Review : My Name is Khan

There is good news for Hindi movie lovers that the much-anticipated movie “My Name Is Khan” has been released today. Despite facing its major setback in Mumbai it has got released both US and India in more than 119 theatres. Fox Searchlight has distributed this movie in US. Fans are happy for this new movie where they can see the most successful onscreen couple Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol acting together.
This movie has got good review from its audience. It proves that Hindu extremist group can not affect over it. Millions of people are curious to know the review of this film. The story of this film is based on 9/11 incident in US and how this incident affected in the live of Muslim in USA. The message of this movie is that all Muslims are not terrorists and there is no relation with Muslim and terrorist. Director of this movie, Karan Johar, tries hard to show that there are two types of people live in this world-the good and the bad. The strength of evil power can not defeat good. Good always triumphs the victory at the end. There are a lot of characters but only a few characters have importance to move the story ahead and lead to the climax.

Leader Review :By Movie Arena

Be the change you want to see in the world, Mahatma Gandhi had said a long time ago.

Taking these words to heart, director Sekhar Kammula gives us Leader, whose protagonist Arjun Prasad's (Rana Daggubati) maxim is Avineeti nirmoolana (eradication of corruption). This 'principle' reverberates throughout the Telugu film.

The film is a relevant take on contemporary politics in the state of Andhra Pradesh -- a large slice of reality infused with fiction in the form of a love story and other elements.


But it's applicable to the nation too though Sekhar makes a case for a leader and distinguishes him from a politician on rather simplistic grounds.

He scripts a saga of the journey of a boy, Arjun Prasad from a political family who does his PhD in the US but has to return to India after his father, played by Suman (the chief minister of Andhra Pradesh), is injured in a bomb blast.

When Arjun's father dies, the patriarch of the family, Peddayana (Kota Srinivasa Rao) wants someone to take over his nephew's place so that the 'dynasty' can continue.

A 'struggle' for power then ensues. Peddayana nominates Dhananjay (Subbaraju) as the successor though Subbaraju doesn't have a good track record. On the insistence of his mother (Suhasini Mani Rathnam) and to keep his father's last wish, Arjun enters the race for CM.



Movie Arena Rating: 3.5/5

Toh Baat Pakki : Review

Toh Baat Pakki works like a Priyadarshan drama devoid of the outrageous plot and the utterly watchable hero, and we're served up a bland, preposterously dated 'comedy' with lame jokes and little to laugh at.
Director Kedar Shinde tries hard to channel the wholesome humour of comedies like those of Basu Chatterjee and Hrishikesh Mukherjee, elaboratey stagey pieces of extremely family-friendly fare. But what he doesn't realise is that those films were masterpieces of plot and dialogue, and that just having people smile a lot doesn't make up for the complete lack of a script.
Tabu herself can't help being a good actress. But she clearly doesn't have the wherewithal to rescue a script this weak, loaded down with bad lines and a very weakly written character. She manages to amuse for maybe a minute or two in a film that seems far longer than its two hour running time. To be fair to the stunning lady, though -- even Akshay'd have trouble with a turkey like this.
