Ram Leela Blueray DvdRip Download - Move over Raj-Simran
Finally when he musters the courage to confess, Nisha pushes him in the swimming pool, laughs at him and leaves. The hero did confess, but not to the girl's face.
He did so in the swimming pool where he declares, "Shit! I love her." In 1994 the most empowering thing about this romantic sequence was the fact that a leading man had said "Shit" on screen.
Now meet Ram and Leela. He espies her in a Holi melee; she too is magnetically drawn to him. Theirs is an all guns blazing attraction. In a wordless yet fully loaded exchange, he points a water gun at her but she has the real deal. It's love and lust at first sight. How do they confess? Well, they kiss. Like lovers. And the song goes 'Lahu muh lag gaya.'
Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Ram-Leela take over the naughty and virginal territory of Prem-Nisha and Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jaayenge's Raj-Simran. The change was in the air. Ishaqzaade's Zoya-Parma and Raghu-Gayatri of Shuddh Desi Romance also walked the same line of love n' lust but Bhansali's Ram-Leela emerge as the poster couple of The New Age Raunchy Lovers in Bollywood.
'Goliyon Ki Raasleela: Ram-Leela' marks a distinctive paradigm shift in how lovers in our love stories talk and behave.
This is Bhansali's most physical film till date. No towels are dropped, no 'diyas' are forever lit to signify burning desire. In his latest film, Bhansali goes all out to raunchy-fy Hindi film's lovers.
The hero is superbly objectified in 'Tattad tattad', the girl unabashedly talks of doing it "first time" with her lover. In an impactful sequence after the star crossed lovers elope, he is fretting that the bed might be too hard for her, she says, "Bistar chubhega toh tere upar so loongi." It's carnal, raw, pulsating. No apologies.
Bullet Raja Blueray DVDRIP Free Download - "He is a little 'besharam'," Tigmanshu Dhulia on why he cast Saif in 'Bullett Raja'
Ques: You are working with a big star for the first time with Bullett Raja. Why have you picked Saif Ali Khan and how did you negotiate his image?
Tigmanshu: While writing the script, I could gauge the scale of the film and I knew it's not going to happen within Rs 8 crore because of the action and location. 'Bullett Raja's character needed a star who could pull in the crowd. I've always thought ki Saif bahut khula hua actor hai. An actor has to be a little 'besharam', somebody who is ready to lose inhibitions, and not be conditioned to do the right thing. That's why a little child or an old man is always watchable. Saif has proven himself on that front several times. He is also a good draw at the box office, so he's a good mix of both qualities. And you have to exploit a star's image to your advantage. I used to perceive Saif as this urban, naughty and charming man. He is not fully innocent, you know 'thoda haraami lagta hai.' I have tried to retain that here.
Ques: Was it tough to get Saif Ali Khan to deliver a rustic accent?
Tigmanshu: He has said his dialogues very well. I didn't have to break my head over it as I thought I would. Only the body language sometimes became a problem. The way he would put his hands in his pocket or hold a cigarette — I had to make sure 'woh western pana nahi hona chahiye'. But it's always interesting to make an actor do new things. Had I worked with an actor who has a vernacular image, it wouldn't be as exciting.
Krrish 3 Blue Ray DVD RIP Free Download - 'Krrish 3' film review: Hrithik Roshan perfect choice to do this role
Cast: Hrithik Roshan, Priyanka Chopra, Vivek Oberoi, Kangana Ranaut
Director: Rakesh Roshan
The Indian Express Rating: **
'Krrish 3' is a superhero film. It is also a throwback to the creaky family entertainers Bollywood used to make. The hero has special powers, sure, but also a loving daddy, a lovely wifey, an attractive moll and a villain with severe daddy issues. Only a pet poodle or parrot is missing.
Superheroes have been around in Hindi cinema for decades, but huge technology jumps have made 'Krrish 3' the slickest of them all, special effects-wise. The rest of it is marred by tackiness. When Krrish is doing his derring-do stunts, we watch, even if we've seen Superman do this 30 years ago. But when he delivers maudlin dialogue about fathers and mothers and bravery, we are pulled back to the ground with a thud, with the superhero the Roshans made.
Hrithik is the perfect choice amongst the Bollywood superstar lot to do this role. With his superbly articulated chest, each muscle moving and shiny and oiled, Krrish doesn't even need a mask and a cape. But the ensemble is eye-catching, and we ignore his immaculately-styled long hair, flying in the wind, when he is whizzing about rescuing little boys. Roshan Jr is as likeable and earnest as he usually is, but can't rise above the mothballed treatment. Roshan Sr, who has written and directed, should have given the superhero more to do.
But he gets stuck in bringing the backstory forward. The soppy but sweet `Koi Mil Gaya's ( 2003) socially challenged but brilliant Rohit begets Krishna, who finds his super-powers in 'Krrish' ( 2006). Both the ageing Rohit and Krishna star in `'Krrish 3', and both roles are played by Hrithik. Priyanka, playing Krishna's TV reporter wife, has to look on admiringly as Hrithik does his standard dance number. He is still as dextrous, but the dancing has no zing, and the songs are terrible.
