Kidnap (2008)

Also set for release on Eid this year is Kidnap, Imraan Khan’s second film. It’s directed by Sanjay Gadhvi, and also stars Sanjay Dutt, Minissha Lamba, Vidya Malvade, Malaika Arora, Amrita Arora and Rahul Dev. As the name suggests, it’s about a kidnapping case. Seems like there’s going to be an important competition between Abhishek’s Drona and Kidnap. Trying to live up to his great performance in Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na could put a lot of pressure on Imraan. I think the trailer is already out, so look it up on Youtube or somewhere. Should be interesting.

Musi of Kidnap is composed by Prittam. I honestly don’t have any comments on the songs, as I haven’t listened to them yet. But Prittam has made some great music in the past, so I have a good feeling about this one too.

Drona (2008)

Drona is the upcoming film by Goldie Behl starring Priyanka Chopra, Abhishek Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan and Kay Kay Menon in leading roles. It’s set for release this Eid, which is I think October 2nd. It’s an adventure/fantasy movie about Drona (Abhishek) who is destined to save mankind. Fantasy movies aren’t ones made by Bollywood very often so I’m looking forward how what Goldie has created.

Music of Drona is composed by Dhruv Ghanekar, and there a couple of nice songs in this movie. The title song for one is quite a nice song. I hope you like them too.

Dil To Pagal Hai (1997)

Dil To Pagal Hai is one of the best movies of the 90s. It’s directed by Yash Chopra and stars Shahrukh Khan, Madhuri Dixit, Karishma Kapoor, Akshay Kumar, and Farida Jalal. I’m pretty sure that you’ve already watched this film, specially if you are a Shahrukh fan. If you haven’t, I’m not really sure what to say to you. Really nice movie. I specially like the music of Dil To Pagal Hai, which is composed by Uttam Singh. Some of the best songs of Lata and Udit Narayan are from DTPH. I hadn’t listened to them for years, so I’m really enjoying myself right now. I’m sure you will love them too. Enjoy!!

Zindagi Tere Naam (2008)

Zindagi Tere NaamZindagi Tere Naam is director Ashu Trikha’s fourth film. It stars Mithun Chakrabarty, Ranjitha, Diya Mirza, Priyanka Mehta and Aseem Ali Khan. I think it was released some time this month. Music of ZTN is composed by Sajid Wajid. I feel like I’ve heard that first song, Tu Mujhe Soch Kabhi, before but can’t quite remember. It’s a nice song, probably nice song of the lot.

Rock On (2008)

Rock OnFarhan Akhtar who has helmed the director’s seat in Dil Chahta Hai, Lakshya and Don - The Chase Begins is debuting as an actor and singer in Rock On along with Prachi Desai. Others major casts of Rock On include Arjun Rampal, Luke Kenny and Purab Kohli. It’s directed by Abhishek Kapoor. The film is about four friends who put together a rock band called Magik, but never make it big. Many years later, they’re back together and start things where they left off.

Music of Rock On!! is composed by Shankar Ehsan Loy who are I think the best to do a film like this. I love the songs. And Farhan Akhtar is a surprisingly good singer too. I think you are gonna love this one, so ENJOY!!

Video - Paas Ao Na (Saagar)

An nice song from an old film, Saagar, Rishi Kapoor and Dimple Kapadia. I was looking for info about this film, and I came across this video.

Saagar (1985)

SaagarSaagar is directed by Ramesh Sippy and stars Rishi Kapoor, Kamal Hassan and Dimple Kapadia. Raja (Kamal) is a fisherman and he’s secretly in love with Mona (Dimple). But when Ravi (Rishi), a wealthy man, comes to live with his grandmother, Mona falls in love with him and that devastates Raja. That’s the the setting in a nutshell. I haven’t presonally seen the film, so my extent of knowledge ends there.

Music of Saagar is composed by the legendary R.D. Burman. There’s also a little something for Kishore fans. Yun Hi Gaate Rahoo is a nice song, I don’t think it’s one of his best though.

Go (2007)

GoGo is directed by Manish Srivastav and stars Gautam Gupta, Nisha Kothari, Kay Kay Menon and Rajpal Yadav in leading roles. It’s about two rich kids who run away from home for some reason but then they get in all sorts of trouble and get chased by the ‘bad guys’. That’s what I’ve read about it on the net. It’s music is composed by Sneha Khanwalka. The songs are surprisingly better that I expected. Since it’s a low budget film, I had very low expectations too. I guess you can’t read a book by it’s cover after all.
