Don, Don Hindi movie reviews

“Don” is a fantastic movie from the seventies, purely because the entire concept of a gangster flick was a novelty. Much like the Beatles and Syd Barrett, you can’t appreciate Don if you don’t put yourselves in the seventies. When Don had to be remade for the Xbox generation, the team would have known that they were fighting a generation that was dominating the media.

When it came down to the star cast, it must have really been a no-brainer. As the man himself says, there are only two Khans, “Genghis Khan and Shahrukh Khan”. Shahrukh is the closest this generation would ever have to the Big B. Of course he has his Gay-spastic ways in his silly romantic capers, but he was still that man who could whip up frenzy before a release. He was that man who could give ten interviews in a day and make ten media savvy remarks in each. Shahrukh had to be “Don”.


Don begins in predictable fashion, with the story of the earlier movie. Bad Don dies, young bumpkin gets into his shoes to impersonate Don. A couple of women come and strut their wares. This is when the interval begins, and the 21st century Don really dawns. The story moves completely tangential to the original, with phenomenal fight scenes and cool car chases. Interesting twists in the tale that keep the viewer guessing, and a brilliant final sequence.

The coolest part of the movie, in my opinion, is the intelligent direction. There were some parts in the movie when I sat back and thought, “wait a minute.. could it be… ?”. In the last five minutes, I was proved right. There are hints throughout the movie. You just need to get hold of them, and you’ll have an extra-ordinary movie experience. Shahrukh makes bad look cool, after many years.
The advice to most people going to usual Hindi movies these days is, “Go on, It’s a good movie. Just leave your brains behind”. My advice to people who want to watch Don, “Go on. It’s a mind-blowing action thriller. And do take your brains along, and keep taking the hints. You’ll love it!"

Director : Dibakar Banerjee

New generation of comedy movies based on day-to-day activities of certain section of the society.Khosla Ka Ghosla is based on the real estate agents, property dealers, and their strong network comprising the law and order department in the cities.Overall a fun movie. Could have been better

The movie starts with KK Khosla (Anupam Kher) dreaming that he has died and his family has no effect of it on them. He has bought a plot in South Delhi for future of his son Chiraunji Lal aka Cherry (Parveen Dabbas) and family for Rs 30 Lakh spending all his savings on it. But then his plot is occupied by a builder Khurana (Boman Irani) who asks for Rs 15 lakh. Anupam tries to take help of police, politicians, NGOs etc who say that they will get him back his plo for Rs 12 lakhs with some extra money for them. He even tries to take back the plot by force taking the advice of his elder son Bunty (Ranveer Shourie).
Cherry then decides to do a tit-for tat trick with some help of his frnds on Khurana and and succeeds and then uses his money to get back the plot.
The story is different but sometimes slow paced. The movie does not have great music except for one song Chak De Phatte.
