Mohe Tu Rang De Basanti...

Rating: 10/10 (11 April 2006)

This is probably the best movie that I have see in recent times. Honestly, I watched this movie because I knew the musical score was done by the one and only A R Rahman. There is no doubting or questioning the guy, he is just simply the best. In fact, right now I'm listening to Tu Bin Bataaye. That is my favorite song out of the whole album. The music is just mind blowing, thank you so much Rahman sahib. Well as I was saying, I originally watched the movie for the songs but what I got was a two in one. Great songs and an awesome film. This is what you call good cinema. I wait and search for good political cult films that also can be considered entertainment rather than a boring piece of work that is only informative. This movie literally has it all. A film on youth definitely has to have partying, going out, eating, and just being careless and yet it has much more. It also has good drama not melodrama, it has a message and a theme that speaks to you. Good jokes in between as well.
What I love especially is the way the actors portray the characters so well. I love the way they all bond with each other on screen. Well I feel that I'm being repetitive but this is just too good of a movie, please do not miss this one, I beg you! OH and make sure to listen to the music, it is the best.
Other movie I would recommend: Bombay by Mani Ratnam, Water by Deepa Mehta, Swades by Ashutosh Gowariker and Lagaan by Ashutosh Gowariker.
