Movie Review: The Social Network Is Your New Friend


Justin Timberlake, Jesse Eisenberg, The Social NetworkMerrick Morton/Columbia Pictures
A-
Review in a Hurry: It's ironic that only a week after Oliver Stone's Wall Street sequel came out, The Social Network schools the old man by absolutely nailing the new generation of rich jerkwads, in this hip and savvy look at the life of Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg (Jesse Eisenberg).

The Bigger Picture: Admit it, when you heard somebody was making a movie about Facebook, you probably groaned, right? Made some kind of reference to how there needed to be a "Dislike" button you could click? Then when they announced that David Fincher would direct and Aaron Sorkin script, perhaps you had some second thoughts...but still have yet to be won over by those billboards of Eisenberg's scowling face.
Rest assured, this is trademark Sorkin and Fincher all the way, and the only reason not to see the movie is if you already hit the mental dislike button on those two a long time ago. Yes, Fincher misstepped with Benjamin Button, but remember, biopics tend to work better when they're about real people rather than fictionalized saintly figures.
Using the ultra-crisp cinematography afforded by the Red camera, and his trademark darkness and shadows, Fincher follows the progress of Zuckerberg—an antisocial prodigy who can't stop being a smartmouth even when it guarantees him trouble. He goes from the Harvard dorm where he expands upon various existing ideas to create a unifying Facebook, to the heights of success, where he inevitably loses friends and encounters lawsuits from everyone he might conceivably have ripped off in the process.
The Social NetworkColumbia TriStar
Two of these cases—one brought by former best friend and CBO Eduardo Saverin (future Spider-Man Andrew Garfield), and the other by elitist rowing championship twins (Armie Hammer, excellent in both roles), who arguably inspired Zuckerberg early on—frame the flashback action of the film.
The movie's title, especially in that familiar font, is meant to refer to Zuckerberg's famous creation, but it also indirectly refers to the various social networks people travel in at different stages, from the elite clubs at Harvard to the business alliances one makes and breaks later on. Napster cofounder Sean Parker (Justin Timberlake) proves instrumental in the latter.
And while some have been skeptical about Timberlake, both haters and fans should appreciate him here: The naysayers can boo him as he plays a despicable character, while supporters can admire the extent to which he's gleefully willing to subvert his own media image.
What will be difficult for some viewers, and likely Academy voters as well, is that The Social Network doesn't really offer anybody to root for. Though there's a forced attempt at a grace note near the movie's end, Zuckerberg as depicted here is not a guy you'd ever want to be friends with, and most of the folks he has run-ins with are even worse; his lack of pretension relative to them is refreshing, but doesn't necessarily make him more likable.
It's a compelling tale regardless, but viewers who prefer clear heroes and villains in their tales might leave dissatisfied.
The 180—a Second Opinion: Sorkin's stereotypical snappy banter, while not overrunning the movie, does dominate at least three key scenes (including the opening). While entertaining, it does draw attention to itself as less-than-realistic.


Movie Review: It's Kind of a Funny Story Actually Kind of a Touching, Quirky Story


Keir Gilchrist, Emma Roberts, It?s Kind of a Funny StoryK.C. Bailey/Focus Features
B+
Review in a Hurry: Feeling mental? Check out this Funny Story of a suicidal teenager (Keir Gilchrest) who checks himself into an adult psychiatric hospital. Aided by solid performances, this offbeat comedy lives up to its title, though it could have stepped a little farther out on the ledge.

The Bigger Picture: Based on Ned Vizzini's novel of the same name, Funny Story plays like One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest as interpreted by John Hughes—and with a depressive Ferris Bueller at its center.
But directors-screenwriters Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck are running this asylum, where 16-year-old Craig Kilner (Gilchrist) is admitted after becoming overwhelmed by school, dating and other adolescent issues. Craig hopes for a quick fix, but is locked into a minimum five-day stay—and since the youth ward is under renovation, he's sent to stay with the adults.
One of the patients, moody wisecracker Bobby (Zach Galifianakis), takes the new kid under his (wounded) wing and becomes an unlikely mentor and friend. Also helping out is fetching teen and budding love interest Noelle (Emma Roberts), a recovering "cutter" who makes Craig forget his unrequited crush on a best bud's girl.
Boden and Fleck fill in plot bits and break up the sometimes-languid pace with Craig's voice-over/direct address to the camera, as well as animation and fantasy sequences. (The patients' glam-pop performance of "Under Pressure" is especially gratifying.) They use the devices to amusing effect and create a skewed sensibility without straining the quirkiness. Still, given the dark subject matter, the humor might've had a bigger bite if it had veered into a more daring, darker place.
Galifianakis develops a disarming rapport with the sweet, vulnerable (and thankfully not whiny) Gilchrest. The funny schlub—with his well-worn green sweater—slips comfortably into the role of wry observer but also shows surprising sensitivity and restraint in dramatic scenes.
Memorable in smaller roles are Viola Davis, oozing empathy as Craig's therapist; Daniel London as a "Hasidic acid-head" with ultrasensitive ears; and Bernard White as Craig's Egyptian roommate, who's too despondent to get outta bed.


Movie Review: Secretariat as Boring as It Looks


Diane Lane, John Malkovich,SecretariatJohn Bramley/ Disney Enterprises, Inc
C
Review in a Hurry: The true-life account of the "world's greatest racehorse" deserves better than this bland adaptation from the Disney factory. Worthy of the glue factory? Neigh! Secretariat is probably a safe bet for devoted horse-lovers, but others should pony up for a different flick.

The Bigger Picture: Following in the hoofsteps of Seabiscuit, this underdog horse tale chronicles the amazing journey of the 1973 Triple Crown winner. Wobbly Secretariat stumbles over a number of hurdles, though, notably Mike Rich's generic script, which trots out one cliché after another during its long gallop to the finish line.
Dressed in Mary Tyler Moore outfits and a stiff, Pat Nixon-like wig, Diane Lane portrays Denver housewife and mom Penny Chenery, who takes over her deceased dad's stables in Virginia. Despite her lack of horseracing knowledge, she bucks the male-dominated biz and invests in promising colt Big Red, later renamed Secretariat.
She hires veteran trainer Luicien Laurin (John Malkovich) to whip him into shape, and against all odds, they foster the first three-fer Winner in 25 years.
Hardcore racing fans might be disappointed by the film's focus on Penny's home life and investment woes, with banal family scenes involving her skeptical husband and war-protesting daughter. Plus, the film cuts corners on action sequences, depicting the stallion's mounting fame with a single slo-mo shot—and the penultimate race with stock footage on the Chenerys' TV.
Plus, don't expect any gritty portrait of the racing industry—Secretariat is as edgy as a Kentucky Derby bonnet. Scenes are awash in golden light and underscored with voiceover Bible quotes and gospel music. Holy cow, er, horse.
Lovely Lane rises above the cable-movie feel of the production but gets saddled with so many fist-clenching "we've-got-to-win!" speeches that you half expect her to exclaim, "As God as my witness, I'll never go hungry again!"
Not as winning, Malkovich continues his string of over-the-top character roles with a showy turn as the flamboyantly attired crankpot.
The 180—a Second Opinion: It's always good to see Scott Glenn (here as Penny's pa), and as a fun distraction, notice how much—in old-coot makeup—he looks like Lurch from The Addams Family.


Movie Review: Every Baby Movie Ever + Rom-Com Clichés = Life As We Know It!

Katherine Heigl, Josh Duhamel, Life As We Know ItPeter Iovino/Warner Bros. Entertainment
C-
Review in a Hurry: Goo goo gag gag. Katherine Heigl and Josh Duhamel star as bickering singles who become reluctant caregivers to an orphaned infant girl. Overly long Life has a few cutesy moments but is basically a rom-com genetically engineered by development execs.
TWITTER: Follow @eonlineMovies, 'K?
The Bigger Picture: As by-the-numbers as baby's first paint set. As formulaic as a nipple-bottle of Similac. As...well, you get the idea.
In a Battle of the Pepsodent Smiles, pretty caterer Holly (Heigl) and hunky network-sports director Eric (Duhamel) go on a disastrous blind date set up by mutual friends. The lady and the cad can't stand each other, so guess who's gonna be rocking the crib—and by "crib" I mean "bedroom"—before the movie's over.
When the aforementioned friends die in an accident, Holly and Eric learn they've both been named as guardians for goddaughter Sophie. So they attempt to put their differences aside and move into the dead couple's Atlanta home to raise the tiny toddler. Right...
What follows are regurgitated scenes from any baby movie: harried adults being puked on, changing poopy Pampers, feeding/bathing the fussy tot, struggling with strollers, etc.
Of course, Eric grows to love Holly and his new role as Sophie's dad. And Holly has to ultimately choose between romance with Eric—or with Dr. Right, handsome pediatrician Sam (Josh Lucas, showing off his natural Southern accent). Semi-spoiler alert: Can we please place a moratorium on eleventh-hour dashes to the airport?
Life is aimed at the Lifetime crowd, who will "Aww" at all the baby antics and swoon at all the shots of Duhamel putting on/taking off his shirt. The pic seriously overplays the man-candy jokes, with every straight woman and gay man drooling like newborns at the sight of him.
Yes, he and Heigl are easy on the eyes and generate a few sparks. But Life, with its steaming pile of plot contrivances and predictable gags, has all the freshness of a discarded diaper. 
The 180—a Second Opinion: Y'all, Melissa McCarthy is a hoot as a busybody belle with a dash of Sugarbaker-style sass. Speaking of, watch for a brief cameo by Designing Women's Jean Smart.

Movie Review: Karthik Calling Karthik

kthikrvwThe first rule of Fight Club is – you do not make an outdated movie. Wait, what? Lets back up a bit.While walking into the screening of ‘Karthik Calling Karthik’ my mobile phone rang, and a sneering, grating voice spoke: ‘This is Farhan speaking. I do know howto make an effective psychological thriller. I know I must keep viewers guessing, provide several solid jolts, and finally lead the awesome build up to a perfectly acceptable ending. Heck I could even add a few more twists to satisfy the die hardest of my fans. But not this time. Karthik forced me to make a bad film. He wants to kill my acting career. He said its for the greater good. So this time I will rob you in broad daylight. This time I annoy you with unintentional comedy. You Are Finished! FINISHED!’
At exactly five in the morning, for reasons I can only share with Vijay Lalwani I woke up and began writing this review. Farhan Akhtar produced and stars in this generally lunatic, occasionally pathetic and more often comically inept endeavor. ‘Karthik Calling Karthik’ isn’t a film, it’s a catalog of cliched dialogue. Its a boring, formulaic mix of psycho babble and Wikipedia recitation. The only element of suspense is whether the movie will show the trailer of ‘Housefull’ before the closing credits roll.
The biggest disappointment is that ‘Karthik Calling Karthik’ does open with its mind nicely intact, but suffers a major crisis about 40 minutes in, then bad turns to worse. Although the first part of ‘Karthik Calling Karthik’ overflows with delicious suspense and atmosphere, the film’s plot soon becomes its helpless protagonist. What we get is a profoundly stupid affair, that populates its hackneyed and obsolete storyline with cardboard characters and performers who value cash above credibility. Nothing is as it seems, because nothing matters in the least.
The dark, rainswept scene between Farhan and Deepika near the Bandra Worli sea link after the interval assures you that the storyline has indeed turned into a lame-brained nut job in desperate search of a different plot twist. The dense rain that falls is no natural rain, it’s runoff from world cinema’s bilge tank of recycled ideas. The characters are as poorly developed as the concept. A doctor (Shefali Shah) arrives at Karthik’s home to figure out the mystery behind the call, but runs away. Then Shonali (Deepika) arrives at Karthik’s home for the same, only to run away. The outlandishness of it all makes you want to make a dash for it as well. And because you can’t bear to think that Farhan would betray us, you keep trying to convince yourself that ‘Karthik Calling Karthik’ is trying to be more than what it seems.
Performances veer from outstanding to wooden. Its heartbreaking to see the incredibly versatile Farhan in this film – his gait, his range and finer nuances are commendable. Deepika looks hot – her acting’s not. Her dialogue delivery is deadpan, while her expressions are nonexistent. Vijay Lalwani’s direction suffers due to his own unimaginative script. The cinematography by Sanu Varghese is top notch, and SEL’s excellent music goes well with Midival Punditz & Karsh Kale’s snappy background score. However, the film’s merits are crushed by the pressure of the story’s big revelation (or the lack of it) which makes you feel totally cheated.
Final verdict? When some people talk about how much they hated 2005’s Tamil film ‘Anniyan’ for being unreasonably unviable, I think they must mean this film.

Hum Tum Aur Confusion

Cast:Arshad Warsi,Diya mirza,Boman Irani .
Director: Kabir Kaushik
Rating:2/5Review
Arshad Warsi (Armaan) is a high flying photographer whose personal life is in the doldrums. Due to his penchant for the bottle he’s about to mess up both his personal and professional life. His girlfriend Gehna (Dia Mirza) vacillates between loving him intensely or wanting to dump him and move on in life. Because his alcoholism isn’t the real problem! Arshad is seeing a psychiatrist as he hears voices all the time especially at home when he’s alone. So he drinks himself silly, sleeps at railway stations only to run away from the sound of these voices.But nothing seems to work. Till one day Arshad is convinced that he can actually communicate with souls who haven’t become angels. Souls who are spiralling the earth because they have some unfinished business to be taken care of! His doctor is convinced it’s schizophrenia. Dia is torn between wanting to believe the doctor or trusting her instincts….
The first half of the film retains a light peppy mood despite the seriousness of the situation. Most of the outdoors have been shot in London  and the film has an interesting look and feel to it. Zippy cars, great cafes, a fantastic duplex apartment all succeed in imparting the film with a happy look.
Arshad has his capable assistant Sandhya Mridul (Mini) to take care of him while he is at work. Sandhya Mridul may not have much work but she does take good care of her body. She brings the same energy onto the screen that she has in her earlier films Page 3 andHoneymoon Travels Private Limited.
Dia is the surprise package of the film. She has shed oodles of weight and might just be successful in making a transition from being a supporting actress to becoming a leading lady. Arshad thankfully has distanced himself from his ‘circuit’ personality. His performance especially in the first half is restrained rather than overplayed.
Boman Irani tries very hard, but his character doesn’t have any dialogues or scenes which make an impact. Such a pity because in the right role this versatile actor has the audience eating out of his hand!
Ashwin Mushran the ruthless son from Lage Raho Munnabhai (who dumps his father into an old age home) is back and he plays a similar character all over gain.
The plot contradicts itself. On one hand ghosts are people who know instinctively what is happening on earth, and on the other handArshad is asked to locate people who disappeared 30 years ago.
It’s in the second half that the director gets the genre totally confused. The film suddenly turns into a tearjerker. Agreed Arshad only wishes to help people who are in a genuine crisis. But did it have to be so melodramatic?
The film is short but the climax could have been far shorter. It seems stretched and contrived and Arshad hams it up especially towards the end.
Apart from being the producer, Arshad is also one of the co-writers ofthe film. The premise of the film has its heart in the right place. But the script doesn’t evolve from one scene to the other. It resembles a car that lurches forward again and again moving a few feet ahead before it comes to a slow and agonizing halt.
The music is by Shankar Ehsaan Loy  and lyrics by Javed Akhtar. Yet not a single line remains with you as you leave the auditorium.

Phoonk 2: Movie Review

Ram Gopal Varma seems to be hell-bent to break his own records. When we were convinced that horror films can’t get horrible than Agyaat, RGV clears our misconception with Phoonk 2. In this horrendous attempt, Ramu pays a homage to all his earlier made horror flicks, extends the tribute to Ramsay mould of face horror and ends it on the note of (believe it or faint) his arch rival Karan Johar’s template of tearjerkers.There is absolutely no regards to the story and the focus is merely on resorting to as much technical gimmickry as possible from standard sound effects, shocking shot-takings and gyrating camera movements. To get the dead of the prequel, back to life is the most lifeless way to start a sequel and Phoonk 2 does exactly that.
The story starts on the same old grounds of a family shifting to a new bungalow which is haunted. Rajiv (Sudeep) and Aarti (Amruta Khanvilkar) venture into new verandah with the premise(s) not being much different from RGV’s Vaastu Shastra. Their kids get home a doll they find in the woods but scaring through such plastic faces in present times is no child’s play. Further a couple runs helter-skelter through jungle as if they have seen Ramu’s Agyaat. Finally the filmmaker seeks the spirit from Bhoot as Aarti is possessed by the ghost of Madhu (Ashwini Kalsekar) who was killed in the prequel.
An owl-eyed exorcist (Jeeva) is added for no good reason. Amidst most predictable proceedings a wife wakes up from nightmares screaming ‘koi hai… koi hai’ and the husband keeps repeating ‘just relax… just relax’. The concluding reels are a tiresome hide-and-seek game between the ghost and the gharwale where a white-faced, white-eyed banshee follows every family member walking in robotic steps like Ramsay’s zombies.
Suddenly the family starts mourning on the death of their female head and after ten minutes of this emotional trauma, the end credits roll. And you keep wondering… What happened to the evil? What happened to good ole Ram Gopal Varma? What happened to the basic cinematic belief of victory of good over evil? If the makers want to extent the answers in another sequel, that thought is scarier than this entire film.
Phoonk 2 could win an award for the most long-drawn-out sequences ever with practically nothing happening in most of the scenes. The lethargic pace doesn’t add to the effect but only tests your patience levels. Milind Gadagkar’s screenplay is as much disappointing as much as his direction. He tries to tune himself in Ram Gopal Varma’s technique of horror-thrillers but sadly RGV has become so repetitive that he no more seems to be a trendsetter. Gadagkar employs every cliché from spooky dream sequences, unreflecting mirrors, blood-gore to face horror but fails to impress with his lack of innovation. The only residual redeeming scenes include minced-murder of a domestic help, a kitchen-sequence and termination of the tantric.
Sudeep just repeats his act from the first part. Amruta Khanvilkar was better off without the plastic makeup. Ashwini Kalsekar could have been used to more spooky effect. Child actor Ahsaas Channa doesn’t get much scope this time. Neeru Bajwa and Amit Sadh are wasted.Phoonk 2 literally blows things out of proportion. Watching this film is like indulging in two hours of foreplay with no sex.

Kites Movie Review

Kites Album
Director :Anurag Basu,
Music :Rajesh Roshan,
Lyrics :Nasir Faraaz and Asif Ali Beg,
Starring : Hrithik Roshan, Barbara Mori and Kangna Ranaut ,
Producer:Hrithik Roshan,
Story: For over a year now, the Roshans have been drumming up a steady beat, a feat unheard of in the film industry, in promoting their home production Kites. Be it the Barbara Mori-Hrithik Roshankiss that almost put paid to his marriage with Suzanne, or the ailments suffered by directorAnurag Basu and Barbara Mori, which bonded them on the sets or any such trivia they could get their hands on. Topmost being the Barbara-Hrithik romance/chemistry/escapades. All I believe, well choreographed by their PR machinery to feed the hungry media always on the overdrive to be the ‘first’ to get the ’scoop’.So why am I beginning a review with the Roshan’s PR strategy? Well, to begin with, this film does warrant this type of a scrutiny considering the moolah pumped in for PR, marketing, and the fact the that this is Hrithik’s major release after two years. JODHAA AKBAR being his last if you discount his guest appearance in LUCK BY CHANCE. Everything for Hrithik hinged on KITES and he put every ounce of his creative energy in the promotion.
So is the PR strategy a success? You bet. Considering the people that thronged to watch the paid previews. Hrithik is a top draw and he does not disappoint once he gets his audience settled in their seats. KITES is a complete entertainer, a first of its kind in Bollywood; a multi-lingual film in Hindi-English and a spattering of Spanish. However, this film may find it hard to penetrate the interiors precisely for this reason.But for now, let’s celebrate KITES.The story is uncomplicated. J (Hrithik) is a dance teacher with an eye on making a quick buck. Almost nine marriages later, with immigrants wanting a Green Card, he is stalked by Gina (Kangana Ranaut) a psycho who is besotted by him. J is freaked but soon realizes that she is his jackpot. Natasha (Barbara Mori) is one of his ‘brides’ who is now marrying Tony (Nick Brown), Gina’s brother. Their father is an influential businessman who fronts a famous casino in the US of A. They have the entire state machinery in their pockets. Rub them the wrong way at your own risk.
Here is where a deliciously terrifying thunderbolt of love strikes. Both Hrithik and Barbara look good together and put in super performances. Hrithik, first gets to display his dance, then romance and finally, fury. What more can you want? At least it’s not a brainless entertainer.Basu uses camera movements to highlight emotions to telling effect. In one scene, where J and Natasha are getting passionate, the camera lingers on her family portrait and she immediately backs off. Her poverty is powerfully driven home and the marriage she is getting into for money’s sake. The editing is sharp, getting back to ‘cut’ after a flashback scene. It’s a seamless flow of action, dance and drama. Speaking about action, the scenes are top-notch, on par with the best in Hollywood.
Apart from Hrithik and Barbara, who makes the cut, Nick Brown puts in a power performance as the ‘crazy’ casino owner who will not spare anyone who crosses his path. Kangana as the psycho is perfect while Kabir Bedi is judiciously used. The music changes mood to the feel of the scenes from Wild West to simply bollywood.At the start, Hrithik’s voice-over explains the reasoning of KITES. In the end, you see the allegory.KITES is a business module for anyone wanting to invest in movies and hit the jackpot. Provided they also get their PR machinery in place, almost a year before the release.

Rajneeti movie review

Rajneeti-Movie
Raajneeti hindi movie
Raajneeti Movie Director: Prakash Jha
Raajneeti Movie Actors: Ranbir Kapoor, Katrina Kaif, Arjun Rampal, Ajay Devgn, Manoj Bajpayee
Raajneeti Movie producer:Prakash Jha
Well we dont need to mention that this film Rajneeti movie is all about Politics as movie title says all. Rajneeti movie rotates around those people who run the system of a country. The movie Rajneeti depicts that these people are responsible for all goods and bads in the country.
Rajneeti movie tells us that how the politicians in the third-world countries, destroys the whole system of our whole country to get their dirty aims. One of the characters is Bhaskar Sanyal (Naseeruddin Shah) who is a prominent leader and bold enough to face opposition but he is too like other selfish politicians.
Raajneeti movie is most awaited movie of this year. Raajneeti movie star cast is very big like Ranbir Kapoor, Katrina Kaif, Arjun Rampal, Ajay Devgn, Manoj Bajpayee are playing important role in this movie. Raajneeti hindi bollywood movie has released today in all theaters.
In Raajneeti movie Ranbir Kapoor is playing younger brother of ArjunRampal in this movie, plays what ready-made cricket commentators would call a “cool customer”. He has a life beyond his straightaway family. The boy role who play Ranbir Kapoor is least interested in his politics business and he is settled with a girlfriend abroad. He were it not for a tragic circumstance, he could continue with his innately quiet, private life.
Arjun Rampal plays a elder brother of Ranbir kapoor in this rajneeti movie. Arjun Rampal plays a role if fully enmeshed in the intricacies of his family’s murky trade, is the mercurial dude; given to violent outbursts; his ego, quite easy to prick.
These two brothers Samar and Prithviraj (Arjun Rampal and Ranbir kapoor) could well be Michael (Al Pacino) and Sonny (James Caan) from the Corleone family in Godfather. Or, their equations may as much match the ‘80s siblings Rajiv (reserved), and Sanjay (rabid), from the Gandhi dynasty.
After his father’s blackwash, Samar – Ranbir kapoor slips in like a fish into his family’s dirty pond. This transition appears too hastily unexplained for someone who’d been pursuing for years a PhD in Victorian literature before this. Bloodlines in this Rajput family tree are too complicated to recount. Suffice it to know, for simplicity’s sake, the conflict is roughly over who’s the heir to a political legacy: the eldest son (Manoj Bajpayee); or the younger brother and, given such a situation’s arisen, his progenies (Prithviraj, Samar).
The latter also share a step-brother (Ajay Devgn), a locally popular Dalit youth leader. But no one knows this yet. He’s Karn from the Mahabharat, picked up and elevated in the rival Kaurav camp. His birth also honours a popular Bollywood tradition: random one-night stands inevitably lead to instant pregnancies.

Nana Patekar, the Krishna like figure, controls from the backroom. In rajneeti, or politics, he says, “Faisle sahi ya ghalat nahin hote. Unka mol toh maksad poora karne ke liye hota hai. Chahe jaise bhi ho. (Decisions taken are never right or wrong. Their worth is restricted to meeting an immediate end: by hook, or by crook).”
All the actors in rajneeti movie like Ranbir kapoor, Arjun Rampal,Katrina Kaif, Ajay Devgn, Naseeruddin Shah and Manoj Bajpayee others have done fantastic acting, so we would prefer to watch rajneeti movie.
Well in the end we can tell this movie is really worth to watch so do not search to watch rajneeti movie online but enjoy this really good rajneeti movie with your friends and family at this weekend. You can also express your views on Rajneeti movie in below comment box.

Story of Ek Second-Jo Zindagi Badal De:
Ek Second Jo Zindagi Badal De Movie Review
‘Ek Second-Jo Zindagi Badal De’ story is of a girl whose name is Rashi. Despite being her name ‘Rashi’ she herself is unaware of what is in her destiny. There is one proverb which tells that whatever is written in one’s destiny in some way or other the incidents actually occur. But if we fight against it and make the incident happen in a different way – then what will happen?
The biggest quarry of entrap of destiny is happened to be Mr. Vikram Sehgal who is India’s famous novelist and had an affair with many girls in life. At present, he is engaged with Rashi but she was unaware of all those girls who were present in Vikram’s life. Both of them are soon getting married. After that, destiny played a game and incidents change. Rashi worked as a creative head in a very big company. At that very same day she lost her job when she stepped out of her house to go to office. She arrived at the metro station tired and exhausted where she missed the train. Now, she has to wait for few hours.
Ek Second Jo Zindagi Badal De trailer
Now onwards, the story is divided into two parts. First part describes that Rashi was unable to catch the train and comes outs of the metro station. Outside of the station robber snatches her purse and she gets hurt. A taxi driver takes her to the hospital for treatment. This all was actually written in her destiny.
Second part describes Rashi catches the train where she meets with person named Oni Parker who is fun loving, joyful and kind hearted person. She reaches Vikram’s house and catches Vikram with his girlfriend Tamanna. Both argue with each other and Rashi breaks off the relationship eternally and goes away.
