Peepli Live gets good reviews from all quarters

Monsoon is here to stay for a while but the clouds in Bollywood are slowly vanishing. We witnessed hits in I Hate Luv Storys and Once Upon A Time In Mumbai last month and this month started off well with Aisha being received by the audience. That’s not all, Aamir Khan’s home production Peepli Live is expected to rock at the box office, as it has received very good reviews from the critics.

Peepli Live was screened to the critics days before its release, and that shows the confidence of its makers. They seem to be sure of their final product, because it takes lots of guts to premiere early, for the simple reason that bad reviews could affect the opening of any film. But as expected, Peepli Live received accolades from all quarters. It is expected to earn huge in spite of lack of stars.


“Peepli Live is sure to ride initially on the strength and credibility of its iconic actor/producer Aamir Khan and once that is achieved, the powerful content is sure to speak for itself. Peepli Live is a film that would not only appeal to Indians, but is sure to reach out to audiences beyond India. Simply brilliant!” wrote popular film critic Taran Adarsh. “This tragi-comedy, a brilliant satire, is not to be missed,” he added.

Peepli Live is a satire on the pledge of the farmers and brings to light their struggle. It also tells how the people right from the politicians to the bureaucrats to the television reporters to the local people try to exploit a situation to their advantage.

Directed by debutante Anusha Rizvi, Peepli Live features Omkar Das Manikpuri, Raghuveer Yadav, Malaika Shenoy, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Shalini Vatsa, Farrukh Jaffer and Vishal O Sharma in the lead roles. It is hitting the theatres today.

Watch out guys!

Anjaana Anjaani Movie Preview

Eros International presents ANJAANA ANJAANI, which is produced under Sajid Nadiadwala's Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. Banner. Directed by Siddarth Anand the film stars Ranbir Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra & Zayed Khan.

The music of the film is done by duo Vishal-Shekhar, who has composed the music for all of Siddharth's films in the past.

ANJAANA ANJAANI is a story about two strangers...one stranger than the other, which is all set to hit the screens on 24th September 2010

Synopsis:

Two people can meet ANYWHERE. In a cab on a rainy New York afternoon, at the neighborhood bar, in a queue waiting to use the ATM Machine, On a plane, deep sea diving, in the middle of an earth quake, sitting on that famous bench at the Taj Mahal or standing under the Pyramids in Egypt. You can meet someone in the most mundane of circumstances or in the most exotic ones. Akash and Kiara meet. But they meet in a situation as unusual as no other.

But what if the two people who meet as strangers want to stay that way? They want to end right where they started - as strangers.

This is the story of two strangers on an odyssey of discovery - down a path that is ridden with the exquisite pain and joy of falling in love, only they don't realize it.

A series of hilarious misadventures trace their bi coastal road journey as they go about fulfilling their last wishes. But then life interrupts, as is its habit; and painful choices must be made. The duo part with the understanding that their days together were a brief interlude of insanity that had to succumb to real life.

They part as they met - as strangers. But can a cloaked love so strange between two strangers conquer the idiom of normalcy we all believe in. Is it worth another chance? Is it worth leaving behind all that is familiar? Is it a love in time; is it truly the beginning they never expected? Follow Akash and Kiara, along this hilarious, contemporary yet poignant journey of stumbling into all that is worth living for.

Can you let a stranger change your life.... forever......

Character Sketch:

Priyanka Chopra as Kiara - How do you solve a problem like Kiara?? That is the problem Akash inadvertently stumbles into. She is all that one can expect, after all she is overt in her behavior, happy go lucky...living a rather unorthodox life, living in the moment - for the moment. However there are depths that are unfathomed; that she keeps blanketed under her perceived zest for living and the good life. There is so much she reveals and yet there is still more that she keeps to herself. In her carefully cultivated persona of frivolity and fun, there is a deeper, abiding sadness. One that she doesn't permit you to see, one that Akash must discover for himself and one that he will yet again stumble into - much to his surprise.

Ranbir Kapoor as Akash - People are an interruption for Akash. If you ever met him at a coffee shop, or were seated next to him on a plane or on the metro ride home. You would be tempted to turn to him, maybe only to ask him the time. There is something about him that draws you to him, and yet all too quickly just when you think you have his attention, you lose him. It's the way he likes it and he would turn to you maybe even smile and say - 'I have no interest in you. Absolutely none - zilch'. And that would be the end. It isn't personal - with Akash - it never is personal. It is what it is.

So then who is he? This man who chooses to remain aloof, alone - always a stranger, maybe even to himself?
