Rudraksh

I think the director and writer for this film did not see eye to eye. If they did, they would have known that they had a very good idea, which they poorly executed. With a script like this, you need a big budget to fulfill your dreams. Come on! we are in the 21st century! and you are making a science fiction film like we are back in the 1950s or worse! The script was solid, the actors were wasted, and there was only little the audience could do to suspend their disbelief! Better luck next time. See this film only if you are in the mood for mediocre stuff that might put you to sleep, or send you jumping off a bridge! It such a shame to see such a talented star cast go to waste!

It may be tempting for someone to watch Rudraksh,because it has a top starcast,is said to have Matrix-like special effects,action,etc. etc. But believe me,it's not worth.Not even a bit comparable to the Hollywood thriller. The long and short story-a supernatural story,about a fight between evil and good. Talents of a veteran actor like Sanjay Dutt are simply wasted in this circus of a film. Suniel Shetty is the same as in his other films.

Two ladies with no better work keep moving around the two main characters. Music is unremarkable.The villain also dances and pretends to play piano in this film!

Even if you have no better work, you shouldn't watch Rudraksh.

I will give this film one piece of credit, it has attempted to break the mould in Indian cinema. But the quality of the film was so unbelievably poor, it deserves to rank in the utter depth of IMDb's ratings. Bollywood has the income to finance large products but they won't because of the greed that surrounds the industry. Hopefully another attempt will be made to try to create something original, and hopefully far better than this. This film was absolutely abysmal, appalling, and in certain parts made me cringe in disgust at the movie making. I feel ashamed that such low quality movies are made from my mother nation.

Okay, so we all know that this is the modern day interpretation of some obscure scripture. Yes, modern it is indeed, Bollywood style ofcourse: Where they think everyone in the west dresses like a hooker!

It starts with a scientist in minis and hot pants (!) investigating some healer who can absorb pain [rip off of The Green mile] of his subjects. Typical Bollywood style, girl fall falls for guy, and next scene we have the hip-shaking-on-the-streets...errrr I mean hip-shaking-on-the-ancient-temple [for this movie] sequence.

I guess all the scientists should go to Bombay to learn some raw hip moves.

Then out of no where, this evil guy jumps in, complete with his babe of a moll. We get to see Bollywood take on the Matrix with some terribly low-end results. Then you have lots of sankrit [what the hell is THAT now???] mumbo jumbo thrown in, and God I couldnt even bother watching the end.

This movie was a total mess. The director probably was on a high after his first flick played on people's cross border delusional fantasies and even managed to earn some much needed money, so he thought I might go a few steps ahead and totally 'revolutionise' the film making - yep! this guy truly seems to have global (if rather naive) aspirations :))!!. Unfortunately, or rather fortunately, they are not be realised with 'Rusraksh' - over the top dialogues, some hilarious [albeit unintended] situations and an obscure plot from some weird book about animals and snakes takes this movie down, and buries it deep down the pile of Z-grade trash flicks.

Such a great idea, but the execution ruined everything. Why can't the film makers wait for a script, technology, resources which do justice to the idea?
