news views and analysis

We saw the movie BLACK on the weekend. Watching a hindi movie for me in Manhattan is a very rare occurance. The experience this time was much better than the last one two years ago watching Devdas.

The movie has a very compelling storyline and i think the director tries his very best to walk the fine line between an art movie and a commercial blockbuster.

Rani Mukherjee should surely get an “Oscar” or a “Filmfare” for her performance. Amitabh also played his part very well, but this was surely not his best or greatest performance.

Am sure this movie will create a lot of awareness for the blind and deaf of this world and this awareness will lead to more social involvement both in terms of time and money.
