Bajirao Mastani- 2015 Director: Sanjay Leela Bhansali

Bajirao Mastani is a story of Maratha Warrior Peshwa Bajirao and warrior princess Mastani. Mr. Bhansali has made a lifetime record of perfection and magic together. The war scenes in the film are crafted at high scale with awesome dimensions. He is known to paint his artistic and unique thoughts on cinema screens. This Magnum Opus will melt your heart and leave you numb at the end. With Sheer Brilliance of camera work,direction, screenplay and music composition, it is staggeringly prodigious. The dialogues are Huge & Deep. The credit for Splendid cinematography goes to Mr. Sudeep Chatterjee. Just WOW! The decor and sets are majestic, exquisite and extravagant #Bajirao (a.k.a) Ranveer Singh has nailed it with his pageant and superlative performance. Being a hard core warrior and the most precious thing Maratha's ever had; he fought 41 battles and won all of them. The tragedy begins when this warrior won every challenge in his life but lost himself when fell in love with #Mastani. What Intensity, Pride, Courage, Love all in one man Peshwa Bajirao! He has shown tremendous acting skills and left the audience numb with with his heart-catching work. Loved it. I tip my hat to you Ranveer Singh.

#Mastani (a.k.a) Deepika Padukone is a warrior princess and a lover. Mastani was terrifically brave at heart and sword both. Knowing the fact that loving #Bajirao will make her walk on thorns but still she dared to love Peshwa. Charming & deadly gorgeous Deepika has acted with her eyes. Love shines with every expression given by Mastani. She has given unprecedented nuanced performance. The dialogue delivery by Deepika was totally incredible & unbelievable. She gets humiliated countless times by #Bajirao's family but still her love for him never fell an inch.

#Kashibai (a.k.a) Priyanka Chopra So electrifying. She has done complete justice with her character. Kashibai loves her husband to death. Each time she looks at Raao her face lightens up. When Bajirao fell in love with Mastani, his wife Kashibai doesn't surrender to this. She is angry. She is heart-broken, doleful but still she asked Bajirao to save Mastani's life when some men were sent to Mastani Mahal to brutally kill her. Kashibai surely had generous heart and for the sake of her husbands happiness she accepts the situation as she was aware of the fact that #Mastani has become #Bajirao's weakness. Take a Bow Priyanka Chopra .

Tanvi Azmi has played the mother of Bajirao. She was the villain and a mother both at the same time. Very skilfully and beautifully she has shown the positives and negatives in one character.

Anju Modi has loaded Ranveer Deepika and Priyanka with the most extraordinary costumes.

Mr. Bhansali handles Bajirao's arrogance, Mastani's obsession for Bajirao and Kashi's dignity most sympathetically. Every visual is a Grand painting with music being the soul of the film. The choreographers has put in great energy and marvelous art in making of #Malhari #Pinga and #DeewaniMastani. Every emotion in the film- be it love, virtue or heroism on the battlefield- is translated into grandeur.

After #DDLJ I think Bajirao Mastani deserve to stay glued on cinema screens and complete 1000 weeks.

NH 10- 2015 Director: Navdeep Singh

Director Navdeep Singh is back with another gritty thriller. Starring Anushka Sharma and Neil Bhoopalam, NH10 is a thriller based on real-life incidents that exposes us to the harsh reality of life. NH 10 is definitely not meant for typical bollywood audience. It is something different. Something combined with fear, love and how a young woman cope with such troublesome situation. When I downloaded the songs I was not expecting the movie to be SO terrifically awesome because the songs were not very catchy but after watching the movie I was speechless. Year 2014 turned the tables and there were many directors who actually played the role of being feminist and made a lot brilliant movies highlighting women and their issues in our society. In Urban areas of countries like India Pakistan Bangladesh etc Honor killing is considered as a pride but unfortunately it is called HEIGHT OF BEING IGNORANT.

Performance-Wise: Anushka Sharma, who also produced the film, delivers a huge, dramatic performance. She displays helplessness with sincerity, but breathers fire when it comes to destroying the villains. This is undoubtedly most power packed performance. Neil Bhoopalam is fairly good in the limited role he appears in. Darshan Kumaar is effortlessly wicked, enacting the chief villain with command. On the whole, 'NH10' is Tough Enough!

'Holiday' a soldier is never off duty- 2014 Director: A.R. Murugadoss Akshay plays Jack Bauer, Sherlock Holmes, Spiderman and Jason Bourne all rolled into one. He is probably one of the best action stars Bollywood has seen reminds us why he is on the highest point of load. Akshay has faced criticism many times for the selection of movies he does but this time am sure people loved him watching in Holiday as Military Agent. The film is all about some real action, suspense and off course a little Thank You to the Military of the respective country. The Director has come up with stirring story-line, action fully packed, sharp editing and masterly cinematography. Sonakshi Sinha looks pretty and sexy wherever required. Govinda gave many laughs. Same goes with Sumeet Raghavan. Freddy Daruwala was perfect as the baddie. Aackruti Nagpal looks hot. The others did their bit as required. A.R Murgadoss directed and he has exquisitely tackled with every scene. Music by Pritam and Background scores are prodigious. RECOMMENDED
