Movie Review "Judwaa 2"
Firstly, Dhawan — although earnest in his portrayal as long-lost twins
Prem and Raja — simply doesn’t have the star power or charisma that Khan
possesses. It’s not for want of trying, but the jokes are juvenile
(Sample this: Who’s the president of United States: Donald Duck or
Donald Trump?)
The film begins with a smuggler getting cross with a rich businessman
Malhotra (Sachin Khedekar) when he rats on him to custom officials over a
bag of illicit diamonds. But the villain takes off with one of
Malhotra’s newborn twins (Raja) to punish the good Samaritan.
Raja, who was an insignificant pawn in the smuggler’s avenging game,
grows up on the streets of Mumbai after a random lady picks him up from
the railway tracks and adopts him as her son, but Prem grows up as a
sheltered son in the lap of luxury and overprotective parents in London.
Prem is a diffident gentleman, while Raja gets by in life with his wits
and brawn.
Everybody in Judwaa 2 overacts, and the dialogues feel like they were written by an adolescent for his high school drama.
The women, Jacqueline Fernandez and Taapsee Pannu, are on call to look pretty and be airheads with toned bodies. While Fernandez does her bit convincingly by giggling gregariously, Pannu is a misfit and looks lost.
Dhawan’s bronzed torso seems to be another character in this tedious comedy. When everything else fails, a shirtless action sequence or a shirtless song sequence is meant to salvage the worn-out film. Barring few jokes that land, the majority of the gags fail to evoke any emotion.
Even the physical comedy borders on the crude. And employing sidekicks with speech impediments (Rajpal Yadav as Raja’s mate) isn’t funny — back then or now.
But the reboot of the songs by Anu Malik, Oonchi Hai Building and Tan Tana Tan, are fun-filled and take you down a nostalgic route. However, a glitzy music video or a cameo by the original star of Judwaa, Khan, can’t make up for a flawed comedy.

Some Interesting Gossips About Kishor Kumar
Kumar
is said to have been paranoid about not being paid. During recordings,
he would sing only after his secretary confirmed that the producer had
made the payment. On one occasion, when he discovered that his dues had
not been fully paid, he appeared on set with makeup on only one side of
his face. When the director questioned him, he replied "Aadha paisa to
aadha make-up." (Half make-up for half payment). On the sets of Bhai Bhai, Kishore Kumar refused to act because the director M V Raman owed him 5,000.
Ashok Kumar persuaded him to do the scene but when the shooting
started, Kumar walked across the floor, walked a few places and
said, Paanch Hazzar Rupaiya (five thousand rupees) and did a somersault.
After he reached the end of the floor, he left the studio. On another
occasion, when producer R.C. Talwar did not pay his dues in spite of
repeated reminders, Kumar arrived at Talwar's residence and shouting
"Hey Talwar, de de mere aath hazaar" ("Hey Talwar, give me my eight
thousand") every morning until Talwar paid him.
In
spite of his "no money, no work" principle, sometimes Kumar recorded
for free even when the producers were willing to pay. Such films include
those produced by Rajesh Khanna and Danny Denzongpa. On one occasion, Kumar helped actor-turned-producer Bipin Gupta by giving him 20,000
for the film Dal Mein Kala (1964). When actor Arun Kumar Mukherjee—one
of the first persons to appreciate Kishore's singing talent—died, Kumar
regularly sent money to Mukherjee's family in Bhagalpur.
Many
journalists and writers have written about Kishore Kumar's seemingly
eccentric behavior. He placed a sign that said "Beware of Kishore" at
the door of his Warden Road flat.
Once, producer-director H. S. Rawail, who owed him some money, visited
his flat to pay the dues. Kumar took the money and when Rawail offered
to shake hands with him, Kumar reportedly put Rawail's hand in his
mouth, bit it and asked "Didn’t you see the sign?". Rawail laughed off
the incident and left quickly. According to another reported incident,
once Kumar was due to record a song for producer-director G. P. Sippy.
As Sippy approached his bungalow, he saw Kumar going out in his car.
Sippy asked Kumar to stop his car but Kumar increased his speed. Sippy
chased him to Madh Island where Kumar finally stopped his car near the ruined Madh Fort.
When Sippy questioned his strange behavior, Kumar refused to recognize
or talk to him and threatened to call the police. The next morning,
Kumar reported for the recording session. An angry Sippy questioned him
about his behaviour the previous day but Kumar said that Sippy must have
dreamt the incident and said that he was in Khandwa on the previous
day.
Once,
a producer went to court to get a decree that Kumar must follow the
director's orders. As a consequence, he obeyed the director to the
letter. He refused to alight from his car until the director ordered him
to do so. After filming a car scene in Mumbai, Kumar drove until he
reached Khandala because the
director forgot to say "Cut". In the 1960s, a financier named Kalidas
Batvabbal, who was disgusted with Kumar's alleged lack of cooperation
during the shooting of Half Ticket,
reported to the income tax authorities, who raided his house. Later,
Kumar invited Batvabbal to his home, asked him to enter a cupboard for a
chat and locked him inside. He unlocked Batvabbal after two hours and
told him, "Don’t ever come to my house again".
On
13 October 1987—his brother Ashok's 76th birthday—he died of a heart
attack in Mumbai at 4:45 pm. His body was taken to Khandwa for
cremation. Kumar had recorded his last song, Guru Guru—a duet with Asha Bhosle for the film Waqt Ki Aawaz (1988) composed by Bappi Lahiri.

Movie Review - MOM
It’s always said that ‘Since God cannot be everywhere, He created Mother’. MOM is a heart wrenching story, which mirrors the power of a mother in lieu of the aforementioned adage. The film starts off with school teacher Devki (Sridevi) punishing one of her students in school named Mohit for sending a lewd message to her daughter Arya (Sajal Ali), who also studies in the same class. Despite Sridevi’s love and affection towards Arya, Arya can’t get over the fact that she is her step-mom. There’s a constant brewing tension between them. One night, when Arya goes for a Valentine’s day party with her friends at a far off cottage, Mohit and his accomplices seize the opportunity to get even with her and land up brutally raping her and dumping her in a gutter. What happens after that are a series of court sessions, which ultimately end up declaring the ‘powerful’ Mohit and his partners as innocent and they walk away scot-free. Seeing justice slipping out of her hands, Devki approaches a small time detective Dayashankar Kapoor aka DK (Nawazuddin Siddiqui) to help her. Just as Devki starts ‘punishing’ the culprits, she comes under the radar of the razor sharp police officer Mathew Francis (Akshaye Khanna). What is the reason for Arya to hate Devki so much, does Devki succeed in her plan of exposing the culprits or does she get caught by Inspector Mathew Francis while doing so, what happens of the culprits ultimately and does Arya finally get justice, is what forms the rest of the story.
