a quick one

okay hi. I just finished watching this hindi movie called deewanagee which i think means madness. i could be wrong because i obviously am not well-versed in the hindi language. and okay, the majority of people out there don't watch hindi movies on a regular basis like me so this post would probably not interest them. then again, i have to keep reminding myself that it is MY blog so i can write about whatever i want to write about.

Anyway, i'm basically doing a shout-out for this movie Deewanagee because i watched it the second time and it was even better! Its a brilliant movie with excellent actors and i do mean all of them, including the supporting actors. The plot and story is well-written and it keeps you on the edge of your seat, becuase you honestly don't know what's going to happen next. Its one of htose hindi movies that's a thriller and is so well-executed that it keeps you entertained and in the dark all the way to the end. At the end of the movie, you're still left wondering and unsettled about the outcome and its these kind of movies that should get the awards because my god are they difficult to think up.

The main actors, Ajay Devgan, Urmila Matondkar and Akshaye Khanna, were fabulous. Of course Urmila playing the heroine, had to be beautiful and feminine but she wasn't annoyingly naive and damsel-in-distress-like. I must say that Ajay has the worst teeth in Bollywood but he is like the best, if not one of the best actors there. Its interesting because he's not conventionally good-looking, in fact, i don't think he is at all, but boy can the guy act! And he can do different kinds of roles, even comedy! And personally, if someone can pull off Othello with kareena as your Desdemona, i think he's a keeper. Though god know what he sees in kajol, but that's their personal life and i am certainly nto going to comment on that. Lastly, Akshaye though he's also not conventionally good-looking, i cannot say anything bad about a guy with dimples. Those of you who know me( di, A and S out there), know my theory about dimples. Plus the guy was good!!! So yeah, i think those who haven't watched the movie should. My only complaint is that the songs could do with some help. Maybe 3 out of 6 were nice.
The only other movie that caused THAT level of excitement when i watched it was Race(2007), starring Saif Ali Khan, Akshaye Khanna, Bipasha Basu and (urgh) Katrina Kaif. If i can be so determined to watch it in 10 minute clips on YOUTUBE, then believe me, its good. So those two, Deewanage and Race. Must watch.
