Mission Majnu is a Bollywood film for those first time viewers with its songs, sentimental characters and colorful, rhythmic vision in an action thriller.

This movie is in its original Hindi, so you need to take that into account.

Spies, intrigue, thriller and melodrama in this production with a political backdrop.

About the Movie Mission Majnu

We warn you: this movie promises more action in the tráiler than which it delivers later in the movie. However, it is entertaining… it uses a plot and treatment that is more or less lightweight at the beginning and transforms it into a more “serious” movie of political intrigue that gradually morphs into drama and even melodrama.

Ms Dhoni – The Untold Story

Starring Sushant Singh Rajput

Directed by Neeraj Pandey

Rating: ** ½ (2 and a half stars)

There is a moment of reckoning in Dhoni’s life when getting on that moving train would mean the difference between life and stillness. That metaphorical moment when Sushant Singh Rajput, playing Dhoni as though by birthright, jumps on that train, shot with astute honesty and gritty resplendence by Santosh Thundiyil, is so brilliant in capturing the moment that changes a life from ordinary to something extra, that greedily one waits for more such moments in the vast stretches of storytelling that occupy Ms Dhoni – The Untold Story.

First thing;s first. There is nothing ‘Untold’ in this 3 hour-plus sprawling paean to one of the most iconic cricketers of our times. All we see for what seems like an eternity of playing-time are scene after scene from Dhoni’s life and career.

Actress Bhumika Chawla, who is making a comeback to Bollywood after nine years in Neeraj Pandey’s M.S Dhoni: The Untold Story, feels everyone deserves to know the personal side of the most successful Indian captain as his story is very inspiring. “There’s so much I didn’t know about Dhoni which I learnt after working in the film. I’m sure most people don’t know much about his personal side and it’s something we all deserve to know. It’s a very inspiring story and it shows there’s more to cricketer Dhoni,”said Bhumika.

The film, which releases worldwide tomorrow, is a biopic based on the life of Indian cricketer and current Odi captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni.

Bhumika plays Dhoni’s sister Jayanti in the film and she prepared for her character based on the director’s research.

“I didn’t have to meet the real Jayanti.

Satish Kaushik is back on stage. And this time Satish even sings on stage! Speaking happily on his grand comeback to theatre Satish says, "My new play Mr & Mrs Murarilal premiered this weekend at Rangsharda (Mumbai) at 7.30 pm. I' m back on stage after four years. Before this I performed Salesman Ramlal directed by Feroz Abbas Khan for 14 years." The opening was a resounding success. "We had a grand opening houseful, show...Subhash Ghai, Rishi Kapoor, Tusshar Kapoor, Bhumika Chawla, Sudhir Mishra, Vicky Kaushal, Tinnu Anand, Rahul Bhat, Suchitra Krishnamurthy, Meerra Chopra, Vandana Sajnani Khattar were among the packed audiences." Mr & Mrs Muralilal requires Satish to be enormously energetic on stage. "I am singing and dancing in this play. In fact one song which is my introduction in the play is recorded in my voice. I sang for the first time in a studio." Meghna Malik and Amit Pathak who,...

There isn’t much you have to do when you are taking on board the task of remaking a blockbuster. Sure you adapt it for the new audience at hand but ultimately there’s a reason you chose the blockbuster to remake, because it was pretty damn good. So why then do you claim to make a remake of a blockbuster but decide to ruthlessly suck out the very soul of the original script?

Amit Sharma takes a perfectly fine family entertainer and turns it on its head. He sidelines the two leads and instead chooses to flaunt his love for the villain instead. Yes, what Tevar has promised you was all a grand lie. The film in fact is not about a young kabbadi player (Arjun Kapoor) and a damsel in distress (Sonakshi Sinha) on the run from a ruthless goon (Manoj Bajpai) but in fact in Sharma’s...

2014 certainly was a year of highs for Arjun Kapoor with three releases (2 States, Gunday, and Finding Fanny) and each performance garnering great reviews, especially for his work in the super hit 2 States. The young actor is starting off 2015 with a bang as well with the release of Tevar. Co-starring Sonakshi Sinha and Manoj Bajpayee, the romantic action thriller, directed by Amit Sharma, hits the big screen on January 9th.

The film tells the story of Pintu Shukla, a local Kabaddi champion from Agra who is a regular boy next-door type of guy but when he finds himself in the middle of a lethal fight for love he never backs down. There is a local Bahubali from Mathura, Gajender Singh, who has a penchant for sharp knives and instant death. Then of course there is a pretty girl, Radhika Mishra, who hails from the same city and just wants to escape from Gajender’s domain.

Tevar is the fourth remake of 2003 Telugu blockbuster Okkadu originally starring Mahesh Babu, Bhumika Chawla and Prakash Raj. Arjun Kapoor (2 States), Sonakshi Sinah (Lootera) and Manoj Bajpai (Rajneeti) take on the respective pivotal roles for the Hindi remake under the banner of Sanjay Kapoor Entertainment Pvt Ltd.

It features music by Sajid-Wajid (Wanted, Dabangg) and lyrics by Kausar Munir with the vocal talents of Shafqat Amanat Ali (‘Manchala’ – Hasse Toh Phasse), Shruti Hasan (‘Alvida’ – D-Day), Ritu Pathak (‘Jalebi Bai’ – Double Dhamaal) amongst others.

Superman introduces our larger than life protagonist with much fan fare that is not far from typical. It is a decent enough number but suffers from two drawbacks. Kausar Munir’s lyrics are rife with the right amount youthful arrogance but the line, ‘jo leve panga, kar doon maa behn’, is arguably in bad taste if not down right disrespectful to women. Secondly, the track is right...

Now that the obese Arjun Kapoor has turned into the rugged hero of Bollywood, he often credits his success to Salman Khan who encouraged him to turn actor. Not ending at that, Arjun Kapoor will now be doing a song in his upcoming film Tevar which will be dedicated to his mentor Salman Khan. Arjun Kapoor will be seen playing the role of Salman fan and the actor's introduction song in the film will have lines like 'Main toh Superman Salman ka fan, jo leve mujhse panga, kar do mein uska band'. Arjun Kapoor believes that these lines will pay a kind of homage to Salman Khan since he played a very important role in making Arjun the star he is. In fact, producer and Arjun's uncle Sanjay Kapoor too is in complete support with his nephew and stated that his character Pintoo in the film is also a...

Arjun Kapoor is currently busy shooting the action drama Tevar and the actor ended up with an injury on the sets. Apparently, during the shoot of a song sequence in the film, Arjun is said to have hurt his lower back while doing a particular dance step because of which the shoot had to be stalled. The said incident happened at Film City, Goregaon, Mumbai, during a three day shoot schedule and the actor was said to be in too much pain. Though he was hurt badly, Arjun Kapoor insisted on moving on with the shoot after resting for a while, because he wanted to complete it as per the deadline. In fact, the film's producer and Arjun's uncle Sanjay Kapoor had insisted on calling off the shoot but Arjun did not agree to it since he was aware that it was difficult to accommodate dates if the shoot is left unfinished.

Of all the many films that Bollywood churns out every year, there are always a handful number of films, that are remembered many years later due to their outstanding music, powerful story line and brilliant performances.

Tere Naam is the film in the spotlight this time and it is celebrating 11 years since its release. A film that has superstar Salman Khan playing the role of a rowdy college boy who falls in love with a very simple girl Bhumika Chawla. As in most bollywood love stories, fate always has its plans for the lovers, but in Tere Naam this is treated very differently as the couple are separated in a tragic way.

The films soundtrack has amazing music by Music Director Himesh Reshammiya, whose songs in Tere Naam are remembered and loved even today. Sajid Wajid are the guest composers on the album. The film is directed by Satish Kaushik...

When Bollywood actresses come together for a film, they often spark rumours of catfights. But looks like the contemporary actresses are in a much secured place and they have been lending a helping hand to their co-actresses. Shruti Haasan, who is a popular actress down South and in Bollywood, has lend her voice for a romantic song in the upcoming film Tevar starring Sonakshi Sinha.

In the recent trend of many actresses turning singers for their films (Shraddha Kapoor, Alia Bhatt), Shruti Haasan, however, is not a part of the cast in the film but has only sung a song. The music directed Sajid-Wajid believe that Shruti has a fresh voice which suited the mood of the song and hence had decided to rope in the actress to sing. On the other hand, we hear that Sonakshi Sinha had no qualms over this decision and was rather happy about Shruti being a part of it.

With the recent trend of adding the tadka of rap in Bollywood music albums, Sanjay Kapoor too plans to make the music of his upcoming production Tevar a little peppy by roping in the Pakistani singer Imran Khan. Imran Khan has given some of the top chartbusters like 'Amplifier' and 'Bewafa' which also has an element of Punjabi lyrics. Though he has been bombarded with many film offers in the past, Sanjay Kapoor will be the first producer Imran will be collaborating with. For the film Tevar, we hear that Imran will be composing and singing the song and the video of the same will also feature the film's leads Arjun Kapoor and Sonakshi Sinha. According to Sanjay, this song was important because it is supposedly the Usp of the film. He also decided to rope in Imran because he believes that the singer has a larger fan base majorly...

Dinesh Patel who had produced Ajay Devgn's career-making debut Phool Aur Kaante is currently in an unhappy financial situation. To tide him over the monetary crisis, Devgn, known to be charitable towards the film fraternity, has agreed to let Patel's 10-year old film with Devgan in the lead be released. Old long-forgotten films being fished out of the cans for release... these are every star's biggest nightmare. Ajay Devgn who is currently going through the most fruitful phase of his career now has to confront the embarrassment of a 10-year old film entitled Naam (no relation to the Mahesh Bhatt film starring Sanjay Dutt) being released next week. The film directed by Anees Bazmee features Devgn with Sameera Reddy and Bhumika Chawla. Complicating the issue further is the fact that the film is produced by Dinesh Patel who was the producer of Devgn's debut film Phool Aur Kaante.

Thiruvananthapuram, March 3: Southern actor Srikanth, known for his negative role in "Hero", will team up with Bhumika Chawla after 11 years for a cameo in Raj Prabhavathy's "Buddy".

Bhumika was his heroine in his debut film "Roja Kootam", which came out in 2002. It's after a gap of 11 years that the two actors will be seen together.

He will do a cameo in the film and has accepted the role considering the character's importance and the strong cast of the movie that includes names like Anoop Menon, Balachandra Menon, Babu Antony, Arun Midhun and Asha Sarath. It is being produced by Jackson and Greeni under the banner - Greeni.

Mumbai, Jan 14: Bhumika Chawla who is often called the ‘one film wonder’ in Bollywood, despite having a rugged career in southern film industry too in the recent past, has got several other projects of sandalwood in her kitty presently. But then she was recently caught in a multiplex watching the movie “Life of Pi” with her buddy at Juhu. There are several stars who make their presence felt with their show off, but Bhumika kept on waiting at the lounge for the film to start. Even as the film ended, she quietly left the place along with her friend. Bhumika has been married to the yoga master Bharat Thakur.

The 34 years old had a.

Chennai, Nov 19: Is language not a criterion for actresses to gain entry into films? If yes, then why do most top heroines in the southern film industry rely on voice actors?

Ians finds out answers to these questions from some members of the film fraternity.

Telugu actor−filmmaker Ravi Babu, known for films such as "Nuvvila" and "Avunu", has worked with actresses such as Yami Gautham, Bhumika Chawla and Shamna Kasim aka Poorna over the years and says fingers can't be pointed at the actresses because they're hardly given time to even make the effort to learn the language.

"It's unfortunate but we can't blame the actresses..

The influence of South Indian cinema on Hindi over the years had gradually increased to a whole new level today. In the 90s you simply got accustomed to faces like Nagarjuna and Rajnikanth whose films without fail got dubbed in Hindi. However, come the millennium and the selling of your remake rights and the subsequent acquiring of it by a maker in Hindi cinema has become one of the most prominent business transactions in Indian cinema. We are no longer satisfied with dubbed versions of their films nor are many of the Si makers looking to release such versions of their films.

The idea of remakes allows for the story to be adapted into a new setting to be marketed to a new audience after being customised for their needs. Why risk an original script that may not work when you’ve got a blockbuster script at your disposal that...
