Korbo Lorbo Jeetbo Re....!!

Yeah Baby!!.. the festival begins.. Saturday 18th April..!!.. and the excitement is just building up.. as it comes closer.I just cant wait for it.

As they say "ek desh ek junoon" its actually a junoon now.

Last year's IPL was a mega hit and this time round its happening in "Dakshin Aphrika" we just have to wait and watch how it turns out to be.

Now for the whining and the cribbing part i have my submission , my midterms , my vivas..!!..

WHat luck .. what timing God..!!

But its okie.. i'll try and manage both.. infact i'll do that.

Cos as it is my heart and soul will lie only in the matches where my team is playing.

Yes My team... KOLKATA KNIGHT RIDERS!..kkr.. reloaded..!!

KKR RELOADED AD

This time i have feeling they will be back with a HUGE BANG!!..

Although the word hasnt been good yet with the inside conflicts and the negative marketing strategies that SRK has been applying to mint money and make publicity still if at the end of the day if they win i'll fly!..

I mean i love MUMBAI .. but come on ders SRK AND DADA both together.. both my childhood idols and i dont support them.. sorry..!.. have to root for KOLKATA..!!..

Srk quoted in an interview " Last time we had the best cheer leaders , the best outfits , the best promotional song, the best ad campaign bas cricket nahi khela"

So this time i hope so its more of the twenty twenty gang bang.. with the likes of

Brendon Mc Cullum

Chris Gayle

Ishant Sharma

David Hussy

Mortaza

Ajantha Mendis

and our very own Dada - Saurav Ganguly ( god on off side)

I just hope they provide us with the entertainment and a put up a good show because in my colony its like a 12 on 1 thing for me.. where i am the loan supporter of KKR.. so if that doesnt happen m gona have to hear taunts and mockings through out the year.

So for now " We're too hot we're too cool... aamhi KOLKATA, we rule!!!!!!!!.."

lol..

Billu Re....!!!

Well I cant help but post about movies now.. thats all most become my self proclaimed forte considering m sucha huge bollywood freak and how much ever i resist writing about movies my fingers just cant be controlled.But i promise i wont post any movie review atleast for a month.I feel like Khalid Mohammad already...lol. And btw other reason being the lack of topics to write on so suggest me something.

So here i am to review the movie that I have been waiting eagerly for and I being the only person.

Billu.

First of all I find it stupid AND irritating that people actually found the "barber" offending in the title, to the "barber" community. Grow up!!!

None of my friends had even 1% excitement to go for the movie.Everyone i asked gave me a stern "no" back or a half hearted reply. Then i happened to read somewhere on the net that its a "family entertainer" so i was like cool lets watch it with family even where i had to push my mom and dad to the theatre.

Well I know I am damn biased about srk movies but still i try my level best to be impartial and give a genuine opinion on it.

So "genuinely" Billu is a light entertainer and a very simple movie with a pure neat and unadulterated story line.The movie is no doubt slow and the songs in which SRK is featuring almost all of them just hamper the pace even more in particular one song called " Ae aa o" actually hams into your ears and you just wait for it to get over and the song has a SRK VIDEO SLIDES running as the background with all the entry scenes of his movies.

Billu(Irfan Khan) is a barber whos gone to rags and has nothing to look for and almost touched the poverty line but is still dedicated and determined to his profession.He has a hot looking gaao ki chhori as his wife (lara dutta) and two adorable and funny kids.You connect with them instantly.

Then there's SRK playin saahir khan the big shot superstar and he decides to shoot in the village called BUDBUDA where billu lives but saahir has no clue about it.

But when the village people hear this, things go out of control beyond the imagination of billu and then there are sequences of comic tragic and emotional scenes to follow which takes the movie ahead.

First half is real slow with just the introduction of whats happening in both the protaganist's lives.

Second half and especially the climax is the main highlight of the movie after being given a mediocre first half.

Irfan Khan is the soul of the movie with amazing expressions during emotional scenes and outstanding comic timing and dialogue delivery.

Om Puri is also extra funny in his miser role.

Rajpal Yadav and Israni are wasted.

Music is ok although the picturization of the songs is sparkling.

Srk mainly is for the three songs to add the glamour quotient in the movie but the pre-climax 2 page dialogue scene proves it that he is one of the greatest actors alive today.When it comes to emotional scenes he's the best person in bollywood he does it with class.

I shall mention Deepika Padukone over here ... guys she's sizzling in the song. Lyrically the padukone song sucked but the video is amazing...she's the hottest out of the 3 special appearances.

The cinematography is first-rate where the village looked like an actual village given importance to minute details still looked rich on the big screen.

The movie could have been edited for good.

With a priyadarshan movie u expect madness and leave-your-brain-at-home comedy.But this one's a sensitive movie overall with a hint of laughter here n there.

All in all, after JAI-VEERU,MUNNA-CIRCUIT there could have been BILLU-SAHIR only if the movie was a bit more entertaining and gripping.So mixed reactions for this SRK home production expected.

If RAB NE BANA DI JODI can be called a documentary on LOVE...

BILLU is a documentary on FRIENDSHIP...

RATINGS: 3/5
