Yours Truly: My Name is Khan
http://lakhsmee.blogspot.com/2010/02/my-name-is-khan.html
Saturday, February 13, 2010. My Name is Khan. First things first - if you are a Shah Rukh fan, your movie ticket is just worth for one scene where Rizvan Khan (SRK) blushes when Mandira (Kajol) says "marry me". That's vintage SRK for you.otherwise, it very very hard to see the usual SRK that his fans (including yours truly) would want to see. Honestly, this movie belongs to Kajol more than SRK. Undoubtedly, SRK inspires yet again and proves his critics wrong that he can just be good as a candy-floss ...

Yours Truly: November 2007
http://lakhsmee.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 18, 2007. Polladhavan’s story line is no different from the movies like Dhil, Krieedom, Malaikottai and so on. Its about a guy who lands up in a freaky encounter with the villain and how he ends up running around and towards the ends run behind the villain group – and kills them violently. And yes, our hero will also have a love interest – so that the viewers can see some catchy duets. So is Polladhavan yet another run of the mill movie? Posted by Yours Truly. Links to this post. OSO is ...

Yours Truly: Yaradi Ne Mohini - Review
http://lakhsmee.blogspot.com/2008/04/yaradee-ne-mohini-review.html
Saturday, April 5, 2008. Yaradi Ne Mohini - Review. Saw a movie first day first show after what seems like ages. And its been a while since I wrote a review for a brand new movie. Yaradi Nee Mohini (YNM) - one couldn't have a better title having Nayanthara as the heroine. She is out and out ravishing in this movie. Or who can overcome his limitations (cann also be read as looks). Nayan looks like a goddess. She is one major crowd puller and she has once again added a smash hit to her kitty after Billa.

Yours Truly: Writer Sujatha is No more...
http://lakhsmee.blogspot.com/2008/02/writer-sujatha-is-no-more.html
Thursday, February 28, 2008. Writer Sujatha is No more. The man behind EVM – and what an eventful journey even after retiring from BHEL. His Katrathum Petrathum articles were a treat to read - given the unbiased view of the good, bad and ugly in movies, literature, music, science, politics and what not. He was a significant contributor in all the movies that he worked so far – be it story, script or dialogue writing. His best being Kannathil Mutha mittal. Posted by Yours Truly. Superficial people find th...

Yours Truly: March 2008
http://lakhsmee.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 19, 2008. Raghuvaran is no more. Looks like the month of February and March 2008 is a loss for Tamil Cinema. If it was Sujatha in the month of February, its now the turn of Raghuvaran in March. May his soul rest in peace! And though it may sound cliche, its indeed a HUGE LOSS for Tamil/Telegu Cinema. He was all said and done - one of the best villains in Tamil film industry - and I could hear you guys saying "I Know - I know and I know" (puriyatha puthir). Posted by Yours Truly.

Yours Truly: Dasavatharam - My View
http://lakhsmee.blogspot.com/2008/07/dasavatharam-my-view.html
Sunday, July 6, 2008. Dasavatharam - My View. I’m afraid that I will have to say “NO”. It doesn’t get a place in the classic list and what’s shocking to see is - it’s not even in his top 5 movies! It’s not closer to the likes of Salangai Oli, Devar Magan, Mahanadhi, Virumaandi or Hey Ram! Otherwise, All I would say is “Mr. Kamal, May the lady luck be with you and smile all through the silver jubilee function of Marmayogi! Posted by Yours Truly. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Yours Truly: June 2007
http://lakhsmee.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 15, 2007. Before it “cools” down – thought of writing a few lines about Sivaji. First of all, the movie is true to the punch dialogue “Pera Kettala Chumma Athiruthu Ella”. Suman as Adiseshan is a revelation in Sivaji and he definitely stands up to the stature of Rajni – where he needs to out-smart him and make Rajni vulnerable in front of the corrupt system. The second innings for Suman has taken a jump start with Sivaji and he is sure to go places. All the other supporting characters like R...

Sunday, November 30, 2008. Vaaranam Ayiram - Review. Vaaranam Ayiram evoked mixed response in me albeit I like the movie on the whole - especially for Suriya. As many have pointed out its sure the best that came from an actor in the recent times and what a transformation that Suriya goes through in each frame - a truly fantabulous performance! As I read in one of the blogs (I think it’s. But since the movie goes in as various episodes in Suriya’s life – it makes an interesting watch. And there are two ot...

Yours Truly: July 2007
http://lakhsmee.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 25, 2007. WARNING: DO NOT GET CONNED BY AJITH INTRODUCTORY SCENE - you may even end up walking out of the theatre by this first scene thinking that it will be yet another mindless flick like Anjaneya or Alwar. Patience most of the time would be rewarding. And Kreedom's first scene (Ajit's fight seq) is a classic example. Though Trisha's role is insignificant - she is definitely watchable and she looks ravishing in Akkam Pakkam song. Watch out! Vivek's comedy is a big let down - though in ...
