Hi Manish,
Had got very busy with work and never saw your reply. Thank you very much for bothering to reply and thanks a ton for your suggestion as well. Have modified my profile so that it’s no longer displaying my pseudonym (which I had taken not for frivolous reasons but because I felt more comfortable remaining anonymous on the web!) and have included my pic.
Thanks again for your suggestions.

kic- well hmm V.M.Basheer- i.e Vaikom Muhammed Basheer is one of the most respected literary figures in Kerala.If you need to check him out cinematically- watch Adoor Gopalakrishnan’s Mathilukal based on V.M.Basheer’s novel of the same name.Mammootty is brilliant in it.

Comment on Kurbaan Movie Review : Kuch kuch terrorism hai? by Prasun Banerjee

Prasun Banerjee — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 00:49:09 PST

Read this review before i watched the film. while reading the review itself , did get the feeling that it was a knee jerk reaction to the film. And actually went into the theatre confident that Kurbaan would be a decent movie. As i walked out , i realised that the movie is pathetic … in fact in the theatre itself had gotten that feeling. But i still do not agree with KM’s review. the movie is not bad because it shows muslims in a certain manner … the movie is pathetic because the story is weak … the story has holes beyond belief … And then i read Ms Padmaja s review which had it spot on. She too has ripped apart the movie but with the right kind of logic … she has critiqued the movie rather than the religious affiliations of the characters as KM has done. With all due respect to OZ and the comment policy , is there a code of conduct for the bloggers ? or can KM write anything and get away with it. This review is as rabid as some of the comments it has got. And to say that Khuda kay liye was an achievement in film making is to insult the viewers. KKL had outstanding music , very very promising story , unbelievably bad acting , technically worse than nfdc films of the 70s. and to top it all KM has a filmography which starts with Fiza which i liked as a film but also has cinematic liberties of the extreme kind.

Pardon my ignorance. I dont know V. M. Basheer but if he is half as good as Sree’ettan, maybe I should make an effort.

Jyoti,
I think its juvenile/facile/ tearr-your-hair-out-ile to expect the semblance of truth about the changing image of the modern indian woman from hindi cinema.Indian cinema-maybe, yes. Hindi cinema-no.
If any of the directors and so-called-writers who’re responsible for the multitude of films that are churned out every week were to read this artice and then the comments that follow-they’d die laughing. We really are expecting too much from them.Of all the parameters that go into the process of film-production, the concerns of this blog must regularly rank the last.

To me, This man can be coined as the “V.M.Basheer” of Malayalam Cinema. His films are raw, straight to the point and extremely thought provoking with an underlined humour in it. You can see it umpteen times ans still not get bored by them! (again like basheer’s novels)
