Adding up to the sequel trends, the Bhatts bring us the second installment of Murder, a 2004 release. Though released seven years ago, the film still holds the attention of the audience and obtains high TRPs when aired on small screens. The reason being simple, the spellbinding story, great music and proficient performances with sizzling chemistry makes the film a money spinner till date. Following the legacy of bringing an innovative story on high sexual content (this has always proved to be a winning blend), Mahesh Bhatt and Mukesh Bhatt bring to us Murder 2.
Murder 2 is set in Goa with a Christmas and New Year celebration backdrop. Huge crowd on the streets and beaches, popular tourist destination, happy atmosphere, etc makes it difficult for the authorities to trace down one serial killer, who is spoiling the entire atmosphere. A serial killer story has always proved to be interesting with high thrill and slasher content.
Story:
Arjun (Emraan Hashmi) is an ex-cop who earns money by doing odd jobs for gangsters and flesh traders. Priya (Jacqueline Fernandez) is a model in love with Arjun. But he is hesitant to commit to this relationship.
A Goan flesh-peddler called Sameer is suffering heavy loss as his hookers have been disappearing mysteriously. Sameer assigns Arjun to trace the missing girls. Arjun finds that all those girls are connected to one cell phone number and makes a plan to catch the antagonist Dheeraj (Prashant Narayan). He decides to send a girl to the particular customer. Reshma (Sulagna Panigrahi) becomes the innocent prey to the plan. She is a college student who takes to prostitution to support her family. The unexpected happens and both Dheeraj and Arjun land up at the police station. While Dheeraj admits his crime, Arjun gets one night to find all proof against Dheeraj and also to trace Reshma.
Plus points:
Taking forward the Murder brand the sequel gives an edge of the seat entertainment. The story is totally new with fresh characters and more bolder and erotic scenes with evil being the key component in the film. The Bhatts choose to make films with totally new cast instead of big stars. This has once proved to be a successful choice.
Director Mohit Suri, had a great responsibility to take ahead the success of Murder, directed by Anurag Basu. A thumps up to him as he with writer Shagufta Rafique has managed to deliver an efficient and stylish story in Murder 2. The varied use of the characters in the plot is what makes the film interesting. It should be noted that all the characters introduced are either grey or black in nature. The serial killer revelation comes as a real jolt.
The Bhatts have a good record as far as music is concerned. Murder 2 is no exception, 'Haal E Dil' (music by Harshit Saxena) and the track featuring Yana Gupta, 'Aa Zara' (music by Sangeet Haldipur-Siddharth Haldipur) are first-rate compositions. Ravi Walia's cinematography is top notch. Screenplay is fast paced and gives you no time to ponder, giving you a nail biting experience.
Loopholes:
Murder 2 has drawn some inspiration from the Korean film The Chaser (2008), but honestly it is not a blatant rip-off. Writer Shagufta Rafique has added on her colours and style to the story of Murder 2. The story however stagnates towards the beginning of the second hour. The sequence between Emraan and Jacqueline at the former's home, with Jacqueline in a drunken state seems like a forced add-on. One also misses out on the chartbuster 'Bheege Honth Tere' from the first installment of Murder.
Performances:
Both Emraan and Prashant Narayanan are top notch. Emraan plays the role of an angry guy to perfection that his can be called as one of his accomplished roles so far. Prashant is dynamic. Jacqueline being bold and sexy grabs a lot of eyeballs for the oomph factor. Her performance is decent. Sulagna Panigrahi is talented. Sudhanshu Pandey is confident. Sandiip Sikcand is surprising. Shweta Kawatra shines. Yana Gupta sizzles in the opening track
. Over all:
On the whole, Murder 2 is a fine crime story delivered by Bollywood. It lives up to the expectations of the Murder franchise. Infact Murder 2 is more bolder, erotic and has a brilliant story to say. This can be a money spinner for Bhatts!
Saif doesn't let anybody touch Kareena Friday, July 8, 2011, 18:18 [IST]

It was reported that Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor were on the verge of break up. But the fact is, Saif is so protective about his girlfriend, so much so that he doesn't even allow others to touch 'Kareena' (we mean the tattoo in his arm).
Sources said that Saif has to undergo lots of make-up for his role in Aarakshan, as he plays the role of a dalit, but he doesn't allow make-up artistes to touch his 'Kareena' tattoo. It added that the actor covers the tattoo himself before every shoot.
It is also said that Saif takes photo of himself every morning and sends the photo to Kareena through his mobile phone. He apparently starts shooting only after getting approval from her.
Well, the recently romantic trip to Paris seems to have strengthened the tainted relationship of the couple!
Bollywood Movie Chillar Party Review: Friday, July 8, 2011, 11:35 [IST]
Chillar Party may have two big stars branding it, Salman Khan and Ranbir Kapoor, but the film has no stars to carry off the film. Interestingly, the story does it and the kids do the talking. After Kaccha Limboo and Stanley Ka Dabba, Chillar Party again brings the kids on the screen. Eight kids stand up to a mighty politician and their mission is to save a dog that belongs to a child in their group. With wholesome entertainment, Chillar Party advocates a strong message: Children with their honest intentions can bridge the class difference still prevalent in the society.
Impulsiveness, courage and honesty is what one will find in Chillar Party. The way the kids go against the entire world just to fight for the rights of the dog is the working factor in the film. If you are a dog lover, you will simply get involved in the feelings that the children successfully deliver. Chillar Party will knock on your conscience.
It is a story of a gang of innocent and spirited kids who lead a carefree life, full of fun in Chandan Nagar Colony. Fatka and his pet Bheedu come into their lives and become an inseparable part of Chillar Party. The story starts when Bheedu's life is endangered because of a mean politician. How the kids fight for the cause against a mighty opponent is the crux of the story.
Plus Points:
Unlike a few children's films, Chillar Party is not that serious at core, though it handles a very serious issue. The directors Nitesh Tiwari and Vikas Bahl have brilliantly balanced the dramatic and light moments in the film. The film at the same time shows off innocence by having the kids enacting principal and pivotal characters. The directors have handled each moment with great expertise.
Handling the kids and getting out that perfect shot with the perfect expression is definitely a tedious job. The directors have successfully managed to do so. The dialogues written are brilliant as it exactly matches the way the kids speak in real life.
Loopholes:
The sole loop hole in Chillar Party is the placement of Ranbir Kapoor's item song 'Tain tain phish'. It is wrongly placed after the end credits, which is a sheer waste of the song as the viewers will make an exit as soon as the film gets over.
Performance: Every kid in Chillar Party gives a winning performance Naman ]ain, Divij, Sanath, Vedant, Aarav, Chinmay, Sherya, Rohan, Visshesh and Irfan are the real stars of the film. Their performance will make you fall in love with the kids. The supporting actors are equally good, be it the actor playing the role of the parents or the convincing politician.
Over All: On the whole, Chillar Party is not just for kids, but grownups also will enjoy the film equally. A story of great determination presented in an entertaining way is what makes Chillar Party a good watch. Let's fall in love with the way the kids love the dog this weekend.
Murder 2, a copycat of Korean film The Chaser ? Friday, July 8, 2011, 15:17 [IST]

The hype around Murder 2 has been so far so good. Critics too are all in praise for the film. But we learned that it is just a copycat of a Korean film titled, The Chaser, which was released in 2008.
The makers of Murder sequel may argue that it's just a coincidence but the truth is, its plot is similar to that of The Chaser. The Korean film revolves around a person who is into human trafficking. He in turn tries to track down a serial killer. Murder 2 is also about an ex-cop hired by a human trafficker to pin down a serial killer.
As if that's not enough, the poster of Murder 2 is uncannily similar to that of another Korean film titled Bad Guy. The posters of both the films has a girl looking at a photo frame of a guy while another person watches her from behind.
Whether it is a copycat film or not, Murder 2 featuring Emraan Hashmi and Jacqueline Fernandez has hit the theatres. It is directed by Mohit Suri and produced by Mukesh Bhatt.

Just on the heels of the news that a car company is planning to take legal action against Aamir Khan for the derogatory remarks in his home production Delhi Belly, the Madhya Pradesh High Court has issued notice to the actor and three others following a petition demanding a stay on the screening of Delhi Belly.

The court issued the notices yesterday (July 7). Replies to the petition should be filed by July 12.
The petitioner levelled charges against Aamir for the use of obscene and abusive language in his film, which he termed 'against the Indian culture'. The Censor Board also has been pulled to the court for clearing the film for screening.
It was earlier reported that the Hyundai Motors India Limited (HMIL) is planning to level defamation case against Aamir for the derogatory remarks on its car in Delhi Belly.
Salman-Katrina refuse to kiss Friday, July 8, 2011, 16:16 [IST]

Almost all the films today have at least a kissing scene but Yash Raj Films' latest film Ek Tha Tiger won't have one. The reason being, its lead pair Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif refused to kiss on screen. It's not that the ex-lovers have bitter feelings for each other but they are adamant not to kiss.
Salman has always refrained from kissing on screen though his counterparts have done it. He even refused to kiss his ex-girlfriend Katrina though she is very close to him. However, Katrina has acted double-standard because she kissed Hrithik Roshan in Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara and yet refused to do the same to her ex-beau.
Interestingly, Katrina said that she kissed Hrithik in Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara because it's vital to the film. She added that her 'no-kissing' stand remains the same.
Well, today's pretty girls have brains too. They have a reason for everything!
