The characters that were so well defined and real in the original Sarkar, have been completely f&^ked up in this film, by none other than Mr. Ram Gopal Verma himself.

Well, I know that I choose to watch what I do, and then review those which I choose to review. So I had decided that I was going to watch ‘Woodstock Villa’ for one reason only – there was a buzz about Anupam and Kiron Kher’s son Sikander Kher making his debut. With all fairness, I said to myself ‘it is in his genes.

Ah, ha!! Don’t judge my review by just reading the heading. The film works for me, in pockets. There are brave moments, good direction moments, absolutely fine acting by one of the actors, a brave screen-play, beautiful love story (I will explain why I stated this). So then why the ‘hhhmmm’ you ask? Read on. I’ll take a bow as I let you in to read my humble review.

Alright my fellow cine-goers, pop-corn eating, cola sipping folks, who so well keep alive the business of cinema. Thank you. Nope, I’m not being corny in the slightest.

Ok here it is, the year’s first big release. And when I say big, trust me I mean BIG. The canvas is humongous, specially the first war scenes within the first half hour. Very sleek, never seen before visuals in Bollywood. Think on the lines of TROY. Yes every frame is straight out of a Sanjay Leela Bhansali film, in terms of visuals. Ah, but before I start my review, let me tell you one thing.. I have a major problem with the length of the film.

Here at RS we have decided on making our reviews and articles a little different than other websites. For Tagore’s review of Halla Bol we are offering an Audio version only.

Thank you Amole and thanks you Aamir for touching lives. You might not be able to change this world, but you will surely touch the lives of the people that will see this film.

Well I watched Dus Kahaniyan. Before I get into the review let me state this. I am sure you know people who are nothing but ‘wanna-bes’.

A lot happened to us all, after the 9/11 incident. No, don’t worry, this is not another film about 9/11. This film is about the world after 9/11. This film is also about the line that draws the difference between ‘religion’ and ‘faith’.

Remember the era when Manmohan Desai made all those films with Mr. Bachchan? Well that was a certain era. Mr. Manmohan made films that fitted into that era, that mould of cinema. Today we have a similar pattern, wherein we have the likes of Farah Khan who will make films with the King Khan and that is her only saving grace.
