Raja (Jr Ntr) and his side kick (Ali) are petty thieves who rob for their living. Mamtha Mohan Das is a broker who gives them money for interest to perform their robberies. During one of the robbery mishaps, Raja scolds Yamadharmaraja (Mohan Babu) from Earth which is heard by Yama himself. Yama wants to take revenge and gets Raja killed in a kidnap dealing. Raja meets Priyamani during a robbery and falls in love with her before his death. Raja reaches Yamalokam after his death and comes to know about Yama’s tricks. What mischief Raja does there and how he comes back to Bhoolokam to save Priyamani from the clutches of villans and also how he wins her love forms the remaining part of the story.

Jr Ntr as an young and smart thief has proved his talent once more with this movie. He gave a new on-screen look by slimming down around 30 kgs and he looks simply superb. He gave a new definition to dance with his steps and style. Whoever may be the choreographer, it is because of Jr Ntr’s grace and ease, the steps are good. Ntr showed that he can do not only action movies but he can also do full length comedy flicks.

Mohan Babu is an added asset for the movie. His performance dominated even Ntr at few situations in the movie. His strong performance as a negative character highlighted the hero’s role and performance. He is the perfect choice for this role.

Priyamani is cute as the rich servant maid and Mamtha Mohan Das is good as the money broker. Though this movie is Mamtha’s first movie in telugu, she did a very good job both in acting as well as dubbing. Her performance as Yamadharmaraja is real good and impressive.

Ali, Brahmanandam, M.S.Narayana and other actors were adequate and good for their roles.

Art work by Anand Sai is far beyond excellence. Yamalokam set is deadly and shows the real talent of art director. Even the locations and indoor settings for the songs are also good. Panner Selvam’s first action sequence is the highlight of the movie. It showed Ntr’s vigour and speed after slimming down. Special effects by EFX Labs are a visual treat to the audience.

Dynamic director Rajamouli has put forward a movie which is completely different from his previous movies. It is a fantasy movie combined with comedy. The movie has the trademark symbol of Rajamouli in every aspect. He showed the other side of Ntr with this comedy flick. He proved that he is one of the most talented and rare directors of Tollywood.t will be surely a hat-rick success for both Ntr and Rajamouli.

High Lights : Nandamuri Taraka Ramarao Graphic role in 7th reel, Soundarya in Graphic role in swargam for short span, Yamalok Set which has surpassed the expectation of the audiences by many folds. The quality can be compared to any Hollywood film.

Special Apperances: Veda, Navneet Kour, Preethi Jingyani, Madhu Shalini,Parvathi Melton as Dancers in Narakam and Rambha in Item song(Nachore..Nachore..)

'Chak De India', is a sports based film which has all the elements that make it extremely watchable. The premise of the film, a plot revolving around the Indian women's hockey team, had received a lot of flak and cynical comments from within the industry as well as the press. But, the commendable efforts of Aditya Chopra ( Producer), Shimit Amin (Director), Jaideep Sahni (Story, screenplay,dialogues and lyrics) and Shahrukh Khan have put an end to all the cynicism around 'Chak De India'. The film revolves around Kabir Khan (Shahrukh Khan) a star Indian hockey captain who misses a crucial penalty in a World Cup Hockey final match against arch rivals Pakistan, due to which India lose the game. Allegations of match fixing are charged against him and he is publicly humiliated , ostracised from society and relegated to oblivion.

Seven years later when the Indian Hockey association cannot find a coach for their world cup bound women's hockey team, Kabir Khan ( Shahrukh Khan) volunteers for the job, amidst much sniggering from the Indian Hockey association officials (portrayed very effectively by Anjan Srivastav). How Kabir Khan makes the sixteen girls chosen to represent India at the World Cup Tournament into a formidable Cup winning team is what, 'Chak De India' is all about.

All praise to Aditya Chopra to have the vision to back such an unusual plot, only a big production house such as Yash Raj Films could have given it the kind of support it needed. Shimit Amin has made the film with great honesty and it shows in every frame. His shot takings and the performances of the women hockey players are praise worthy. He has not strayed away from the plot at any time, to further the commercial value of the film, inspite of having a big star like Shahrukh.

Jaideep Sahni once again proves (after “Khosla ka Ghosla”) that he is truly a path breaking writer with a fresh and innovative approach to story-telling. Shahrukh Khan delivers a great performance he brings to his character the exact amount of restrain and energy required, with this film he proves that he has mastered his craft as an actor. All the other departments be it cinematography, editing, costume design, production design, music lend admirable support to make 'Chak De India' a credible and believable film.

The introduction sequence of the players to the coach and the fight sequence at McDonalds are both brilliantly conceived and executed. A word of praise to the casting director for the perfect casting of the women hockey players, each and everyone of them look the part and have acted freely and with the right amount of earnesty needed. 'Chak De India' offers great value for money and has great entertaining moments........ a must-see film.

Gandhi My father tells the story of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (Darshan Jariwala) and Kasturba Gandhi’s (Shefali Chhaya) relationship with their eldest son Harilal Karamchand Gandhi (Akshaye Khanna). Veteran Feroz Abbas Khan has directed the film which is based on his play ‘Mahatma vs Harilal’.

In the shadows of the Father of the nation lived his own son Harilal Gandhi, straying in the streets of India like a beggar. Harilal Gandhi is a looser, who fails to live upto the Gandhi surname. A rebellion converting to Islam, converting back to Hinduism as a remorse for his past conduct and finally drinking himself to death 5 months after the death of his great father. Mahatma Gandhi succeded in saving the nation from the British, but failed miserably in saving his son.

Sounds amazing and very interesting, doesnt it? How i wish the execution could do justice. Unfortunately, Gandhi My Father disappoints. The first half of the movie lacks the moments required to carry a historical. The pace in the first hour is sluggish. The narration picks up in the second half with a few brilliantly executed scenes. The railway station scene wherein Harilal gifts his mother a Orange and while the whole crowd that has gathered is cheering the Mahatma his son is cheering his mother, Kasturba Gandhi. Amazingly executed and Akshaye Khanna is in full form in the all important scene.

Technically the movie is strong and director Feroz Abbas Khan deserves credit. Cinematography by David Macdonald is splendid. The pre independence era and the overall look and feel has been captured on celluloid in detail. The background music is first rate.

Akshaye Khanna is brilliant. He has lived the role of Harilal Gandhi. Although not a very meaty role, he is bound to win a lot of accolades for this performance. Darshan Jariwala too has delivered a knockout performance. To state that he is Brilliant as Mahatma Gandhi would be a understatement. Shefali Chhaya excels, yet again. Bhoomika Chawla is good.

To sum things up, Gandhi My Father is a average movie with powerful performances by the lead actors. The movie has its moments but just not enough to carry a historical. Somehow, somewhere there is something lacking. In short Gandhi my father failed to live upto my expectations.

Cash revolves around the heist of a set of diamonds and the fight between the good, the bad and the cops in possessing the diamonds. In stunts - in locales - in style, Cash resembles DUS.

Angad (Suniel Shetty) an underworld Don is after a set of diamonds that comes way back from history. Aditi (Dia Mirza) his girlfriend takes help from her good friend Doc (Ajay Devgan) to execute Angad’s plan. Doc an ace con artist employes Lucky (Ritesh Deshmukh), Danny / DJ (Zayed Khan) and Pooja (Esha Deol) in accomplishing this task. Shania (Shamita Shetty) is the head of the security in guarding the diamonds. She is unaware of the fact that her boyfriend Karan is Doc from whom she has to guard the diamonds. How these groups impede with each other and get hold of the diamonds forms the rest of the story.

The first half is with its sluggish pace drags along and almost half of it is spent in introducing the characters. The film catches pace as it nears the climax. The use of animation could have been avoided at few instances.

Ajay Devgan looks life less throughout the movie. He sure does look stylish but his acting looks kinda unnatural and forced. Zayed Khan and Ritesh Deshmukh look cool and excel in the acting department with spirited performance. Suniel Shetty’s performance is good but his role in the movie could have been better. Shamita Shetty couldn’t beat her sister Shilpa Shetty in stunts (from her movie DUS) . Esha Deol wears a blank look. She needs to work on her style as well as acting. Dia Mirza looks ravishing.

On the whole, Cash has style - action - stunts in abundance but unfortunately no substance to keep you hooked.

Shankar Dada (Chiranjeevi) is a local dada. Shankar loses his heart to Jahnavi (Karishma Kotak), a radio jockey, after listening to her sweet voice in an FM channel. Once, he gets an opportunity to meet her through a contest on Gandhi and his teachings.

With the help of some professors, Shankar manages to win the contest and meets her. Jahnavi invites him to Second Innings House where there are some old men to give a lecture on Gandhigiri. With no options left, Shankar goes to library and reads about Gandhi.

As he continues to study about Gandhi, Shankar gets hallucination of watching Bapu. It helps him in the other way in giving good messages to the society.

Shankar starts frequenting to Second Innings House to meet Jahnavi. Rajalingam (Sayaji Shinde) eyes that house, for the marriage of his daughter. Learning that Shankar's girlfriend Jahnavi is staying with those old men, Rajalingam plans a trip for Shankar along with Jahnavi and the old men and gets the building vacated by ATM.

Shankar tells Rajalingam to return that building and he starts using Gandhigiri instead of Dadagiri. But Rajalingam did not relent. In order to teach him a lesson, Shankar and the old men start staging Satyagraha. At one point, Shankar reveals to Jahnavi that he was not a professor and only a local dada. So Jahnavi hates him and leaves the place.


In the climax, when Rajalingam's daughter's marriage was about to be cancelled, Shankar enters the scene and tries to convince the bridegroom's father (Saratbabu). Though he refuses to accept the alliance, his son (Pawan Kalyan) tells his father that he would surely marry the girl, as he became a fan of Shankar through the FM programme. The film ends on a happy note with the union of Shankar and Jahnavi.

Chiranjeevi once again proved that he is an expert in comedy timing and did the role with fantastic ease.

Debutant heroine Karishma Katak is the main drawback of the film.

Srikanth had got yet another chance to work with Chiranjeevi and he had a lengthy role along with Chiranjeevi. The scene where Chiru says sorry to Srikanth is excellent. Pawan Kalyan, Sada, Raviteja, Allu Arjun, Prabhudeva, Devisri Prasad gave a guest appearance in the movie.

The production values of Gemini Film Circuit are adequate.

First half of the film offers entertainment. Second half has heavy moments with emotional appeal.
