Aranyak

Watching this webseries on Netflix, started watching sometime last year, however since the content is mature it's hard to find time during the day while kids are around. However recently tried to binge a couple of episodes a time during weekends late night. On episode 6 now... Hopefully will be done by this weekend!!

All seasoned actors, surprisingly Raveena as well. 

2023 - hoping to starting blogging again on the web series / movies I watch

De Dana Nan, had high expectations, the movie could not entertain enough with the repetitive confusions as seen in prior Priyadarshan movies like hulchul, hungama alike.

Was a one of the special days when we planned to watch this movie, so kept an optimistic outlook.

Verdict: Skip it!

I only noticed the release date now :)

Luck by Chance is about making of a Star aVikram Jai Singh (Farhan).

The movie opens with Sona and audience is made to beileve its about her, but soon Vikram is introduced and the movie begins to revolves around Vikram. Out of the two charactes, who later seem to depict "success" and "failure" respectively, I really liked Sona's (Konkana) character. She comes out very strong in the movie.

Verdict: Watch it if you have some extra time.

Country India

Tum Bin, introduced 4 new actors in main lead. I had seen the movie in bits and peices when it realised but only got a chance to see it in full on you tube tonight - upto 3 AM :)

I liked the movie for it simplicity and flowing nature. I really liked Priyanshu (Shekhar) and wonder why didn't these actors do good in the industry after a movie like this!? The only thing i thought that could have been improved in the movie was direction, in terms of intensifying some scenes... the only intense scene in the movie is on the bridge when Shekhar decides to leave the company. Also the end is too abrupt - i would have liked to see Tiya and Shakhar together a little more.

Verdict: Over all a nice film with great sound track

The poem from the movie
"Tum Bin Jiya Jaaye Kaise
Kaise Jiya Jaaye Tum Bin
Sadiyon Se Lambi Hain Raatein
Sadiyon Se Lambe Hue Din
Aa Jaao Lautkar Tum, Yeh Dil Keh Raha Hai

Phir Shaam-E-Tanhaai Jaagi
Phir Yaad Tum Aa Rahe Ho
Phir Jaan Nikalne Lagi Hai
Phir Mujhko Tadpaa Rahe Ho
Phir Mujhko Tadpaa Rahe Ho

Is Dil Mein Yaadon Ke Mele Hain
Tum Bin Bahut Hum Akele Hain
Aa Jaao Lautkar Tum, Yeh Dil Keh Raha Hai

Kya Kya Na Socha Tha Maine
Kya Kya Na Sapne Sajaaye
Kya Kya Na Chaaha Tha Dil Ne
Kya Kya Na Armaan Jagaaye
Kya Kya Na Armaan Jagaaye

Is Dil Se Toofaan Guzarte Hai
Tum Bin To Jeete Na Marte Hai
Aa Jaao Lautkar Tum, Yeh Dil Keh Raha Hai

Tum Bin Jiya Jaaye Kaise
Kaise Jiya Jaaye Tum Bin
Sadiyon Se Lambi Hain Raatein
Sadiyon Se Lambe Hue DinAa Jaao Lautkar Tum,
Yeh Dil Keh Raha Hai... "
