Kashmakash
What redeems Kashmakash and finally makes it worth a lingering dekko is the warmth and romance that Rituprano Ghosh brings to his celluloid adapatation.

Karthik Calling Karthik
The film itself doesn’t lag behind in self-assurance. But the absence of what one may call an energetic exterior could well be mistaken by some viewers as an ingrained inertia, a malaise that the film’s protagonist suffers from.

Jodi Breakers
If the film works at all it’s because Madhavan and Bipasha make a cute couple and try to extract the maximum enjoyment from their under-written smart-on-top-shaky-at-the-bottom characters.

Ishqiya
How do we evaluate Ishqiya beyond its politically-charged verbally-lurid lunge at realism? Is the film to be applauded for forging a new language of expression? Or should that language have been used with more restrain and tact ?

Worth watching for its mix of the wacky and the more tender variety of laughter.

Game
Waltzing wickedly between the incredible and the inevitable Game succeeds in sustaining our interest right till the devilish denouement at the end.

Gali Gali Chor Hai
You have to bribe the audience to watch the characters getting high on the anti-corruption theme of this film.

Force
...a full-on action film with balls brawn and brains. It's the kind of virile cinema where action speaks louder than words.

Ekk Deewana Tha
The trouble with this elegantly-packaged but somewhat selfidulgently-edited love story is that it takes a very long to get to the point.

Dunno Y Na Jaane Kyun...
As far as scrutinizing a gay relationship is concerned, this ain't a patch on Ang Lee's Brokeback Mountain. But still...It tries.

Dhobi Ghat
...is like that rich tapestried melody whose metre and rhythm you cannot ever forget even though the lines may be forgotten.

De Dana Dan
De Dana Dan is not a film. It's a series of skits strung together to convey a sense of baggy fun and frivolous entertainment.

Damadamm
...has its nice sweet wholesome moments. It's one of those innocuous romcoms that neither leave you impressed nor cold.

Chance Pe Dance
Shahid brings out all the shades nuances and layers in the struggler’s inner life without bending the rules of commercial hero-giri. This is a far better performance than it outwardly seems.

Break Ke Baad
...emerges as one of those love stories with a potential that gets squandered in an attempt to be constantly clever at the cost of sustaining the sensitivity that the two lead players build into their relationship.

Atithi Tum Kab Jaoge?
Finally you aren’t watching a film about family ties but a film that ties up the family in reams and reams of comic chaos. Vulgarity and double-meanings strictly not admissible.
