English Vinglish – Sweet Veet :-)

-


                Sridevi has shouldered this movie after 15 years and she has done it successfully too. She looks young but much matured and has expressed many feelings with her eyes throughout the movie. Notice that when you see the movie.
Coming to the story. Story is short. Sridevi doesn’t know English and she is constantly bullied by her daughter and husband. The pain slowly but surely makes her to learn English but she does that secretly and how she pleases her family becomes the rest of the story.
This movie has sweetness to it. Similar to the Laddu’s Sridevi makes in the movie. Her family is sweet apart from her daughter and husband who poke her now and then for not knowing English.
English Vinglish has good comedy interwoven in the movie. Half of the movie happens in India and the other half in New York. The English class is where most of the fun happens. There is a love angle too given between Sridevi and a French guy who comes to the class. But that is unnecessary to the movie more over it ends with Sridevi returning to India at the last.
The movie is enjoyable with family. If you have your Mom or Dad who have visited THE US then take them to this movie and they will enjoy and feel most of what Sridevi felt/emoted in the movie. The movie tells us that, to earn respect one needs to put hard work with interest and also shows that US is strange and a lonely place compared to India.
Go with your family enjoy the movie and you will respect more the housewives who take care of the family and their health J
I went with my wife, Mom and Dad every one enjoyed it. Hope you too will enjoy. Expecting Sridevi to act more from now on. 
My rating for the movie is 3.5/5*.

Kanden Kadhalai in Tamil < Jab We Met in Hindi

On the above picture do you see any difference? Hmmmm… This is the level of similarity you can see when you see Kanden Kadhalai. But I understood direction is not simply copying. You have to have the magic touch which the original director (Imtiaz Ali) has. Kannan (Director of Kanden Kadhalai) didn’t have that magic touch. Scene to Scene, Dialogue to Dialogue it is same as Jab We Met. Although he has left out some really cute scenes which comes in Jab We Meet. Some scenes coming to my mind are, when Geet and Adhitya try and catch a running train in Manali soon after he finds out her in Manali and she tells abt her dream. And the very last scene where Geet’s Sikh Grandfather says that he knew every thing and he needs only one second to find what is running between the girl and boy. In that scene you will be seeing Geet and Adhitya with their 2 children and giving a smile saying “Ji Daji” Those are some of the real sweet scenes in Jab We Met and we don’t find them in this movie.

Angadi Theru is touching and true…

Angadi Theru Movie Review (4/5). Angadi Theru means a Market. And a heavily crowded market in Chennai means Ranganathan Street . And that’s where most of the movie unfolds. Many would have gone inside Saravana Stores. And how many of us would have thought about the uniformed sales people working there? Vasanthabalan just has not visited Ranganathan street . But paused and thought about it and made this touching script mixing some hard reality too. The movie shows the lives of Kanni and Jothilingam for a period of roughly 1 year. And that happens to be the first year after they meet. They gain many things but loose many too. There is no hard lined story in this film. This movie can be taken as a chapter in a very big novel. But this chapter seems to be the touching one in the whole novel. Jothilangam a 12 th standard school topper from a village is forced to work for his family due to the sudden death of his father. He comes to Chennai and joins as a sales person at Senthil Mugura

Tamil Padam.. Gives you only a few genuine Laughs.

It’s been a very long time since I watched a movie first day first show. But got the opportunity for this movie after some quick planning. We decided around 3pm that we are going to the movie and then started from office at 5pm . Since it was Bangalore we where able to get the ticket for Tamil Padam very easily and to my surprise the theatre was not houseful too!!! The movie started with the Spoof of Karuthamma. But here they are killing the boy babies instead of Girl. The reason? Because boys from that village (Cinemapatti) leave for Chennai and start acting as heros in Tamil Cinema and proclaim themselves with all names like Chinna Talabathi, Mini Super start etc and also disclose that they want to become the CM in the second year itself. But our hero (who is the baby) escapes the packed super Quality Kalli paal that is kept for killing him and heads to Chennai along with Paravai Muniyamma. There are some punch dialogues which spoof Vijay and an opening song which comes similar
