I frankly think Abishek Bachchan should quit movies. He doesn't have the flair to stick around. But going with Bollywood history, people with mediocre abilities surviving and more surprisingly, bagging National Awards/ FilmFare. Hard Luck Abishek.... who knows you might be the next year FilmFare/ National Award winner but certainly not Academy award winner.
I wonder what prompted change in policy of movie review on rediff? Was it that the reviews were much criticized by readers? But at same time, they were much honest review - how harsh it may be. Those written by Sukanya Verma or Deepa Gahlot. To start, it was quite obvious that review of "Koi Mil Gaya" was a paid one. The movie is declared superhit on rediff, only after two weeks. Come on - do you think readers are dumb?
Then came review of Tere Naam. First there was quite negative review. But due to opposition from readers, the review was changed in few hours.
Now for "Bambai se aaya mera dost" - there is quite new critic. and his language is quite mild.
What do we see next? All movies getting four stars? Come on rediff - grow up - rather than running after money

KMG is declared first SuperHit of 2003 for your kind information. A film's fate does not depend on its reviews, but on its merit. KMG is a SUPERB film, highly acclaimed by the viewers, and thatswhy it is creating history at the box office.

Please check out next year who gets the award for the Best Actor of 2003 in all the popular awards. I can say u the answer just now. Its Hrithik Roshan.
Often I am lead to question whether the reviewer has the pre-requisite quality of unbiasedness before reviewing a movie. MSAMD seems another case in point. I have not seen the movie, but I am sure if Darna Mana Hai can receive praises from this same website reviewer for 'atleast trying to be original' there is no reason why MSAMD is being panned by the same reviewer because this criteria is satisfied by Lakhia's movie also. As far as AB jr. is concerned, isn't is paradoxical that reviewers universally pan him for copying his father and then promptly go on and compare him with the unquestionable talentsof his parents. Give him a break, people.
i think both of you must get reward from bollwood for critising good movies. infact must be board on rediff that reading your reviews one will be mad forever & will have heart failure. as non of your reviews has any sens.joking
but boss its really good movie...just c & u know...better then KMG, where only acting is good & not story
RE:abhishek can act

Mr. Raj please remember to check the 3rd week collections of KMG and the 1st week collections of MSAMD next week. You would certainly be amazed to find that KMG tops by a ggod margin.
i request you sir to stop giving previews. you must start preview about most Star Plus serials. which are like your review ...totally useless. its really nice movie with nice directin, subject & superb acting. let people in city know about rural india from this kind of movie indtead of knowing your baseless review.i hope you understand what we say.
I guess Abhishek is one of the most promising actors today we have..We shud admire the kind of films he is doing...like shararat,refugee,Tera Jaddoo...etc.. Here is one man who does not depend on his family influences for his own success....

...and give numerous flops. That completes your sentence. He will only stay cuz his father is Big B. Otherwise he would have joined any other job by now.
Abhishek should get it once and for all into his head that he is a very mediocre actor. Even if he does tons of movies, he can never be a star, leave alone a superstar. It will be better if he quits movies and takes up some other profession ASAP.
mR. jHa what ve u done, u sinplt do not know how 2 review a film. firstly u don't need 2 compare this movie with lagaan just bcoz lakhiya was asst director of lagaan or some of the performer in the movie are same. As far as Abhishek is concerned, he is a superb actor & that too non pareil and comes out with an outstanding and superlative performance and one can not help raving about it. Apurvas Lakhiya has done a commendable job and rest of the cast has also done well. I simply cannot undestand the critics why they all r hell bent on flaying an intelligent, gifted and redoubtable actor of Abhishek's calibre and always draw comparison with his legendary & illustrious father. What's so strange if he resembles his father? aren't we all somehow like our parents.People like jHa don't seem 2 understand this and just try being a gr8 critic, even when they r not one, by eliciting flaws in a movie which dares to be different and original and not plagiarised like koi...miiill gaya. jHa jaise critic bhi mil jatein hain.

Aur aap jaise viewer bhi mil jaate hain. If u even try to compare MSAMD with KMG, you are not fit. MSAMD is not even 5% of KMG.

For your king information Mr Jha is not the reviewer of MSAMD. Probably you would have already prepared your reply even before MSAMD was released, thinking that Mr Jha is going to review it cuz he had given the review of KMG. Anyway I would request people like you to watch all the popular awards next year, and check out which actor gets those awards for his effort. I can give you his name now itself, Hrithik Roshan for KMG. Check out nexy year if i am wrong.

Why are you comparing a non performer with a superb actor. It seems that you are jealous that Hritik has walked away with a grand performance in KMG. You may be a great fan of Abhishek, that does not mean you will take away all the credit of Hritik. On the contrary AB should quit movies immediately.

by SnajOO on Aug 23, 2003 03:58 PM
"AB is a superb actor" Good Joke. Keep it up and entertain us please with youre jokes. AB has not given even 1% of Hrithik's performance in KMG.
