the minds
of men guarding the frontiers, Shaurya is
all about finding the courage to stand up
for what one thinks is right. Rahul Bose
and Javed Jafferi play army advocates; one
is serious about being in the army while
the other is looking for an opportunity
to get away. They handle their biggest case
yet as they tackle the iron willed Kay Kay
Menon who plays a ruthless senior army officer.
Both of them discover their true callings
and stand up to the challenge that life
throws at them, they find the fire within-Shaurya.
Minnisha Lamba plays a brave young lady
who is out to uncover truth at any cost.
Music:
Doesn't find much importance in such a movie
but the Dheere Dheere number does leave
an impression. But the pick is the Shaurya
Kya Hai voice over by Shah Rukh which tries
to find the real meaning of valor and courage.
2. Brahm
Cast: Dino Morea, Milind Soman, Sheetal
Menon
Preview:
Well, director Pawan Kaul has claimed to
have made an intense psychological thriller.
As it is with such movies very little about
the plot has been let out but one hopes
it is not love triangle kind of thriller
which involves betrayal, murder and a investigation.
We have been getting too many of that kind
in the recent past. Of course, with a star
cast like this we cannot rule out that possibility.
However, one thing we can be sure of is
that the outfits and accessories worn by
the cast will be in vogue, after all aren't
all three supermodels.
Music:
There is energy and verve but also a certain
predictability, haven't we heard this kind
of a song before, feeling. You will like
Jaane Kaise Hai, Teri aankho ki and Laagdaa
for their beats.
3. Khuda Kay Liye
Cast: Fawad Khan, Alex Edwards, Naseeruddin
Shah
Preview:
Set in a post 9/11 world that is torn apart
by doubt and mistrust. Khuda Kay Liye tells
us how Muslims in different parts of the
world suffer isolation due to the violence
stemming out of a few radical groups. The
story is told through the lives of two brothers
who love music but are forced to part from
it by extremist groups, how their ways separate
and one goes on to become an active extremist.
The movie has received very positive critical
response from many festivals across the
world and has also created a minor flutter
in Pakistan.
MUSIC THIS WEEK:
1. Tashan
Music Director: Vishal-Shekhar
An album designed to match the style quotient
of the movie. Yashraj rarely disappoints
with music. The songs you will like
Chhaliya:
An energetic foot tapping number aptly rendered
by Sunidhi Chauhan. You will definitely
enjoy this one.
Falak Tak
A romantic number that can really relax
you, a pleasant surprise in a movie that
you thought will be all style. The song
reminds you of the late 80s early 90s love
numbers with those mushy lyrics. Certainly
worth hearing.
Tashan Mein
Must be the theme song of Tashan. Its all
style, attitude and everything else the
movie is supposed to be about, though you
can't deny a Sufi/Punjabi slant in certain
areas.
Also the four Tashan commentaries do sound
short and crisp.
SNEAK PREVIEW NEXT WEEK
The summers big splash is up next week……
1. U Me aur Hum
Ajay and Kajol once again….. This
time it is family and love………
2. Krazzy 4
The Roshan dream after Krishh. Now, how
many item numbers does a movie need. 1,2….?
No, 3 think the producers of Krazzy 4. So
we have SRK, Hrithik and Rakhi Sawant……..
3. Music: Big B as a lovable haunting ghost……
