#TanuWedsManuReturns(Hindi) Rating: * * * ½ Wild Enchantment. Kangana Ranaut’s sterling ‘double’ turn in this fantastic romedy will keep you rollicking in the aisles right through. The wildly imagined plot is held strong by superbly toned and tuned ensemble performances, an earthy rootedness in milieu, wickedly funny dialogues and smart use of music-both old and new! Anand L Rai has a winner on his hands-no doubts about that!  #Madhavan #KanganaRanaut #AnandLRai #MohdZeeshanAyub #JimmyShergill #SwaraBhaskar #RajeshSharma #DeepakDobriyal #EijazKhan #RaindropSolutions #ErosInternational #ColourYellowPictures

#Surkhaab(Hindi) Rating: * * ½ A film that details the illegal immigrant story with some thriller elements but handled in a style that neither brings on the thrills nor allows for any great emotional involvement. Strong on story and performances but everything else is oft-kilter. Lead actress Barkha Madan probably knew this wouldn’t get her anywhere –probably that’s why she preferred to be annointed a Buddhist nun instead. #BarkhaMadan #SumitSuri #KanzaFeris #VineetaMalik #NareshGosain #SanjayTalreja #MoesArtPR #GoldenGateCreationsIndia #PVRDirectorsRare #PVRPictures

#Extraordinari(Hindi) Rating: *1/2 Ordinary pickings. The story had potential but the treatment which reeks of opportunism and seeks to capitalize on a bohemian set of values doesn’t come-off as something worthy of patronage.  #RituparnaSenGupta #ShahbaazKhan #SatyajitDesai #SunandaShyamalMitra #SanjayBhowmickPR #TheMagiqTouch

#Poltergeist(English) Rating: * * ½ An ineffectual revisit of the 1982 classic effects laden supernatural event movie that saw the teaming up of Director Tobe Hooper(The Texas Chainsaw Massacre) with Steven Spielberg producing one of the best paranormal thrillers in contemporary times- one that became a benchmark for future horror thrillers. This one fails to earn it’s strikes!

 Hindi Film Review

Fighting shy of Action, Pace and thrills
surkhaab movie के लिए चित्र परिणाम
Film: Surkhaab
Cast: Barkha Madan, SumitSuri , KanzaFeris ,VineetaMalik NareshGosain
Director: Sanjay Talreja

Rating: * * ½
 surkhaab movie के लिए चित्र परिणाम
The story is rooted in reality but the treatment does not allow for any great affect. That’s the unfortunate reaction that Sanjay Talreja’s sophomore effort ‘Surkhaab’ brings forth.
Given the storyline of illegal immigration and human trafficking, definitely much more could have been done with the technique and telling. Sanjay Talreja did not  appear to be clear as to which route he wanted to take- the emotionally affecting immigrant experience or the thrill seeking actioner. He in fact tries for both and as a result fails to garner affect.

‘Surkhaab’ is basically a  story of  a martial arts specialist and athlete, Jeet( Barkha Madan) who is forced to flee her hometown in Punjab for the safer/greener shores of  Toronto where her brother works and resides. She pays off a counterfeit operation to get a fake visa into the safe home she envisages for herself. Unfortunately the reality is anything but… Once she reaches Toronto, she is forced on the run by a double-crossing counterfeit visa agent who has misled her into smuggling diamonds into the country. To top that, her brother gets rustled-up and kidnapped and it’s left to her to find a way out of the mess - given that she is an illegal immigrant in an alien nation that would have no qualms in deporting her back to home country if they even get a whiff.

The story is quite solid and the narrative has it’s ingratiating moments but the pacing, direction  and the editing is all wrong. The languid pace, the lack of sharpness in the action and the underwhelming nature of the overall treatment doesn’t allow for a thriller experience. The performances are all quite likable. Barkha Madan, who has now donned a Buddhist Nun’s robes in real life, looks a little too old for the role of a 28 year old. But her performance is not to scoff at. She does well to make Jeet both vulnerable and strong and imminently believable. but in the overall experience ‘Surkhaab’ just doesn’t allow for any great affection. And that’s truly sad!
