Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna (2006) - starring Amitabh Bachchan, Shahrukh Khan in this story of relationships

Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna released in the year 2006. Produced by Dharma Productions and directed by Karan Chopra, it marked a serious u-turn in the director’s career as he stayed away from candy floss and tackled a subject as taboo as extramarital affair within the commercial cinema framework. It starred the leading stars of Bolywood, like Amitabh Bachchan, Shahrukh Khan, Rani Mukerji, Preity Zinta, Abhishek Bachchan and Kirron Kher in pivotal roles.

The film begins with Dev Saran (Shahrukh Khan) a successful football player who is on the verge of signing a major deal with a club. He accidentally bumps into Maya (Rani Mukherjee)- a to be married bride suffering from pre marriage jitters. Dev counsels Rhea and the two connect instantly. They part ways and Maya goes on to marry her childhood friend Rishi Talwar (Abhishek Bachchan). Unbeknownst to Maya, Dev meets with an accident on his way out of the marriage reception that ends his career. Dev is married to Rhea (Preity Zinta) a successful career woman who works with a fashion magazine. After Dev’s accident it falls upon Rhea to support the family.

The duo, Dev and Maya meet after four years courtesy the formers son who studies in Maya’s class. Dev has turned into an embittered man courtesy his own unfulfilled dreams and his wife’s ever increasing success that is hard for his male ego to accept. Maya on the other hand feels unfulfilled in her marriage as she has not been able to fall in love with her husband. She loves Rishi as a friend and is indebted to his father Samarjit, a.k.a Sexy Sam (Amitabh Bachchan) for taking care of her. Dev and Maya realize that their situations are similar and decide to help each other repair their breaking marriages. However things do not turn out as intended as their intense chemistry keeps drawing them to each other. Rishi and Rhea are also fighting for their respective marriages but their efforts are insignificant in the face of Maya and Dev's growing love for each other.

Their clandestine affair comes out in the open when they are caught by Samarjit and Dev’s mother Kamaljeet. Sam unable to accept the fact that his beloved daughter-in-law is cheating on his son suffers a fatal heart attack and as he lies on his death bed, he tells her to leave his son Rishi since neither of them are happy in their marriage. Dev and Maya decide to go back to their respective partners but they come clean about their affair. Rishi and Rhea decide to end their respective marriages. But the two star crossed lovers keep this a secret, each living apart from the other as a form of penance. Three years down the line Maya comes to know the truth and tries to reunite with Dev. The climax of the film sees the lovers finally meeting up and confessing their true feelings.

Dus - Fast paced action

Dus is a fast-paced action thriller starring a number of Bollywood stars Sanjay Dutt, Sunil Shetty, Abhishek Bachchan, Shilpa Shetty, Pankaj Kapoor, Esha Deol and Zayed Khan. The movie was released in 2005, and was a decent hit (costing around Rs. 20 crore, and earned a revenue of Rs. 43 crore). The movie was directed by Anubhav Sinha, with production by Nitin Manmohan and Sohail Maklai. Music was by Vishal-Shekhar, and Ranjit Barot. The movie was fairly long, being around 2 hours & 20 minutes. Music for the film became quite popular, and the title song of 'Dus Bahane' was a hit. The movie also had a twist, in that one of the popular heroes was sacrificed at the climax of the movie, something that a lot of movies avoid.
The movie is about the effort of the Anti Terrorist Cell (working somewhat similar to what you would expect the RAW to function, but without all the glamour that the movie depicts) to stop a massive bombing of which it does not have much information, and for which there are only 10 days left. Sanjay Dutt is the head of this organization, with the name of Siddhant Dheer. Along with him, his younger brother Shashank Dheer (Abhishek Bachchan), Aditya Singh (Zayed Khan), Aditi Kumar (Shilpa Shetty) are the others in the organization. Neha (Esha Deol) is an agent in Canada who starts the entire process, by reporting the existence of a plan being spear-headed by Jambwal, about whom they do not have any information, and whose identity they do not know.



The movie attempts to play the game of multiple double-crossing, about people betraying each other, about people not being who they claim to be. Because the ATS does not know the identity of Jambwal, they cannot even confirm that if they catch a person, whether that person is Jambwal or not. And this happens when they catch Mehendi (Pankaj Kapoor), an agent of Jambwal who is terrified of Jambwal. They are trying to interrogate him to find out more Jambwal, but they land in more problems. The car provided to them by Neha is rigged to explode if it slows down (English movie Speed?), so who is Neha. Zayed Khan is a bomb expert who can detect if a bomb is planted, and what are the chances of defusing it in time.
They are further trying to not reveal their plan to the Canadian police, even though the plan involves the terrorists bombing a stadium where a match is ongoing, so as to attack the Indian Prime Minister who will be there to attend the match (on May 10th). They uncover traitors in their midst, although each of these traitors extract a cost. The action peaks in the end, as they are at the stadium where there are multiple bombs planted, and their mission is to get the bombs away without loss of life (with the bombs being constructed of C4, a military explosive (where did terrorists get C4 from?)). The movie is a much watchable movie, be sure to watch (although the logic can sometimes fail).

Lyrics from the movie Dus:

Dus Bahane:
Here Now Here Now, Everybody Put Your Hands Up In The Air Now
Here Now Here Now Everybody Put Your Hands Up In The Air
Uski Aankhon Mein Baatein, Baaton Mein Jadoo
( Say Here Now Here Now )-2
Uski Aankhon Mein Baatein, Baaton Mein Jadoo
Jadoo Mein Kho Gaye Hum Hogaye Beqabu
I Looked At You, You Looked At Me,Aur Hogayi Mushkil
And You Became My Destiny Tuhi Meri Manzil
( Dus Bahane Karke Legaye Dil Legaye Dil
Dus Bahane Karke Legaye Dil )-2

Here Now Here Now, Everybody Put Your Hands Up In The Air Now
Here Now Here Now Everybody Put Your Hands Up In The Air
Yeh Dil Topehle Aisa Nahin Tha
Kisne Behkaya Aisa Sapna Dikhaya Kyun
Yeh Aankhein Meri Dekhe Ussi Ko
Soche Bina Hi Usse Apna Banaya Kyun
Jeena To Marne Se Ab Hai Kahi Mushkil
Khudko Jo Khoya To Woh Hogaya Haasil
( Dus Bahane Karke Legaye Dil Legaye Dil
Dus Bahane Karke Legaye Dil )-2

Here Now Here Now, Everybody Put Your Hands Up In The Air Now
Here Now Here Now Everybody Put Your Hands Up In The Air
Kisne Kisiko Haske Bulaya
Baatein Banake Koi Jadooo Sa Chalaya Tha
Bas Dekha Dekhi Dil Se Hui Thi
Duniya Bhulake Koi Aaise Dil Pe Chaya Tha
Kiske Bin Kya Hoga Yeh Kh Sake Na Dil
Khudko Yeh Samjhana Ab Ho Gaya Mushkil
( Dus Bahane Karke Legaye Dil Legaye Dil
Dus Bahane Karke Legaye Dil )-2

Uski Aankhon Mein Baatein, Baaton Mein Jadoo
Jadoo Mein Kho Gaye Hum Hogaye Beqabu
I Looked At You, You Looked At Me,Aur Hogayi Mushkil
And You Became My Destiny Tuhi Meri Manzil

Chham Se

dil kutch kehta hain
lab kutch kehtey hain
behke behke se hum hote hain
jo kehna chahe
woh keh bhi jaye
aaise lamhe toh
kam hote hain
pyar mein koi nayi baat nahi
yeh aaisa jo ho jaye
dhunde nigaahein jab har pal usko
apna dil kho jaye
aankhon mein kyon chehra uska thodasa dhundhlaye re
cham se woh aa jaye cham se aa jaye
cham se woh aa jaye man pe cha jaye
cham se woh aa jaye cham se aa jaye

mausam ka har andaz bhi
teri adaa ban gaya
chahat ka yeh ehsaas bhi
teri wafa ban gaya
tera chehra aankhon mein
tera pehra khwaabo mein
kabhi dil ki raaho mein
yeh hota hain ho jaaye de
cham se woh aa jaye cham se aa jaye
cham se woh aa jaye man pe cha jaye
cham se woh aa jaye cham se aa jaye

jaayegi jab tu deke judaai bhi
tanha si hogi dilki tanhai bhi
ehsaas tere dil ka aankhon semeri chalka
betaab hoke jab uski hi yaad mein dil ghabraye re
cham se

dil kutch kehta hain
lab kutch kehtey hain
behke behke se hum hote hain
jo kehna chahe
woh keh bhi jaye
aaise lamhe toh
kam hote hain
pyar mein koi nayi baat nahi
yeh aaisa jo ho jaye
dhunde nigaahein jab har pal usko
apna dil kho jaye
aankhon mein kyon chehra uska thodasa dhundhlaye re
cham se woh aa jaye cham se aa jaye
cham se woh aa jaye man pe cha jaye

Dhoom 2 (2006): More action, and equal success

Dhoom 2 was released in 2006, as a much awaited sequel after the success of Dhoom (2004). The movie was directed by Sanjay Gadhvi (who had earlier directed Tere Liye (2000), Mere Yaar Ki Shaadi Hai (2002), and Dhoom (2004)), and after the success of Dhoom, he was the natural choice for shooting this movie as well. The movie had a tough initial act to catch, since the original Dhoom had fast paced action in terms of bike action, as well as the glamour quotient. So, in Dhoom 2, they had to improve on both the glam as well as on the action scenes - so you had Aishwarya Rai and Bipasha Basu as the hot female leads along with Abhishek Bachchan, Hrithik Roshan, and Uday Chopra; the action was also accelerated with cliff shots, landing on a train, and numerous other action sequences.

The movie was also a bit controversial since a kiss scene between Aishwarya and Hrithik was removed, since Aishwarya was becoming a part of the Bachchan household. Besides this however, there were some specialties in the movie, with more focus on the dashing villain, Hrithik rather than on Abhishek (there was speculation on why Abhishek settled for a much lower role). The movie had some great songs by Pritam, with lyrics by Sameer.




The movie follows the same track as the earlier Dhoom, with the police inspector chasing a thief who seems to disappear into thin air, and keeps on cocking a snook at the police. In this movie, the thief is played by a Mr. A (Hrithik Roshan) as he is in the habit of leaving a 'A' symbol after each robbery. There is a great action scene where he steals a beautiful English crown by sky diving onto a train that is in the Namibian desert. As usual, he is pursued by ACP Jai Dixit, who is accompanied by his Sub Inspector Ali Akbar (Uday Chopra), and by his former classmate ACP Shonali Bose (Bipasha Basu).
And then there is the entry of Sunheri (Aishwarya Rai), who wants to get close to Mr. A as his fan, but who is actually working for the police. Mr. A trains her, and takes her along for another robbery in Brazil, but there Hrithik discovers that Sunheri is working against him, and threatens her. She is in love with him by that time, and ends up turning over to his side. In the end, even though their robbery is a success, they are not able to escape, and in a daring cliff confrontation, there is a staged death of Mr. A. In the end, they show Mr. A and Sunheri together in a restaurant, where ACP Jai also walks in.

Lyrics of songs from the movie:

Crazy Kiya Re

chori chori kiyaa re, dil ye dil liyaa re - 2
jaadu se jaadu kiyaa……kiyaa re
jaagi soyi rahoon, khoyi khoyi rahoon,
uski yaadon mein, uske khwaabon mein
jhoome jiyaa re………crazy kiyaa re

naa usko pataa, naa uski khataa
main uspe mar gayi, zaraa usko bataa,
dheere dheere ikraar mein,
kabhi kabhi intezaar mein ,
uske hi pyaar mein………jhoome jiyaa re…crazy kiyaa re

main yahaan bhi gayi, main wahaan bhi gayi,
sochaa pal pal use, main jahaan bhi gayi
din ho yaa raat ho
woh mere saath ho
jab uski baat ho…jhoome jiyaa re……crazy kiyaa re

chori chori kiyaa re, dil ye dil liyaa re - 2
jaadu se jaadu kiyaa……kiyaa re
jaagi soyi rahoon, khoyi khoyi rahoon,
uski yaadon mein, uske khwaabon mein
jhoome jiyaa re………crazy kiyaa re

Dhoom (2004) - the action thriller

Indian movies had seldom seen movies like these - a high voltage running chase between some smart thieves and a great policeman who pursues them to the bitter end. If a movie can be scripted and directed to be slick, it can be fairly impressive, and Dhoom was that. Don't expect any great script, any major story or message, but if you want an action flick that is fast and furious, then this is a movie certainly worth watching. Obviously, none of the characters of the movie are known for their excellent emoting abilities, but then they were not expected to do so. So, throw in some great action sequences, skin show, and fast songs, and you can have a movie that is bound to be a hit, and so Dhoom was (one measure of a movie being a hit is that there is a sequel soon, and so Dhoom2 came out just 2 years later).



The movie was produced by Aditya Chopra (Yash Raj films being the banner), and directed by Sanjay Gadhvi. The music was by Pritam, lyrics by Sameer, with the story being penned by Vijay Krishna Acharya. The movie won a few awards, with John Abraham winning awards for the negative role (although to give John an acting award takes some courage)
# 2005: IIFA Best Villain Award - John Abraham
# 2005: Zee Cine Award for Best Actor in a Negative Role - Johan Abraham
The movie is about the cat and mouse battle between the gang led by John Abraham, who start stealing from banks, without leaving traces for the police to investigate (and catch them). They use high powered bikes to evade the police when required, and make their getaways in a trace. They also lead a normal life as employees of a pizza outlet, and try to make their life as normal as possible (a good scene in the movie is when John Abraham throws the new flashy car of a gang member off a cliff as it would call attention to sudden riches).
Enter the ACP Jai Dixit (Abhishek Bachchan), married to Sweetie (Rimmii Sen). He has a mission to run these thieves down, and towards this purpose, recruits a racer and bike mechanic Ali (Uday Chopra). Ali has a girlfriend Sheena (Esha Deol in a major skin showing role that made her into a glamour doll), but unknown to him, she is also a member of Abraham's gang. Jai has, at the same time, managed to get Ali into the gang as his spy, so that he can eventually track them down and catch them. Does he suceed in the end ? What happens to Ali ? Watch the movie (either on TV whenever it appears, or on DVD) and get a thrill.

Dostana - Interesting movie

I consider Dostana a new age movie. Here is a movie that took a subject that arouses great controversies in India (remember the controversy about Fire?) and makes a comedy about it, if you ignore the last 30 minutes of drama. The movie is eminently watchable, and does not try to preach in any way. At the same time, since the concept of the movie is more about normal guys pretending to be homosexuals, the movie really does not dwell too much on the parts that tend to squeamish to straight people (there is hardly any hugging or other intimacy, or even romantic talk shown between the 2 leads), and hence the movie certainly will not be portrayed as a movie that can be seen as the coming of age of homosexual movies in Bollywood.
However, the movie treats homosexuality as perfectly normal, to the extent that normal, single (and easily sexed up guys - since the opening shot shows these 2 guys getting up from beds after having spent a night with women) and handsome guys decide to play gays in order to get a house. The other people in the movie do not seem to have any problem whatsoever with them, and even the Punjabi mother accepts the situation after the initial shock and ritually accepts the partner as her 'bahu'.


The movie starred three hot actors, Priyanka Chopra, Abhishek Bachchan and John Abraham, with the location set as Miami. Abhishek and John do not know each other, but run into each other a few times, most recently as when they are looking at the same house together. They are fascinated with the house that is available, but are told that they are not eligible since the young niece of the owner is already staying there, and 2 males in the same house will not be permissible. That is when they (with Abhishek taking the lead and John being more reluctant) decide to act as a gay couple. If they are a gay couple, then there is no problem, and they get the part. Things are going well, and they bond with the girl as well (and the scenes between them are fairly good).
There are circumstances in between, when one mother (Kiron Kher) turns up (since she receives a document confirming the gay relationship) and is horrified at the relationship her son is in, but she slowly accepts the relationship and is fine after that. There is an absolutely hilarious scene when Priyanka's boss (Boman Irani in a short but great role), who is quite obviously homosexual, comes for a party at her home (in fact, he is called since Priyanka wants to impress him in the hope that he will make her the boss before he leaves). He however, does not oblige, and makes Bobby Deol the new boss of the magazine.
Slowly, the duo finds that they are coming closer to her, while she is falling for Bobby Deol and he is falling for her. This is when the movie starts to lose its sheen; you start to see emotions being displayed and the story starts to stutter at this point. Maybe the actors were not really good for such a role. They plot as to how to separate these 2 (although there is one interesting situation whereby when Priyanka gets to know about their efforts, she suspects that these 2 are after Bobby Deol (not after her)). They eventually use Bobby's 5 year old son to plant differences and succeed in their plan (although Priyanka turns both of them down and kicks them out of the flat when they profess their love for her). In the end, they repent and try to bring them together.
Lot of skin show (including an item number by Shilpa Shetty), one great song (Maa Ka Ladla and maybe also Desigirl) and some good views of Miami. The movie is eminently watchable and worth buying and keeping. The movie is directed by Tarun Mansukhani, and produced by Karan Johar. Music is by Vishal-Shekhar.
