Bollywood Movie Trailers: A Magical Experience

By PreetiJ
Celebrating its Centennial year, 2013 has been a good year for the Indian movie industry especially Bollywood. Some of the recent releases and upcoming movies have managed to create a buzz among the audiences and even the critics. 

India is a nation where be it the TV series or the upcoming Bollywood movie trailers, all are adored and loved equally. Movies are nothing less than a magic show unfolding on the 70 mm screen. With the sophistication in technology, with each passing day people are aware about every aspect of movie - on-screen and behind-the-scenes. But a pleasant change that Indian upcoming movies have undergone is the shift in the story and narration style from a mere entertainment aspect to a more realistic one. Several present day Bollywood movie trailers reflect various aspects of human lives and society. 

Though there is still that strong current of entertainment based movies churning out every year from all the film industries in India, some really exceptional movies like The Lunchbox, Ship of Theseus, Lucia (Kannada) etc., set on a journey to draw closer to reality and have made its way into the hearts of the Indian audiences. Even gaining critical recognition. One can witness the slow drift in the mind set and thinking pattern of people, who once loved only romance-action filled movies. Today the reception for realistic movies like Bhaag Milka Bhaag, Madras Cafe is much more compared to upcoming movies like Grand Masti or Dhoom 3. 

The present trend of upcoming Bollywood movie trailers gives the idea that the era of 90s movies is gone long ago where movies were mere "comprehensive entertainment package" having something to offer for every section of the society. Today, filmmakers have started making films which are closer to matter of fact rather than pertaining to the notion of "wholesome entertainment".

Be it the director or the actor, movies needed a change. So did the audience! Traditional clichés ideas are mocked and conventions are broken in every aspect related to the movie including music, sound, cinematography, editing or art direction or even the narration style. Directors have started exploring in every direction to bring forth contemporary ideas to the audiences. For instance, Prakash Jha's 2013 movie Satyagraha portrayed the present day corruption scenario in a modern context with all the popular aspects of entertainment. It was well received commercially and critically. Such movies are a totally new avatar, reminding of 1970's & 80's concept of New Wave or Parallel movies in India.

Indian movie business earned the 'industry' status with the evolution of aesthetic element in Bollywood movie trailers. Regardless of any changes upcoming movies have undergone - technical or aesthetic, the magical 'aura of the stars' remain unchanged.

About the Author

Upcoming movies is audio-visual magical experience on the silver screen. With the perfect combination of the favorite superstars, colorful visuals, stylized story narration, impacting sound effects, Bollywood movie trailers are definitely no less than a magical experience that one must enjoy.

Movie Review - Besharam (2013)

Besharam (2013)

Director:

 Abhinav Kashyap

Writers:

 Rajeev Barnwal, Abhinav Kashyap

Stars:

 Ranbir Kapoor, Pallavi Sharda, Rishi Kapoor, Neetu Singh

Genre: Comedy

Duration: 2 hours 18 minutes

★½☆☆☆☆

Besharam as the name says, this movie is totally bakwass " nonsense",  useless, not worth watching, this is one of the worse movie I have ever seen, you must be thinking why i am saying these kind of harsh words, So that, you can save your valuable time and money and spend it with your family or friends. The movie lack plot, proper direction and I don't know what was Ranbir thinking when he said yes for this movie and I never thought Abhinav Kashyap the Dabang boy can deliver such a waste of time.This film has such a great star cast but all got wasted due to absence of story and direction. 

I thought to give some highlight on story but i am sorry to say i can't because there is no story or in short its a story of Babli who steals cars nothing else. I would recommend you guys please don't waste time on this movie, you can rather donate that amount in charity.

Director:

 James Wan

Writers:

 Chad Hayes, Carey Hayes

Stars:

 Patrick Wilson, Vera Farmiga, Ron Livingston

Genre: Horror

Duration: 1 hour 53 minutes 

★★★★☆

The Conjuring is a true story of  Ed and Lorraine Warren there story revolves around a paranormal investigation which eventually turns to be the most difficult case of there life, the movie is well set the first half tells a story but the second half shows terror, this movie has all elements of an horror film a happy family a country farm which becomes notorious at nights.

The film is genuinely very terrifying Exorcism film with its natural spin and twist, the actors have given there best which made this movie even more interesting, I would recommend you all to watch this movie but be careful with your kids don't let them watch this movie because it can effect them psychologically.

Movie Review - Jobs

Jobs

Director:

 Joshua Michael Stern

Writer:

 Matt Whiteley

Stars:

 Ashton Kutcher, Dermot Mulroney, Josh Gad

★

★★☆☆

Jobs one of the best innovators of our time, Great thinker, a role model for many of us and an achiever. He was a person who can think when many can't but unfortunately this movie didn't gave Steve Jobs a tribute rather it made his life confusing for many of us to understand. Although the movie was a biopic but it seems a lot like fiction and also it didn't showed his full life and struggle.

I recommend you to take this movie as a short story of legendary Steve Jobs with a short biopic with many loopholes, the only thing I enjoyed in this movie was his getup which I personally felt a bit funny.

I would suggest you to watch this movie if you have ample of time if not watch something else or go out in a date or have party with your friends or family.

Movie Review - Despicable Me 2

 Despicable Me 2

Directors:

 Pierre Coffin, Chris Renaud

Writers:

 Ken Daurio (screenplay), Cinco Paul (screenplay)

Stars:

 Steve Carell, Kristen Wiig, Benjamin Bratt

★

★★½☆☆

Who can forget Despicable Me (2010) what a movie it was, I really enjoyed it so i thought to approach for part 2 and I was not disappointed because our Gru (main lead) never grew but got a bit mature and over protected towards his daughter which we all do.

Now coming on to the plot, It was nice calm and humorous I really enjoyed the Father and Daughter relationship it was awesome and easy going but the story never kept me interesting on plot maybe kids got delighted by their Mr. Gru but I liked the part of Lucy, overall I would say a movies you can watch with you kids to laugh and have some fun
