BHAI Movie Story
Nagarjuna as Bhai is an underworld don in Hong Kong, comes to Hyderabad to save his partner David (Ashish Vidyarthi)’s business from an undercover cop Arjun (Prassanna). As he goes step by step procedure to find out who is the culprit leaking the important gang details, finds out Arjun has major link with his past.
Meanwhile, Radhika(Richa Gangopadhyay) falls in love in the first instance with Bhai and starts teasing him to the core. Things take a vital turn around when Bhai sees his family in trouble. To help his family Bhai turns as Event Manager and comes to make his sister Geeta (Zara shah)’s marriage. Will the undercover cop leave Bhai ? What is his relation with Bhai in his past ? Will Bhai accept richa love ? will his new role as Event Manager will it work out or is it the beginning of turmoil forms the rest of the storyline.
BHAI Movie Stars Performance
After Ragada Nagarjuna took some time making films like Damarukam, ShirdiSai & GreekuVeerudu. Now actor is back trying his luck at comercial genre this time with Bhai. Nagarjuna reminds us of his Don with his Bhai looks later shifts his base to sentimental family touch and give give deja vu of his character in King. Actor given his best, but lack of originality in his character his effort goes into vain.
Richa Gangopadhyay had nothing to do other than look pretty& groove to the music. There is no doubt that Brahmanandam & MS Narayana jokes are turning out to be too monotonous & stale, but they does manage to infuse a few laughs.
Sonu Sood, Ashish Vidyarthi and Prasanna were wasted in limited characters. Hamsa Nandini and Nathalia Kaur sizzled in the Item numbers. As for the remaining cast, all of them just sleep walked through their roles.
BHAI Movie Technicalities
The movie seemed to be taken the mould of yesteryear style. Bhai runs on the thin storyline, gives us deja vu of films like Basha (Younger brother turns out to be a Police officer), Boss (Flash back episode where hero’s father accidently kills a kid and lead actor underoes imprisonment) and Baadshah (As actor comes back to his family as Event Manager make them comfortable).
Bhai goes to prison and to get closer to his family he does everything he can. Explaining the rest of the story here won’t help making the story sound better. I seriously doubt whether Nagarjuna read the script before committing this movie.
The BG score was overdone, the songs by Devi Sri Prasad seemed okay passable, the script and dialogues were quite ordinary, the comedy scenes got continuous booing from the crowd and the fight scenes were honestly quite hilarious.
Editing could have been crispier. Half of the scenes in the flash back and Hong Kong could have been easily chopped. Even cinematography from Sameer Reddy was mediocre. The major asset of the technicalities is Production values of Annapurna Studious. They are grand in every frame.
BHAI – Analysis
First half of the film is cery ordinary and predictable. Even interval twist can be predicted. Second half counts on the family background but movie totally goes on the same lines of recent Baadshah. What movie was missing is a heart. Movie just made to cash on Nagarjuna’s family stardom. If the opening sequences had been much simpler and realistic, the film would have been accepted better.
A don coming to Hyderabad just to kill a small undercover cop is not justified in the script. Inspiration links in the story and un-pardonable songs sitautions made the film bitter. Nagarjuna’s Bhai has absolutely nothing to offer to movie lovers. But if at all, fans are expecting for an Diwali bonanza, I am sure this is going to make them pretty disappointed.
Cast: Rajkumar Yadav, Tigmanshu Dhulia, Kay Kay Menon Producer: Anurag Kashyap, Sunil Bohra, Ronnie Screwvala Director: Hansal Mehta Music Director: Karan Kulkarni Review Rating : 3.5/5
Hansal Mehta has directed this gritty drama, which is based on the life of slain lawyer and activist Shahid Azmi. The movie has been produced by Anurag Kashyap, Ronnie Screwvala and Siddharth Roy Kapoor. The film is hitting the screens on October 18th across India. Media members were invited for a special screening in Hyderabad today, so we are bringing this review ahead of its theatrical release.
Story :
The story of this film revolves around Shahid (Raj Kumar Yadav). The impressionable youngster dabbles in right wing ideologies and heads to POK, to join a terrorist training camp. However, the young Shahid is disillusioned with the philosophy of violence and jihad. After he escapes from the camp, he is picked by police officials as a suspect in a terrorist plot.
After being acquitted of the charges, Shahid decides to become a criminal lawyer. He starts fighting for the rights of people falsely accused of being terrorists under draconian anti-terrorism laws. While he becomes the darling of human rights advocates and the victims, the mood of the society is quite different. In the wake of rising communal violence and terror attacks, Shahid is targeted for his defence of people accused in terror plots.
Shahid endures personal attacks, a fraying marriage and even death threats in his fight for justice. What happens in the end? What price does Shahid pay for upholding the spirit of law? That forms the story of this movie. Star Performances:
Raj Kumar Yadav is an actor who manages to command charm even in the plainest of roles and now as he dons a role as hefty as Shahid, the actor puts up an enthralling performance with aplomb. Confidently the actor in each scene convinces you of his turmoil, his helplessness. It is almost celebratory to see him weaving Shahid with such strongly driven passion. I specifically loved the scene where he is vandalized outside court; he manged to convey through his eyes the pain that his past will never loosen its clutch on him.
Prabhleen Sandhu plays Mariam with an effortlessly pleasing air. The actress has a strong screen presence which manages to get her noticed despite being limited in an ineffective and shrunken role. Md Zeeshan Ayyub is brilliant yet again. After seeing him squeeze out enough laughs from us in Dhanush starrer Raanjhanaa, he is quainter and benign in this one. Playing Shahid’s older brother, the actor does quite a good job in rendering to the film a strong supporting cast.
Kay Kay Menon manages to put himself back in his delightful shoes. After settling for a host of unworthy roles, even in a cameo the actor is heavily impressive.
Plus Points :
Raj Kumar Yadav has done a great job in this film. He has portrayed the character of Shahid with a lot of conviction. We can feel the character’s anguish and desire to save people who are wrongly accused of being terrorists.
Prabhleen Sandhu is sweet and lovable, yet feisty at the same time. In the role of Mariam, she looks quite good in this movie. Kay Kay Menon is very effective in his cameo appearance.
The film has a very authentic and gritty feel. There is no sugary romance. There is no hyperbole. Just a simple and balanced presentation of the slain lawyer’s struggle against a society and judicial system that is heavily prejudiced.
The director manages to draw viewers right into the plot and by the end of the film, most people will root for Shahid’s crusade against an imperfect judicial system. Minus Points :
The movie can get a little slow at times and the story does not have any entertainment quotient whatsoever. So if you are looking for simple popcorn entertainment, you will be disappointed.
The film looks and feels like it has been made on a shoestring budget. Perhaps, with a bigger budget and better production values, this film would have been a lot better. Mariam’s character should have been developed further. Technical Aspects :
Cinematography is very average. Editing could have been better. As the director said in a number of interviews, most of the dialogues were improvised on set and this is quite apparent. Karan Kulkarni’s music is ok.
Hansal Mehta’s direction deserves applause. It is quite tough to narrate a known story in such a gripping and gritty fashion. Verdict :
Shahid is a movie that definitely deserves a watch. It is quite raw, intense and engaging. There are no big stars and there is no entertainment, so be prepared for that. If you are looking for a realistic and serious cinematic experience this week, do check out ‘Shahid’.
Movie: Gravity (Hollywood) Starring : Sandra Bullock, George Clooney Director : Alfonso Cuaron Producer : Alfonso Cuaron, David Heyman Music Director : Steven Price Release date : 11 October 2013 Rating : 4.5/5 Verdict : Awesome Breath taking movie. Must watch
George Clooney and Sandra Bullock teamed up for the sic-fi adventure flick ‘Gravity’. The movie has been directed by Alfonso Cuaron and Warner Brothers studio distributed it. ‘Gravity’ has been receiving tons and tons of critical acclaim across the world. The movie is releasing tomorrow in India and premiere shows have been held on Thursday night in all the major Indian cities. Let us check out the film now.
Story :
Dr. Ryan Stone (Sandra Bullock) is a mission specialist who is on her first trip into outer space. She is tasked with the service of the Hubble Telescope and she is accompanied on this spacewalk by the fun loving Mission Commander Matthew Kowalski (George Clooney). Matthew is a space veteran and this is his final mission.
A routine spacewalk turns into a nightmare when space debris from a blown up russian satellite heads their way at terrifying speed. Flying debris in outer space can be devastatingly dangerous and Dr. Ryan Stone experiences this first hand.
The debris destroys the Space Shuttle and claims a few casualties. Only Dr. Stone and Matthew survive. Together, they must battle falling oxygen levels, overwhelming odds and equipment failure. Their only hope?? The International Space Station and the Chinese Space Station.
Can they reach the ISS or the Chinese Space Station in time? That is the story of this sic-fi thriller
Plus Points :
The movie can only be described as a breathtaking trip into outer space. The visuals are so overwhelmingly phenomenal. After James Cameron’s ‘Avatar’, this is the first film that is truly worth watching in 3D.
George Clooney and Sandra Bullock have done a great job in the film. But their acting skills play second fiddle to the storytelling ability of Alfonso Cuaron and the cinematography of Emmanuel Lubezki.
The zero gravity simulation is perfect. Objects and people float around exactly as they should and nothing seems artificial. Attention to detail is phenomenal. In one scene, Sandra Bullock loses hope and cries. The tears from her eyes form round droplets and float around her, just as they would in real life.
There are no loopholes in the plot. In fact, it is quite an achievement to narrate a simple and linear storyline like this in such a thrilling manner. Despite the stunning 3D effects and the grand visuals, emotional connect never takes a backseat. Viewers will connect strongly with Sandra Bullock’s character. Her fears become our fears and her triumphs will make us cheer.
Minus Points :
There is nothing bad about this film. If I have to look for a fault, perhaps it would be George Clooney’s limited screen presence.
Technical Aspects :
Each and every technical department has performed exceptionally in the film. The cinematography is outstanding, like I already said. Editing is neat and clever. Background score is perfectly in sync with the emotion of the scene and the dialogues are very nice.
Alfonso Cuaron has set a new benchmark for screenplay and direction with this movie. It will be a big disappointment if he does not pick up the oscar for Best Director.
Verdict : There are good films and then there are great films. But very rarely, we might just be lucky enough to watch a film that sets a new standard for filmmaking. ‘Gravity’ is one such movie. This film is a once in a lifetime experience. Do watch ‘Gravity’ in the best theater that is available in your city. It is a breathtaking journey into outer space
