Chameli Ki Shaadi

The movie doesn't waste your time and jumps right into action! The typical formula of  lovers against the world is again used but Basu Chatterjee of the Baaton Baaton Mein fame has managed comedy,fun,innocence with elan.

Anil Kapoor, during late 80s ,I suppose was at the peak of his career. In the movie he doesn't play the young brash stubbled Mumbai Lakhan. He is a young, happily confused no worry guy who falls in love with equally innocent but childish Amrita Singh and rest ...you gotta see! :)

Special mention for Amjad Khan for portraying a character which isn't cruel ,barabaric or the contents of which aren't 'bachao bachao' ;) Niether does he plays outside his character.

Amar Akbar Antony



Whenever I hear the name, I go Hip Hip Hurray! :D

Amazing star cast,superb jingalala songs and comedy that is 100% fresh and original. The story has provided food to so many brothers-getting-separated thingy that this is the hallmark of all formula movies in Bollywood.

Need I say more? I am so happy just writing about this movie that if there was a club for this movie I would give my hands and legs to join :) For now I think I will search for posters and scenes of this movie and put them up here.

Rating - no prize for guessing !

Below are some famous moments from the movie. The whole movie is so iconic that it is by-heart by Indians. Ain't that why they say India is all about films. Rest come later! :)




Baaton Baaton Mein



What does the name tell you about the film? Serious,funny,strategic,crime focussed? Well no prize for guessing that the movie is just about the lives of some people. Simple lives and a simple story. You don't have to think too much when you watch Baaton Baaton Mein. That doesn't mean the movie is nonsensical. Far from it everytime I watch this movie, I get new themes,understand new aspects to a character and ofcourse discover just another street of old worldly Mumbai.



So whoever loves the old streets of Mumbai, Amol Palekar, Konkani music and ofcourse to just chill with a good movie for lack-of-work-to-do should watch this heart warming movie.

Rating  :) My all time fav!
