Here is the review for the movie Bang Bang. Watch out this space for more updates!

Rating:2/5 Review By:Rajeev Masand Site:RajeevMasand

Bang Bang is an official remake of the mediocre Tom Cruise-Cameron Diaz starrer Knight And Day, and it’s fashioned as a fast-paced actioner, which basically means the plot is going to be threadbare. Hrithik Roshan is Rajveer, a mysterious thief who’s stolen the Kohinoor diamond, no less. As he dodges both the cops and the henchmen of a criminal mastermind who wants the rock, Rajveer meets Harleen (Katrina), who gets sucked into this globetrotting adventure with him.

Siddharth Anand's Bang Bang makes more noise and little sense. This desi adaptation of the 2010 Tom Cruise-Cameron Diaz action thriller, Knight And Day, has charm in abundance, primarily because of its effervescent lead pair -- Rajveer/Jai ( Hrithik Roshan) and Harleen (Katrina Kaif). But it lacks coherence. Disbelief is writ large on the face, right at the start.

Rating:1.5/5 Review By:Raja Sen Site:Rediff

Bang Bang is all about Roshan stealing the Kohinoor -- which, given the film's advertorial bent, I'm surprised wasn't a product placement for basmati rice. The world is thus after him, but he falls for a naive girl dreamily hunting for a "kitna susheel" boy, possibly the only girl in the world who takes one look at the legendary diamond and asks what it is. Brilliant. Besides the consistently cringeworthy dialogue, all Bang Bang holds are stunts.

Singer Yesudas sparks a row by commenting against women wearing jeans

National award winner and music legend Yesudas on Thursday sparked a row when he made a statement against women wearing jeans.

At a inaugural cleanliness drive under Swachh Bharat Campaign at Thiruvananthapuram, Yesudas commented saying, "Women should not trouble others by wearing jeans. When they put on jeans, men are tempted to look beyond that".

The singer further added, "Women’s beauty lies in their modesty. They should not try to become like men. They should not force others to do unnecessary things by wearing jeans, which would give them magnetism".

‘Bigg Boss 8’ Day 11: Sonali Raut re-enters BB House and how!

The day begins with Diandra whispering bad words about Gautam’s action the previous night, with Upen. Later, we see Gautam and Diandra pulling each other’s leg. Soni tells Puneet and Praneet about everyone’s collective decision to boycott Gautam.

At the breakfast table, Deepshika, Karishma and a few others order Praneet to make tea for them. Praneet accepts their order calmly and indulges in a hush-hush talk with Puneet while doing the work. He tells Puneet that when the right time comes, he will make them all make 50 cups of tea a day. (remember, Praneet and Gautam are supposed to work and live like a servant in BB house)

“Haider” meets “Bang Bang!”, Shraddha sings sans makeup for Hrithik’s dare

As part of a marketing strategy Hrithik Roshan has been giving “Bang Bang dares” to his fellow actors over the past few days. The actor dared Shraddha Kapoor to sing a song sans makeup. He tweeted, “#bangbangdare 4 @ShraddhaKapoor readjusted on demand! render a song sans make up! Real beauty AUDIO And VISUAL!! Can't ask 4 more! ACCEPT??”

Shraddha completed the challenge, and tweeted, “Hai der @iHrithik here it is! No make up video of me singing, ONLY FOR YOU!”

In the video, Shraddha sings a combination of Nancy Sinatra’s “Bang bang”, which was originally sung by Cher, and “Aao na” from “Haider”. She is also posing with a gun, while she sings the song beautifully.

When Aamir Khan put the transistor down for Hrithik's Bang Bang dare!

We remember the controversial PK poster which had Aamir Khan posing in the nude except for a transistor that hung over him. Hrithik's Bang Bang dare was a cheeky one this time, addressed to Aamir. He wrote, “By POPULAR DEMAND! today's #bangbangdare goes 2 d man himself THE PK! @aamir_khan! Your dare is -" PUT THE TRANSISTOR DOWN!!"

“Nahin karoge to punishment milega! Who bhi bangbang style mein! Kya bolte ho logon? ACCEPT?? @aamir_khan,” he added.

And Aamir was game for it!

Haider Movie Review

Here is the review for the movie Haider. Watch out this space for more updates!

Rating:5/5 Review By:Raja Sen Site:Rediff

Haider changes all that, with filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj probing into the valley nimbly and incisively -- we may, at this point, picture the director as a particularly poetic insurgent, wearing Shakespeare for a cloak.

This is not a simple adaptation, this takes not a simplistic stance; Haider is a remarkable achievement and one of the most powerful political films we've ever made, a bonafide masterpiece that throbs with intensity and purpose.
