PK
Raj Kumar Hirani's PK has evoked mixed reactions from cinegoers but Aamir's smile proves that -it is the success at the end that matters. The movie continues to do well at box office
2014 was not less eventful; Three great artists (all April Born) passed away in 2014 leaving their memories behind.
Suchitra Sen, Zohra Sehgal and Deven Verma, each of them at one point had won the hearts of millions by their performances, each contributed to Indian Cinema. Sooner or later they will be part of our faint memories, yet whenever, their films will be replayed, they will continue to leave an impact on those watching.
Suchitra Sen (April 6,1931- Jan 17, 2014)
Suchitra Sen, Being a bengali actress, was one of the top artistes of her time , remembered for Agnipariksha, Harano Sur, Saptapadi, Pathey Holo Deri, Kamal Lata, Indrani, Sabar Upore, Suryatoran, Shaare Chuattor, Sadanander Mela, Jiban Trishna, Ekti Raat, Chaawa Paawa, Shapmochan, Bipasha, Naborag, Trijama, Rajlakshmi Srikanto, Har Mana Har, Alo Amar Alo, Ora Thakey Odhare, Grihaprabesh. She & her co star Uttam Kumar together became the most adored and loved pair of over two decades.
Her last few years were of self denial and in solitude, away from public life.Howevever,those who watched her will not be able to erase the memory of her profound performances and romatic era, she belonged to.
Zohra Sehgal (April 27, 1912-July 10,2014)
The Veteran adorable actor of Cheeni Kum, Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam,Bend it like Beckham,Veer Zaara she lighted up the audience with her lively and cute twinkle in her eyes and pinch of comic role she was so good to perform at.
Her performances and zest for life always made headlines on media.
Deven Verma( April 23,1937- Dec 2,2014)
Who can forget Bahadur of Film "Angoor" which won him Filmfare Award in 1983. Acted in several films from 1960 to early eighties, he created his own comic style different from those who saw Johny Walker or Mehmood, Rajendra Nath or Mukri in early fifty or late sixties. Movie after movie, his popularity grew over time and whether in a smaller or pivotal role Deven Verma was noticed and praised for his talent- Natural and effortless.
Gulzar, his director of "Angoor" and a friend had this to say about him:
"Gulzar : He was a great actor, I wouldn't call him a comedian
'Angoor' (1983) was one of the major films we worked on together. I was in regular touch with him, even though he had moved to Pune. He had told me about his heart problem. He wanted to have a screening of 'Angoor' at a club and wanted me to present it, but it didn't happen. He was a great actor, I wouldn't call him a comedian. He never used buffoonery that we're used to attaching with comedy, now. He played his two characters in 'Angoor' differently. The only similarity between the two is the name, rest everything — from the body language to the way they spoke — every nuance was distinct. I got the news of his demise from a common friend in Pune and immediately conveyed my condolences. It sounds cliched... There's only so much you can do, hold the hand.. one can't do more than that.. He lived his life well, his sense of humour was there till the end, despite being unwell. While he had a sense of humour and was a very lively person, with spirit and energy, he was also a sober person at the same time. One could consult him on personal matters and he would give sound advice. His demise is a loss."

Rishi Kapoor,Irrfan Khan, Arjun Rampal, Shruti Hassan and surprisingly a new face Shriswara as Nafisa - all give excellent performances.
Irrfan is one actor who is always a delight to watch and puts his heart and soul in every role he plays but it's the director who deserves the kudos to have got such performances from every artist.
One of well made and appreciated movies.
Rating 8/10

"Margarita with a straw "-A new generation movie with difference -starring Kalki Koechlin is about a bisexual Laila who finds love with outspoken activist Khanum(Sayani Gupta)
According to Kalki the role was truly demanding as she had to portray a character which has a disability(Cerebral Palsy). Written & directed by Shonali Bose, story is inspired by Shonali's cousin, Malini who has cerebral palsy. Kalki was introduced to Malini who she lived with, watched movies together to get to see the world from her perspective and play a true life role. In today's context of Bollywood style of filmmaking, such initiatives have rarely been taken. However, as new generation of movie makers and actors are ready to take plunge into realistic cinema, no wonder we will get to see more meaningful films like "Margarita With a Straw" in very near future. The makers and actors deserve accolades.
(Cerebral palsy (CP) is an umbrella term that refers to a group of disorders affecting a person’s ability to move. It is a permanent life-long condition, but generally does not worsen over time. It is due to damage to the developing brain either during pregnancy or shortly after birth-https://www.cerebralpalsy.org.au)

Priyanka Chopra appeared on front page of Toronto Star when she arrived for the world premiere of her film " Mary Kom" in which she portrays a five time world amateur boxing champion.
Linda Barnard movie writer for Toronto Star had this to say about Priyanka
"India's Angelina Jolie, Bollywood superstar Priyanka Chopra, changed her body and hopes to change a few minds by playing Indian boxing champion Mary Kom in the self-titled biopic, which had its world premiere at TIFF Thursday"
"Videos of Kom's fights "were my bedtime stories" as Chopra watched them over and over to learn the fighter's style. The right handed Chopra also had to learn to fight "like a southpaw" to match the left-handed Kom and ate a high protein diet to bulk up while doing punishing workouts with heavy weights "to exhaustion"
