This PAATHSHAALA will have less Attendance at the Box Office!


Take a Note of this: Mohabbatein, Taare Zameen Par and 3 Idiots. These three super hit films do not have anything to do with the New Release. The subject of Love, Dyslexia Student and Engineering is well handled and proved to get Medals and Merits in the Entertainment System. But, Paathshaala, also to do with Educational System is all about Reality on Board!
Back to School Anyone? Well, put on your uniform, take your bag of school books, your tiffin box and enter the school. Saraswathi Vidya Mandir. But.. instead of studying and getting educated and promoting to higher standards, here you sing, dance and act as extras in films and reality shows. Yep. The Institution makes the student act over the studies only for commercial purpose. Shahid (English Teacher) ko Yeh pasand nahi. He sings and dances with Kids. Thats reality but No Reality has to be shown for any Media purpose. He over-reacts and also gets the staffs and the teachers to protest. Principal Patekar does not support. Why? Watch the film.
There is no benchmark for the film and the education system (screenplay) is very week. Besides the Teachers (Characters) do not teach (act). Instead of getting an admission fee (ticket fee) for such high amount (multiplex amount), you would rather not get yourself admitted (not watch the film).

This Paathshaala (School) will go with less attendance (viewers) at the School Office (Box Office)

Add another film to the list of Disasters for RGV, and that includes PHOONK Too!


Its the Second Time watch! Nope.. Not the film to watch for the second time, but the Part II... which is like watching the next episode or the continuation of the same film (naturally)! But, at times you feel like you are watching the same episodes again and again that you have watched from the Graveyard of Horror Films of Ram Gopal Darna's Factory! Or should I call it a Workshop now, because his Factory was closed down long back... And no sooner, this workshop would turn to be a Godown and will close down too. And all the evil flop spirits of Raat, Darna Mana Hai, Darna Zaroori Hai, Darling, Agyaat etc will have to be buried in the Graveyard! (Read as: The film reels have to be kept in the godown)
The poster says: The First one was Warning! And this second one will Kill you. Yes, you want to Kill some time laughing at the Ghost! Gosh! No Scary moments at all!
As the story is nothing, but the Camera chasing everyone. Run! (RGV, How many times will you make everyone Run.. Right from Shiva to Road to Daud to Agyaat to Rann). The Family who thought they lived happily everafter in Phoonk 1 and are left to rest in peace have to face the horror as the Dead (Ashwini) is back as the Evil Spirit and she is ought to destroy them. And spare if there is a Phoonk 3 too!
If there is, then I am giving a Warning to RGV - Dare you make another Horror Film! Henceforth a film like Bhootnath and Hum Tum Aur Ghost will be termed as Actual Horror Films! Isnt that a big compliment of insult to the Film-maker?
On a serious note, RGV - stop the Kill, Thrill and Chill. And no more sequels to any of your earlier Sarkars and Agyaats. But spare us, we get to hear that there are two films back to back ready for release.. Rakta Charitra I & II. Isnt this TWO much from him. And also there is a BOO... in the making Too!
But, why am I blaming RGV? The film is directed by his assistant Milind Gadagkar, who makes his debute with this. But, isnt a Shishya more or less copying the Guru. Its RGV's GHOST direction on the phone and on the sets, that makes this film look exactly like Phoonk too!

All I can say is we need to add another Flop to the list of his recent disasters of Agyaat and Rann. And that includes PHOONK Too!

Here comes the PRINCE of Disaster Films!


Maya Maya Maya.... Its all Maya in this Film, which has all Movie Magic Style - That too Copy Cat Styles but no substance. Bike Races, Gun fights and Hell-COPters! Hush!!! Sytlish Cops! Jewel Thief anyone? Yes.. For those who have watched the classic hit by Dev Anand, here comes Vivek Oberoi doing the Anand Act! Definitely not shaking his head all the time! Glances of Styles copied from actors galore (Race, Dhoom, Cash etc).Vivek appears always in black leather, brandishing guns in various poses, grimacing and thrashing around violently, uncertain as to why he is doing it or what will come of it. No idea at all! Girls, Gadgets, Gizmos and Gimmicks. All sick.. definitely not in the same order, though! Everything looks like toys. Girls are Oberoi's Toys, Gadgets looks like Baby Toys, Toy Story is better than these Gizmos and Gimmicks! - No.. wayz.. Its better we play with them!
Oberoi's Angels (Nandana Sen, Aruna Shields & Neeru Bajwa) are Maya Maya Maya to Him. And he has only Woh 5 Din to survive! (Hey, I am not promoting my Film title here)... Memory Loss (Ghajini) and then find for the Memory Chip (Don) Lol! Mixture of various other Style of Film-making! I would rather go in Coma for the duration of the entire film and then get back to my senses to move out of the Operation Theatre (oops.. Cinema Theatre)
What a waste of attempt? Crores of Rupees gone in the Air.. Yes, most of the shoot is in the Air.. Fly High! But, the Collections have dropped and the Film will be out in a week plus time too!
This PRINCE is actually Princeless and can be crowned the PRINCE of Disaster Bollywood Films!

A small TIPS to the Producers: Do not dare to make PRINCE 2 - like you might have planned. And Never ever make a Film with Vivek Oberoi (who thinks he is a Super Man or a Krissh or a James Bond) Lol!
P.S: TIPS is producing this film! ha Ha ha!!!

Jaane Kahan Se Aayi Hai - Jacquiline Kahan Ko Jayegi!


Man from Earth - Women from Venus...
Ritiesh and Jacquiline who made love as a fantasy in Alladin is now back to take their love story forward and Ritiesh says: Jaane Kahan Se Aayi Hai. Yeh Ladki toh Srilanka se Aayi Hai...(Jacquiline is from Lanka)
Let me get back to the postportem of this film.
Shah Rukh Khan beware.. Farah Khan has gone ahead and shot her film Tees Maar Khan with Akshay Kumar.. and her fondness for the Khiladi Actor is showcased in some scenes in this film. We have the new camp here - Akki, Piggy, Amrita, Farha, Sajid added to which Ritiesh and Jacquiline - all go HOUSEFULL (thats Sajid's film with the same team).
Story: Well I told you already - Man from Earth and Women from Venus..
What can you expect? Quite Predictable - Women from the Alien land does not know the Human Activities... She has to be trained... Jaadoo.... And then, explain to her about LSD... Love, Sex and Doc too (as she does not know how the babies are born)...
A entertainer in parts.. but boring in many parts too...The debutante director Milap Zaveri's has done a decent entertainer... only for one time Watch... Actually, I was looking at my Watch every now and then last night, ki when will the film get over! Yawn and Zzzz.. as I was feelin' sleepy!
All I can say is - Sridevi the Queen, from whom this song has been taken (Chaalbaaz) - Na Jaane Kahan Se Aayi Hai - has done three films (she came from the Heaven) - As Angel in Chandramukhi, Aasman Se Gira and Aadmi Aur Apsara - And she was wonderful in all the three... So, you know that - Sridevi Kahan Se Aayi Hai and Jacquiline Kahan Ko Jaayegi! - No where.. The film toh do hafte main theatre se baahar chali jaayegi!
