We need more directors like Mr. Kamat and he deserves all the credit for crafting this movie. I was moved by dombivli fast and expected more from this director. He is fulfilling my wish and I hope him lots of success in his future endeavors.

Yes Rediff only take pain to review only SRK movie or yash raj movie.
they always lost to comment on background score, script, screenplay, which are equally important to grip the audience. Todays it is more important for a film not to loose grip on audiance. AAMIR is also an example of good movie, which crictics says average and audiance like so much.
I think that good comment of audiance should be added in preview under the heading of "Audiance Comment". The review will be more precise and readers will get proper information about the movie.
MUMBAI MERI JAAN IS GOOD MOVIE AND A MUST WATCH.

Definitely to be watched

Even if I have not seen the movie, from the name of the director and star cast and if one has watched Dombivali Fast, one can expect a movie better than the normal masala movies for the subject. Even if it is not as expected keeping the subject in mind, if the directors approach is honest, we should patronage such movies when audience can spend money on normal masala movies.

A Review of Nithya's Review

Dear Nithya,

I just walked out of the first show of Mumbai Meri Jaan and got to work to read your review on it. The first thing I did was rub my hands in anticipation to write a rebuke to your review.

All you have done in the review is the following -
1. Write the complete outline of the story of the film
2. Describe each character in detail
3. Say 2 lines in the whole review which would actually count as a 'review' rather than just an account of what you saw in the film
4. Then give the film 2.5 stars!

I would like to bring to your notice some issues here. I do not wish to challenge your abilities to understand a film as a medium and then write a review on it. I do not know your professional background to comment on any of the above. If you have been hired for this job, I am sure you must have something to show for it.

However, I am greatly dissapointed by your take on the film for several reasons. 90% of the words from the total word count of the review have gone towards narrating what happens in the film rather than actually telling us what you think of it. the latter is just 3 lines! When you say that the film is documentary-like, I would liek to say here that may be you didnt see the film! Have you actually seen it or someone just told you about it and you wrote on it. According to me, this was in no way a documentary type film. It dealt with some delicate issues very sensitively and went on to culminate the film superbly. In each of the characters, I
