Rudraksh

I think the movie was made with a limited budget, since the wigs are shared by Sunil Shetty and Sanjay Dutt,no expenses were incurred for hairdressers. There are few extras running around with boxes with Apple insignia on them which are set to motion by the command of a seductive Doctor Gayathri (played by none other than the Bengali Bardot, Bipasha Basu) who tries to scan the inner workings of Varun. This Casting seems to be direct result of her quest for "meaningfull roles" as compared to roles where ice cubes are used to arouse her senses (Jism).Here a non-touch massage technique is used by Varun (her facial expression seem to indicate that the results were the same as the ice cube). Varun (played by Sanjay Dutt),an accomplished actor, somehow goes around giving an impression that he has not been paid for this particular assignment or he has totally given up his hopes on the Awards for the time being), and he seems to take it on Buran? (played by Sunil Shetty).Then there these Desi characters who are speaking in English and American characters talking in Desi and as far as subtitling of tentacals: good day !!!.

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.

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.

... now i've seen it all.

This is no doubt one of the worst movies in existence... the plot is the worst crap ever cooked up by any bird brained scriptwriter. The same must be said of every other person who had anything to do with the movie. I was completely unhinged for a couple of hours after watching this movie. Right in between the innovatively $H!t lines to corny scenes between the leads, lies the plot...

a monkey typing away at random would come up with a plot good enough to beat the $H!t out of this...

The saving grace for the movie is the fact that it is so very bad that you might actually enjoy tearing it to pieces.

To finish ... it is a movie i would wish my very worst enemy to watch , strapped in a chair, with eyes fixed open ... right to the very end

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.
