My latest today.Do check out...
Kolkata is spilling like anything and the streets are turning in to a fun aquatica ride especially in south Kolkata.The recent news that hit me are the quota riots that led to several ruckus in places like Allahabad. Truly sad how nations interest and economy is wasted at the mistake of the learned. Also Pran Saab passed away. A truly remarkable actor, was he, he fell short of nothing when it came to playing a role with coola nd elan. A recent winner of Dada Shaheb Phalke award, he is what people call the master artist. RIP.
Watched Rakeysh OmPrakash Mehra's Bhaag Milkha Bhaag. Truly a nation's salute befitting the great sportsman Milkha Singh. The story-line, Milkha Singh himself has said, is 95% true to his life story and indeed falls nothing short of a patriot who served for his country. with all the great men veiled in the past and their glory trapped in time, or government does little to respect these great people. Of course given the recent scenario the government is busy in other acts that might be termed a racial-ruckus but let's not get into that. The very talented Rakesh OmPrakash Mehra brings the goosebump shaking life-story of the flying Sikh who struggled to live and ran to become a nation's hero. BMB is in all the way a standing ovation to larger than life soldier Milkha Singh.

And that brings us to Farhan Akhtar. boy did he do a great job or what?!! from those high altitude training with tyre tied to his waist to the running he went to the ledge and a step ahead perhaps to portray Milkha Singh. And indeed the portrayal was nothing sort of life-like. Sonam Kapoor was good in the smallrole and also thriving for attention was Rebecca Breed who played the australian interest of Milkha Singh. She was cute. But you got to mention Yograj Singh. Yuvraj's father played a sturdy Indian coach to Farhan's milkha and I should say I am nothing short of impressed. He genuinely evoked passion and was a perfect foil to Milkha's character. the songs are good. Prashoon joshi deserves a hat's off for the script and the lyrics. The songs are truly brilliant and a classic mark of SEL. All in all a must watch. Of course a treatment like Tigmanshu Dhulia's Paan Singh Tomar should not be expected though both were based on real life story and athlete's. ROPM's BMB is more an ode to the Sikh; a commercially viable film. The locales were great and cinematography deserves an applause too.
Do try to catch the film that has received a healthy response from all over the world.
Happy reading.
