Jashnn (2009)

My Rating For this Album : **** / 5

Cast :: Adhyayan Suman, Anjana Sukhani & Shahana Goswami
Music :: Toshi & Shrib Sabri
Director :: Raksha Mistry & Hasnain S Hyderabadwala
Producer :: Mahesh Bhatt
Ripper :: tEam AtoZmp3

-= TrackList =-

01 - Nazrein Karam - K K & Shreya Ghosal
02 - Aaya Re (AtoZmp3) - K K
03 - Dard -E- Tanhai - Nouman Javaid
04 - Tere Bin - Shaan & Shreya Ghosal
05 - Main Chala - Nouman Javaid
06 - Aish Karle - Toshi Sabri & Sharib
07 - Nazrein Karam (Kilogram Mix) - K K & Shreya Ghosal
08 - Dard -E- Tanhai (Kilogram Mix) - Nouman Javaid
09 - Main Chala (Unplugged) - Nouman Javaid

Aaya Re is groovy enough with a catchy hook et al.KK chips in with all his panache but the bassline and tune are strictly run of the mill.

Aish Karle starts off on a chintzy note and stays cheesy,the funky arrangements not adding up to a good number.The Bhatts,once again,depend on the Pakistani factor to bail them out-Nouman Javaid’s sonorous vocals pouring life into

Dard-e-Tanhai. The serene

Main Chala,with an evocative rendition by Javaid again, stands out.The mellow cadence and languorous strumming are apt as are the piquant lyrics.

Nazrein Karamhas an addictive tune that is exploited to the hilt by Sharib Toshi.KK’s kinetic vocals power through this one with consummate ease.The rollicking number comes out trumps.Sandesh Shandilya’s silken

Tere Bin is a complete bamboozler.Seemingly incongruous amidst all the flamboyance, it manages to carve a niche for itself .The demure vocals add to the old world innocence.

The Bhatts pull it off,no doubt about that,but with minor stutters and stops.Mukesh Bhatt calling it their best since Aashiqui is ofcourse gratuitous.

My Picks:-

Dard-e-Tanhai,Main Chala,Tere Bin

Tollywood : Review Evaraina Epudaina (2009) Movie

Tollywood : Ride (2009) Movie Review

2009-06-22T23:05:00.005+05:30

My Rating for the movie: ***

Review In a Line:

The film has been made with good dose of entertainment and sufficient elements that will keep the youth pepped up. While the first half goes about with the regular college tales of romance, fights and other issues, it is the second half when things get really fast paced and though the climax looks a bit lengthy, it culminates to a smooth ending. The film would have been a lot better if the makers focused on putting more stress on comedy. Overall, this is a treat for the college going stuff and those bike crazy boys. Not much for the mass audience or the grown ups.

Final Verdict : Youthful entertainer, college crowds will like it

Tollywood : Boni (2009) Movie Review

2009-06-22T23:00:00.000+05:30

My Rating for the movie: **.25

Review In a Line:

The film has been made with good technical standards but then it was not able to create an impact with the content and the narrative. While the first half goes in a regular manner with the action and song sequences, there is some story in the second half but even that gets over in a jiffy. Sumanth's attempt at mass roles should be avoided. The film might run due to the fairly good audio and also the presence of the beautiful Krithi along with the production values, but for those who want some real story and entertainment, this may not suffice.

Tollywood : Current (2009) Movie Review

2009-06-19T23:24:00.005+05:30

My Rating for the movie: **.75

Banner : Sri Nag Corporation
Cast : Sushanth, Sneha Ullal, Charanraj, Tanikella, Sudha, Geetha, Brahmanandam, Vennela Kishore, Shafi, Raghu Babu and Others
Music : Devi Sri Prasad
Cinematography : Vijay C Kumar
Producer: Chintalapudi Srinivasa Rao, Naga Suseela
Director: Surya Pratap
Released Date: June 19, 2009

Conclusion:

The film looked to be a romantic entertainer but then the twists and the theme got so thick that at one point, the audience fails to understand what exactly is the message. There were a few points which were questionable. While the first half was mild, the tempo picks up during the second half and though there were some good moments, the consistency was lacking. Overall, the film is good in parts but it could have been better if comedy and the emotion part was focused more. This is a treat for the youth audience mostly.

Tollywood : Evaraina Epudaina (2009) Music Review

2009-06-02T20:38:00.000+05:30

Madhurayathana is a Ilayaraja styled 80s number - sounds like a neat spin off either Dharmavathi or Hamsanaaadham. Malli malli is enjoyable too – simple and enjoyable tune; while the composer’s stock runs into serious trouble with Na manase, Nara naramentila and Varevaa - using such a templatized format that they could have been composed by any Telugu composer. Akasamlo’s mildly retro backgrounds just save it even as Vaanemo thadisi is more like a musically-interrupted speech. Hemachandra’s Neelala garu is more like it - gorgeous melody with the right orchestral highlights expected out of Manisharma. Mixed bag from a jaded composer.

The climax is not that appealing.
Car chasing scene is enjoyable.

Anushka : Amazing looks, are impressive elements of the movie also the bikini part of it.

Music : Dheena
Producer: Sakthi Chidambaram

Review In a Line:

The film is a complete mass masala flick and it is not a film for the family or the class audience.
This could run well at the B and C centres.
It has sleazy songs and double meaning dialogues.

Performances

Raghava Larencce : Raghava was a perfect choice for this role
Meenakshi, Snigtha, Samiksha, Kamna Jethmalani : competed with each other and showed their sex appeal and oomph with full visual treat to the audience.
Mumtaz : looks hot and equally good with her act
Karunaas : gave an effective performance along with his comedy

But at time the movie got very slow.
