This man is fast becoming one of my favourite directors in Bollywood.
Although, known for making the non-commercial films, Tigmanshu Dhulia
goes a bit mainstream this time but without making it feel quite so
irritating. Maybe just the songs were a bit out of place and
unnecessary, but apart from that ‘Bullet Raja’ is really worth the
watch.
The whole Raja Misra (Saif Ali Khan) and Rudra (Jimmy Shergill)
bromance brings to mind the Jai-Veeru bromance from ‘Sholay,’ however,
not as powerfully portrayed on screen. Jimmy Shergill, an actor I have
garnered respect for over the years, does good justice to his role.
I always thought Saif Ali Khan’s crowning achievement was landing
Kareena Kapoor as his wife, but he proved me wrong. I must say this is
one of his best performances to date. He’s able to portray those little
things that make a movie character whole, something I haven’t seen him
do in a while.
Dhulia is able to bring to light the underbelly of the political
situation in in Uttar Pradesh quite well. The story is something we
never keep in mind, although we do experience it from time to time.
‘Bullet Raja’ (Raja Misra’s ‘political’ name), reluctantly adopts a
gangster life due to the violence and caste-divide in UP politics.
The movie follows the traditional gangster goes good style as Bullet
Raja manages to stop the world from falling into anarchy. The violence
present throughout the movie is very Tarantino-esque. It has that whole
disregard for physics and humorous vibe to it.
The scene where Raja insists on shooting one of his targets from more
than 100 metres away, provides a bit of comic relief in the midst of
loads of violence.
The Verdict: ‘Bullet Raja’ is definitely worth the watch. It has that
very ‘Sholay’ feel to it although I doubt it will garner that big a
cult following. Catch this one before it runs out of theatres!

Chandni (Hindi: चांदनी, Translation: "Moonlight") is a 1989 Hindi film, starring Sridevi, Rishi Kapoor and Vinod Khanna. It was directed by Yash Chopra.
Chandni was a blockbuster in 1989 and is one of the most successful films of Indian cinema. The huge profits of this musical brought an end to Chopra's lean phase. The platinum success of its music was instrumental in bringing back music into Hindi films and ending an era of violence in Bollywood productions.
For the cast, the film reaffirmed Sridevi's position as the top female star of the Eighties. It prolonged Rishi Kapoor's fading career and showed that he was still profitable as a leading hero. The film provided a boost for Vinod Khanna's career, and reunited Kapoor and Khanna, who last performed together in the popular film Amar Akbar Anthony (1977). Sridevi's white costumes became popular as the 'Chandni Look,' and the songs of the film are still a rage. Though this was not the first time Yash Chopra shot a film in Switzerland, the film's extensive scenes there made it a popular tourist destination for Indians.
The film won the National Film Award for Best Popular Film of that year.

One day, gRohit calls Chandni and asks her to wait for him on the terrace of her house, which she does. As she's waiting, the afternoon's silence is broken by the roaring blades of a helicopter. Rohit appears and proceeds to shower Chandni in red rose petals from the copter. When he disappears, she is surrounded again by silence, but she has a feeling something has happened.
Seconds later, Chandni hears the phone ringing and runs to answer, knowing it is Rohit. She is told that he is in the hospital. His family at the hospital greet her with stony expressions and accuse her of being the cause for Rohit's falling from the helicopter. Learning that he is paralysed on his right side, his family continues to berate her. Rohit too berates her, which is too much. Intent on erasing every memory of Rohit, Chandni decides to move to Mumbai.

Plot[edit]
Ramprasad Dashrathprasad Sharma (Amol Palekar) is looking for a better paying job. He and his sister Ratna (Manju Singh) have no relatives or acquaintances except Dr. Kedar (David). Dr.Kedar tells him about Bhavani Shankar's (Utpal Dutt) firm known as Urmila Traders. Shankar is a weird man. He is a man of traditional values, hence he naturally hates youth wearing modern clothes. He is a sports fan, but thinks lowly of youth knowing anything about sports. But his most weird trait is hatred towards men without moustaches. He thinks that men without moustaches are characterless.
Ramprasad has a moustache. He takes care of other problems by wearing kurta & feigning ignorance about sports. Bhavani hires him immediately. Ram is a hardworking guy, so Bhavani (& Ram) have no problems. However, Ram once takes leave by pretending that his mother (who died many years ago) has taken ill, and goes to watch a hockey match. Bhavani Shankar, who also attended the match, sees him there.
The next day Bhavani summons Ramprasad to his office and asks him about the Hockey match. Remembering the plot of a movie a friend of his is shooting, Ram convinces Bhavani Shankar that he had seen his "moustache-less" identical twin Lucky (alias Lakshmanprasad Dashrathprasad Sharma) at the stadium.
Bhavani Shankar buys his argument & feels bad about accusing him and decides to make amends by hiring Lucky to teach his daughter Urmila (Bindiya Goswami) music. Ramprasad reluctantly shaves his moustache to become Lucky and starts to teach music to Urmila. He is helped by his actor friend Deven Verma (playing himself).
Now Urmila aka Urmi is the exact opposite of her father. She takes immediate liking to Lucky, while Ram is barely noticed by her. Bhavani notices this & gives Ram another job to tutor on the pretext of her exams. Meanwhile, Mrs. Srivastav (Dina Pathak), a socialite, is roped to play the part of Ram, "Lakshman" & Ratna's mother. Like Ram, she also ends up playing her own twin in front of Bhavani.
Ram decides to tell Urmila the truth. Urmila tells him to tell the truth to Bhavani as well. Ram goes to Bhavani to tell the truth, but Bhavani sees Ram's moustache giving away. Bhavani exposes Ram, but ends up thinking that Lucky murdered Ram & impersonated him to marry Urmila.
In a hilarious chase that follows, Bhavani ends up totalling a police jeep. The Senior Inspector (Om Prakash) mistakes him for a thug named Pascal D'Costa & is about to lock him up in the jail. Only when his Inspector identifies Bhavani Shankar by his real identity is he freed. By now, a harried Bhavani has developed hatred for twin as well.
On coming home, he finds that Urmila & Lucky are married. He refuses to give them blessings, until Dr.Kedar comes to the scene & explains the whole situation. Now, Bhavani becomes even more furious, but on everybody's insistence, relents. The film ends with a family photo of Mrs.Srivastav, Ratna, Urmila, Ram, Dr.Kedar, Bhavani's sister Kalindi (Shubha Khote) & Bhavani (who is shown without moustache).

Jogi Thakur (Ashok Kumar) is a simple man of high principles. He is a resident son-in-law who, with his wife, has been bequeathed property and estates by his father-in-law. He breaks his marriage to an autocratic landlady (Veena) when he finds out that on her wife's order, the chief accountant of the estate has cunningly obtained his signatures on an order that the houses of the poor be burnt. He leaves home, vowing never to return as long as he lives, leaving his daughter Neena behind. He moves to Mumbai where he makes a living by entertaining children in a park(the famous song "Rail Gaadi", said to be India's first rap number). He is specially fond of a girl whose name, incidentally, is Neena (played by baby Sarika), too. Unfortunately the girl takes ill and dies.
He then returns to his village, Chandanpur, where he finds that the daughter of one of his villager friends, Baiju, has been abducted. He rushes to the place where she is about to be raped by the estate's cunning chief accountant, and kills him to protect the girl. The villagers make up a phony story to save him, but he opts to tell the truth in the court and is jailed. There, he starts tending to the garden and composes philosophical poems. The doctor at the jail, Dr. Biren (Sanjeev Kumar) takes a special liking to him. Coincidentally, Neena, Jogi Thakur's daughter is set to be married with the doctor. Jogi Thakur finds this out by chance as he is tending to the garden outside doctor's room and overhears their conversations. He also learns that his daughter hates criminals. And so he shields his face from her on the few occasions that they meet. Unfortunately, he takes ill just as he is granted pardon by the government for his good behaviour. The doctor, has come to think of him as a father figure. He tells Jogi Thakur that the day he will be out of jail will be the eve of his marriage. Jogi Thakur is taken by the desire to see his daughter being wedded, and hurries to see her. However, he does not want anyone to recognize him. Finally he joins the beggars who have gathered for a treat for the marriage, where his daughter and son-in-law are serving food. He manages to give his blessings to her and hurries out. However, as he collapses on the road, he is recognized and people gather around him. The news reaches his daughter who rushes to the spot to meet with her father at his last moment.
Adorned with such wonderful songs such as Rail Gaadi Rail Gaadi Chhuk Chhuk Chhuk Chhuk Chhuk Chhuk Chhuk, Beechwale Station Bole Ruk Ruk Ruk Ruk Ruk Ruk Ruk Ruk, sung by Ashok Kumar himself, Ek Tha Bachpan by Lata Mangeshkar (sung by Jogi Thakur's daughter), and finally the memorable Jeevan Se Lambe Hai Bandhu Yeh Jeevan Ke Raste by Manna Dey (sung by the bullock-cart driver who carries Jogi Thakur near his village in the night), the movie is an emotional journey through a man's life who stands by his principles only to be overcome by love for his daughter in the end.

Synopsis[edit]
Subir (Amitabh Bachchan) is a professional singer whose career is soaring. He does not plan to marry—until he meets Uma (Jaya Bhaduri), a sweet village girl who also sings. Subir falls in love with Uma and marries her. He returns to Mumbai with his new bride. Subir continues as a singer and also fosters Uma's singing career. His career falters, however, just as Uma's singing career begins to thrive. Eventually, she becomes more famous than her husband, sparking jealousy from Subir. His pride and jealousy tear the marriage apart. The question becomes whether Subir can overcome his jealousy.
The movie reaches a very sensitive situation when the couple separates and Uma has a miscarriage. In what is considered a masterpiece of direction by Mukherjee and scoring by Burman, the couple comes together again in an emotional reunion and they sing together.
Abhimaan's influence[edit]
Soon after Jaya Bachchan won the Filmfare Best Actress Award for the film, she cut down on work and later took many years off to raise a family. Some have speculated that she focused on personal affairs to avoid the turmoil that her character in Abhimaan experienced.[citation needed]
The film was also a turning point for Bindu, who, for the first time, played a sympathetic character. Previously, she was known for playing vamps/cabaret dancers, such as in Amitabh's star-making hit Zanjeer (1973).[6] This film was very popular in Sri Lanka more than in India and was screened continuously for 590 days in the same cinema, Empire, Colombo.
