			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the name of comedy, Sajid Khan’s <a href="http://bestindianfilms.com/index.shtml">Hindi Movie</a> Housefull  is a slap on your senses as the film sticks to the slapstick genre in every literal sense. It’s shocking that the director feels  electrocution scenes  are funny even in current times and stretches the sequence with no potential difference from  Tom and Jerry  cartoons. Humans go animated while animals are humanized as a Macaw squeals in Marathi, a tiger growls  shers  and a monkey slaps man – all absolutely unnecessary to the plot. Since there is no plotline in the first half, the tomfoolery and clowning is extended till the interval point. The hero stammers when he’s stressed out and the viewer is stressed out when the hero stammers. Barring some sporadic funny moments, when you aren’t much amused by the film, laughing gas is released in the climax to induce forced laughter.<br />
No pun but Aarush (Akshay Kumar) plays a  punauti  , which means he is blessed with the power of spreading  bad luck  wherever he goes. Friends Bob (Riteish Deshmukh) and Hetal (Lara Dutta) suggest he get married to change his fortune. They introduce him to girl-next-door Devika (Jiah Khan) who believes ‘  sharam aur laaj aurat ka gehna hota hai  ’. Next moment they are married. Next to that they are divorced. Finally the actual heroine Sandy (Deepika Padukone) enters and perhaps that’s when the makers realize too much time has been wasted on nothingness. So love is hurried between the lead couple amidst sweet nothings of how Aarush’s diabetic father died on consuming  kaju barfi.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.bestindianfilms.com/blog/housefull-movie-review/bollywood-movie/" rel="attachment wp-att-574"><img src="http://www.bestindianfilms.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/Bollywood-Movie-150x150.jpg" alt="" title="Bollywood Movie" width="150" height="150" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-574" /></a></p>
<p>Where’s the story you ask? Somewhere in the second half (thankfully)! What’s the story you ask? A  masala  mix of several potboilers (thanklessly). Hetal’s father Batuk (Boman Irani) who is not on talking terms with his daughter ever since her love marriage decides to pay her a visit in London. A comedy of error follows as Aarush is mistaken to be Hetal’s husband. The conflict is as old as Rajesh Khanna’s  Joroo Ka Ghulam  (1972) to Rishi Kapoor’s  Honeymoon  (1992). More confusion ensues with the entry of Sandy’s brother, Krishna (Arjun Rampal) as a fake family is set up to win his consent for the marriage. The setting is as ‘familiar’ as Hrishikesh Mukherjee’s  Golmaal  to Rohit Shetty’s  All The Best  (with Arjun almost recreating Sanjay Dutt’s part) or the more recent TV sitcom  Sajan Re Jhooth Mat Bolo  . Further Arjun and Akshay play  Sach Ka Samna  until the moment of truth arrives in the climax amidst laughing gas.<br />
While one doesn’t expect much from producer Sajid Nadiadwala ’s skills as a storywriter, the screenplay by Sajid Khan, Milap Zaveri and Vibha Singh is hugely disappointing for being patchy and contrived. One wonders whether the actors go overboard to make up for the weak writing (esp. in the first half) or whether the writing is intentionally shallow to allow the actors to clown around.<br />
There are some genuinely funny moments in the second half esp. Boman Irani sleepwalking through his portrayal of Gujarati  Sholay  . Unfortunately it fails to salvage the harm caused by the bland, boring and banal first half. Also this time Sajid fails to show the finesse of Farah Khan in pulling off spoofs.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.bestindianfilms.com/blog/housefull-movie-review/hindi-movie/" rel="attachment wp-att-575"><img src="http://www.bestindianfilms.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/Hindi-Movie-150x150.jpg" alt="" title="Hindi Movie" width="150" height="150" class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-575" /></a></p>
<p>Shankar Ehsaan Loy come up with a peppy and foot-tapping musical score. ‘ O Girl You’re Mine ’ is a breezy number while the ‘ Dhanno remix ’ is refreshingly recreated. But what’s with the ludicrous lyrics? ‘ Volume kum kar papa jag jayega ’ only complements the loud comedy of the film and ‘ Aaja tujhe heaven dikhaoungi ’ is certainly not hell-uva material. Vikas Shivraman’s cinematography is menthol cool, Farah Khan’s choreography is graceful and Aki Narula and Shabina Khan’s costume designs are trendy.</p>
<p>Both Akshay Kumar and Riteish Deshmukh are regular in their comic acts. Arjun Rampal is cast in a serious role and does well with the straight-faced expressions that his character demands. Lara Dutta is alluring. Deepika Padukone looks stunning. Jiah Khan pales in comparison. The gorgeous Jacqueline Fernandez adds to the eye-candy. Boman Irani induces the real funny moments. Chunky Pandey hams. Lilette Dubey is a pleasant change in a character usually designed for Kirron Kher. Daisy Irani is wasted.<br />
The <a href="http://www.bestindianfilms.com/indian-movie-telugu-industry.shtml">Bollywood Movie</a> Housefull ends up being a painful experience.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The thing about shallow people from the beau monde is that they shouldn&#8217;t be played shallowly when brought to the screen.<br />
Sonam Kapoor in a &#8216;tailor&#8217;-made role (where more moolah seems to have been spent on tailoring her chic outfits than on exploring the locations, sound sights scents and, yes, sense of this embarrassing world of excessive self-preening) gets the Jane Austen character right. Quite a leap for the actress.<br />
When she had played the confused lover-girl in Saawariya, Sonam had imposed her own natural-born confusions on the character &#8211; rendering it shaky and disembodied.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.bestindianfilms.com/blog/aisha-movie-review/ai1/" rel="attachment wp-att-533"><img src="http://www.bestindianfilms.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/ai1-150x150.jpg" alt="" title="ai1" width="150" height="150" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-533" /></a></p>
<p>In this <a href="http://bestindianfilms.com/index.shtml">Hindi Movie</a> Aisha, Sonam is far more in control of her character&#8217;s misguided emotional compulsions. The fact that the young actress knows this label-centric designer world of chic shenanigans so well, helps Sonam master and contour her character&#8217;s art of self-deception in a way the original author of the character would have approved.<br />
Sonam&#8217;s world harks back to Jane Austen&#8217;s giddy-headed British gentry class where match-making was not an idle chatter. It was religion. When placed in the neo-rich spiced-up politically-charged atmosphere of Delhi, Jane Austen&#8217;s characters seem to come alive in unexpected spurts of sassy splendour and unbridled joie de vivre. You can&#8217;t help laugh at these young, often-aimless, people&#8217;s self-importance.<br />
Let&#8217;s not forget that Jane Austen had applied great intellectual strength to her frail and shallow people. Aisha converts Austen&#8217;s world into a frail feisty frolicsome fashion fiesta shot with an empowering affection for the natural light that bathes these somewhat affected people.<br />
Debutante director Rajshree Ojha gets into this world of titillating trivia and designer dreams with a wink and smile that goes a long way in building a showcase around these metropolitan mannequins on a single-minded match-making prowl.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.bestindianfilms.com/blog/aisha-movie-review/a12/" rel="attachment wp-att-535"><img src="http://www.bestindianfilms.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/a12-150x150.jpg" alt="" title="a12" width="150" height="150" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-535" /></a></p>
<p>The casting is as dead-on as it can get. While the guys Abhay Deol, Cyrus Sahukar and Arunoday Singh play the Brain, Nerd and Hunk with absolute relish, it&#8217;s the girls who keep you chuckling and tch-tch-ing.<br />
Neha Dubey and debutante Amrita Puri put in pitch-perfect performances as sahelis bullied into alliances that seem manipulated on earth rather than arranged in heaven. They have a bright future ahead, single or not.<br />
But the film belongs to Sonam Kapoor, make no mistake of that. She makes the best of a rather rare opportunity for an Indian leading lady to be part of a <a href="http://bestindianfilms.com/index.shtml">Bollywood</a> film that salutes Victorian mores and Delhi&#8217;s elitist affectations in one clean cool sweep.<br />
Engaging and endearing &#8211; Aisha makes you wonder if there&#8217;s anything more important in the world than finding the right match.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.bestindianfilms.com/blog/aisha-movie-review/ai2/" rel="attachment wp-att-534"><img src="http://www.bestindianfilms.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/ai2-150x150.jpg" alt="" title="ai2" width="150" height="150" class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-534" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">When Kareena was in town recently to promote her much talked about bollywood film, Kambakkht Ishq, she was initially quite cooled out. Kambakkht Ishq is a forthcoming <a href="http://www.bestindianfilms.com/">Indian Bollywood film</a> directed by Sabbir Khan and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala.<a href="http://bestindianfilms.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/bollywood-film.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-182 alignright" title="bollywood-film" src="http://bestindianfilms.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/bollywood-film.jpg" alt="" width="203" height="142" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">The film, a remake of the 2002 Tamil film Pammal K. Sambandam, will feature <a href="http://www.bestindianfilms.com/indian-movie-action-in-bollywood.shtml">Akshay Kumar</a> and Kareena Kapoor in pivotal roles  along with actors Aftab Shivdasani and Amrita Arora in supporting roles.</p>
<p>Hollywood actors  Sylvester Stallone, Denise Richards and Brandon Routh will be appearing in cameos, reportedly playing themselves. Originally scheduled to release in December 2008, the film was postponed due to extensive production work and is now slated for a release on July 3, 2009.<a href="http://bestindianfilms.com/indian-movie-action-in-bollywood.shtml">Kambakkht Ishq</a> explores the relationship between two indviduals who are extremely different from each other.Akshay Kumar plays Viraj Shergill, a stuntman in Hollywood who thinks women are good only for two things&#8230;making love and making love.<br />
Simrita Rai ( Kareena Kapoor) is a firebrand who is more than able to stare down at the most arrogant male with her caustic wit and sardonic tongue..her firm belief &#8220;there&#8217;s no such thing as love&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">So what happens when the two people who hate each other the most meet at Simrita&#8217;s best friend Kamini&#8217;s and Viraj&#8217;s brother Lucky&#8217;s wedding ?&#8230;a wedding that both Viraj and Simrita are violently opposed to and desperate to stop.</p>
