Bollywood awards , 3 idiots and sri lanka

You might be wondering what’s  all the news about sri lanka  and bollywood ?. well no relation here really except that  the indian film industry decided to have thier film awards function in Sri lanka ( which is considered like the oscar awards of the bollywod film industry).

IIFA has held its annual awards abroad each year, in a bid to raise the profile of the more than $US2 billion ($A2.38 billion) Hindi film industry and has seen its international success rise as a result. Sri Lanka had hoped that hosting the Indian film stars would showcase the island’s tourism potential after 37 years of ethnic conflict claimed up to 100,000 lives between 1972 and 2009.

But for Bollywood-crazy Colombo sri lankans, even the watered down version of the awards was good enough, with fans wildly cheering every act at the awards that included dance numbers and comedy.

Megastar Aamir Khan’s hit movie 3 Idiots swept the "Bollywood Oscars" in Sri Lanka this weekend, securing 16 out of 27 awards, including best film. The film – a coming-of-age comedy about three engineering students – was nominated in 12 of the 13 main categories at the Indian International Film Academy (IIFA) awards and won eight of them on Saturday night.

Sri Lanka has spent as much as $4 million (2.77 million pounds) on building infrastructure for the IIFA, hoping the extensive media coverage and exposure will help re-build its post-war image among global travellers as a serene, sun-bathed Indian Ocean island.

Loosers vs winners  Shive sena sore loser

But many seats were empty in the newly spruced up Sugathadasa Stadium in the capital Colombo as big ticket stars such as Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan stayed away despite a prior commitment to attend.Bachchan is the brand ambassador for the International Indian Film Academy (IIFA), billed as India’s Oscars, and has not missed a single edition of the awards in the last 10 years.

Performances by stars Salman Khan and Hrithik Roshan were the highlights of the evening, as were a series of Oscar-style spoofs that hosts Riteish Deshmukh and Boman Irani pulled off, poking fun at Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan.

The influential film industry in India’s southern Tamil Nadu state, which is home to many Tamil refugees, called for a boycott, arguing that staging the event in Colombo endorsed Sri Lankan President Mahinda Rajapakse’s government.

New releases – House full , Chase and pathshala

 

House full mini reviews:

 

Its the latest comedy Housefull which boasts of a stellar starcast not excluding a bunch of shapely babes in skimpy bikinis, a tiger, a monkey, and of course Akshay Kumar playing a luckless, lazy loser trying to change his luck by finding true love.

housefull-2010

The movie, set in London and Italy, is a purported comedy of errors about mistaken identities among characters given to slapping each other much too often. In one scene Boman Irani slaps Ritesh Deshmukh, who slaps Akshay, who completes the circle by slapping Boman. In another, the slap-duel is between apna Akshay and an Italian monkey. And for every slap that Akki whacks on the simian, he gets an equally powerful one back. Yes, it’s all about wives, real or fake.

Lara Dutta has to pretend to be the wife of Akshay to keep a lie from getting revealed to her parsi dad Boman Irani. Ritesh Deshmukh, who is Akshay’s friend and Lara’s real hubby, is reduced as her brother. Deepika Padukone whom Akshay loves has an authoritarian brother Arjun Rampal who can’t stand lies. Together the two couple Akshay-Deepika and Ritesh-Lara weave a web of lies from which there’s no escaping when Boman and Arjun come under the same roof with them. Akshay’s wife number three is played by Jiah Khan, a conservative girl who believes in falling in love ‘only after marriage’ provided her marriage lasts that long.it packs in some good humour at times, but his slam-dunk approach to make you laugh in the climax scene is a big letdown

Chase full mini reviews:

 

Chase begins with a high-octane chase and what follows are several twists-n-turns, before the jigsaw puzzle is solved.

But the question is, does Chase provide those adrenaline-pumping moments? Nope, it doesn’t! The problem is, the writing relies too heavily on the tried-n-tested stuff, which robs this thriller of those thrilling moments.

Chase

Chase is a Hindi Movie coming from Jagmohan Mundra immediately after his Apartment Hindi Movie. Chase Hindi Movie is directed by Jagmohan Mundra and is acted by Anuuj Saxena and Udita Goswami and is produced by Anuuj Saxena.Chase Hindi Movie is releasing all over India on Thursday and people are wearing to hear Chase Hindi Movie Review andChase Movie Reviews.

Final word? Chase is akin to soda. Opens with a lot of fizz, but falls flat thereafter!

    Pathshala full mini reviews:

     

    So you have Shahid playing Rahul Prakash Udayvar, an idealist who joins the Saraswati Vidya Mandir School as an English teacher. He notices that things are not as they ought to be. The school management is hard-pressed for funds and tells its principal Aditya Sahai (Nana) to jack things up, improve the image of the school, do necessary marketing and even exploitation if need be, to ensure more moolah in the coffers. So Sahai lets in a team of crude and ill-mannered reality TV crew for a show that will bring the school repute and money. But in the bargain the young school kids are made to endure enormous pressure and physical toil.

    ‘Paathshaala’ tries to answer many questions related to the sanctity of today’s education system. It claims to be an urgent and desperate eye-opening mission for our education system today.Paathshala Movie Poster

    Rahul decides enough is enough and leads the charge against the school policies. Other teachers, including a pretty nutritionist-cum-matron (Ayesha Takia) rally around him.
    The problem with Paathshaala is that it tries to have a say about too many things in too little time. As a result, nothing leaves a lasting impression and the movie ends up a mere collage of obvious clichés on education system.

    35 Crore Deal for Amir khan for Telecom advertisement

    Aamir Khan, fresh from the success of 3 Idiots, has signed a deal with a UAE-based telecommunications service provider reportedly for a staggering Rs 35 crore — the highest a Bollywood celebrity has ever received for endorsement, leaving far behind the previous highs of Rs 12 crore to Rs 15 crore.

    Reports say it is a two-year contract during which period Khan will make himself available for an allotted number of media shoots, press advertisements and personal appearances. Aamir’s own earlier contracts for a biscuit, a cola, a car, an FMCG, a watch maker and a satellite TV service provider are all reportedly in the range of Rs 12 crore; so, by even his own standards, his fees have almost tripled

    BRAND HIGH EARNING LEADERS

    Aamir Khan Rs 35 crore
    Shah Rukh Khan Rs 15 crore
    Akshay Kumar Rs 15 crore
    Hrithik Roshan Rs 15 crore
    Salman Khan Rs 12 crore

    is 3 idiots going to break all records for blokbuster Earnings

    Here is 3 reasons why you should go see 3 idiots

    1.Its got aboslutely Brilliant acting by all three idiots ( and masterji too )

    2.Its leave you laughing and rolling uncontrollably in the aisles

    3.Its not just a story , but a story with a very important liiving life right ( social ) messages thrown in for good measure for today’s generation and also the older generation

    The 3 Idiots characters ( three Idiots)

    chatur ramalingham Rancho Viru shrasbuddhe 3 idiots Three

    The three characters that really  will stay on your mind for a very long log time  is  the character  Rancho ( Amir khan ) Rannchhod Chachar, Chatur Ramalingham (Omi) and professor Viru Sahastrabuddhe (Boman Irani) also called virus for short in the movie by his unhappy  engineering students.

    The acting by Amir khan as is flawless. The 44-year-old actor almost passes off as a 22-year-old collegian, bringing out in his character the the freshness and brashness of the college teen  and vivacity few actors of his age can. Aamir’s courage in dealing with sensitive issues like student suicides, Indian education system, youth power, crossing new bridges are positive moments of the Movie.

    Kareena Amir khan 3 Idiots

    Omi as chatur Ramalingham  plays the part so well of the  nerd or irritating geek that gets on you nerves all the times that you actually want  to get up from your seat ands give him a good thrashing and bullying. His Balatkar scene and his typical Hindi accent were all the more good moments of the movie

    Professor Viru Sahastrabuddhe (Boman Irani)  plays the part of the engineering college  professor  so well that you really feel that he is the most  annoying strict know it all teacher  that  you would surely seen at some time on one of your teachers at school. He has done a brilliant portrayal of an eccentric professor.

    The other supporting actors that have done well also are Farhan (Madhavan) who wants to be a wild life photographer AND Raju (Sharman Joshi), a poor lad who’s so afraid of failure that his fear has come in the way of him becoming successful.

    Chatur’s convocation speech in which the word ‘Chamatkar’ is replaced by ‘Balatkar’ is a  a really funny gag  and i could not help myself from falling in the aisles rolling with laughter but i gotta admit  theh butt baring and dropping of pants was a bit overdone.

    Ragging Engineering college 3 idiots rancho

    Shantanu Moitra’s music and Muralidharan’s cinematography complement the flick well. Rajkumar Hirani spins a yarn that absolutely delights with intelligent dialogue and funny comeback responses. For this alone, ‘3 Idiots’ definitely ought to be seen  again  and again and enjoyed.

    Kareena shines as well, as the spunky medical student in her relatively smaller role

    The 3 Idiots story

    3 idiots will be softly based on Chetan Bhagat’s debut bestseller Five Point Someone which narrates the story of an average IIT guy who just about manages to rise above the very mediocre levels.

    Two friends [Madhavan and Sharman Joshi] embark on a quest for a lost buddy. The movie proceeds through narrations that take you into the flashback when Rancho, Farhan and Raju arrive at a premier engineering institute to begin their course. On this journey, they encounter a long forgotten bet, a wedding they must crash, and a funeral that goes impossibly out of control.

    Viru Kareenas dad 3 idiots bollywood movie amir khan

    As they make their way through the perilous landscape, another journey begins: their inner journey through memory lane and the story of their friend–the irrepressible free-thinker Rancho [Aamir Khan], who in his unique way, touched and changed their lives. The so called “villain” of the flick whose ways are against that of Rancho is the Dean of the college Viru Sahastrabuddhe (Boman Irani). In addition, to make matters worse Rancho happens to find love in his daughter Pia (Kareena Kapoor). It’s a story of their hostel days that swings between Rancho’s romance with the spirited Pia [Kareena Kapoor], and his clash with an oppressive mentor, Viru Sahastrabudhhe [Boman Irani]. The movie has some really hilarious moments with wedding reception mayhem of Viru’s oldest daughter played by Mona Singh, Raju’s father being reached to the hospital in a very funny way on a two-wheeler and so on.

    ZIP UP ZIP DOWN

    And then one day, suddenly, Rancho vanished… Who was he? Where did he come from? Why did he leave? The friend who influenced and inspired them to think creatively and independently, even as the conformist world called them three idiots. Where is the original idiot now? Finally, in misty mountains of unparalleled beauty, the friends find the key to the secret. Three Idiots is a comedy of ideas that is as provocative as it is funny, as wildly entertaining as it is insightful. A laugh-riot that talks about the most important of human pursuits: self-actualization.

    Directed by Rajkumar Hirani, ‘ 3 Idiots ‘ surpassed every other money-making Indian film in countries like the US, Australia, South Africa, Pakistan, Fiji and Kenya. The credit also goes to Abhijat Joshi, Hirani and Vidhu Vinod Chopra for writing such brilliant screenplay, script and dialogues.
