new movie, Jashnn

Adhyayan Suman (Akash Verma)

Akash is a struggling musician who lives on his singular dream of stardom. Supporting him in his quest for fame and success are three band members, who share his vision as well as his tribulations. Akash's troubles are compounded by a turbulent home environment. An orphan, he is supported (financially) by his sister, who bears the ignominy of being mistress to a very wealthy and powerful man. At a glance, Akash is a typical 20-year old-hot-headed, brash, romantic. What sets his character apart, though, is an unusual maturity, which unfolds in the film. The audience can literally watch Akash growing up in the film - from a frivolous young boy to a man of responsibility, who has had to endure much. Worth special mention here is Akash's innocence and charm, which remains intact till the end, despite it all. The strength of his character comes alive in the climactic scene, where nothing can move the man he has become. Even stardom, which he does achieve in the end, sits lightly on his shoulders. The heart melts as he forgets and forgives all, a picture of serenity...

Anjana Sukhani (Sara)

Sara brings a whiff of spring; she is the fresh summer breeze in the film! Full of spunk, Sara wears a don't care attitude on her sleeve and easily makes Akash fall in love with her. But before you can dismiss her as a frivolous eye candy, Sara takes in the screen by storm, supporting Akash through his struggles, keeping his faith alive himself amid all hopelessness. Respect for Sara's character grows when she doesn't hesitate twice to shun the riches of her family (opposed to her relationship with Akash) to be by Akash's side, making her home in a dilapidated garage with her love. Sara almost overshadows the character Akash at times owing to her never say die attitude, most poignant being the time when she sticks to her cause even when Akash deserts her! Sara makes you cheer 'go girl'!

Shahana Goswami (Nisha)

Jashnn It would be rare if one can come up with a recent parallel in Bollywood to the tragedy of Nisha's character. In a nutshell, she can easily be summed up as a pitiable whore, who survives on the largesse doled out by her benefactor. Pity, however, begins to give way to compassion for the character of Nisha, as one discovers her love for the man in her life to be greater that the need for him. One almost discovers the meaning of unconditional love afresh as Nisha's feelings for her man remain steadfast in spite of countless rejections and humiliations. While she always cites the reason of need (economic as well as emotional) upon her brother's protestations about her scandalous relationship, a careful observer would put her deep yeaming to nothing less than love. The strength of her character especially comes alive during her intense period of struggle, when she is forsaken by her loved ones and shunned by the world. The level of her endurance seems highly unnatural at times, but her suffering keeps it real... The audience suffers with her and commends her on every act of survival against extreme odds and rejoices when she can muster enough strength to say no to the very man whom she was ready to do anything at all.

Humayun Saeed (Aman Bajaj)

Dashing and charismatic, this is one negative character you find to hate! Playing Nisha's man and Akash's enemy on screen, Aman's character seeks to explore a whole new way in which we view the bad guy in Bollywood! Even though black is his favourite colour in the film, Aman's character exudes shades of grey, where the thin line between right and wrong often seems blurred... playing a powerful tycoon, whose aura screams 'don't mess with me!' the subtlety with which Aman's character is portrayed seems tailor-made for an actor of Humayun Saeed's Finesse. While the exploitative, vindictive streak in Aman is hard to forgive, one does experience flashes of empathy as he undergoes his own moments of loss and regrets. More so with his self-reproaching speech in the end, tears streaming down his face, making the character of Aman awash in white, his dark, good looks notwithstanding!

Synopsis

On every street in every home, somewhere in India, there is a 'nobody' who wants desperately to be a 'somebody'. Jashnn is the story of one such nobody...

Jashnn Akash Verma, a twenty year old Indian lad, thirsts to become a singing icon that can blaze a trial for himself among the galaxy of existing stars. But though he has dreams in his heart, he has been unable to find that distinctive voice that he can call his own, that will propel him to the top. Only when he's shattered by life and unflinchingly looks at the sordid truth straight in the face - that he is freeloading off his elder sister Nisha, who, in order to offer him a decent life style, has become the mistress of a rich businessman, Aman Bajaj; is he is able to touch his inner core.

Call it irony or a twist of fate, but the person who sees him through this dark night and mentors him when he's down and out is none other than the sister of the person who he hates most in the world...Aman Bajaj. It is Sara, Aman's sister, who makes him realize that he is an extremely talented man who is simply going through a bad phase and that the biggest crime a human being can commit, is to give up on himself.

Spurred by life's bittersweet lessons, and Sara's genuine love and support, Akash, in the harshest winter of his life discovers an invincible summer within himself...thereby discovering his own voice. With this very special tune which has been soaked with the passion of his lived life, he not only touches his inexhaustible potential and becomes an overnight star but also brings dignity it his beleaguered sister, humbles his biggest detractor Aman Bajaj and in the process, lives up to the faith that Sara had in him all along.

Many superbly written scripts come and go, which initially promises a lot but in the main course fail to strike a chord, and hence are lost somewhere in the race where a plethora of other movies belong, one of this kind which will be released this year is the movie 26th July at barista. This story basically revolves around the central idea of the unprecedented and the exceptional rainfall which hit the city and the date happens to be an eventful date which has made an unreadable mark in the mind of the mumbaikars. the entire city which never sleeps came to a deafening silence all of a sudden, the whole humankind inhabiting Mumbai are caught in real fix, when rain god blessed them or cursed them rather with some incessant rainfall which brought the entire fury of activities into a sudden halt and everything becomes standstill. The map of the city would have given a hap hazardous look at that point of time I m pretty sure!!

The story proceeds and brings out the plight of the people who are stuck in a hopeless situation in one of those fateful nights and therefore generates a unreal and a fictitious saga of the victims who are caught in the trap, the story which are created revolve around the central idea of the crisis and underlines the need of the much needed cooperation and mutual dependence a much needed trait to be acquired in today’s world. The list of the victim who form the storyline are actually chosen from various sections of the society, right from the depressed and the downtrodden class to the elite and the affluent ones, it comprises of a couple who are apprehensive about their child who was left out in a theme park, an aspiring and a hopeful actress, two professionals serving in the service organizations, a police officer, a lady in search of her kid, a child who is in search of his father, and a lady who is raped by some anti social elements.

There is a depiction of desperation at a coffee parlor which is done in quiet an amateur way, the art director and the cinematographer are completely disappointing, and the screenplay fails to strike a chord with the audience editing is much needed solution in this domain of this art. The director of the movie also adds up and makes the contributions in his own way in making the movie a complete hopeless one. All in all, the entire movie can be called as a foul play, adding to the frustration of a handful of viewers is the atmosphere like stage where the story swings between undefined positions. To give the final verdict, I would say that the movie deserves one visit, that to, only to get a feel of the hardships the people faced during the time of crisis and how they fought their way back to the normal style of living, apart from that watching this movie will be a painful experience for sure.

Munabhai cha la Amerika

Well every body heard of the name munnabhai and circuit. Every movie freak loved the 1st in the series munnabhai mbbs.It wasn’t enough, and then came the second which was bigger and larger than the first, not in size though but in entertainment Lage raho munna bhai. And from that moment people were craving for more. Now tell me who wouldn’t cash on this situation. So next in the series is all about our munna bhai going to America.

Trailer of movie: Munna Bhai Chale Amerika is out and Munna Bhai (Sanjay mama) and Circuit (Arshad) are seen learning English as they are leaving to America in this movie. There is a perfect comedy strip in the trailer and that helps the audience to get the exact idea about the movie is, how it is going to be for sure. Our very own people in Andhra Pradesh might be reminded of a comic character called parvateesham who sets off to a similar voyage to not America but to London.

Munna Bhai, with an history in impressing and influencing spectators with its so called performaces has set standard in both the first and the second part of the series. His shirts are also refreshingly good colored, and sanju looks really good in them. And after all the talk about the hero and the supporting hero how on earth can we forget about the actress?? Well the choice of actress in the movie is also to be talked off! The first movie had Gracy Singh,who was really graceful. Pleasing smile good personality ability to act and what not. Well, the first one was good, the second one even better. And I’m talking about none other than the gorgeous Kerala beauty Vidya Balan. She was terrific in the movie. After the great success of the the Lage Raho Munna Bhai and Munna Bhai MBBS , Munna bhai rose to become a brand name and this lead to whole new Munna Bhai sequels like James Bond or Harry Potter series. Now the originator Mr.Vidhu Vinod Chopra and the director being Mr.Raj Kumar Hirani have resumed performance on the third branch of the continuation Munna Bhai Chale America, plus they are all set to give the audience something more for sure.

Video Trailer of Munnabhai Chale Amerika :
The breathtaking idea to transport the two lead characters in the US took shape when the director Rajkumar Hirani saw that Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi were sitting together in a golf-cart in US. The contemplation of two jigri‘bhais’ being transported to US took Hirani’s picture. When Dutt came to be acquainted with this particular idea, he liked it a great deal and asked Hirani to definitely make a film lying on it. This is how Munnabhai Chale Amerika was born.

U me Aur Hum

One of Bollywood’s most well liked couple Kajol and Ajay Devgan are back to set the screen on fire in this touching story of love. The film sees Ajay Devgan take on a new avtaar as Director-cum-Actor in his directorial debut. The film is infact being directed and produced by Devgan under his banner Devgan Films’. The script is co-written by Robin Bhatt and Sutanu Gupta, apart from Devgan. Vishal Bharadwaj(of Omkara fame) provides the musical score for this evergreen romance.

The film is being promoted as an inclusive family social. Elements of humour, drama etc intermix freely in the storyline. The movie projects and encourages the institution of marriage and the concept of long-term relationships. In the words of the actor-director-producer, “I would rather call my film a romantic film which has a lot of drama and humor”. Considering some of Ajay Devgan’s most memorable performances have come in action and serious roles, it’s surprising that he chose a story which is primarily a romantic comedy for his maiden directorial venture. Nevertheless the film has attracted a lot of attention as it will be after a long time that cine goers will be able to catch the real life pair of Kajol and Ajay Devgan in action together.

The film is set on a cruise ship, as shown prominently on the promos. Ajay, played by Ajay Devgan, meets Pia, played by Kajol. She serves him drinks in that first encounter. He is a top rated psychiatrist, but this beautiful woman completely muddles his mind up and the toll she takes on him is far greater and taxing than that of the alcohol. This was true love in his book. Pia on her part was a woman of the heart, and could only watch as he made a total mess of the episode, and was pleased when he passed out. It took him two dozen drinks to utter the three magical words, “I love you”. A few lies here and there were thrown in to please the lady. The lady won over, it all seemed so idyllic and heavenly for this couple for the ages, till he confessed. And Pia isn’t amused; she leaves. The story is all about the emotions and times of this couple.

U, Me Aur Hum has attracted a lot of interest as its one of the few times when one sees a top line Bollywood actor don the director’s hat, even when in the prime of his acting career. Despite speculation that the film is based on the 2004 Hollywood romance, ‘Notebook’, the makers have denied any such similarity and have claimed their product is completely different. Kajol’s casting in a role that seems completely up her alley is another facet to look out for.

The film, set for an April 11 release, is one of the most exciting upcoming movies. The catchline of the movie says “The greatest journey covered is the distance between two people”. Let’s wait and watch if the film can successfully make the journey to the audience’s hearts.

Rub Ne banadi Jodi

Aditya chopra’s latest venture rab ne bana di Jodi is being eagerly awaited by millions. He is all set to be back in the limelight with this new promising project of his. He is putting on the director’s cap after 8 yrs. His last directorial venture was mohabbatein starring shahrukh khan. Aditya chopra will make his new movie rab ne bana di jodi under the banner of “yash raj films” this time. The viewers are definitely hoping a visual treat. His legendary first movie diwale dulhaniya le jayenge has still not been forgotten by anyone. It created a record breaking history in bollywood. This movie again has shahrukh in it, which surely will be a major publicity factor for it. The combination of aditya chopra and shahrukh khan has proven to be a hit in the past.

As already mentioned shahrukh khan is the main hero of the movie. The female counterpart is yet to be finalized. The leading lady opposite to shahrukh will be a fresh new face. The search has already started for the new face who can fit the role in a perfect manner. It surely will be a dream debut for that lucky girl to be acting with aditya chopra and shahrukh khan together in one film. Aditya chopra will also be writing the script for this movie along with direction. The shooting of the movie will believed to commence from may 2008. aditya chopra is planning to rope in salim-sulaiman for the music of this movie. Salim- sulaiman have created good music in the past.

We can enjoy this movie mostly by the end of 2008, which is when it is expected to release. This is a good time for the release of the movie because of the holiday season for many of us.Aditya chopra had by choice taken this 8 year long break from direction. He was certainly not wasting time or talent doing nothing. He had been engaged in setting up the first studio model in India, which definitely would take “yash raj films” places. Simultaneously he was also busy with a lot of production activities. The movies which were produced under him over the recent past are hum tum, fanaa, salam namaste to name a few. He was the creative director of these movies. Along with all this he also had written many scripts in movies like veer zaara which was yash chopra’s directorial project. We surely are hoping for another record breaking movie just like dilwale dulahaniya le jayenge which still is been shown in theatres in Mumbai. The duo shahrukh khan and aditya chopra are all set to create magic once again.

Chamku

Maybe sometime back, Deol’s used to be hardly non-existent in the Hindi Film Industry. Now a day, one is sure to encounter them boasting the really bonded family of theirs. A starry line up with the likes of Dharmender and Sunny Deol, the family is sure to catch an eye. The intensions were made clear with ‘Apne’, whereby Deol’s proved it through their hard hitting, no nuisance manner, that they meant business. The flick received satisfactory responses, taking into consideration the degree to which the youth today is being dragged towards Hollywood.

Post-Apne, their first home production ‘Chamku’ is lined up for release this October. With an attractive star caste in the form of Bobby Deol, Arshad warsi as well as Priyanka Chopra, the film has started making some news. Decorated with catchy tag line ‘Kahani kabhie khatam nahin Hoti’, the flick is sure to turn some heads. Directed by kabeer kaushik, one can expect something realistic of some logistic values in the movie.

The film revolves around the central character ‘Chamku’, a Bihari who migrates to Mumbai for reasons of immaterial values. The story then turns into a narrative, dealing primarily with the life of a Bihari in Mahrashtra. The very thought is enough to raise some eyebrows. Well, for those pondering over the issue whether the story is attributed to the tyranny of the non-locals in Mumbai, keep pondering, as Bobby Deol in a recent interview, by leaving questions unanswered, opene doors for one’s imagination to come into play. A very smart marketing move one must say!

Personally for Bobby, past one year has not turned up rich dividends. With the failure of ‘Jhoom Barabar Jhoom’ and average responses to ‘Apne’, the lanky Deol has something to think about. This, however, should not stop him from being optimistic as ‘Chamku’, stars Priyanka Chopra with Bobby for the fthird time, with, ‘Barsat’ and ‘Kismat’ being the former. Accrding to the rumors, the duo are looking refreshingly good. With a diva like Priyanka in the whereabouts, one should not expect anything less. Apart from ‘Chamku’, Bobby would be seen in ‘Ek’ and ‘Roshan’, which are also lined up for release latter this year.

The music for ‘Chamku’ is composed by Monty of ‘Saawariya’ fame, who last year won hearts of millions with music like a breath of fresh air. Lyrics by Sameer, who once again has been noticed as writing for Bobby’s movies, usually complements the great music by Monty.

Sources reveal that, Danny Denzongpa, will also be joining the team to shoot for five days at film city latter this month. He play ‘baba’, a devotee, who in the movie resurrects boby from the shackles of insecurity. With such a power pact script, a brilliant director, refreshing music and gorgeous caste, Vijeta production is all set for a second innings!

Fauj Mein Mauj

he movie Fauj Mein Mauj is being produced by Ravi Walia and is written by Farhad. It’s all about a woman joining a male regiment. The movie is a comedy flick, which is sure to tickle your funny bone. The basic theme of the story seems to be what happens when a sexy lady joins in an all-male cavalry. Mallika sherawat joins the army after her husband’s death and there she becomes a distraction to all the men in the cavalry.

The movie casts Mallika Sherawat, Paresh Rawal, Rajpal Yadav, Sharat Saxena, Asrani, Lillete Dubey, Himani Shivpuri, Mukhesh Rushi. The music of the movie is composed by Pritam Chakroborthy. The cinematography is taken care of Om Prakash.

The release of the movie is delayed as there was a discrepancy among the director Murali Nagavalli and the producer Ravi Wallia. Financial crisis is another reason for the delay of the movie. However, the main reason is, stars including Mallika Sherawat, Paresh rawal etc and the producer himself was not happy with the director’s efforts. The diector Murali Nagvalli is outcasted from the movie and a new director Sanjay Chhel is appointed. It is being talked that the entire movie will be again shot from scratch; hope the director’s work assuages the star’s and producer’s visions.

Mallika Sherawat has sadly been committed only to guest appearances in most of the movies in 2007. Apparently, all the movies turned out good at box office. Welcome, Guru, Aap Ka Suroor are some of the biggest hits in 2007 and have one thing in common i.e Mallika Sherawat. The only movie in which she is palying a lead role is Fauj Mein Mauj 2007.

FIRST POSTER OF THE MOVIE:
The movie is being postponed from a very longtime and finally, one good news for all the Mallika Sherawat fans out there, the poster of the movie is released. The names of the stars Paresh Rawal, Rajpal Yadav are imprinted on either side of the name Mallika Sherawat in between. (in pink). Two planes will be flying in the sky and the smoke coming out of them depicts Mallika Sherawat’s ASSETS. The poster seems quite creative; it hints that there will be a lot of it in the movie, quite tempting for all the guys and hard core fans of Mallika Sherawat.

Tashan Bollywood Movie Reviews

In what is being seen as the comeback plank of many industry superstars to the Yash Raj banner, ‘Tashan’ is already being seen and promoted as one of the biggest releases of 2008. The movie marks the return of Akshay Kumar( after Yeh Dillagi -1994 and Dil To Pagal Hai -1997), Kareena Kapoor( after Mujhse Dosti Karoge -2002) and Anil Kapoor( after Lamhe -1992) to the biggest production house in Bollywood. Along with the stylish Saif Ali Khan, they complete the star studded lineup of glamour and action in this movie, which is the maiden directorial venture of Vijay Krishna Acharya (credited with the screenplay of other Yash Raj hits like Dhoom and Dhoom 2). The movie is being produced by Aditya Chopra and Yash Chopra on behalf of Yash Raj Films, with Vishal-Shekhar providing the music.

Tashan, which stands for ‘style’ is believed to be a wholesome action commercial flick, with a brazen and overwhelming entertainment flavor. With plenty of twists, high powered performances, thrills, it’s expected to combine the age old Yash Raj Bollywood masala tinge with the fast paced story telling trend of new age cinema.

The film revolves around a recovery agent, ‘Bachchan Pandey’ played by Akshay Kumar, who is employed by a petty wannabe gangster ‘Bhaiyaji’ played by Anil Kapoor. Kareena Kapoor plays a glamorous lady who owes a large amount of money to ‘Bhaiyaji’. ‘Bachchan Pandey’ is therefore assigned by his boss to recover the money from Kareena. This sets off a chain of events, in which Kareena is tracked around the world by the former, leading to a racy narrative. Saif Ali Khan’s role is pretty well guarded, as is the unconventional theme of the film. But what is surely known is that the film will feature his son, Ibrahim, making his debut and reportedly playing his reel life son.

The exciting plot and theme apart, Tashan has also been in the news for the fashionable new looks that each of the lead cast are sporting. Saif’s being the most prominent with a moustache and a mane, Akshay with designer stubble and a very short haircut, Kareena Kapoor’s ultra slim look to fit into the sexy attires and bikinis for her role. Even the normally conventional looking Anil Kapoor will be seen with a heavy, handlebar moustache.

The film was shot in various locales across the world. Shooting commenced in June 2007 in Kerala (that set the stage for the Saif-Kareena real life romance), and thereafter in Laddakh and Rajasthan. Some portions were also done in and around the Fort area of Mumbai and on the banks of the river Ganges at Haridwar. Exotic settings in Greece were also used.

The prmos of the film has raised a lot of hype and interest. Infact a recent IndiaFM poll put Tashan as No. 1 on the list of “Most Awaited Movies of 2008”. The punchline of the film- “THE ISHTYLE….THE GOODLUCK…..THE PHARMOOLA” itself evinces a lot of attention. Hitting the cinemas on 25 April 2008, it remains to be seen if this flick is as stylish at the box office as it is believed to be.
