Tera Intezaar
Tera Intezaar (English: Waiting for
you) is a 2017 Bollywood musical romantic film, directed by Raajeev Walia and
produced by Aman Mehta and Bijal Mehta. The film stars Arbaaz Khan and Sunny
Leone in lead roles.
The film's plot seems simple -
Arbaaz's character paints the woman of his dreams and that's the character of
Sunny Leone. They both fall head over heels in love but Sunny’s past catches up
with her, which makes it a lethal deal for Arbaaz, who goes missing. Sunny
Leone is adamant to find the love of her life only to discover all this is not
as it seems. Will true love find its way? The film appears to be a Sunny show
all the way. It also features a dance number, where she dances "like a
Barbie doll". Between a painting that paints itself and a car which
suddenly breaks down after all four tires burst at the same time, you get the
sense of some paranormal activity. Khan is nowhere to be found while his lady
is dealing with abusive men, which makes you wonder — Is he responsible for the
notoriety?
The film has Arbaaz Khan, Sunny
Leone, Arya Babbar, Sudha Chandran, Salil Ankola, Hanif Noyda, Richa Sharma,
Bhani Singh and Gowhar Khan.
The music of the film is composed
by Raaj Aashoo while the lyrics have been penned by Shabbir Ahmed. The film has
songs like "Intezaar" (Title Song), "Barbie Girl" ,
"Khali Khali Dil", "Mehfooz", "Abhagi Piya Ki",
"Abhagi Piya Ki" (Version 2), "Mehfooz" (Reprise) and
"Mehfooz" (Version 2).
Firangi
Firangi (English: Foreigner) is an Indian
Hindi-language period action-comedy drama film set in the year 1920. It is
directed by Rajiev Dhingra. The film stars Kapil Sharma, who is also the
producer, along with Ishita Dutta and Monica Gill. The film was shot primarily
in Punjab and Rajasthan.
In 1920 during India's freedom
movement, one man firmly believes the British are not as bad as everyone
believes. Set during the British Raj in India, the colonising Englishmen are
demonised with glee, the Indian kings are shown as selfish, soulless beings,
and the poor villagers are simpletons. But there’s a rustic charm to the comedy
as this film dwells on an isolated incident that unites gullible villagers
against the cruel colonisers, and not a snapshot of the Independence struggle
or the bloodbath ensues. Sharma plays the simpleton Manga who falls in love
with Sargi (Ishita Dutta). It’s love at first sight for Manga, but it isn’t
their tender romance that keeps us hooked. The second half, which is filled
with a mad bunch of villagers trying to outwit the evil royalty and an Englishman,
are the best parts about the drama. Sharma should ideally stick to comedy — his
mushy Romeo turn feels contrived. Dutta, the village belle who captures his
fancy plays Sargi, is in a forgettable role. She’s on call to look like a
hapless damsel. But the same cannot be said for Kumud Mishra, who plays the
greedy, lustful king Raja Inderveer Singh, or Rajesh Sharma who plays Sargi’s
father. They manage to bring some zest into the period comedy. Raja Inderveer
Singh colludes with an English government official to uproot a village and
build a liquor factory in its place. He even pawns his posh Oxford-educated
daughter, played by Monica Gill, off to the Englishman for better profits. Manga
— who is known as the miracle man because he can heal people’s back problems
with a kick on their backside — gets unwittingly involved in their modus
operandi. The next thing you know Sharma is taking charge and outwitting the
English and the villains with a combination of buffoonery and sharp-wittedness.
The climax is long-drawn but enjoyable.
The film has Kapil Sharma as Manga,
Ishita Dutta as Sargi, Monica Gill as Princess Shyamali Devi, Edward
Sonnenblick as Mark Daniel, Kumud Mishra as Raja Inderveer Singh, Neeta
Mohindra as Maharani, Rajesh Sharma, Inaamulhaq, Aanjjan Srivastav as Lala Ji,
Jameel Khan, Vishal O Sharma, Maryam Zakaria, Roshni Walia and Naisha Khanna.
All music is composed by Jatinder
Shah. The film has songs like "Oye Firangi", "Sajna Sohne
Jiha", "Sahiba Russ Gayiya", "Tu Jit Jawna", "Gulbadan"
and "Sahiba" (Male Unplugged).
Ajji
Ajji (English: Granny) is an Indian
Hindi language drama film directed by Devashish Makhija. The film stars Sushama
Deshpande, Sharvani Suryavanshi, Sadiya Siddiqui, Manuj Sharma, Sudhir Pandey,
Kiran Khoje, and Smita Tambe in major roles. "Ajji" has been
positioned as a dark take on the classic fairy tale, "Red Riding
Hood". The film is backed by Yoodlee Films, a production venture of
Saregama.
Little Manda is found raped and
dumped in a trash heap in her slum. Her parents are more concerned with
survival than dignity and want to forget and move on. The cops are powerless to
help as the rapist is a local politician's son. But Manda's grandmother Ajji
cannot accept the injustice of it all. Can a frail, arthritic and powerless old
woman grapple with the big bad wolf? Is there still hope for justice in a cruel
world? Can anything act as a deterrent to rape? Ajji is a parable of our times.
There are no easy answers.
The film has Sushama Deshpande as
Ajji, Sharvani Suryavanshi as Manda, Sadiya Siddiqui as Leela, Smita Tambe as
Vibha, Abhishek Banerjee as Vilasrao Dhavle, Vikas Kumar as Dastur, Sudhir
Pandey as Sharafat, Kiran Khoje as Dhavle's wife, Manuj Sharma as Umya, Shrikant

customer in salwarat at Sharafat shop, Kamod Kharade as Gawli, Shreyas Pandit

Aditya Yadav as sound editor.
