Disturbing yet enthralling
... View MoreWhat a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.
... View MoreIt’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
... View MoreThe film may be flawed, but its message is not.
... View MorePyar Ke Side Effects – There is something about this movie which makes it click. Attempting to pinpoint a lone factor will be a futile. But yes one can safely give the credit to the efforts deployed in pre-production and its effective translation onto the silver screen (the latter of course being the most challenging part).¤ Rahul Bose doesn't need any praise for his performance. Spot on! ¤ Mallika Sherawat: I had little respect for this "bimbo starlet" and categorised her meteoric rise to her manipulative publicity and manipulative features (he! he!). Watching Pyar Ke Side Effects threw that notion out of the window. She fits into the character like hand in glove. And yes, if its anyone who gets/ should get/ deserves maximum mileage and opportunity laid on a platter owing to the success of the movie then its got to be MS.¤ Sophiya:: No wonder why she is still confined to item girl roles, very puppetry acting. Seriously needs some acting lessons to add to her balance sheet (he! he! again).¤ Jeeju-Sister:: Good performance and well balanced character roles. And the father-faining act is copied from "Jhankaar Beats", BTW.¤ Ranvir Shorey: As far as I remember it was from this movie I started paying attention to Ranvir. If there is any other actor who would come on Top-Of-Mind-Recall when PYAR KE SIDE EFFECTS is uttered, then its gotta be Naanu.¤ Sharat Saxena:: As usual, dependable.¤ Jas Arora & Suchitra Pillai: Fit the bill effectively. It couldn't have got any better.The never-ending battle between Delhi and Bombay is well presented. And of course the coffee. And the protagonist being a DJ all these adds to say that the director is in sync with the times. The innovative ideas such as the comic book type animation and the protagonist connecting with the audience deserves brownie points.Even during channel surfing if one happens to stumble upon Pyar Ke Side Effects, its difficult to resist stopping by and catching up with a few moments of the movie .. and needless to say, one would end up watching the rest.
... View MoreI was quite hesitant about watching this flick as I didn't like Sherawat's Murder. After some recommendations, I watched it last night and thought it was quite enjoyable and likable. Saket Chaudhary tells the story in a light manner. My only complaint is that Saket takes a lot of the humour from American sitcoms and movies. 'Pyaar ke Side Effects' tells us the story of Sid (from his point of view), his relationship with his girlfriend and friends and his fear of commitment. Sounds familiar? Anyway many of the 'issues' presented are things we guys have dealt with and girls put up with. The story is quite relatable and told in a mature manner.Rahul Bose plays the central character and totally owns the movie. He is so real that any guy can easily identify with him. Supporting cast that includes Ranvir Shorey and Sophia Chaudhary are equally brilliant. Mallika Sherawat is alright. The songs are alright but quite forgettable.If you're looking for something with light humour and something to watch with your girlfriend/boyfriend, this is a god enough choice. Now I can smile at you mischievously :).
... View MoreA normal guy, Siddharth (Rahul Bose) is in love with a girl, Trisha (Mallika Sherawat) but is not confident if he can take responsibilities after marriage. To create more funny situations than that there are his sis and bro-in-law, his shabby friend, and her friend and dad and Baby Doll Volume 3. There is no story as such, but there are some good punches and some adult jokes. A good performance by Rahul Bose (as usual), Suchitra Pillai (in all the few scenes she gets) and others. (As expected) Mallika Sherawat doesn't have to do any acting in this film as well, but has done her job to wear minimalistic cloths. The editor has done a very good job, until the climax. Such a to the point movie doesn't deserve little bit "filmy" climax. Worth watching once in single-screen cinema; but won't suggest to spend loads on this one!
... View MorePKSE is possibly that one romantic comedy in Hindi file history. Really a fun movie.........with rocking music. Sid is a short, middle-aged DJ who vainly tries to talk Trisha out of fleeing her wedding. They meet six months on, she drinks herself silly, they kiss and the rest is history. Director Saket Chaudhary sees the battles of the sexes entirely from the male viewpoint. The supporting actor Ranveer Shorey(Nanu) sid's roomie also put fantastic laugh ,specially his underwear !!! Nanus force us to look back in Notting Hill ... Music is too good.Gr8 music Pritam. "Pyar Karke" already a hit number. "Pyar Karke" is a gr8 song to listen.
