Vidya Balan gave the year’s best performance in the film Dirty Picture.
Vidya BalanIn 2011, Vidya Balan reserved her best performance for the film Dirty Picture. Every actor in the film including Naseeruddin Shah, Imran Hashmi, Tushar Kapoor and others gave brilliant performance, but as the role of Silk Smitha was depicted by Vidya Balan, her performance stood out amongst everyone’s performance. Ekta Kapoor and Shobha Kapoor produced the film while Milan Luthria directed it.
When the film was released there was no expectation of the film matching the success of Bodyguard or Ra One, but the effort of Vidya Balan and other required appreciation. The audience accepted the film as it has already done business worth 40 crores and still going very strong in different parts of India. It got the 5th biggest opening in 2011.
Vishal Shekhar had composed music for the film. The song “ooh lala ooh lala” sung by Bappi Lahiri and Shreya Ghoshal became super hit. The story of Silk Smitha had been played by Vidya Balan. She acted opposite Naseeruddin Shah, who was a renowned actor in the film.
But he exploited her. She loved Tushar Kapoor, the brother of Naseeruddin Shah. He also did not have the guts to marry her. At the end of the film Imran Hashmi, the director who hated her for her erotic performances, fell in love with her.
By the time, he brought her mother to see her, she already consumed sleeping pills and killed herself. She was very bold and daring to accept the role of Silk Smitha. She amazed everyone with her excellent performance. Viewers should watch the film.

Once Upon A Time In Mumbai will do mediocre business.

Once Upon A Time In Mumbai will do mediocre business.
The film Once Upon A Time In Mumbai will do mediocre business. The film had been produced by Ekta Kapoor and the film had been directed by Milan Luthria.
The film opened up with suicidal attempt of Randeep Hooda on the pretext of Mumbai Blasts in 1993. He was annoyed with himself for leaving Imran Hashmi, one of the persons involved in the blasts when he was an ACP.
The story of Ajay Devgan was also unfolded. He was also an outsider to Mumbai at one time. Then his smuggling activities with gold and other things made him a don. But his illegal activities did not stand in the way for his help given to the poor in the area.
Imran Hashmi tried his best to become a notorious figure and also a bigger don than Ajay Devgan. Ajay Devgan had an affair with Kangana Ranaut, a bollywood actress. Ajay Devgan invested money in the films of Kangana Ranaut. Randip Hooda was trapped by Ajay Devgan for taking bribe and his image was tarnished.
Imran Hashmi had an affair with Prachi Desai. Prachi Desai worked in a jewellery shop. At the end of the film it had been shown that Imran Hashmi had settled abroad and became smuggling don. The police cannot reach him.
The music of the film had been composed by Pritam. There was not much scope of composing romantic songs. The performance of Ajay Devgan, Imran Hashmi, Prachi Desai, Kangana Ranaut had been excellent. But the prospect of the film doing extremely well is very meager, because viewers these days don’t like stories related to underworld. Already it had been shown in the past and films like Deewar and Vaastav had been successful. The film will do moderate business.

Review of Raaz-the mystery continues.

Mohit Suri had experimented with a crime-oriented thriller in the film Raaz – the mystery continues. These days directors hardly take risks in making films relating to spirits, suspense-thrillers, etc., as the viewers had accepted only comedy films in the last three years. Mohit Suri and Mahesh Bhatt came up with a unique subject in the film Raaz –the mystery continues.
Kangana Ranaut has been shown as an aspiring model who instigated Adhayanan Suman to earn money in any manner whatsoever to fulfill their desires. Adhayanan Suman accepted her proposal and got involved in unfair means to earn money. All of a sudden the soul of any other person got inside Kangana Ranaut and she started behaving abnormally.
Imraan Hashmi, a painter in the film could visualize the future and see what was going to happen to Kangana Ranaut. From his dreams he realized that the source of events were present in the place Kalindi in Himachal Pradesh. He helped Kangana Ranaut and took her to Kalindi.
In Kalindi, a chemical factory used to dump the toxic wastes in the sacred waters of a nearby temple. Jackie Shroff came to know about the fact and informed the respective authorities about it. But the priests and personnel of the factory conspired together to conceal the matter. Jackie Shroff informed about the incident to Adhayanan Suman, who was a media person. He heard it and promised Jackie Shroff that he would publish it soon. Instead of publishing it he disclosed the secret before the temple authorities and factory’s administrators and took huge amount of money as he was instigated by Kangana Ranaut about earning money in any manner whatsoever.
The conspirators killed Jackie Shroff by beating him brutally. His spirit got inside the body of Kangana Ranaut to inform the people about the incident. Jackie Shroff ruined her life to show that she was the root cause of all the incidents. Adhayanan Suman was shown that the path he had used to earn money was totally wrong.
A preaching of social reformer was displaced in the body of Kangana Ranaut which showed that her body was filled with dirt. Although the film started off with the ghostly events but ended with a social concern. The film had done moderate business in the 2 months after its release and will end being hit film.
Producers and directors can make similar type of films in future.
