Ambarsariya (2016)
9/10
A path breaking and face changing of Punjabi cinema - must watch for masala move buffs
8 November 2016
Let's talk about first thing first, the background score, script execution and the climax is the highlight of this story. The movie starts with Jatt Ambarsariya (Diljit Dosanjh) sitting on a manjee (typical North Indian cot/seater) narrating his story to a Dhaba (Motel) owner (Karamjit Anmol) and his Dhaba (Motel) staff and also briefly joined by an SHO Punjab Police (Binnu Dhillon). Diljit tells about his adventure as an undercover agent posing as an insurance agent and his encounters with three women while on a secret government mission. While all are betting on whom Jatt Ambarsariya will choose/has chosen as his girlfriend out of the three ladies, Ambarsariya has different intentions altogether. There are only two songs in this movie and both are amazing to listen to. Ambarsariya is one of a kind movie made in Punjabi cinema, never seen before, the script is well executed although the story falls loose in the middle, this is however over-shadowed by Diljit's acting skills and ability to deliver one-liners with perfect timing. The background score of this movie gets full marks. The movie goes in flashback and returns briefly at regular intervals which is also timed well. The climax scene steals the show. Overall this is a very good movie to watch.

Roy (2015)
1/10
As boring as anything that can be.
11 April 2015
The film is supposed to be running two parallel stories. It takes off and enters a blank space and never really gets to recover well. The acting is slow and the movie is even slower. The plot is a mixture of some Oscar nominated movies. There's nothing exciting about the characters or story either. The antagonists do not hold a strong key to the story. The suspense that gets revealed is not the worth watching the entire movie. Some background score is directly picked up from Hollywood. Most of it from the 'The Bourne trilogy', probably trying to create a Hollywood movie experience. My verdict is 1. The only treat is the song ' Chhittiyaan kalaiyaan'. Go ahead and enjoy the song.
