Readers Write: Bhoot by Vinay


Update: Comment from Timepass reader Akhil added Sep 12, 2005.

We are starting a revolution here! Readers are beginning to write back with their comments and additions.... Here is one of them submitted by Vinay `Matchpoint' Sharma. I have felt free to act as editor...

===========================================================================
Did I tell you that I saw this movie 'Bhoot'?

Sahi picture tha be.
Hindi movies have come a long way now, one of the major advancements being that
instead of copying Hollywood movies, they have started to recycle it, a
very environmentally friendly process.

Some features of Bhoot:
1. This movie was way more sophisticated than Uski Roti. Here, instead of
Suchcha Singh eating chicken for 22:32 minutes, they have shown Ajay Devgan
going to his office, bitching there (sound muted) and coming back home
using the elevator, this has been done a couple of times in the movie to
fill up the space left in the movie with missing songs to maintain the
marathon length of the movie. I forgot to mention he even had a laptop.

2. Urmila has definitely gotten good laser treatment done on her legs,
they look smoother then her previous exposures.

3. Extensive use of sophisticated graphic animation enables the director to
show a superimposed still of the twisted neck of the watchman.

4. This movie is a real eye opener (not popper), which proves that even
bhoots are smart enough to trust in kaanoon.

5. Nana Patekar has done his best performance ever where he acts as a
jobless police office who wants to solve a case of twisted neck bad
graphics.

6. The havas ka shikar philosophy is also added like a hint of mint in kala
khatta which almost gives the move a jaljeera type texture and feel.

See this movie to believe it...

Well? You still sitting there looking at this page? Get up off your ass and go rent this film! Or watch it in the theater (No, sorry I was only kidding about the theater bit, don't waste your money. Seeing these movies on video is way better. Wait till you can find it at Jackson Heights, NYC)....

Hi, This is about your "Bhoot" Page. What you didn't include is, in the Extended Edition DVD of the movie, There's this song called "Bhoot Hoon Main" performed by a rank biatch called Sunidhi Chauhan, that is, She has sung this song, and does what is supposed to be 'item-dancing' in the video version too. Though that isn't an undesirable thing, as the 'Item Dance' is supposed to be less "Dance" and more "Item" (With generous quantities of 'todai venum', whatever that means), The fact which makes this song in the list of top "Magaan" Songs is the fact that whoever the hell is responsible for it attempts to make SC look like a hot Bhoot anyone'll like to sleep with, and fails miserably in both and finally makes her look like a fugly chick in black torn dresses with "Raakh" smeared generously all over her. Though my humour is not as good as yours, I think the piece, with minor grammatical corrections is good enough to be included in the bhoot page, isn't it?
