Action Replayy will do well.

Action Replayy will do well.

Director Vipul Shah had experimented with an abstract subject in the film Action Replayy. But fortunately for him the screen presence and individual performance of Aishwarya Rai and Akshay Kumar will make the film successful. His casting had been very meaningful.

In the film Aditya Roy Kapoor believed that if his parents’ marriage had been a love marriage, instead of arranged marriage then, his life would have been different. From his experience he could see that Akshay Kumar always had differences with Aishwarya Rai.

For those reasons he always ran away and avoided his girl friend Sudeepa Singh. He was asked by Sudeepa about his views on marriage. He developed a kind of apathy towards marriage. Just because his parents did not have cordial relationship, he thought that the root of major problems on earth includes marriage.

Sudeepa Singh’s grandfather Randhir Kapoor gave an ultimatum to Aditya Roy Kapoor. He told him that he failed to take a decision on marriage, he should forget his daughter. He stole his professor’s Time Machine to go the 1970s.

He continued turn time in the opposite direction. He wanted to convert his parent’s arranged marriage to love marriage. The entire film hovers around the theme in understanding the difficulty in doing so.

The music of Pritam had been impressive with hit songs like “baaki mai bhool gayi” sung by Shreya Ghoshal, “o bekhabar” sung by Shreya Ghoshal, “zor ka jhatka” sung by Daler Mehendi and Richa Sharma, “luk chup jaana” by Tulsi Kumar and KK.

The performance of Neha Dhupia, Om Puri and Aditya Roy Kapoor in the film had been brilliant. Akshay Kumar had been energetic and lively as ever. Aishwarya Rai had just gained beauty with attainment of age. She is looking even more gorgeous in her late 30s. The film should do well.

All the songs in the film became super hit including “ishq bina kya jina”, “rabba jogi”, etc. Ash in that period was at the top of her career.

She also did well opposite Anil Kapoor in the film Hamara Dil Aapke Paas Hai. In that film she was raped by Puru Raj Kumar and was given shelter by Anil Kapoor.

Can Sushmita Sen regain her stardom?

Can Sushmita Sen regain her stardom?

Sushmita Sen was considered as one of the most glamourous actresses of bollywood films in the 90s along with Aishwarya Rai. As both of them got international recognition with their success in the fashion industry producers and directors used their glamour in films made during the contemporary period. But with increase of age and domination of new actresses like Katrina Kaif, Priyanka Chopra, Lara Dutta, Kareena Kapoor, the charm that was created by Sushmita Sen is fading away gradually.

In Bibi No. 1, her stylish performance opposite Salman Khan contributed for the success of the film. She proved herself to be a successful girlfriend but failed to fulfil any of the responsibilities of a wife. Salman Khan returned back to his wife Karishma Kapoor after realizing about the incapability of Sushmita Sen. Although apparently Sushmita’s role appeared to be negative but her presentation of the character with the stylish andaz attracted the film audience. The lips in the songs “ishq sona hai” and “chunari chunari”, was very impressive.

In the film Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya, she almost superseded Katrina Kaif, in her role opposite Salman Khan. Where the viewers saw that Salman Khan was inclined to marry Katrina, who was a model in the film at the cost of Sushmita Sen, who was his personal secretary, at the end of the film the sacrifices of Sushmita Sen brought her the maximum sympathy from the audience. Her lips in the song “laga laga laga re” were very impressive. The striking factor in the film was that all her emotions were expressed through comedy sequences.

Sushmita Sen was also impressive in the film Tumko Na Bhool Payenge opposite Salman Khan. Although she was associated with Salman Khan only in one part of the film while the major portion was there with Diya Mirza, her performance was probably more aggressive than Diya Mirza. Her lips in the song “are re re yeh kya hua re” were very impressive. She was sublime in the film Zor opposite Sunny Deol and Mai Hoon Na opposite Shahrukh Khan.

Sushmita Sen is also known for her bold performances in the industry. She accepted the role in the film Chingari, which many actresses of her age would not have accepted. She also was sublime inn Sunil Shetty’s film Aghaaz.

Sushmita has a long way to go. Viewers are very anxious to see her performance in the role of Benazir Bhutto, the film which is facing hurdles relating to production. The biggest challenge is in respect of bringing her lost stardom which she enjoyed back in the 90s.
