The Last Lear perhaps is one of the most beautifully made art film that I have seen. The USP of this film was the rare combination of Amitabh Bachchan and director Rituparno Ghosh.Both are masters of their field.Amitabh Bachchan is the ultimate hero in Bollywood while no one can be better than Rituparno Ghosh in direction.

For me,being an ardent movie lover,this combination was the biggest reason to see this film.But I was highly impressed to see the efforts of the other actors like Preity Zinta,Arjun Rampal and the very talented Shefali Shah..Arjun Rampal and Preity Zinta also my favorites have outdone themselves and have proved they too can be brilliant in acting.Hats off to Rituparno Ghosh for taking the best out of his stars in this film.The last lear perhaps is the most well made art film I have seen.

Mithya is a completely different film from what we see today.Hats off to Planman Motion pictures and the director for taking the risk and coming out with a subject so different. I don't think any of the star casts in the film failed to deliver.But for me it was Ranvir Shorey who is simply too good in his role throughout.In his recent film I M 24,Ranvir who plays one of the lead role, is as good as he was in Mithya.Mithya is his film.He is a very good comic actor who does not get his dues or does not even get many opportunities.But he grabbed the opportunity and proved that Bollywood has much more talent than it actually thinks. Apart from Ranvir,Naseeruddin with a brief role was good and entertaining as well.Music was not on top but yes they are good to listen to.Mithya over all is a good film that must be watched to see Ranvir is capable of.

The storyline of the movie seems simple but what sets it apart is the treatment and screenplay. The attempt to capture a 21st century setting in black and white film is definitely a bold step - a positive risk taken by both the director and the producer - Planman Motion Pictures. This textural treatment also enables the wonderful interplay of light and shade and highlights the grey shades of all human relations and emotions. Ghosh leaves a lot to our own interpretation. He shoots his characters in tight close-ups, exposing them to our scrutiny, but doesn't pass any value judgments himself. And that I think is the greatest triumph of this brilliant film—the best I have seen from Ghosh.
