The film has broken down all previous opening weekend collection records for 2009, a Yash Raj Films press release said.

Review of Bollywood movie Kaminey

Review of Bollywood movie "Newyork"

noreply@blogger.com (Sheetal) — Sat, 27 Jun 2009 19:05:00 +0000

The scenes in the movie highly reminded of what we have seen earlier. John's first scene saw him doing a Shah Rukh Khan (in Main Hoon Na) in the New York State University campus racing with a guy to pull the string of the American flag on the roof, although this time there was no near casualties. The pub scenes looked highly inspired by Karan Johar's Kal Ho Na Ho. John doing the building stunt reminded me of Hrithik in Lakshya. And Irrfan interrogating Neil was, well, let's just say he has been doing the FBI-slash-Police-Detective-slash-Inspector routine for quite some films now, notably Slumdog Millionaire, A Mighty Heart etc.

New York might be able to do business for the first few weeks but it will not have a big shelf life. It is no epic movie and nothing about the movie is what will make you watch it again. It's a one time watch. The song, 'Hai Junoon...' although will stay for some time.

Hence, the movie is not a college romance, nor is it an intense fast action thriller. It is a mixture of both. It's predictable and yet, you wouldn't still be ready to sleep while watching the film. It has it's moments of laughter and excitement although thinly.

So, if you go to watch the movie, that is if you really have a thing for Katrina or John or Neil, then, you should have your popcorn in the first half, because the second half becomes intense and you might block.

In Best Actress controversy, Jaya Bachchan has been found responsible for Ashutosh Gowariker's comments on the stage..

noreply@blogger.com (Sheetal) — Sat, 27 Jun 2009 18:47:00 +0000

Recently, Ashutosh Gowariker had raise questions over the selection of Best Actress award being given to Priyanka Chopra for 'Fashion' instead of Aishwarya Rai for 'Jodhaa Akbar' on the IIFA stage.

Jaya Bachchan has spoken out in the media that it was her belief to raise the question of 'Why Aishwarya has not received any award?' on the IIFA stage and had encouraged Ashutosh Gowariker to bring open their sadness.

Interestingly, Jaya Bachchan has not seen the movie 'Fashion' and hence has no idea about Priyanka's performance in the movie.

We wonder how she was able to make the conclusion that her bahu was better in the performance tha Piggy Chops without revieweing it??

Actually it seems to be a case of sasu-ma supporting bahu darling and not a reviewer judgement? This behaviour is highly immature and unfair.

King of Pop Michael Jackson is dead

noreply@blogger.com (Sheetal) — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 00:42:00 +0000

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Michael Jackson, the child star turned King of Pop who set the world dancing but whose musical genius was overshadowed by a weird lifestyle and sex scandals, died on Thursday, the Los Angeles. He was 50.

Pop star Michael Jackson was pronounced dead by doctors this afternoon after arriving at a hospital in a deep coma. Jackson had been taken ill at his home and found not breathing by paramedics who rushed him to a hospital.

The singer suffered a cardiac arrest. Jackson’s family, or spokespeople did not immediately confirm the news of his death for them.

Known as the "King of Pop," for hits that included "Thriller" and "Billie Jean," Jackson's dramatic, one-gloved stage presence and innovative dance moves were imitated by legions of fans around the world.

But Jackson's belief that "I am Peter Pan in my heart", his first choice for the company of children, his friendship with a chimp, his high-pitched voice and numerous plastic surgeries also earned him critics and the nickname "Wacko Jacko."

Jackson, who had lived as a virtual recluse since his acquittal in 2005 on charges of child molestation, had been scheduled to launch a comeback tour from London next month.

noreply@blogger.com (Sheetal) — Thu, 25 Jun 2009 19:43:00 +0000

Salman Khan is not single. He made this announcement loud and clear during his Sony TV’s show Dus Ka Dum

Playing Dus Ka Dum with Salman was Mallika Sherawat. And while Salman is famous for throwing googlies at his guests on the show, it seems Mallika was a tad too much for him to handle.

While Salman may have thought he will put Mallika in a tight spot by asking her personal questions, it was Salman who ended up being caught in the web. He had admitted that he is not single anymore.

Now is it because of Salman’s loyalties towards Miss Katrina Kaif or does he simply want to keep Mallika at bay?
