Story:-  The story is about the Vishal(Ajay Devgan) who is already married to Swati (Urmila Matondkar). They are in search of the house in Metro City. In the search, they find out one flat at the top of the building. As soon as they enter the house the caretaker of the house warns the Vishal about some odd incident which had happened in the past in the flat. But Ajay Devgan ignores that incident with the view in the mind he doesn’t believe such things and he hides the same incident from the Swati (Urmila Matondkar). Both of them shift together in the flat and some tricky events start taking place. Swati (Urmila) gets fascinated with some things in the building which changes their life. Suddenly one member of the building gets disappeared..and things continue to go on.

The story is the second attempt by RGV after his first superhit Raat. This again holds the nerves much tighter. In terms of the script, this story is just the same concept which is being displayed in many movies. But he is a master in the presentation skills which makes this movie another masterpiece from his factory again. His own style of camera angles…lights…and that slow..but nerve shivering music…Night shoots…makes the audience much frightened. RGV is a master in developing the characters and narrative which are too here in the movie.

Urmila Matondkar:- She is the winner. She plays the role of a wife who later on gets fascinated by the spirit of a Women. She is at her best in the role. Her eyes are much more frightening in the entire film. She will take care to terrify the entire audience until the end of the film. She has involved soo deep the story that sometimes while watching the film we may feel that is she really haunted by the spirit?

Ajay Devgan:- He plays the role of a frightened and caring husband who tries his level best to find out the real problem. He has nothing to do too much in the story since the entire USP is Urmila.

Seema Biswas:- She plays the role of typical houseworker(Bai) who is always in the doubts and fear in the mind.

Rekha:- She is a surprise entry. She plays the role of women who find out the solutions for the haunted spirits.

Fardeen Khan:- He is just OK.

Nana Patekar:- He is a COP.

Meanwhile, I will say the soul of the story is repetitive in most of the movies. But in this movie, RGV has represented it in the scariest way and he is again successful to make the audience shiver again.

Film review:- Kaun

Film review:- Kaun

Starcast:-
  1.Urmila as an unnamed female

  2. Manoj Vajpayee as Sameer A. Purnavale 

 3. Sushant Singh as Inspector.

Written by:- Anurag Kashyap

Directed by:- Ramgopal Varma

Story:- Again it is a masterpiece from the factory of RGV. 

On a stormy and rainy evening, one announcement is made on the television regarding one serial killer. A serial killer is roaming free in the city. This makes women much alert and anxious. This woman is living alone in her bungalow. Suddenly a bell rings on her door. Women finds out one stranger is waiting outside her house. This makes the situation much more complex and terrible. He enters the house with some other name. As he enters inside the house he notices some unusual things in the house and the events start falling into the place in a rapid way and one more man enters inside the house in some unknown circumstances and the story begins…

The entire movie was shot in just 15 days with 90 minutes of the duration. While watching the end I bet everyone will get punched and ignited as it is the biggest twist in the story. This kind of writing is totally different and unique. I personally loved the climax of the film. It was something that no one even I didn’t expect.

Anurag Kashyap is again a master in writing the psychological thrillers and chasing stories. He has placed the situations and twist and turns in unique ways. It's not at all a typical psychological horror film. The most interesting part of the story is that this story has just only 3 characters shoot in a single house. It's much interesting and unique way to make a film with less budget and present it. Each and every situation is different and unique. Camera angles are in different ways. Music and the direction kick's everyone's asses while watching the movie.

Urmila…:- She plays a character of unknown Mam. It is the first time that a leading lady is not having a character name but she is identified as just a Mam. She plays an effective role of a lady who is afraid and frightened inside the house. She is always curious and nervous. She keeps on looking here and there for the fact that some unknown person has entered the house. She scares you instantly. She is a USP and winner at the end of the movie.

Manoj Bajpayee:- He is too an antique character in the movie. He has many hidden shades with him. He enters inside the house with the name Sameer. As he enters the house some unexpected events start falling into the place.

Sushant Singh:- He plays the role of an Inspector. Though he is not an inspector in the movie, he is someone else who enters inside the house.

Ramgopal Varma is a masterman in the storytelling. This is the ultimate film in terms of creativity. In each and every film of RGV, we see something unique and different things. He should make such movies again and again.

·         Rana Daggubati as Bhallaladeva/Palvaalthevan, Main Antagonist

·         Sathyaraj as Kattappa

·         Subbaraju as Kumara Varma

Director:- S.S.Rajamouli

Writer:-K .K. Vijayendra Prasad

In this most overheated summer, biggest cyclone wave has arrived to wash out all the heat. Yes, Stormers Baahubali is back after 22 months with the answer to the question Why Kattappa killed Baahubali?  Awaited question for all readers. This is an epic where master storyteller S.S Rajamouli had culminated Epic Saga of Baahubali Part 1 and Cliffhanger question would become the most searched question all over the world Why Kattappa killed Baahubali? Finally, Part 2 has arrived with intense excitement. Let's discuss the movie which is a joyous story ride.

Story:- Amarendra Baahubali (Prabhas) and Bhalla Deva (Rana Daggubati) are sons raised by the same mother Sivagami(Ramya Krishnan) who is also the known Queen of Mahishmati. Amarendra is orphaned in his childhood and despite the fact that Bhalla is her own son; the Queen wants to crown Amarendra the King of Mahishmati because she feels that he has the true makings of a ruler. Bhalla gets provoked and the battle begins.

BB2 has better special effects and biggest fight sequence but success lies under Rajamouli's ability to turn revenge story in the solid and rock entertainment. Part 2 carries out expectations of the first part and quality of the story is much raised here especially in VFX and heroism. As a writer, I am going to give full marks to writers of the movie and S.S. Rajamouli who have kept buzz and drama alive from the beginning of the movie. This movie is the University guide for all the story writers. This will guide all the writers regarding the basics of writing and story. The movie can be turned inside out in just one question is the biggest lesson for all writers. 

Prabhas:- BahuBali Aka Prabhas...This movie is just a Prabhas and Prabhas. This will make him the proven superstar

Anushka Shetty:- She is indeed a queen. She has won the hearts

Tammana Bhatia;- She is good

Rana:- He plays the perfect antagonist

Sathyaraj:- Who can forget Kattapa?

For music lovers don't hear songs just hear the background music of the film and enjoy it. Baahubali takes you to an emotional Rollercoaster Ride.  Some scenes were not required in the film where the romance between Baahubali and Devsena(Anushka Shetty ) is shown in Titanic mood which doesn't get easily digest in critics mind?

Anushka Shetty and Tamanaha have much-limited scope for acting. It’s all about Prabhas Prabhas and Prabhas.

Last awaited question Why Kattappa killed Baahubali??? As a writer, I am not going to reveal suspense. Throw your workload in Office, forget your tensions of life, grab tickets and enjoy most Extravaganza saga and Joyous Storytelling Horse Ride. Enjoy Weekend.

Story:- Story starts in NASA USA. NRI scientist Mohan Bhargava(Shahrukh Khan) is working in NASA as a Project Manager for the space development. He plans a two week off from the NASA to finish some uncomplete work and to meet his mother after a 10 years gap in his city Charanpur in India. He lands in Delhi and he starts his journey in the small village of charanpur. As he lands in the charanpur he meets his mother Kaveri Amma and Geeta. He finds the fact that this city is still not developed in the full pledge. He also finds some old practices carried out in the city while should not be carried out. Along with it, the village is facing the problem of electricity unavailability. He later prepares a plan to make the village self-sufficient in the electricity and remove all the old practices which are been carried out in the village. But this process is not too easy. He uses his all skills to spread the awareness of education and the practical things.

Story and screenplay are solid which is totally real. There is not any reel fact shown in the film. Director has won many hearts by showing the real India. He also emphasizes the brain reversing fact that many talented people outside India are ready to come back to their home. But for this, they should be provided with all the equal opportunities and correct environment to work.

Shahrukh Khan:- Here he has won unconditionally. We cannot imagine Shahrukh Khan can wear formal shirts and regular jeans and he can face the camera. This is a totally different SRK in the film. He is not as SRk from Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and Kal ho na ho. He is the simple man working in NASA. But on the other corner of the mind, he is waiting to return to India. Some old practices in the village disturb him and make him sad. He has made everyone cry in the scene when he sits in the train and one small 9-year boy runs on the platform for selling the water at 5rs per glass. To show the real emotions you should be real from the heart. Shahrukh Khan has nailed it. He should move off from the roles like Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and Happy New year. His acting abilities are yet not fully utilized.

Gayatri Joshi:- She is good. Though this is her first film she appears to be much perfect. In terms of acting, she doesn’t have to do much.

Kishori Ballal:- She plays a perfect role of village grandmother.

Other  characters:- Just Ok

Music:- A.R.Rahman….Each and every song flatters everyone often again. Especially song…Ye jo des hai tera….This will make every NRI return to India.

Don’t miss this classic movie. Such movies are rarely made.

Written by:-Manish Gupta

Story:- Sarkar is an Indian Political crime thriller movie. It is inspired by the movie Godfather. It is about the crown man called Subhash Nagare in Mumbai. He is work-shipped as Sarkar by his unlimited followers. He is the man who is aggressive in helping the people via Hook or Crook and the term Saam Daam Dand Bhed. He is living with his family in the big villa with his two sons. His one son is psyco man who keeps on misusing his name. His other son is in the USA. At the times Sarkar gets trapped in the unknown case and his son arrives in the Mumbai to meet him. This case changes the life of Sarkar and his son.

This movie resembles the one tiger man who ruled Mumbai for more than 50+ years. RGV….much words can speak about him. He is a man who believes in the much different ways of film making. His ways of film making are much more different. He uses the Technology and camera techniques in much smarter ways. They are much closer to real situations. Starting scene speaks all about the RGV rules of filmmaking where we see one man is sitting in the front of Sarkar who is emoting his pain to Sarkar for the justice. Here we see much of the scene is completed in the voice over terms where on the other side while narrating the voice over the entire area where the Sarkar is living is covered. This is a much different way of film making which keeps the audience involved in a story from the starting of the film. Dialogues inside the film add much more punching power. No one can use the Camera angles techniques in a much smartest way the RGV does.

Big B:- No words….He doesn’t even need the dialogues to do the scene. He can even do it via powerful use of body-language and his eyes. Its pleasure to watch him at the age of 70 to portrait this powerful role.

Abhishek Bachchan:- Despite the son of Big B, he has proved himself in front of his father. It's not easy to act and prove himself in front of the superstar power of Big.B.

Zakir Hussain:-This man is the hidden diamond. His character Rashid…is as Badass as the Sarkar

Kota Rao(Silvermani):- The antagonist character adds value to the climax of the film. He is the one who bloodthirsty of Sarkar.

Katrina:- She is wasted

Ravi Kale:- Brillant

KK Memon:- Excellent…He plays the role of the frustrated son of Sarkar.

Music is not too good in the movie. Many times one line’’ Govinda…Govinda” keeps on playing in the background. I didn’t understand why is it played?

For the terms of Script…Cinematography and the ultra direction style of RGV I will recommend to watch the film again and again. I also recommend all the writers to purchase this movie and learn from each and every scene of the movie.

It is one of the masterpiece of RGV
