Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara Review
I’m taking a break from my Intro To Bollywood series to review a recent release. So instead of talking about a movie that was released nine years ago, I’ll talk about one that came out nine days ago. Which means I will try my best to keep the spoilers to an absolute minimum. I was … Read more
Intro To Bollywood, Movie #7: Mr. and Mrs. Iyer
So far, I’ve mainly spoken about huge commercial films with their high budgets, big dance numbers, larger-than-life stories and famous stars. So for my 7th movie intro, I will like to talk about a small, independent film known as Mr. and Mrs. Iyer. Mr. and Mrs. Iyer is a 2002 Indian film starring Rahul Bose … Read more
Intro To Bollywood, Movie #6: Kal Ho Naa Ho
Since Best Lovers are currently panicking about Dokko Jin’s chances of survival from heart surgery, it feels like the perfect time to review this film.

But it’s not a direct copy (Thank God!) and has its own unique charm and … Read more
Intro To Bollywood, Movie #3: Socha Na Tha
Unlike the two other movies I reviewed, Socha Na Tha doesn’t have big stars nor did it do well at the box office which is a shame because I think it’s a very cute and pretty well done movie. Most fictional romances follow the same formula: Boy meets girl, boy loses girl, boy gets girl. … Read more
Intro To Bollywood, Movie #2: Kuch Kuch Hota Hai
So I didn’t really watch Bollywood movies growing up but I knew people who did and loved it. And when I was younger and had the opportunity to watch one or two, I didn’t even get what all the fuss was about. Even when I saw Lagaan and began to watch more and more Hindi … Read more
Intro To Bollywood, Movie #1: Saathiya
So, I really got into Bollywood around the same time I got into Korean Dramas back in 2004 through one of our local stations. Prior to that, I’d probably seen a movie or two but have no memory of what they were nor was I particularly impressed but believe it or not, I can pinpoint … Read more
