What ? When ? Where ? How much ? And why ?

Its an age-old debate. And things are changing now. In west, the new rule is “Forget the critics, Fear Twitter”! Plus, there are many popular bloggers now whom viewers trust more than many critics because they know that there cant be any hidden agenda there. And may be thats why many publications are in the process of doing away with critics.

Ok, enough of our review gyaan. Since we are putting it as VOTD, do check it out. Taran Adarsh, popularly known as Trash Adarsh for his movie and film reviews, discusses the issue with Minty Tejpal (Mumbai Mirror), Meena Iyer (Mumbai Mirror/TOI) and Rajeev Masand (CNN IBN).

Some candid confessions, some strong opinions, west versus east, do producers/directors try to influence them and why do they write/say, the way they do. And they even discuss Nikhat Kazmi!

(PS – Mumbai Mirror belongs to TOI group)

Is this a joke ? If so, a really cheap one! To sell the film and grab some eyeballs. Or are we only reading too much between the lines, ok, between the nasal twangs! If you dont believe us, just play the video and listen to the song.

The film has been long in the making and long time dabba-band too!It stars Shahid Kapoor & Kareena Kapoor and is directed by Satish Kaushik.

The film was shot when the Kapoors were together. Now that one Kapoor has moved on to Saif Ali Khan, producer Boney Kapoor must be scratching his bald head to figure out a promotional campaign for this one. And finally the culprits, lyricist “Sameer” and singer/composer “Himesh Reshammiya” must have come to his rescue. We are ROFLOL! Kuch nahi baki hai saab aur na hi koi milenge…wanna bet!

As the promotional campaign and the title of the film suggests, the official synopsis of the film says the same too. If you are still interested, here it is…

‘I hate luv storys’ is the maxim Jay lives by. But as an assistant director to Veer, the most famous romantic filmmaker of Indian Film Industry, Jay has little option but to live with larger than life, glossy, cinematic love on an everyday basis. Things only get worse when he is made to work under the new production designer on the film… Simran, with whom he shares the strangest first encounter!

Simran loves luv storys; So much so that even her life has begun to resemble one. With her ideal job and the perfect boyfriend, Raj, she lives a blissful, dreamy life; One that is rudely interrupted by Jay’s cynicism.

The turmoil’s of Jay and Simran’s life, is ironically interweaved with the Luv Story that they are working on…. But will Jay and Simran ever find their own Luv Story – go find it out in a theatre near you on 2nd July.

So, Raj & Simran have become Jai & Simran! Aur bolo! Though we still feel that “Hate” is the key word in our dictionary as far as this film is concerned, but have to admit that it got a supercool official website. Beats everything else that we have seen in recent times. Click here to check it out.

Music is by Vishal-Shekhar and Lyrics by Anvita Dutt, Kumaar & Vishal Dadlani. And here is the first song promo of the film…

And if you missed it earlier, the first trailer of the film….

Vikramaditya Motwane & Anurag Kashyap on Udaan – two video interviews!

So, who is this Vikramaditya Motwane ? And why and how he made Udaan, the film which got selected for Cannes this year, the mecca of all film fests! The dream debut of any filmmaker, unless you count Pottymakers like Sajid Khan as filmmaker too! And its also not about going there to pose as a mannequin and fake plastic smile all over! Its about that love called cinema! Its about “official” entry! Rest everything else is just frills and thrills or hisssss.

Have been trying to locate Vikramaditya Motwane and the story of making of  Udaan but so far its been bad luck (Though managed to watch the film & loved it). So, here are two tv interviews in which producer Anurag Kashyap and director Vikramaditya Motwane talk about Udaan, Cannes and more. First one is by Anupama Chopra of NDTV. And the second one is by Rajeev Masand of CNN IBN.

Vodpod videos no longer available.

PS – Dear Anurag, we know that long long ago you were the one who promised Vikram that nobody else but you are goning to produce Udaan, we also know that you get hyperactive when you start talking about cinema  and we also know that what you talk, makes lot of sense. BUT, let Vikramaditya Motwane speak too. He is the “director”  of the film . We know you well, we wanna know him now! Its a scary feeling that you might be going the VVC way – maine banayee hai….maine…..maine kiya hai….maine likha hai…maine kaha tha….everything where maine is the key word! Hopefully we will be proved wrong but there is no harm in a making a point that’s coming across so strongly in both the interviews. Enjoy!
