Badlapur

I read positive reviews of this movie yesterday. Some help from twitter and I managed to come across 1 negative review. But Anupama Chopra's verdict sealed the deal and I watched it last night.

The movie stars Varun Dhawan, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Vinay Pathak, Huma Querishi, Yami Guatam, Radhika Apte and Divya Dutta. It has been directed by Sriram Raghavan (of Ek Hasina Thi and Johnny Gaddar fame). I think Ek Hasina Thi is one of the best thrillers of Bollywood. I loved that movie.

Humpty Sharma ki Dulhaniya

I was pretty sure I won't spend money on this flick. It is a remake of DDLJ... why would I want to watch a remake? Why not just watch the original over and over again? After all, it plays on some channel every weekend. Varun Dhawan is a male Sonakshi Sinha. He is there only to ham, dance and show his abs. While Alia Bhatt is too raw and immature to be considered an actress. I liked her in Highway but the story was so damn flawed. She has a lot to learn before she can act.
I was fortunate to find a good copy online... and after some co-ordination KC and I found time yesterday to watch it. And then... we waited for the other to turn it off. After 20 mins of the torture that is this movie I switched it off.

Main Tera Hero

Reasons not to watch the movie:
- Its called 'Main Tera Hero'
- Directed by David Dhawan... I have never watched his movies in a theatre... they are bearable only on TV
- Does not star Govinda or Salman
- Stars Varun Dhawan... he does not yet have the star power to pull in audiences for his solo. Atleast strong heroine chahiye thi
- Bad music
