Paisa Wasool?: You can file a case against Sajid Khan about his false hypes of the movie in different movie channels specially ‘Nach Baliye’ and looting money from Bollywood movie lovers… LOL. Don’t bother watching the movie guys. we categorize the movie as‘Do Not Watch’.
The movie poster says ‘Sajid Khan’s entertainer’ we say- ‘Sajid Khan’s Blunder.. :P
First of all, I find it a spoof movie of original Himmatwala movie. The first one was at least making some sense with having Jitendra and Sridevi in the movie.
This is a film where a mother wants her daughter to go back to the husband who physically abuses her, because a woman can only leave her husband’s home when she dies, no matter what happens. How this attitude is part of a film in 2013 is beyond me.
“Himmatwala” also has a tiger, a bumbling villain and an all-conquering hero, who seemingly does nothing for a living except playing saviour.
Ajay Devgn is Ravi, who returns to his village to avenge the death of his father many years ago. He finds his impoverished mother and sister living on the outskirts of the village, banished by the same man responsible for his father’s death — Sher Singh, the village headman.
Ravi vows to make life hell for Sher Singh (Mahesh Manjrekar) but before he does — he chats with a tiger, plays messiah to the villagers and falls in love with Sher Singh’s daughter Rekha (Tamannaah). Rekha is an arrogant and spoilt girl, who wears short, tight clothes, but mellows and starts wearing traditional Indian attire once she falls in love with Ravi.
Of the cast, Ajay Devgn flexes his muscles, but the ones on his face refuse to move, rendering him expressionless for the most part.Tamannaah isn’t required to do much, but the remaining cast, including Zarina Wahab as the melodramatic mother, Paresh Rawal as the slimy villain’s sidekick and Mahesh Manjrekar ham it up like there’s no tomorrow.Finding a semblance of a story or logic in this film is meaningless, but Sajid Khan doesn’t even make it funny. “Himmatwala” is boring, long-winded and reeks of arrogance that the audiences will lap up anything that remotely resembles humour or drama if it is presented by an A-list star and with enough fanfare.
Watching “Himmatwala”, you wonder whether the film industry has indeed come a long way from the 1980s, or are we still stuck in a time warp?

Agneepath

Sunday Block buster Agneepath(1990) Agneepath “Naam,Vijay Deenanath Chauhan; baap ka naam, Deenanath Chauhan; maa ka naam, Suhasini Chauhan; umar, 36 saal; gaon, Mandwa.” you might have heard this dialogue N number of times which portrayed the Bollywood angry young man in one of his best movies! you will be shocked to believe Agneepath failed to impress crowd in 1990 and din’t fetch much returns to Yash Johar on his investment made in this movie. A bright son of a Gandhian view teacher changes his course of his life when his father is murdered by criminals. To avenge his father’s death and to get back the lost glory of his mother, the son grows up to become an underworld king. He eliminates the other dons, small and big, one by one, and finally loses his own life in the climax. Right from the start, the film is heavy, violent and tension-filled. There are light moments but they are few and far between. While the story is oft-repeated, the screenplay has loose ends.
