CINEMA, INTERNATIONAL, AWARDS

The scintillating 2010 Grammy awards were broadcasted live from the Staples Center in Los Angeles and attracted the largest Grammy audience since 2004.

CINEMA, INTERNATIONAL, REMAKE

Phir Hera Pheri finds a twin in Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels Though Bollywood copies never really surprise me (an original Bollywood script does though) it does shake up some fans.

CINEMA, BOLLYWOOD, BEST, AWARDS

The year 2009 arrived with yet another bundle of 365 days when over 100 Bollywood movies were screened. Stories illogically experimented, titles ridiculously Hinglished, actors overly acted and music loudly mixed. All for creativity!! Sadly, most of the films didn’t justify their overly rated reviews. With every new movie came close to its release, audiences were double excited and then super bored. The box office vroomed only ‘average’, ‘disaster’, ‘semi hit’ and ‘ok shoke’ films. Oo...
