Shahrukh Khan versus Aamir Khan..Aamir Khan calls SRK a dog in his blog!
2008-05-15 13:41:59
Shahrukh Khan is a wizard of wit; he is known to come up with pearls of spontaneity that can stump any of his colleagues. He spares no one- living, dead or Amar! The only one who can really take the competition from SRK is Aamir Khan, his friendly enemy who has been running neck to neck since the past 15 years. When Aamir latched on to the idea of using a blog, Shahrukh Khan stated that he is too busy for blogs and that he didn’t like to extend a personal side of him through blogs. But the baadshah will have to do some rethinking as his colleagues, detractors are going hammer and tongs subtly or otherwise, through the uncensored medium called blogging. The blog post of reeks of Aamir Khan’s attempt at getting SRK’s goat. Checking out some of the lines in his blog: “I’m sitting under a tree, on the edge of a valley, approximately 5000 feet above sea level. The river Krishna flows far below us snaking its way among the Sahyadri mountains. A cool breeze is blowing, jannat ...

Movie review Bhootnath, Bhootnath ready to shock viewers away from the theatres
2008-05-10 07:44:27
Bhootnath is kiddish rather than being a movie for kids. If you want to watch Big B making faces, rather than emoting, watch Bhootnath. Bhootnath disappoints grossly and add one more to the disappointing flops that Bollywood has generated this year. The story: It is about a child’s encounter with the friendly ghost of the house. As you know it, the Bhoot is only visible by the child and the ghost is always there to help the kid in every scene except for one. The kid (Banku) has a doting mom in the form of Juhi Chawla and a dad in the form of SRK(who seems to have given just three odd days to shoot the movie). Shahrukh Khan works in a cruise liner and mostly interacts with the kid by phone. One comes to know about the ghost’s sad story which coincides with Baghban released some years ago. Mr. Bhootnath was a doting father whose son(Priyanshu) became busy with his career in the west and couldn’t call his parents on time. I fail to understand what is a cardinal sin if the ...

Why is it good for Bollywood actors and directors to blog, the benefits of Bollywood personalities blogging!
2008-05-02 21:18:05
Increasingly, a lot of Bollywood personalities are turning to blogging. It is quite worthwhile for actors, directors or even any famous personality to opt for blogging; the simple reason being it renders a distinct personal touch. The opinion of the celebrity is not diluted, it is raw and crisp; as real as the person who writes it. It is said when a message passes from a source and exchanges various hands(or mouths), they attain a different proportion altogether when it reaches the object. Such things do not happen when a Bollywood personality blogs sincerely. When Bollywood filmstars blog, they are directly connected with their fans, there is no middle –man involved. People discover the real you, different from what the media and gossip magazines project. Blogs of Bollywood stars reflect their experiences, their challenges, their joy and also views on various topics. Such blogs also make fans realize whether there is more to an artiste’s cerebrum than just “their” films. ...

Yash Raj films losing ground after Tashan's flop
2008-04-30 07:55:14
Dunno how much of that is true, but if Yash Chopra does not reprimand his son Aditya Chopra, the audience certainly will. Yash Raj films who has had an illustrious tradition of making some of the most successful movies have bitten dust since the last two years. Of late, YashRaj movies have been “all style, no substanceâ€. Tashan is the biggest flop of the year 2008. Last year too Yash Raj had made dismal movies like Lagaa Chunari Mein Daag, Aaja Nachle, Jhoom Barabar Jhoom and Tara Rum Pum. Tashan has not only suffered at the hands of the people and critics, but due to the breakdown of negotiations, the movie did not even release in multiplexes. The real reason for the poor show of Yash Raj films, barring a Hum Tum and a Chak De India, is lack of good content. Even Dhoom 2 inspite of being succesful had poor content. Aditya Chopra may have thought style usually wins, but then everyday is no Sunday. It certainly did not work for Tashan. Aditya Chopra is also responsib ...

Why Movies Do Not Get a Second Chance
2008-04-23 21:58:12
Just a couple of days ago, I happen to see two movies that I had seen much earlier in the theatre-Life in a..Metro and Traffic Signal. When I had seen both of these movie for the first time in the theatre, I felt that they were bland. Life in a. ..Metro looked far-fetched, and Traffic Signal did not have a moving plot. It seemed like the story revolved round and round the traffic signal without going ahead. But incidentally, one of my friends had liked both of the films and since I appreciate his choices in life, I decided to give those movies a second look. Boy! I was thrilled. The characterizations, the performances and the sensitive moments in both the films hit me. Both Traffic Signal and Life in a...Metro were unconventional by typical Bollywood standards, which is why I may not have liked them, the first time around. Both Anurag Basu(Life in a…Metro) and Madhur Bhandarkar(Traffic Signal) touched subjects that were not dealt before. They handled the complexities of various c ...

Anything for cheap publicity and money
2008-04-20 21:42:22
The famous tabloid Mumbai Mirror exposed how Malaika Arora and her husband took the newspaper and readers for a ride by telling lies about their divorce . Malaika Arora even went to quote that her husband was remarrying someone else. News about the high profile divorce flashed in newspapers and several websites. However Mumbai mirror on the very next day, proved that the divorce thing was just one big circus, a shot by the two people at taking cheap publicity. The newspaper had recorded their versions on tape and now the stars(?) had no answer. The newspaper stated that both Malaika and Arbaaz Khan had done this just for money. The couple who are very much together were asked to do so by a cosmetics company that was on its way to start a skin-care product to rake up a story. Really anything goes for money! In fact, the tabloid also came in for criticism for highlighting this inconsequential piece of news when there were far more serious news in the country like the unfortunate death o ...

I do not liked to be called an item girl (but it feels nice to see the audience all worked up, when they are usually sleep in the rest of the movie)I have heard about casting couch but thankfully I have never been propositioned.(my producer really liked my "performance")I had to expose because the script demanded it. (I am trying to get creative here)We are just friends (we like to kiss and make out..i mean make up)This role is different (so is the roll i am eating right now)Readers may write in with more cliches.

Lots of suing around happening in Bollywood
2008-04-17 21:53:37
People in Bollywood are suing around. First it was the news of Ram Sampath suing Rakesh Roshan for lifting his track “Thump” for the movie Krazzy 4. Ram Sampath was right on his count and Rakesh Roshan was unfortunate because he had been informed by Sony Ericson through a letter that the track may be taken. Later when Ram sued Rakesh Roshan, Sony Ericsson stated that it was a mistake on their part. As a result, Rakesh Roshan had a hefty price to pay(read Rs.2 crores). Suing is fine but only when it matters, not for trivial reasons. Like the one where Celina Jaitly dropped a bombshell ofa news by stating one fine day that she wishes to sue Pooja Bedi for calling her delusional. Everyone has a right to make a point. For that matter, both Pooja Bedi, Celina Jaitly and even the likes of Shahrukh Khan get thousands of blog posts with cuss words and accusatory statements, not to mention sleazy stuff that can make a monk jump from a mountain. But then, most stars take it in their stri ...

Aamir Khan-Ace Khan, Created for better things!
2008-04-11 21:48:21
One of the hottest contenders in Who is the Best among Khans, is a person who is in an institution all by himself, the one man force that entertains, educates and inspires-the ace Aamir Khan!Everything that Aamir touches in Bollywood, turns to gold or rather profits at the box office. It is hard to find out what role of Aamir is better,- actor, a producer, a screen writer or a director. Aamir Khan who lives by logic and loves creativity, has always viewed cinema as a medium for change or a platform that should set people thinking as much as it could entertain. He has always maintained that he would like to associate with an idea, which is commercially viable; in a recent interview, he had confessed that he woudn’t like a producer to sell his house to recover the losses from a movie. The ace Aamir Khan had a quiet debut in Holi(1984) but created a romantic furore in 1988 with Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak. The trend setter that he is, Aamir Khan changed the action environment of the 80s ...

Shahrukh Khan-The King Khan, He Stops at Nothing!
2008-04-11 21:46:07
The topic 'Who is the Best among Khans?' is incomplete without the King Khan, Shahrukh KhanShahrukh Khan is an inspiration to anyone who believes that an outsider from the film industry can make it big in Bollywood. Perhaps one of the best communicators in Bollywood and gifted with loads of wit, he is a film magazine’s delight. Shahrukh Khan knows how to keep everyone happy and still walk away with a smile. He keeps a win-win approach in the industry. Shahrukh Khan thinks beyond films, he wants to make an impression in every conceivable field, be it sports, television, advertising or business. Normal is boring; SRK says and does everything within and beyond his reach. Shahrukh Khan earned a good fan base in his initial part of his career because of people who identified him from serials and identified with him as a small town actor on his way to make big. Make big, he did and how! Shahrukh Khan took on a role of a villain in Baazigar which was hated and avoided by the likes of ...

Salman Khan- The Rockstar of Bollywood.
2008-04-10 10:28:07
In sequence to the post, Who is the best among Khans?, we present the next nomination-rockstar Salman Khan. Though Salman Khan had a quiet debut in Biwi Ho To Aisi(1998), his classy act in Maine Pyar Kiya(1989) created an impression that showed that he is the future of Bollywood. However, barring a Saajan, Salman Khan did not have a single box office success till 1994. There was a time when he was called the jinxed actor and except for teenage girls who were besotted by the handsome Khan, no really bothered to watch his movies. Until Hum Aapke Hain Kaun gave a second lease of life to his career. The year 1994 was Salman Khan’s year because he gave two of the biggest superhits ever for Bollywood, Karan Arjun and Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! He managed to get a hit every year from 1996 to 1999 like Judwaa, Pyaar Kiya Toh Daarna Kya, Biwi Number 1 and Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam .But the flops continued too, and most of Salman Khan began to fall like nine-pins after 1999. Between 1999 and 200 ...

Saif Ali Khan to endorse Airtel, 'races' up the corporate ladder!
2008-04-07 11:53:05
Fresh from the success of Race, Saif Ali Khan has won himself a lucrative contract with Airtel, th mobile phone giant. Saif Ali Khan stands to be the third brand ambassador of the company after Sachin Tendulkar and Shahrukh Khan. Incidentally, girlfriend Kareena Kapoor also represents Airtel.Saif Ali Khan has the look and the image that matched the youthful yet corporate image of Airtel. So Saifu has been roped in as the new brand ambassador for Airtel. In fact, the lucrative contract did not lap easily on Saif Ali Khan's lap. There were three main contenders to win the Airtel contract, Akshay Kumar, Hrithik Roshan and Saif Ali Khan. The public survey carried out won Saif Ali Khan the highest number of votes, which confirmed Airtel's decision. So there it is, Saif Ali Khan has won the race, hands down!

Who is the best among Khans?-Why Saif Ali Khan rocks!!
2008-04-05 19:36:43
Shahrukh Khan is called King Khan, Aamir is the Ace Khan, Salman Khan is a Rockstar while Saif Ali Khan is the stylish Khan. But among the Khans who rock the box office and are going strong with every passing movie... which of the Khans is actually the most versatile actor? Who is the best among the four Khans-Shahrukh, Salman, Aamir or Saif? Who has the chance of going strong in the next five-six years?For the first in the four post series, let us look at the most stylish and alluring of them all-Saif Ali Khan.Saif Ali Khan is the USP of Race, they say. From being one of the most improved actors in the 90s to being one of the best actors of the current decade, Saif Ali Khan has surely come a long way. In fact, when I recall Saif’s debut in Parampara, he looked like a wimpy excuse of an actor in front of Aamir Khan. He looked totally lost in the movie and could have won the award for the worst actor. His voice was that of a crow(I remember a journalist saying that Saif needs to quit ...

Kareena Kapoor or Katrina Kaif, who is the Queen of Bollywood?
2008-04-03 06:06:46
The war heats up between Kareena Kapoor and Katrina Kaif. Who is hotter and talented between Katrina Kaif and Kareena Kapoor? Kareena Kapoor who received a lot of praise and awards galore for her performance in Jab We Met looks like the next Queen of Bollywood. Only... if Katrina Kaif gets out of her way. Salman Khan’s woman is proving to be a worthy competitor to Saif Ali Khan’s girlfriend. Kareena Kapoor recently snapped an enviable Rs. 6 crore deal from TV18 for a Priyadarshan movie. She also commands most of the major endorsements. But then Katrina Kaif is not far behind in RACE(no pun intended!). Katrina Kaif has been called the lucky mascot for Bollywood. In recent times, whatever she has touched has turned gold. She has given back to back hits(5 hits in a row). They include Namastey London, Apne, Partner,Welcome and Race, this year. Katrina Kaif is hugely popular with the opposite sex and there are many who feel that she is the most beautiful girl in the wor ...

Even the Weirdest of Scripts Reach Bollywood Stars!
2008-04-01 06:46:43
Day in and day out, Bollywood actors have to face difficult, worst and weird scripts. Here are some of the worst or weirdest script offers given to Bollywood stars(and how they reacted to them): Akshay Kumar’s worst script offer: A director had come to Akshay Kumar with a script which was normal till the interval. After that the story goes like that the character played by Akshay goes to the jail and then some guy in the prison rapes him. Akshay Kumar was shocked. He told the director, “Sir, all the best to you. But I am not doing this classic”. Hema Malini’s worst script offer: Once a director told Hema Malini that he had a superb script in which she would play Jeetendra’s wife in the film. He said that Jeetendra would die and a younger version would appear in a double role, as his son. The young looking Jeetendra would romance Rati Agnihotri, while Hema would be sitting in a wheel chair and watching the proceedings. Hema Malini asked him if Jeetendra could get a do ...

Movie Review Race: Race- Abbas Mustan in top form!
2008-03-25 03:20:13
In my previous post, I had stated how director duo Abbas Mustan badly needed to up their quality thanks to some of their last few flops. Race however can bring them again in the top league.Thriller directors Abbas Mustan have certainly hit gold with Race! Race is a heady thriller and easily one of the best movies on ‘oneupmanship’ in recent times. Many felt that this could be an original script but unfortunately it isn’t. Race has its origins in a lesser known 1998 Hollywood film Goodbye Lover which is as slow as a lame duck. But apna Race is a slick flick. Race follows a standard Abbas Mustan pattern of thrillers with characters revealing their murkier, darker side as the subject moves forth. Thankfully, the first half of Race is not boring as it was in some of the previous Abbas Mustan films. Some of their movies like Naqaab and Ajnabee could have well, omitted their first half-halves. Okay, let’s cut to the chase, I mean the Race..Race has Akshaye Khanna’s character ...

Abbas-Mustan need to RACE up now
2008-03-17 15:09:44
Thriller directors Abbas Mustan may still be the most wanted ones in the genre of suspense and thrillers but their quality is going down with every successive movie. I happened to see one of their earlier movies(their first suspense thriller) Khiladi on my DVD. The movie is simply mindblowing with the right elements of comedy and suspense. No wonder, it was a big hit when it released in 1992. iT still would have been a huge hit if it released now also. Khiladi is one of the best suspense movies in India. No one who has seen the movie for the first time can ever guess that the killer is Anant Mahadevan(okay I said it, big deal! Everyone has watched Khiladi) From a high on content, musical suspense Khiladi, Abbas Mustan followed it up with Baazigar in 1993 which pirouetted Shahrukh Khan to star status and earned him his first Filmfare Best Actor Award. Baazigar was good enough and the next Daraar(starring Arbaaz Khan who won the Best Filmfare Villain Award in 1996) was also passa ...

Why it does not make sense to make historical movies in India
2008-03-14 13:26:50
We have seen it in Asoka. We have seen it in Rising-Mangal Pandey. We saw it happening all over again in Jodhaa Akbar. No doubt, Jodhaa Akbar was a well made movie, albeit a long length. But then historically themed movies never do the best business in India, barring Mughal-e-Azam of yesteryears. Historical movies in India are always embroiled in some sort of controversy. It has been always said that negative publicity is good publicity but it ain’t that good when people pull the movie down from the theatres and do not allow it to release under any cost. The mindset with historical movies is that youngsters are plain bored with historical stories and the older members of the populace always find something odd and conflicting in the story. While the younger generation hardly gives a damn, the older lots are generally the first ones to scream “history is distorted, facts are convoluted”. Since historical facts cannot be readily and comprehensively verified, it is juicy fodder fo ...

Aamir Khan to endorse Samsung Phones
2008-03-14 13:23:18
Today, 14 March’08 is the birthday of the supremely talented Aamir Khan. He turns 43 but still looks every bit in his 20s. The actor will don a bald pate for his role in Ghajini, which should release later this year. Aamir Khan will also be endorsing Samsung mobile phones. So it is Shahrukh Khan for Nokia, Hrithik Roshan for Sony Ericsson, Abhishek Bachchan for Motorola and now Aamir Khan for Samsung. Aamir Khan reportedly stated in a Rediff interview that he was convinced about the product and the brand. The amazing array of phones that were shown to Aamir has made him understand that Samsung phones are indeed way ahead of market in terms of sheer design, quality and technology. Aamir Khan’s deft craftsmanship is not transparent only in movies but they are also visible in his ad endorsements. Be it those Coke Ads with Aamir in different avatars, the Innova Ad or the touching Timex Ad, his ads do impress. Let’s hope there is something to look out for in the Sam ...

Similarity between Shahrukh Khan and Aamir Khan
2008-03-12 21:19:09
Both Shahrukh Khan and Aamir Khan are the show-stoppers of the nation. The King is different from the Ace but both have played a huge role in giving the most successful, interesting and entertaining films in the past 17 years. Let us look at the similarity between Shahrukh Khan and Aamir Khan: Both are superstars and equally popular.Both SRK and Aamir Khan have an average release of 2 movies every year.Both Shahrukh Khan and Aamir Khan have given their best performances with Ashtuosh Gowariker.Both of them looked stylish and hep in Farhan Akhtar's movies...Aamir for Dil Chahta Hai and SRK for Don-The Chase BeginsBoth are of the same age, 42.Both SRK and Aamir Khan gave two of the biggest hits of 2007-Om Shanti Om(SRK) and Taare Zameen Par(Aamir Khan)Both played different but successful roles in 2007-Aamir as a director and Shahrukh Khan as a producer.Both have had “Kiran” in their lives-Shahrukh Khan “on screen” Darr and Aamir Khan “offscreen” (his wife)Dear readers, if y ...

Jodhaa Akbar, first hit of the year 2008?
2008-03-12 21:18:34
Jodhaa Akbar has by and large has elicited a mixed response from viewers. Jodhaa Akbar has reportedly had an 80 percent response week and earned Rs. 24.75 crore at the first week. Add to this, the overseas collection and Jodhaa Akbar has made Rs. 38.5 crore. Compare Jodhaa Akbar to the last year’s biggest blockbuster Om Shanti Om, and the movie stands nowhere near the picture ( no pun intended). The figure earned by Jodhaa Akbar, according to Times of India is lower than the low on intellect “Welcome” that had a stupendous opening of Rs 39 crores within a matter of 5 days. From second week, Jodhaa Akbar has experienced a drop in collection but the movie continued unperturbed till last week. It is believed that the box office status of Jodhaa Akbar can be likened to the mixed bag hit of 2007, Guru.

Shahrukh Khan and Akshay Kumar at Filmfare Awards
2008-03-05 21:25:14
I happened to lay my hand on the issue of Mid-day dated 28 Feb’ 2007, where Akshay Kumar was reported to have taken a dig at SRK’s expense and that a cold war was evident. I believed the story like many and being a person of average intelligence, became party to the rumors floating around. We understood how wrong we were when the 53rd Annual Filmfare awards 2008 was actually telecast on TV.Here is a pure case of journalism going over the top and exaggerating things. This may be a small matter; an inconsequential one but it just goes to show that print media can write just about anything(most of it untrue) to create sensationalism and spread wrong signals.On February 23rd’08 Mid-day, the famous newspaper in Mumbai reported that the digs made by Saif and Shahrukh went so far that Akshay Kumar was clearly irritated. According to the report by Mid-day, Akshay was so bugged by the comments that he actually took hold of the mike and said “Shah Rukh, your wife had called me yesterday ...

Filmfare Awards 2008 announced, 53RD Fair One Filmfare awards, it is really a “fair one”?
2008-02-24 10:10:31
"I amfeeling likeMonjolika tonite" Filmfare awards 2008 are finally out. Akshay Kumar fans are in for disappointment as he did not win a single award. We had predicted that he’d get the Best Actor in a Comic Role for atleast one of the 5 back to back hits he had given. Sadly the category itself was scrapped out this time. It is ironical because comedy was the toast of the year 2007. Ditto for the Filmfare Award in a Negative Role, there was no award itself…God knows why, Viveik Oberoi and Arjun Rampal who were supposed to be favorites in this category have not got their due. Now for the report card. …Shahrukh Khan won the Filmfare Best Actor award 2008 for his underplayed role of a hockey coach in Chak De India. This time Shahrukh Khan joins Dilip Kumar as the person who has won the highest number of Filmfare Best Actor awards ever. Kareena Kapooor won the Filmfare Best Actress Award 2008 for her role in Jab We Met. She got the ...

Movie Review Jodhaa Akbar: Jodhaa Akbar has class but….
2008-02-17 17:52:25
Many happy returns of the year(not just a day) for Ashtuosh Gowariker for directing Jodhaa Akbar very well. The movie did take a long time in its making but the outcome is worth it. However, quite expectedly, you cannot anticipate the masses to really love the movie. The first half of the movie is rather long(the movie itself is 3 and a half hours in length) and there are some scenes in the first half which seem to be long-drawn. They could well have been trimmed. Technicalities: Full marks to Ashutosh and his team including script writers K.P. Saxena and Haider Ali who have worked hard and meticulously to come up with the mood and the feel of the Moghul era at the screenplay level itself. Music by A.R.Rahman, including the background score is relevant and does not overwhelm the movie. The artwork by Nitin Desai is first-rate. But the main hero of the film is Ashutosh Gowariker who has shot some scenes with brilliance. The song picturizations including the title track “Jalaluddi ...

U, Me aur Hum inspired by the Notebook?
2008-02-15 20:33:39
Ajay Devgan has turned director with U, Me aur Hum. It will be a family show with Kajol and Ajay Devgan starring in the film. If reports and rumors are to be believed, U, Me aur Hum has been inspired by the Hollywood hit The Notebook. The script of the movie The Notebook is an adaptation of the novel ‘The Notebook’ written by Nicholas Spark. It is an epic romance of an old man who reads out from an old pale notebook to an old handicapped woman whom he regularly visits. The old man tells her of the story of a couple who were separated by World War II, and then reunited seven years later. Although her memory has given way, the words of the elder man awakens her to the cherished love they used to share. It remains to be seen how they have incorporated Indian elements in U, Me aur Hum. The mood of U, Me aur Hum is romantic with humor ingrained throughout the movie. Apart from the lead cast, th movie also stars Isha Sharvani, Sumeet Raghavan and Divya Dutta. Incidentally, the musi ...

Five Point Someone to be made with Aamir Khan
2008-02-15 20:31:36
----> I am someone with 5 points!Aamir Khan and Kareena Kapoor will team up together for the first time in Raj Kumar Hirani’s film, an adaptation of the most successful youth novel in India Five Point Some. The book Five Point Someone written by Chetan Bhagat is pacy and humorous at the same time with a “Dil Chahta Hai” feel to it. The story is about three guys Ryan, Alok and Hari(which may be played by Aamir Khan) who are trapped in a rut called IIT. It is a warm story about friendship and romance with an IIT background. The script the movie based on Five Point Someone had exchanged several hands. The role had first gone to Shahrukh Khan, who refused it later. It was rumored that SRK refused the movie because he did not like the allegation which Vidhu Vinod Chopra(who is the producer) about SRK’s movie Paheli. We don’t really know if SRK can do that but then the point is SRK walked out. The script then went to Ranbir Kapoor who was reportedly not happy with the role. As o ...

Aamir Khan's is heading in the right DIRECTION
2008-02-14 20:53:47
" I wonder why people look at my hair every time I say CUT "Aamir Khan in Taare Zameen Par has demonstrated unique flair for direction. He is one person who will never let his fans down and will take every step to see that each scene is an institution by itself. There have been speculations that Aamir Khan has directed(ghost directed, interferred, gave inputs-words flow thick and fast) some of his earlier movies too which the actor has denied. There have been a lot of filmmakers who have stated that Aamir Khan's inputs are always to the betterment of the film. The best example is Taare Zameen Par ...

Aamir is making a movie called Delhi Belly which will be directed by Swedish director Robert Nylund. As of now the movie is in the pre-production phase. The movie has an intriguing story set in the backdrop of Delhi. Aamir Khan in fact wanted to play the character called Nitin the movie. However Aamir has decided to take a chill-pill because the past few months have been quite hectic for him.

Filmfare Awards 2008? A 'calculated' prediction on Bollywood Awards 2007
2008-02-10 07:38:08
--->This year I am as effective as SRK!Fast forward yourself a few months from now to the spree of Bollywood Awards 2007.By now I am habituated to the way awards are handed out to Bollywood films and film personalities year after year (no I ain't talking about buying ‘em). Whether it is Filmfare Awards, Screen Award, Zee Cine Awards, Sansui Awards, Stardust award, Moonlitnite award (okay the last one does not exist) we know the winners are more or less the same. Except that some award functions are a little more biased (remember Zee Cine Awards giving the best movie to Gadar once when Lagaan hogged the limelight, simply because Gadar was produced by Zee entertainment), while there are other award shows that give a best movie award to a different movie just to ‘appear’ different.The best of the lot however is the Filmfare Award which seeks to satisfy everybody (even Aamir Khan) by giving awards to one and all of the bright fraternity. Filmfare excels in giving special awards if th ...
