Hmmm....the agony of sitting alone in an almost empty audi at PVR, Gurgaon...on a hot Thursday noon wasn't felt today...maybe coz of the movie's edge of the seat narration....or maybe coz....there...were..afterall...a few people watching the movie... other than the Hindi speaking Nepali ushers ... To be frank...I was very much excited about the movie...coz of its music and Karthi's presence... Music plays a huge role in luring the viewer to the theatre...and this movie is a classic example...Yuvan Shankar Raja's scores played a pivotal part in dragging me to the cinema hall (I had to cut my college today...)...as well as plying me to the seats even between passing moments of boredom and draggery! The best one being Thuli Thuli Mazhayai.....followed by poongatre Poongatre and Adada Mazhaida... Now the story.....well..again its a typical Tamil action flick! The Hero is nothing less than a superhero who can get the hell outta bunch of big fat hooligans...all for the se...

Reflections Umm...I always knew if there was anyone who could get even close to Rahman....in Indian film music...it has to be YUVAN SHANKAR RAJA! I mean...what an awesome song....fell in love with it...the moment I read its name on the raaga.com website! Haricharan (hehe..its HARIHARAN with a C!...:P....) and Tanvi Shah have rendered their voices for this romantic number...that is as foot tapping...as its soulful!......WOW! makes u feel like falling in love.....And Karthi looks dashing in this song.....I think he has all potentials to overtake his Bro....Suriya....(although I havent seen any of his movies...so don't know about his acting!)...though he looks handsome!.... Its very much like...MAZHAYE MAZHAYE from EERAM.....but still sounds fresh....like a teenager falling in love for the first time!....FRESH!... love that part...where he says------ azhagai manadhai parithu vittaley ( With great beauty..she flew away...with my Heart) thuli thuli thuli mazhaiyaai vanthaaley ...

हे या ! Hey Ya! Film: Karthik Calling Karthik Singers: Loy Mendonca, Shankar Mahadevan, Clinton Cerejo Music Director: Shankar, Ehsaan & Loy Lyricist: Javed Akhtar My Rating - 9/10 Reflections Ever wondered how it feels like....when you are a very simple guy and are taking your gal on a long drive......on an enchantingly glittering express highway.....on a rainy night........with the freshly wed breeze runs its clustering fingers through your hair.....you look at her...her long brown hair....flowing backwards.....and you really wanna touch them.....wt song wud u hear in ur MANN-MANDIR...(...:P...)...well...ask me....I'd say.....my heart would sing--- HEY YA!....I wanna get closer to you.... After a long time...I have heard something different from Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy.....otherwise...they were getting bit....typecasted...in their compositions... The song...is definitely is nocturnal....u knw...d kinda songs...u wanna listen to ...at late hours...in the night.....on...

I am big fan of Farhan Akhtar...and it doesn't matter wht he's doing...DIRECTING......PRODUCING.....ANCHORING A TV SHOW....or ACTING...I just love him....and his stupid jokes in his PHATI AWAAZ............ So....don't mind....if I end up praising this movie...coz thats wt I'm gonna do..anyway.... Moving on to this psycho-thriller....well..its hard to outcast Karthik Calling Karthik in such a category.....coz...its really not that Psycho types....its a very sweet...romantic....gentle thriller.....which has a good story....that would keep you bound to your seats throughout the run-time of the movie. Even when you go for a lil snack break during the intermission..u'd be probably thinking...."who has called him........again?" A friend of mine told me...that the movie is ok till the climax.....while the climax is one big CHOO-panti....Thank God...I didn't fall for his EXPERT verdict...huh....the stupid guy...wud hv striped me off one good movie.... Thoug...
