Final Verdict: Mayawati statue is more entertaining than Hadippa
by exoticbronze on Sep 20, 2009 07:13 AM

Guys, This movie is a big let down! Very predictable, and other than flashes of believable acting by Rani here and there, most actors fail to deliver. The big difference between a fantastic movie and an ordinary movie is that a fantastic movie hijacks your mind, and holds you in such a thrall, that you forget you are in a theater looking at images on a screen....we are transported into that magical world of vivid imagery that the director has crafted with great wizardry. And when the movie ends, it tugs at our heartstrings, as we swiftly return to the real world and realize that we have head home.

Though 'Hadippa' ravages our mind with a mixed dose of bright colors, loud music, and feisty dancing, it fails to transport us to a different world....you grow increasingly aware that you are sitting in this theater patiently waiting for the movie to take off...but like passengers on a delayed flight sitting on the tarmac we sit fidgeting on our seats, hoping to get airborne, and be amidst the clouds, bedazzled by the lovely experience those promos and trailers had promised...but we are kept waiting. Minutes become hours, but hope doesnt translate to reality...even Rani's burst of intense and passionate dialogue delivery towards the very end fails to take us to the promised dreamland. And with the rest of a disappointed crowd, we shuffle out of the theater, silently avoiding glances of fellow movie goers heading back home...

Bollywood - 0% Talent , 100 % Hype

Why is our Bollywood 'Global Icon' phillums not getting National Award for best phillum.

Why is south indian cinema taking top honors. Last year Malayalam film 'Pulijanmam' took best film award. This year 'Kanjeevaram' got best film award.

Why is this discrimination against 'Global Icon' Bollywood. When the entire WORLD respects Bollywood's icons why National awards are not given to Bollywood movies.

Just see how Bolly icons are mobbed in US and Europe by goras and goris asking for autograph, photograph, videograph. Did you forget how the US immigration officers mobbed our Super Icon SRK for his autograph... Poor guy was so tired of giving autographs and posing for pikchurs that goris were taking, he couldnt get out of the aiport for 2 hours! What global recogniation of world icons.

And then National awards go to these south Indian people. Do you think any south Indian actor has such 'Global icon' status like Bollywood stars. Do you think goras and goris will tear their clothes and mob south indian stars like the goras mob SRK salman SanjayDutt and party?

After 'Shakeela era' in malayalam soft porn industry, a new set of actresses Reshma, Sindhu, Sharmilee, Devi and the likes are creating more sensational hits in rural and semi-urban Kerala. The soft porn film producers of Kerala has been released more than 14 films in a month with these actreses. Many of the films performed by all these 4 actresses together. These new series of Malayalam sex movies transported to UK, USA and Gulf countries for release is making sensational effects in international markets. According to Mr.Sunil, one of the regular buyer of these films and exporting to overseas, these movies selling like hot cakes after being dubbed in English. Sundarikutty is such a movie. It was created in India a year ago. Recently, it got a face lift from UK and was packaged with other similar movies. Aalila Thoni starred by Shakeela is another big hit in USA.

But unfortunately she is paying the price of not working outside yasharaj camp.

Her film with a ridiculous storyline DBH is going to be a major flop !
