Go Goa Gone ..!!

The story is about three friends & their adventurous trip to Goa with babes, drugs, booze, non-cool & mostly Firang Zombies. And their extremely amusing attempts to escape the Island.
Yeah!! that's what their director thinks.

Two absolute uninterested souls (Luv & Hardik) come to Goa to have fun with their friend Bunny who is on business trip to Goa too. And their fun trip takes a complete U-turn and they end up being at complete barren island full of zombies & Luna (Luv's new crush) & Boris (a self-proclaimed Russian Mafia).

Though trailers advertised it as very promising and first of its kind - 'Zom-com' genre. Even it carried a huge message of 'Say no to drugs' & 'Respect Girls'. Yes, the promise was kept, the first half of the movie was a definite full-on entertainment that brings on the laughs while having you on the edge of your seat.
But during the later half it becomes a little expected, hide and seek dodging game between alive & dead's which definitely lacked conviction.
Drugs being so powerful that they convert humans to zombies was really lame & un-realistic Indianized concept. And using cocain to freeze them was another.

The jokes, sexually charged humor, Boris's alternating Dilli to Russian accent & typical desi-dilli slangs while shooting bullets, Hardik's confusion 'So this is not a moment?', Bunny's real dumb questions and out-of-box replies & Hardik's ultimate attempts to get girl - gives several laughed out loud moments.

‘Slowly slowly’ and ‘Khoon choos le’ are top chart busters according to me for their completely different lyrics & catchy tunes & ‘Babaji ki booty’ is another groovy & insane track.

Forget your senses, logic & dump your mind and get ready for a laughing riot & to 'Keel dead Peepal'.

Now very importantly, 'What do we know and what have we learnt?'
I knew its gonna be a zom-com movie and learnt it is actually about a 'Trippy ride to Goa!!'

Gippi "Over dose of Sweetness"

My name is 'Gurpreet Kaur' par pyaar se mere friends mujhe 'Gippi' bulate hain and ap bi mujhe 'Gippi' bula sakte ho."

Gippi is overweight, less talented, back bencher, crazy, a little confused, 14 year old gal, happy go-lucky, sweet, sugary gal, who loves eating sweets, happy with her friends, enjoys being with her nerd crushes, always tormented by her school mate "SHamira" & loves dancing to Shammi Kapoor's tunes

Yeah Shamira is a starved, dusky tip-top gal who is very studious yet wicked and wants to be best no matter what.

The story is about a normal gal who fell in love with a guy. He is smart, cool-dude and a High school student.
Just a second not exactly love but she is infactuated by the charm, charisma and hawwtness of the guy. Off-course as a gal you can truly relate your few feelings, acts and behavior to her. Wait!!! This is not over.

There's much more to it...The movie also talks about how this gal fights her own disappointments of being fat and not liked by everybody.  Fights against SHamira for head gal elections, makes things correct between her mom-dad. And finds her true love and true friends through this journey of 'Becoming Little Matured'.

It has some great punjabi peppy tracks and Samira's dead face dialect. Her brother 'Booboo' was really great and mom 'Pappi' was little non-digestible as compared to real life mom's.

In all a great movie and i personally felt, "I want to watch more 'Gippi' ..!!"

Shoot out at Wadala..!!


Story started with "Manohar aacha bachaa tha, Kabie shararat nai karta tha. Exam me copy nai karta tha, Gf ko bi copy nai karata tha. Bada hi honhaar baccha tha. Phir ek din kuch aisa hua ki - Sabkuch badal gaya"

Yes the movie talks about a normal student who is very ambitious and wanted to change the life of his family by studying hard and earning good marks in university exams but some weird things happened that changed everybody's life.
The story line is not very strong. Yeah in Indian Cinema we say "The story seems to be inspired by Once upon a time and Shoot out at Lokhandwala & some parts from Tollywood gangster movies".
The dialogues are very heavy. And too much jugalbandi which left me thinking, "No no no no not again, really..!!!"
The heavy-dose of dialogues makes the script more weaker.
Yeah i appreciate the actors, they have done really good job. And considering that it was John's his first movie as a Powerful playboy Gangster, he did fairly good.What i hated was, all the over-dozed screaming scenes of John.
Kangana needs to work more on her accent. Her "Main naa, Woh naa, Aisa hua naa" type dialogues makes her a little weak as a actress. She did justified her part more or less.
Anil Kapoor as a cop seemed almost same as what he did in "Nayak" .
Other actors including Monoj Bajpai were as always good and superb.
And the tracks or numbers or item numbers were also very unpleasing. Sunny Leone's jumping bumping body and skinny Priyanka both of them were looking pathetically useless.

According to me okay for a one time watch, but you can wait till they telecast it on TV
