An action feast!
He is a ruffian. Robust in build! Ugly in looks! Terror to trouble shooters! He can put down tormentors who come from any direction. He can rise above the ground and use his two legs to hit at the prominent nerve at the neck. That…
Dhruv is detectable!
Passion is in all great searches and is necessary to all creative endeavors. Creativity is merely a plus name for regular activity€¦ any activity becomes creative when the doer cares about doing it right or better. In the case of 'Snehanjali' the lead actor a…
It is disgusting
Another star son film this week also suffers from lack of good story, narration and deftness. Vinod Prabhakar like Vinodraj in 'Shukra' has scores of action scenes and that suits his gigantic build. Vinod Prabhakar is on the foot steps of his late father Tiger…
A cocktail of fun and more fun
Remember the theme music of 70s flicks like AMIR GARIB, FAKIRA and TRAIN amongst the more popular YAADON KI BARAAT, KAALICHARAN and of course JOHNNY MERA NAAM, which is considered no less than a cult classic today? When you hear similar music in the opening…

Director of repute Nagathihalli Chandrasekhar is ahead of time. For the fate of 400 million people in India in 2015 he sends across as a message. As a prelude to it he has made 'Mathad Mathadu Mallige' €“ a small village big story. Kannada cinema…
Mayoor shines
In this long drawn out love saga director Madan Patel has made fairly engaging film. The second half filled with anxious moments keeps the audience guessing. At the fall out of the last reel you would find the labor of love lost resulting in shattered…
