http://blog.dipraj.org Intellect.Inspired Mon, 01 Feb 2010 10:36:16 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en That is pretty much all of the fan-base has on offer for this mercurial and supremely talented guy after being served a two-match ban for ball tampering in the last one-day international against Australia. Yesterday was a rare sight, a well-galvanised team that was rallying behind its Captain – something I ... http://blog.dipraj.org/2010/02/01/im-afraid-afridi/ THE PLOT – I don’t quite remember the last time I saw a movie that delivered more on every count than it promised. 3 Idiots is not quite the Sholay of our times nor the Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge of the decade – but in its own way, it is much beyond ... http://blog.dipraj.org/2010/01/31/3-idiots-reviewed/ THE PLOT – Much was made of Auro and his class act before the release of this movie. While director Balki deserves credit for conceptualizing this film, where he misses out is the execution and the sustained interest in the movie. The plot revolves around a single mother, played (a class act) ... http://blog.dipraj.org/2010/01/31/paa-reviewed/ THE PLOT – Kurbaan was definitely one of the movies this season that created a lot of pre-release following. The plot of the movie can easily be mistaken to have been entirely inspired from Yash Raj Films’ New York, released earlier this year. The movie however saves a lot of weaknesses on the ... http://blog.dipraj.org/2010/01/08/kurbaan-reviewed/ THE PLOT – Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani finally offers me something I had hoped to see more than an year back – Katrina Kaif opposite Ranbir Kapoor. The plot is not much to speak about – a clichéd storyline so to speak with some good, some excellent and some sub-par performances. But ... http://blog.dipraj.org/2009/11/08/ajab-prem-ki-ghazab-kahani-reviewed/ THE PREMISE – Bachna Ae Haseeno should’ve been the first review to belong here. Somehow, the review did not get to see the light of your LCD and remained confined to the blog post archives folder – all the time, when I merrily kept hitting the keyboard for one movie or ... http://blog.dipraj.org/2009/11/08/bachna-ae-haseeno-re-viewed/ THE PLOT – London Dreams actually did not feature on my must-watch list this weekend, but then there was nothing else to watch (like all those days!) – so, here goes! I actually did not have an inkling of what the storyline was meant to be when the movie just about began, ... http://blog.dipraj.org/2009/11/08/london-dreams-reviewed/ THE PLOT – All The Best is supposed to be a full-length comedy flick and how I wish it were true. I actually sat through the movie only due to decent performances by a couple of characters like Sanjay Mishra (Apple Singh) and Bipasha Basu. The plot actually revolves around a comedy ... http://blog.dipraj.org/2009/11/08/all-the-best-reviewed/ THE PLOT – Well, we didn’t actually have much to do, so we just went in for some purist time-pass. The story isn’t much of an eye-opener, but Blue somehow just clings on and makes you just about stand the whole tale. The story revolves around marine-lines entrepreneur, his stand-out employee and ... http://blog.dipraj.org/2009/11/08/blue-reviewed/ THE PLOT – I have never been ever so optimistic (read hopeful) about a change in my fortunes than those moments when about half an hour into the movie – I began noticing the attires of the star cast on display. I really hoped and hoped and hoped the movie would ... http://blog.dipraj.org/2009/10/18/main-aur-mrs-khanna-reviewed/
