Producer: Karan Johar, Hiroo Yash Johar Director: Shakun Batra Starring: Imran Khan, Kareena Kapoor, Randhir Kapoor, Boman Irani, Ram Kapoor, Ratna Pathak Shah Music: Amit Trivedi Lyrics: Amitabh Bhattacharya Genre: Romantic Recommended Audience: General Film Released on: 10 February 2012 Storyline Every movie sets a canvas that it needs to paint on. A romcom movie in the valentine week is our first brief for Ek Main aur Ekk Tu (EMAET) and that sets a light breezy note to the film. So how well did a debut director Shakun Batra paint on this often used canvas? Imran Khan (whose first movie as a lead, we saw 8 years after Kareena Kapoor's) and Kareena Kapoor is an interesting pairing so can they keep the spunk of the romcom genre alive? Those are the question that everyone has on their mind when they enter the movie hall... An edgy architect who has grown up with all the right behaviour but not thoughts, meets a happy-go-lucky carefree hairstylist who is just out of a bre

Producer: Karan Johar Director: Karan Malhotra Starring: Hrithik Roshan, Priyanka Chopra, Sanjay Dutt, Rishi Kapoor Music: Ajay-Atul Lyrics: Amitabh Bhattacharya Genre: Drama Recommended Audience: Adult Film Released on: 26 January 2012 Storyline Starting off in Mandwa, off the coast of Mumbai, the movie brings to surface schoolmaster Dinanath Chauhan, whose upright nature irks a lot of people, one of them being the power-hungry Kancha Cheena, who – Gita in hand – chants its holy verses in an almost satanic tone to abolish whatsoever he hates. Implicating him in a false case of rape, Cheena hangs Dinanath Chauhan in front of a horde of villagers, forcing his pregnant wife, Suhasini, and child, Vijay, to flee Mandwa. Landing in Mumbai, Vijay sees nothing but violence all around him. Still seething with the rage of his father’s murder, Vijay decides to play his own game of revenge, where life later comes full circle. So let’s get the more important matters straight for those

Producer: Abbas-Mustan Director: Abbas-Mustan Starring: Abhishek Bachchan, Sonam Kapoor, Bipasha Basu, Bobby Deol, Neil Nitin Mukesh, Omi Vaidya, Sikandar Kher, Johnny Lever, Vinod Khanna Music: Pritam Lyrics: Ashish Pandit Genre: Thriller Film Released on: 06 January 2012 Storyline The dictionary explains the Stockholm Syndrome as “an apparently paradoxical psychological phenomenon in which hostages express empathy and have positive feelings towards their captors, sometimes to the point of defending them. These feelings are generally considered irrational in light of the danger or risk endured by the victims, who essentially mistake a lack of abuse from their captors for an act of kindness.” Now this bit of digression is important to explain the concoction of emotions you may feel when you go to watch Players. We are held captive by the makers for about two and a half hours, held at ransom in an Abbas-Mastan universe where sense and sensibility has been dethroned by the ab

Storyline The scorching hot Bollywood actress, Shilpa Shetty steals the show with her stellar performance as Goutami, who cannot do without expressing herself with dance. She concentrates all her efforts and energy towards the art that means the world to her. While she is way above the ordinary when it comes to weaving a charming spell on the dance stage, she is indifferent to the unprecedented attention that follows her, wherever she goes. During one of her journeys, she comes across Jai Leang, an upcoming painter with a mixed background; his father is a Chinese, whereas his mother hails from India. Jai hardly socializes and his passion to fill the canvas with colors of life derives much motivation from his Communist-culture-influenced childhood. While on the one hand, the movie focuses on the blooming romance between Jai and Goutami, on the other hand, it showcases that art knows no boundaries and it’s the invisible glue that holds diverse cultures together. Direction: R. Sarath
