...Mahesh Khedekar (Jamal) and Rubina Ali (Latika). These children were picked from the real slums in Mumbai to star in the film. I think they all did a brilliant job and were much better than a lot of professional child actors that I have seen in films. They deserved the fame and recognition they got. I hope that it is true that the producers of the film are helping to provide for them throughout their young lives.
There is some good music in the film including the theme song Jai Ho that you have probably heard after the pussycat dolls brought out a version.
Overall I thought Slumdog Millionaire was a fantastic film. It has a great story that will keep you interested throughout. The acting is well done by all the actors, making it a worthwhile film to watch.

...Love aaj kal is director Imtiaz Ali's latest film after the hugely succesful "Jab We Met".This is his third film and his affection to make films on love is apparent.Starring Saif Ali Khan,Deepika Pudakone and Rishi Kapoor this is one of the most succesful indian films of 2009.
Meera and Jai are part of the regular youth in London and they have been dating for a year or two.They are casual and have lots of fun together.When Meera needs to leave for Delhi for work,both feel that long distance relationships don't work and they would rather stay as great friends instead of complicating their lives by bringing in the difficulties of a long distance relationship.Jai meets Veer Singh(Rishi kapoor),an old guy who runs a cafe in London who tells him his love story set in Punjab.
The two stories run parallel to each other and is a casual...

Review of Love Aaj Kal (DVD)
Advantages: English Subtitles, Tamil dubbing Hollywood style Bollywood Title Disadvantages: None that i can think of
...If you thought Dhoom was a good film then what will you say about this film. This is better than the origional more action, comedy and songs.
This film has a lot of hollywood style special effects high speed chase where hrithik was on rollerblades and abishek was on a chopper with a sniper.
This was also the first bollywood film to be shot in brazil this just shows that bollywood will be going places, maybe even compete with hollywood.
This movie is now one of the highst grossing films of all-time in bollywood box office.
This film is about Jai (Abishek Bachan) who is trying to catch a cunning robber Mr A (Hrithik Roshan). Hrithik Hires Suneheri (Aishwariya Rai) as his apprentice which is where he went wrong as she is working for Jai. But Suneheri later falls for Mr A. Will Suneheri hand Mr A over to Jai or will she try to...

With the help of a make-up artist friend, played by Johny Walker, Jai masquerades...
Advantages: Bollywood semithriller; John Abraham to lust over Disadvantages: I'd appreciate a better ending..
...the background we have The cop played by Abhishek Bachchan(before he grew his beard) romancing his wife Sweety( played by Esha Deol).

Meanwhile Ali befriends Sweety and gives us a lot of comedy scenes as Jai is obviously not very happy about it.

Advantages: Beautiful men and women; interesting disguises. Disadvantages: Deviation from reality--trademark Bollywood.
...the Crown.
Excellent picturisation and the locale is awesome. Hrithik does a good job of sand skiing in this scene.
Then the plot moves to Mumbai where we meet the new ACP Shonali who is portrayed by Bipasha basu, and she is sooooooooo sexy and hot hot. She happens to be an old classmate of Jai Dixit , another ACP.
The whole team are on the lookout for an Ace thief who leaves his signature 'A 'across the globe. Jai figures out that the next heist would be in Mumbai. The thief is highly sophisticated and Tech savvy and always operates alone.There are several scenes in the first half of the movie that could give James Bond a run for his money. But then this is often watered down by typical Bollywood bike rides and helicopter chasings..
Anyway the Thief or A steals a very valuable diamond from under their very noses by a stroke of disguise( his...
