Movie first look - Race
Tadka spice - the movie Race has fast caught on with the attention of one and all. Click on ‘Read more’ to see how this movie has ‘Race-d’ ahead with it’s promos, which are the talk of the town.
The risky business of horse racing, combined with a plot of a marriage, two hot bookies, a supermodel, and in true Abbas-Mustan style, a murder, all weaved into one helluva ride, called Race.
Abbas-Mustan, who last tasted true success with Aitraaz, which released just about three years back in November, 2004, and with a lukewarm response to 36 China Town, which came just six months after that, have a lot at stake with Race. Their last movie Naqaab, released last year, sank without a trace.
And with a superhot cast which has Anil Kapoor, Saif Ali Khan, and Akshaye Khanna along with the hotties Bipasha Basu, Katrina Kaif and Sameera Reddy, the expectations are as high as anything. The promos which first came with just a mysterious background soundtrack, have now a sizzling number ‘Allah duhaai hai‘, to add to their charm.
The stars are looking as hot as ever, and leading the looks category are the talk of the town, Saif Ali Khan, and Bipasha Basu. Both allegedly Read more

Of late, Subhash Ghai, the showman of Bollywood has been playing quite a gamble of sorts, and most of it has been paying of.
With Black-N-White he delves into a new subject. Black-N-White has been directed by the ace director Subhash Ghai himself. Production house Mukta Arts Ltd. now brings to the viewers a human story entangled with the noirish backdrop of violence and danger. Aptly titled, Black-N-White is the story of a relationship between a professor and a young terrorist. And the first look has caught the attention of everyone, quite easily.

Movie review - Halla Bol
Tadka question - Is Halla Bol another winner from the stable of Rajkumar Santoshi? You bet it is! Click on ‘Read more’ to view the complete movie review.
Rajkumar Santoshi is back! And this time he has Ajay Devgan, Vidya Balan along with the superbly talented Pankaj Kapoor in the lead. Halla Bol is one movie which comes in the spate of socially relevant flicks that have captured Bollywood in the recent past, like Rang De Basanti and Lage Raho Munnabhai. And even though one may like to beleive that Mr. Santoshi has given in to this ‘trend’, one cannot ignore the fact that long before RDB and LRM, it was Mr. Santoshi himself who made movies like Damini, which we remember very well till date.
Halla Bol is the story of a small town lad Ashfaque (Ajay Devgan), who dreams of making it big in the Hindi Film Industry. In order to inch towards his dream’s realization, he starts honing up his skills under the aegis of Sidhu (Pankaj Kapoor), a reformed dacoit, who uses his street theatre group to deliver socially relevant messages to the masses. Soon Ashfaque becomes a huge star wit the name of Sameer Khan. But soon after that Read more
