Namkeen (1982)
Disappointing
Very disappointing specially at the end. Just no drama - no pathos - story just ends very weak. Great actors - Sharmila, Shabana, Sanjeev Kumar but very weak story. Name suggests it is a comedy but really it is a slow winding movie that leads nowhere. Nice portrayal of a village in the hills in the uncomplicated times - an India which we don't see anymore. Sanjeev Kumar had pretty good acting and so did Sharmila. The scenes by themselves were interesting but no spell binding story to hold your attention. Pretty good acting by the little girl too. It is the story of a truck driver who rents a house owned by a old lady and her 3 daughters. Predicatably there is the undertone of romance and challenges.
Chanakya (1990)
Jai Maa Bharati
It is not a fiction or a drama but depicts the establishment of the Maurya dynasty in India. One man, who had faced very tough circumstances not only in his childhood but also in his life made history by uniting the different independent states sharing the same culture and background into one country, India and threw the kings out who did not deserve to rule. His patriotism for his motherland was beyond any appreciation. It inspires one to preserve that culture and always uphold the needs of the country over your own needs and desires. I have watched it twice, but even when I watched it the second time, it didn't inspire me less than it did the first time. It teaches many good things and the best thing I like is the theme that if you are following the truth and have faith in your beliefs, no matter how many obstacles or hurdles you face, don't give up and you will win one day.
I would give it a 9/10 (just because at some places it has been prolonged unnecessarily, dances etc. were not that needed).
Khwahish (2003)
Copy of famous novel "Love Story" by Eric Segal
It is a copy of "Love Story". For those of you who have read the novel or seen the English movie with same title "Love Story", don't watch this movie. The actors specially Himanshu Malik needs to go some acting school to do better. The credited cast lacks acting skills and they have spoiled the beauty of the movie. It could have been made better by taking some experienced cast.
Gol Maal (1979)
Best comedy I have ever seen
This is the best comedy I have seen so far. Neither has such a comedy ever been produced again, not it will be. Utpal dutt is just great and so is Amol Palekar. Two great actors and very well supported by Dina Pathak. Bollywood, why have you stopped making such excellent movies. I have seen it 20 times and each time I see it, I like it even more. I know almost all main dialogues of the movie now. Wondeful film and must watch. I would give it a 10/10.
Darna Mana Hai (2003)
Hopeless movie. don't waste ur time in watching this horrible movie
Its not scary, but a movie with no head and tail. It has weird stories in it. Imagine people eating apples and becoming apples after that. How funny. I couldn't stop laughing at the whole idea. Its not even a comedy. Is scary at times, specially towards the end, but the end is meaningless.
