Bollywood 2010 - The most significant films (part two)

This is the second part the festival "Bollywood films of 2010, the most significant." The prima parte di questa rassegna aveva preso in considerazione i film usciti tra gennaio e aprile, questo articolo prende in esame i film usciti tra maggio e agosto 2010.

A maggio 2010 tutti aspettavano l'uscita del nuovo film di Hrithik Roshan , " Kites " (Acquiloni). Diretto dal regista Anurag Basu , conosciuto per due film innovativi e di grande successo ( Murder e Life in a metro ), il film aveva un'attrice messicana, Barbara Mori con Hrithik, ed era stato pensato come il film che presenta Hrithik Roshan al mondo di Hollywood. Un film romantico ma noioso, è stato tra i più grandi disastri commerciali del 2010, ed è was harshly criticized. All agreed that Hrithik is very beautiful in this film, but the screenplay of the film was a disaster. I tried to watch it but after 30 minutes, I too have lost patience!

was also released in May Badmash Company (Bad Company), by Parmeet Sethi with actors Shahid Kapoor and Anushka Sharma. The film was about a bunch of guys who want to get rich, and bring you into the world of gambling. Instead, after they become honest for the company to save the father of one of them. The film has not been a great success but was welcomed by young people. However, I did not have the opportunity to watch it, so I could not talk much about this film.

June was the month of two big movies - and Rajneeti Ravaan.

Rajneeti (Politics) director Prakash Jha was a film with a long list of stars from Bollywood (Ajay Devgan , Ranbeer Kapoor, Katrina Kaif , Arjun Rampal , Manoj Bajpai Patek and Nana) and was a modern interpretation of the ancient story of the Mahabharata, set in the world of the struggle between two branches of a family for political power.

Some parts of this movie, I did thinking vaguely Godfather saga. The film has a continuous history with sudden twists and violence, which gives little time to think, and was appreciated by critics and audiences. Rajneeti was one of the biggest commercial success of Bollywood in 2010.

Rajneeti is not your typical romantic Bollywood masala films and perhaps, people who do not know the social reality of the Indian state of Bihar will struggle to understand its nuances. Nevertheless, the film deserves to be seen. The part played by Katrina Kaif towards the end of the film, a young widow who decides to enter politics, seems inspired by the figure of Sonia Gandhi .

Raavan (Raavan was the king in the history of bad Ramayana, the sacred book of Hindus) is the new film by Mani Ratnam with actors Abhishekh Bacchan, Aishwarya Rai , Suriya Vikram and Govinda. The film had an old story, already seen many times with a poor boy to avenge the death of his sister, kidnapped his wife's bad cop.

The film was innovative for the treatment of the two main protagonists - the tips, creating a certain uneasiness in the viewer - has the poor guy as the villain and the police as the good and plays with prejudices against the urban and rural people, poor, badly dressed, and without manners. So the film confounds our sense of right and wrong. For most of the films, the poor boy is presented as the bad guy, though poor, cruel and a bit 'crazy mad, while the policeman is presented as a civilized person, well educated and good. Despite appearances, it is the poor the most noble and loyal.

I found very provocative film, a film that forces us to rethink our prejudices, because we do not judge people by what they do, but how they present themselves and what we look like. However, most critics and the general public in India, did not like the film, which was among the commercial disaster of 2010. The criticism of the interpretation of Abhishekh Bacchan were particularly ferocious, but personally I liked his performance.

From this film, one of the songs presented here, "de killies Thok" (the nail) which speaks of the rebellion of the downtrodden against the powerful, but at the same time, dance has the poor people as devils, people unstable and cruel, up to confound our ideas about right and wrong.


Ravaan was presented at the festival Venice Film Festival in 2010. Luisa Ceretto had written this film :
Author of the most prestigious of Kollywood, the Tamil Bollywood, Mani Ratnam is engaged with a text that draws on the ancient epic poem by Valmiki , Ramayana, one of the cornerstones of Indian culture and literature. Presented in two versions, Tamil, Raavanan, Hindi, Raavan, the film combines very well right from the start the need for entertainment to art films. The musical numbers are extraordinary efficiency and elegance are never mere pretext spectacular, but inherently functional to the story. In telling the story and adapt to the valuable work (which tells the story of Rama and his wife, Sita, who is kidnapped by Ravana, king of the Demons), the Tamil film moves the action to the present day in a natural setting, a true co-protagonist of the narrative. A landscape taken in all its glory, where majestic scenery with lakes, thick forests and gorges are continuing at a rapid and suspension bridges, forcing the protagonists to proceed cautiously, profoundly changing the perception and certainty. If Veera Dev is Good and Evil in the film there is however no representation and Manichaean battle that takes place is the interior, with themselves, with their own fears, in an ongoing dialogue with the point of view and perspective opponent, the enemy - that is happens, in fact, the female lead - in the chance, to quote the words of the director, there could be a Raavan, a dark side, within each of us ...
July 2010 had four major films - I hate love stories, Udaan, Tere Bin Laden and Once Upon A Time In Mumbai. In addition there were two disappointing films, but with major Bollywood star - Milenge Milenge and Khatt Meetha.

I hate love stories (I hate romance) with the young actors Imran Khan and Sonam Kapoor , director Puneet Malhotra , was a romantic comedy, a bit 'bland. The film is about the romance between two "friends" - she is the costume designer in the world Bollywood Shahrukh Khan and his dreams while he is the assistant director and who does not believe in love.

together to shoot a film in New Zealand, of course, the two find love. In between is the usual misunderstanding that the two away for a while ', followed by the usual happy ending. The film's story was very predictable.

Both actors are sons of art - Imran is the grandson of the famous Aamir Khan, while Sonam is Anil Kapoor's daughter , known in Italy for films such as The Millionnaire of Danny Boyle and television series like "24 hours". Both actors are beautiful and they know act decently. The music of the film was not bad. So a movie with no great pretensions, but above all a pleasant pastime, has found enough viewers to become a commercial success.

Udaan (The flight) was the real surprise of 2010. The first film by a new young director ( Vikramaditya Motwani ) student Anurag Kashyap with new or little-known actors ( Rajat Marmecha , Ronit Roy), was far from the canons of the Bollywood film, with a strong history of troubled relations between a teenager who dreams of freedom and an authoritarian father and violent. The film has charmed audiences and critics.

Rajat Barmecha in his first film, playing the young Rohan and Ronit Roy (an actor who worked mostly in the Indian TV series) as the father, were wonderful. The child actor, aayana borad, playing the brother Arjun, was very natural.

Udaan, presented at the festival Caanes in May 2010, will surely be nominated for several awards, both as the best film of the year as best actor. If you find a movie intense and strong, inspiring message of hope, do not miss Udaan.

Tere Bin Laden ("Without you Laden" or "Your Bin Laden") was another unusual little film of 2010 has found that appreciation by audiences and critics. Written and directed by another young director struggling with his first film, Abhishekh Sharma, the film is set in Pakistan and its main character, is a Pakistani rock singer, Ali Zafar , in his first appearance in the world film.

Tere Bin Laden - Bollywood 2010 Film più significativi

In the film, Ali is a television journalist who dreams of immigrating to America, but can not receive a U.S. visa because he is perceived as a possible Islamic terrorist. While they're running a feature on the struggles of chickens, a very popular sport among men in rural Pakistan, accidentally sees a farmer who is obsessed with chickens and who looks like Bin Laden. So Ali devises a plan to record a message of threat to the United States, so be famous and be able to get the visa.

The film is an Indian film director, but is set in Pakistan and traveled with the Pakistani player, so it has sparked some controversy and is not released in Pakistan. It 's a comedy irreverent and ironic to the Islamic culture of Pakistan and to American culture.

Ali Jafar has been appreciated as an actor and has already received offers from other Bollywood films. The new actor, Pradhuman Singh in the role of Noora, a farmer who loves the chickens to the madness and dreams of becoming the champion of the struggle of the Gauls and the most important merchant who sells eggs, has found much appreciation and has received several offers to continue to play as Osama Bin Laden.

I think by now everyone has an idea of \u200b\u200bthe Muslim people who dress in the traditional way - is said to resemble the Taliban, are all perceived as potential terrorists and give rise to some unease in the West. The film helps to see them as real people, maybe sometimes a bit of 'closed, maybe a bit' sexist and retrograde, but of people and not monsters. Only this fact, this film deserves to be seen.

Once upon a time in Mumbai (Once Upon a Time in Bombay), by Milan Lutharia was set Bombay in the early seventies and tells the story of the mafia leader Sultan Mirza ( Ajay Devgan), his romance with actress Rehana ( Kangana Ranaut ) and its relationship with the young Shoaib (Emraan Hashmi) who one day will replace it.

The film based on the real character of Haji Mastan and Dawood Ibrahim, two gangsters in Mumbai, has been praised for its careful reconstruction of a bygone era, for their excellent performances and music. Surely this film will be among those who win the awards of Bollywood in 2010.

Milenge Milenge (meeting) director Satish Kaushik had a great couple , Kareena Kapoor and Shahid Kapoor , known in Italy for Love arrives by train (Jab We Met). Milenge Milenge, is inspired by the Hollywood movie, Serendipity (When love is magic), but the main problem was that this film has 4-5 years to complete and was perceived as a dated and old movies. In addition, the film lacked the romantic magic of "Jab We Met".

Khatt Meetha (Bitter Sweet) by director Priyadarshan had Akshay Kumar with a new actress Trisha. The film is about corruption has infiltrated everyday life in India, and with whom to be reckoned with even the most trivial things. It is said that the film suffered because it was perceived as a play while he was a serious film. But it was rejected by audiences and critics.

Khatta Meetha - Bollywood 2010 Film più significativi

The month of August had several major motion pictures - Aisha, Peeplo Live Lafangey Parindey, Aashayein and We Are Family.

Aisha new director of Rajshri Ojha with his first film, was based on the novel of Emma Jane Austen and had Sonam Kapoor with Abhay Deol . Set during the company in Delhi, the film was about the young Aisha, his rich friends and their romantic confusion. Billed as the first "chick-flick" (film for boyfriend) of Bollywood, the film was a parade of pretty faces, beautiful clothing and great brands, without much substance.

Part romantic, between Aisha (Sonam) and Arjun (Abhay) was not very convincing, despite the beauty of the natural sympathy and Sonam Abhay Deol.

One of the songs from the film, "Gal Mithi Mithi bol" (Tell me sweet sweet words) has become very popular and felt in all Indian marriages of last season!


Peeplo Live (Live from Peeplo) is a small movie neoregista Anushka Rizvi, produced by Aamir Khan , with virtually unknown actors and set in a small village. The film touches on the theme of suicide of the poor and indebted farmers of the sensationalism of the news by television audience looking for. The film tackles a serious subject in the mood lighter, more like a comedy that ultimately leaves a bitter taste in the mouth and makes you think.

Peepli Live - Bollywood 2010 Film più significativi

After Udaan and Tere Bin Laden , Peeplo Live was the third film piccolo del 2010, diretto da un nuovo regista senza le grandi stelle di Bollywood, a trovare il grande successo di critici e di pubblico. In questo senso penso che possiamo dire che per il Bollywood il 2010 era l'anno di nuovi registi e piccoli film.

Gli altri tre film di agosto 2010, non hanno avuto molto successo.

Lafangey Parindey (Ragazzi perditempo) del regista Pradeep Sarkar , parlava del pentimento di Nandu ( Neil Nitin Mukesh ) un giovane boxer che fa anche il malvivente nel tempo libero, per aver investito e reso cieca Pinky ( Deepika Padukone ), una ragazza che sognava di partecipare ad un concorso di pattinaggio. Nandu decide di aiutare Pinky a realizzare his dream, despite his blindness, and in the process they fall in love so Pinky discovers the truth that Nandu is in charge of his accident.

The film was not bad though Neil is not very appropriate for the role of boxer shorts from a crude barraccopoli.

Aashayein (Hope) by director Nagesh Kuknoor had John Abraham, but it was an abstract film and confused about the last months of life of a young man named Rahul, when he learns she has lung cancer and moves to a center where he meets other people waiting to die.

We are family (Siamo una famiglia) del regista Sidharth Malhotra , prodotto da Karan Johar , aveva 3 attori/stelle importanti di Bollywood - Kajol , Kareena Kapoor e Arjun Rampal ed era tra i film più attesi del 2010.

We are family - Bollywood 2010 Film più significativi

Basato sul film americano Stepmom (con Susan Sarandon e Julia Roberts ), il film "We Are Family"era ambientato in Australia, ma non ha avuto molto successo, forse perché sembrava un film occidentale. Nelle famiglie allargate indiane con l'omnipresenza dei parenti vicini e lontani nella vita quotidiana, l'idea di una donna che cerca una nuova madre per i figli when she discovered she had cancer not to leave them alone, was a bit 'strange.

And so ends the second part of this analysis the most important films of 2010. In the next (last) installment of this festival will also include films released in the last four months of 2010.
