intelligence making each and everyone say - "OH, My God!!"

Divya Dutta - Suman Dubey is Rajendra's wife. she is very sweet and simple lady. she is very happy in her life and Unlike rajendra, she is satisfied and has no big dreams. But apart from all, she stands by her husband and supports him in whatever he does and desires from his life. other than rajendra, Suman has full faith in God.


Harsh Chhaya - Shekhar


Gaurav Gera - Piddu



Story :

The story of "Oh, my God" resolves around a simple man Rajendra Dubey, a salesman with big dreams, a hard core Dhiru Bhai Ambani fan, who wants to make it big in life but through ethical ways. Suman Dubey is Rajendra's patient and loving wife, who stands by her husband at all times. As Rajendra continues to fail in his various money-making schemes, Suman pleads with God to help her husband. God tries to help Rajendra become successful but is constantly frustrated as Rajendra fails to recognise the opportunities. First-time director Sourabh Srivasatav tells a funny, touching story of a simple man who, with a little help from God, needs to come to terms with his big dreams and find balance in his life.

Nice morals, neat message, tedious film...Oh my God, is that really Vinay Pathak and Sourabh Shrivasta! Hard to believe, since the two actors have almost always delighted you with their slice-of-life portrayals. On the whole, as a debutant director Saurabh Srivastva has chosen a weak story to direct. Oh My God has a weak script and has a very slow pace in the beginning that tapers the effect to an extent. This is a onetime watch movie.

Sorry Bhai!!


After working together on films like My Brother Nikhil and Bas Ek Pal, the duo, Film-maker Onir and Sanjay suri, has launched new movie Sorry Bhai. Sorry Bhai is a comedy-romance movie. It is a love triangle but with a twist that has never before been seen in Hindi cinema. It is about falling in love with brother's fiancée. The starcast of movie is quite sweet that includes Sanjay Suri as Harshvardhan (Harsh), Sharman Joshi as Siddharth Mathur (sidd), Chitrangada Singh as Aaliyah, Boman Irani as Navin mathur and Shabana Azmi as Gayatri Mathur.

In Sorry Bhai, Navin, Gayatri, Harsh and sidd are members of a family. Sidd is perfact specimen of studious scientist. All the qualities, he has, makes him a boring person. But he has some interesting things too which makes difference for him. He's a big jazz freak and a saxophone player. Harsh is a simpler and uncomplicated brother of sidd. Ambitious and determined to become a success, he will stop at nothing to achieve his goal. Going to Mauritius on a scholarship makes him ever more ambitious and motivates to succeed. Navin Mathur, father of harsh and sidd, was a teacher by profession who loved his job and managed to stay clear of becoming excessively cynical. He liked people and was popular wherever he went. He is very cautious man towards his life. Last but not the least, Gayatri, mother of harsh and siddtharth, has become fairly comfortable in her equation with his husband. They usually chat like friends, drink beer together and play Scrabble. Navin avoids confrontations with Gayatri and she even enjoys his leg-pulling.

Apart from sweet family, there is another person in Sorry bhai who is Aaliyah. Aaliyah is a daughter of divorced-parents. She has grown up in Mauritius, in a Boarding school. Her parents are both married and with their kids now. She gets financially support from her divorced-parents. They even speak to her occasionally. Harsh came in her life like a blessing for her, someone she could finally call her own, someone who loved her and let her love him.

Now, Both Harsh and Aaliyah decides to marry. Therefore, attending their wedding, sidd travels to Mauritius along with his father and mother. Since Gayatri is angry at Harsh for deciding to get married without consulting them. On the other hand, Harsh, pre-occupied with work, can spend little time with his family and it is left to his fiancee Aaliyah to show them around Mauritius before the wedding. However, Ma's anger at Harsh ensures that she takes an instant dislike for Aaliyah, and it is Aaliyah and Siddharth who end up spending loads of time together. This, added to the fact that Aaliyah feels neglected by the career-obsessed Harsh, leads to them being irresistibly drawn to each other. A horrified Siddharth battles this attraction desperately, but Aaliyah has fallen madly in love and pursues him with single-minded determination. When Siddharth’s defences start crumbling and Ma starts getting suspicious, all hell breaks loose in the Mathur family…

Music of movie Sorry Bhai is composed by Music Director Gaurav Dayal and Vivek Philip.

Oye Lucky! Lucky Oye!


Oye lucky, lucky Oye is new release comedy-movie in the week from the makers of "KHOSLA KA GHOSLA". The film starring Abhay Deol as Lucky, Neetu Chandra as sonal and Paresh Rawal in lead roles is directed by Dibakar Banerjee. In the movie, Paresh Rawal plays 3 different roles as Lucky's Father, Gogi Bhai and Dr. Handa.

The story of movie Oye lucky, lucky Oye resolves around Lucky Singh who plays a lovable thief, someone who even the Delhi police are extremely fond of. He is from the inner city of Delhi who is like any ordinary middle-class boy with aspirations to fame and money. He chooses the not-so-legal route of attaining these - stealing. He is however, no ordinary thief; for him, stealing is an art and he enjoys perfecting his art with every assignment. His motto is 'Kamaao to zero, churaao to hero.' The film Oye lucky, lucky Oye is about him and his rise from a middle-class boy to one of the most-wanted thieves in Delhi. As a kid, there is little at home for Lucky except an alienated family and a dysfunctional relationship with his violent, bullying father. He is a keen observer of the world around him from his immediate surroundings his friends, dropouts, delinquents, petty criminals to the world he aspires to. Lucky comes from a dysfunctional family where he suffers the rage of his abusive father (Paresh Rawal). He chooses to focus on the lives of the rich kids around him who are blessed with all the material goods you can imagine - money, cars, gadgets etc. His strong point are his intelligence and lovably which he uses to its full impact and helps him to become more famous.

As his fame increases, he is approached by Gogi bhai (Paresh Rawal) who is a local gang leader who is a bandwallah by day. Gogi Bhai – a flamboyant musical bandleader who’s also a fence for stolen goods. A man who becomes a surrogate father. Now, Lucky rapidly rises to become Gogi’s star operator. Through him Lucky meets a host of characters who will define who he will become including Dolly, Gogi’s aggressive, hard bitten star dancer and her college going, quiet younger sister Sonal with whom he begins a tentative romance. Lucky’s journey develops him into a flamboyant playboy who now wants more than just the riches. Now he needs the respectability, the social standing of a city gentleman. Without sacrificing that reckless freedom he cherishes - the duality of having the freedom to steal.

As the makers of film Oye lucky, lucky Oye say themselves, this is only half the story, with the other half trying to figure out why a wealthy thief who has a long list of stolen riches on his name, wants to steal a teddy bear, a greeting card and a family portrait playing in the snow. The film is directed by Dibakar Banerjee of Khosla ka Ghosla fame, and music is by Sneha Khanwalkar. Sneha Khanwalkar has composed numbers that are heavily influenced by Punjabi music and beats for this interestingly titled film.
