Hi Sujata, Those were some unusual yet convincing choices. I particularly liked Anil-Madhuri in Tezaab. I also kinda liked Dharam-Hema in Sholay. Cheers, Ravi
Commented on mnc123's review
Hi Milind Loved the review, as always. The choices were quite good. Was excited to see my favorite 'Ik pyar ka nagma hai'. The song is beautiful. I would have also added some song from 'Kranti'. I love the music, although the lyrics are quite crappy. The interludes in songs like 'de jaa pyar j read more...

Hi ekta, I've heard just the first song and like it very much. Infact after watching the video, I started liking it even more. Nice review. Keep writing, Cheers, Ravi

Raj, Interesting review. I've read abt Vivek's performance in other reviews too. Guess the presence of Ash made a difference to his motivation. And ummm..., is the rumoured 'kiss' scene really there? Cheers, Ravi

Good review. Like most Aamir films, this too is first-rate. Particularly surprising is that in such a thriller, action film, the music is so beautiful. I love almost all songs from this movie. Keep writing, Cheers, Ravi

Hi ena, That was terrific. Nice thing u focussed on this ubiquitous maa in Bollywood. These characters are so insufferable. A typical maa-beta dialogue goes...

Muneeb, That was really hilarious! Truly, Ekta Kapoor really must believe that we are all dumb people and will lap up any trash that she dishes out! Its a real insult to the audience's intelligence.

Rohini, I'm all for some boldness and some nudity in Bollywood. But unfortunately, this is served in very bland and horrible plates. The plots and direction in such films is so tasteless and usually the director seems to have all his attention focussed on the so-called hot scenes that he forgets read more...
Milind, Point noted :-) Regarding the issue of Lata singing in the higher notes, I found one interesting article in which Lata herself says she hates those songs. http://www.financialexpress.com/fe/daily/20001006/fle01016.html Just check it out. Cheers, Ravi
Dear Milind, Don’t know how I missed this review. When I had first got this topic introduced through Mouthpad, little did I know that there would be so many superb reviews being written on it. I must say that yours is one of the best! I agree with you that Lata’s voice sounds extremel read more...
