Mr. Raja,

congratulations for writing a review which wins so many responses. and if this was your intention to get maximum attention, you have done your job brilliantly.

i totally agree to whatever the junta has said in the earlier 79 msgs. however i would like to add that it's really easy to give a dumb and stupid review but what you have done Mr. Raja is something beyond normal human paradigm.

i am going to remember this review of yours for quite some time.

lot of praises for you raja, but now i'll bring out the hard fact. you just cannot ruin a films fortune using just your vocabulary. u need to back it up with intelligence too. you have failed miserably. Hulchul will do well, definitely not going to be counted among hera pheri, hungama, andaz apna apna, etc. but junta will enjoy it to the max. because they deserve a good laugh and hulchul deserves it's share.

best regards,

Mayank

Hulchul is a good entertainer
by siju on Nov 30, 2004 09:09 PM




This is a remake of malayalam hit movie godfather, which ran for more that 1 year in Kerala.
A very good entertainer with decent comic scenes.
I am not understanding the psychology of this reviewer.
Rediff should not allow this reviewer to show up anymore as he underrated the top running film in box-office.
Raja Sen,
Movie review is not a place to show your language skills. please keep away from this profession.

Hulchul Review
by Kaushik Deka on Nov 30, 2004 08:18 PM

It seems that Raja Sen, the reviewer of the movie Hul Chul, is very fond of words and showing off his vocabulary and knowledge. People do not have patience to read through long articles on net. Please be specific and review the movie, do not torture us with long paragraphs, which hardly convey anything. Hul Chul was a loud movie and the review was no less a pain. I guess Sukanya Verma is the best reviewer who could be relied upon. I want to see more reviews from her.

What on earth was that
by Rahul on Nov 30, 2004 05:42 PM

I really do believe the reviewer landed up watching some other movie. OK its no Hera Pheri but the film does have its funny moments and is any day a better watch than Veer Zaara. I think the only thing this review has done is to generate more Hulchul. The movie is good and I would recommend it to any one looking forward to 3 hours of timepass.

The fate of Priyadarsan's films in Hindi
by Paul Sebastian K on Nov 30, 2004 05:29 PM

As rediff confirms in their box office report that Hulchul is hit, let me invite you to the list and fate of Priyadarsan films in Hindi

1. Muskurat - flopped mainly because there was no actor in the main lead (You know who is Jai?)

2. Gardish - Average, Jackie got appreciation. A leading actor would have made a difference

3. Saza E Kalapani - flopped, Mohanlal lead role

4. Virasat - Hit

5. Kabhi Na Kabhi - flopped because of lazy script

6. Sat Rang Ka Sapne - flopped due to length & star cast

7. Doli Sajake Rakhna - (A good film)flopped due competition with China Gate

8. Hera pheri - Hit

9. Yeh Tera Gar, Yeh Mera Ghar - (A good film)wrong release time and lack of publicity. Mahima performs excellent.

10. Hungama - Hit

11. Hulchul - Hit

Did you know, there are films directed by priyadarsan, is still waiting for its release, but no chance of seeing light in near future?

Kashmakash - finished more than half way shooting (Supposed to be a serious movie, Sunil Shetty and Juhi Chaula)
Dubbed version of Snehithaye-(Tamil/Original Marati)(A must watch film)

You can see how a good director like Priyan landed up in comedy.

Paul Sebastian

Review and Ratings in Rediff Contradicting
by AugustineMJ on Nov 30, 2004 02:25 PM

Hi,
Can we have a new review for Hulchul instead of the biased one that is in rediff currently. I dont understand what does the first line of the rediff's ratings page. "Critics slammed Priyadarshan's new film, Hulchul, but the audiences lapped it up" means. Only rediff's reviewer had slammed this film where as in other sites, the reviewers rated this film as excellent. So please rediff, have a review that will back your movie ratings instead of this junk one.... Please..........

Take care
Deyaugu

indeed...its a pain in the neck
by Anu on Nov 30, 2004 02:11 PM

I totally agree with Raja Sen...Hulchal is nowhere compared to the other priyadarshan flicks....what a terrible waste of time n money.....Specially, the climax of the movie......imagine 100 odd persons on a wedding running after a dangling "mangalsutra" and the hero flying on a swing of flowers???? What utter nonsense!!!!!!!!!

HULCHUL : A Painful Watch
by Abhi on Nov 29, 2004 04:19 PM

Sorry guys,I think the reviewer had some pain in his body which forced him to skip most of the scenes and he wrote the reveiw based on the bits and bytes he saw on the screen in between. Any way, we should appreciate the reviewer's dedication even after having such a great pain. After all, What ever is the review he will get paid from Rediff.

Dear Raja, Even if you write 1000 bad reviews against HULCHUL, people will go and watch the film. Because its not your bombastic words which decide the fate of a good film. You can mislead the reader for a day or two.. but not more than that. Guys.. Hulchul is really a good movie.. Its worth the money..Go.. Watch and Have Fun...

Bye
